These are just ideas, though.
In my development version, I now have this working! That is, you can do:
std::cout << io::object ( std::make_pair( 'a', 5 ), "{ " + fmt::pair()/" == " + " }" ) << '\n'; // output: { a == 5 }
Great. I wonder what others think? Personally, I really like the / operator. Probably that's because I've borrowed the idea from one parser generator which allows to write: (literal / "," ) to mean a list of literals separated by ",". The opening and closing braces look less clear for me now. Maybe, we can use fmt::pair("{", "}")/" == " or fmt::braces("{", "}") + fmt::pair()/" == " But I'm really really not sure. - Volodya
