Variable interpolation and formatting strings for Scala

Scala Enhanced Strings - A Scala compiler plugin for string interpolation and more

Note: this project has been superseded by Scala's string interpolation support

See http://jrudolph.github.com/scala-enhanced-strings for the old documentation.

scala-enhanced-strings's Issues

Handle triple-quoted strings with 'stripMargin' feature

I like to use Scala's .stripMargin method to make my triple-quoted strings more readable, like this:

val s = """Hi 
          |there
          |this
          |is a long String!""".stripMargin

But SES doesn't like it, complaining "error: string matching regex \z' expected but|' found".

Maven repository down?

http://mvn.virtual-void.net returns "test"; http://mvn.virtual-void.net/net/virtualvoid/scala-enhanced-strings_2.9.0-1/0.5.1/scala-enhanced-strings_2.9.0-1-0.5.1.jar is 404, etc.

Add global setting to enable enhanced strings for all sources

Use scala macros instead of a compiler plugin

string interpolation for scala 2.9?

The biggest pain when backporting to 2.9 is (often trivial) use of string interpolation. If your syntax took dollars instead of hashes, would this be able to help out?
