<p>Substitutes the values for the parameter name placeholders in the template to create the human readable error message</p>
<p>Placeholders are surrounded by % signs: example% Poor man's version of boost::format</p>
<p>If a parameter name is absent, perform default substitutions instead so ugly placeholders are never left in-place.</p>
<p>Options are displayed in "canonical" form This is the most unambiguous form of the <span class="emphasis"><em>parsed</em></span> option name and would correspond to option_description::format_name() i.e. what is shown by print_usage()</p>
<p>The "canonical" form depends on whether the option is specified in short or long form, using dashes or slashes or without a prefix (from a configuration file) </p>
