I have a file where I used a lot of {0}, {1} and {2}. Most but not all are changed to {0:.3E}, {1:.3E} and {2:.3E}. But when I want to change the format I come in dependency hell.
I could do something like: format = ':.3E' fmt0 = '{0' + format + '} fmt1 = '{1' + format + '} fmt2 = '{2' + format + '} and replace occurrences of: 'before {0} after' with: 'before ' + fmt0 + ' after' But that does not really make me happy.
