That's a possibility. I'm using print statements right now, but I'm
trying to come up with a solution for my end-users that looks as much
as possible like the input files they are used to. I wonder what will
confuse them more, an extra variable in the format statement, or lots
of print and/or printf statements.

Thanks!

Use a templating module, see CPAN. Or format your scalars with sprintf
and use a <<HERE document.

Hmmmm... in the spirit of the endless quibble, shouldn't the punctuation
operator lead, as in:

!one Good

:-)

If I remember correctly there have been previous discussions about
format() and the general consensus was to use printf() instead, AFAIR
because printf() is easier to use and has less problems than format().
