 Something like this ?

svg% ri String#%
--------------------------------------------------------------- String#%
     str % arg -> aString
------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Format---Uses str as a format specification, and returns the result
     of applying it to arg. If the format specification contains more
     than one substitution, then arg must be an Array containing the
     values to be substituted. See Kernel::sprintf on page 427 for
     details of the format string.
        "%05d" % 123                       #=> "00123"
        "%-5s: %08x" % [ "ID", self.id ]   #=> "ID   : 200e0648"
