Some notational convenience for formatting strings

We can now write

  throw Error("file '%s' not found", path);

instead of

  throw Error(format("file '%s' not found") % path);

and similarly

  printError("file '%s' not found", path);

instead of

  printMsg(lvlError, format("file '%s' not found") % path);
