I am curious about this regexp, \b is matching word/non-word boundary -- so
I had to test it.

(replace-regexp-in-string "\\b%t\\b" "repl" "foo %t bar") ;; no replacement
(replace-regexp-in-string "\\b%t\\b" "repl" "foo-%t-bar") ;; no replacement
...
(replace-regexp-in-string "\\b%t\\b" "repl" "foox%t-bar") ;; replacement!

before % there is "word" character and after t there is "non-word" character.

I wonder whether that works... (or is it just something I don't
understand)..

Also tried (format-spec "foo-%t-bar" '((?t . "repl"))) ;; which works as
I'd expect.
