String Format To Concatenation Converter

Usage:

1. Copy the entire String.format() and it's contents to your clipboard.
2. Run ruby string_format_to_concat.rb.
3. The output is pasted to your clipboard.

Description: Android Studio doesn't have a refactor tool to convert String.format() calls to their concatenated form.
E.g.

String.format("The manifest does not define the %s permission.", applicationMessagePermission)
=>
"The manifest does not define the " + applicationMessagePermission + " permission."
