# interpolate!
s = I('Joe has $ ', a, ' in his pocket.')
or perhaps
# print-like interpolation
s = P('Joe has $', a, 'in his pocket.')
works pretty well too. in all versions of python, with all existing
syntax-aware tools. and if written in C, it's probably as fast as
any other solution...
(implementing I/P is left as an exercise etc etc)
