Signature

(format-message STRING &rest OBJECTS)

Documentation

Format a string out of a format-string and arguments.

The first argument is a format control string. The other arguments are substituted into it to make the result, a string.

This acts like format, except it also replaces each grave accent (`) by a left quote, and each apostrophe (') by a right quote. The left and right quote replacement characters are specified by text-quoting-style(var)/text-quoting-style(fun).
