It has been a long time wish of mine to have custom formats for sprintf, until I was told I could try to write a module for it. After some thinking, I settled on the basic API, and wrote the basic functionality in a module of about 25 lines. I'm loving it! I'm going to put it on CPAN (my first upload! Though I have plenty in the fridge...), and Corion has promised me he'll lend me a hand, guiding me through the motions the first time. Probably sometime this week.
I'm still thinking on how to best add support for strftime, too.

I've seen it. It mixes formats with data. Uh!Re:String::Format

Yes, just like sprintf() mixes formats with data. Isn't that the whole point?
