/**
	Class for replacing numbered tokens in Strings with other Strings.  The
	static methods can be used for working with passed-in String arguments.
	Use the non-static methods for working with <i>indirect</i> Strings.
	I.e. String keys are passed in which in turn are used to locate the actual
	String to substitute.  The class in that case is instantiated by passing in 
	a IStringSource object which is used for fetching Strings.
	<p>The token format is <b>{#}</b>.  Where <b>#</b> is 1-9.  <b>Note that the 
	numbering is one-based, not zero-based.</b>  E.g.
	<p><code>MessageFormatter.format("Hello {1}, how are {2}?", "Carbon-based Lifeform", "you");</code>
