Using a second colon would make ternary expressions slightly awkward; C# handles this by requiring them to be parenthesised, so "{$:( $test ? $x : $y )}" would be valid but "{$:$test ? $x : $y}" would not; we could use some other delimiter, but they'd probably all need something similar.Thinking about it, a second colon might also cause problems for expressions like "{$: Foo::bar() }", so since we have multiple symbols at the start anyway, how about a prefixed formatting argument, e.g. "{$%10.3f: $x }" Regards, -- Rowan Tommins [IMSoP]
