MessageFormat 0.1.3

PHP has it. Java has it. Even JavaScript has it. It's time .NET joined in with support for the ICU Message Format.

How would you format "He found 1 result in 4 categories", or "She found 3 results in 1 category" without bloating your code with a billion if-statements? And when you have to translate it, then what?

How about something like:

var pattern = @"{Gender, select,
 male {He}
 female {She}
 other {They}
} found {ResultCount, plural,
  zero {no results}
  one {one result}
  other {# results}
} in {CategoryCount, plural,
  zero {0 categories}
  one {one category}
  other {# categories}
}.";

var mf = new MessageFormatter();
var result = mf.FormatMessage(pattern, new {
 Gender = "male",
 ResultsCount = 3,
 CategoriesCount = 1
});
