Use [Measure] values in keys throughout skin. #98

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
STRING meters are able to display measures dynamically with the "%1, %2,
%3" syntax. However, these are arbitrarily limited to one key (Text), and
they must refer to the measure indirectly through another key (MeasureName).

Suggestion: change this syntax to refer to the measure value directly
("[MeasureX]" instead of "%1", without going through MeasureName), and
allow it to be used in any other key below the [Measure] section itself.

Examples:

X=[MeasureX]
Substitute="Phrase":"[MeasureSubstitute]"
TimeZone=[MeasureTimeZone]
