// This simple utility class assists in code generation.  It basically
// allows the caller to define a set of variables and then output some
// text with variable substitutions.  Example usage:
//
//   Printer printer(output, '$');
//   map<string, string> vars;
//   vars["name"] = "Bob";
//   printer.Print(vars, "My name is $name$.");
//
// The above writes "My name is Bob." to the output stream.
//
// Printer aggressively enforces correct usage, crashing (with assert failures)
// in the case of undefined variables.  This helps greatly in debugging code
// which uses it.  This class is not intended to be used by production servers.
