Idea

The package was designed with the idea of having the ability to create a short text on a changeable template with ease-replaceable tags inside it by using primitive wrapper objects(exactly the string object), which primitive value is immutable. These objects were built as general objects with intuitive names, unique and most important features of their names, and in a simple ease-extendable form. Objects can be used as the types, which in combination with generic type variables results in precise functional type and the advantage of this approach is functionality follows the type.

Elements

Let's deep dive into the elements of the text package. From the bottom of the build hierarchy, there's a Wrap string object that represents a two-character wrap with its main ability to wrap a specified text. This wrap result in a wrapped text of a string type.

To create a Wrap object there is a need to use a new operator, and in addition to this, there's an object Wrapper, which helps create it with predefined allowed characters and also wrap the specified text with the use of predefined Wrap. So, it is simply a configurable "machine" to build a wrap in a restricted range of characters.

Of course, the Wrap object gives a possibility to create a new object with additional features by simply extending it. And by this way string object named Tag was created with its main ability to build a tag of a specified name and wrap(e.g. like an HTML tag), which is used to tag a specified text with an opening tag and an automatically created the closing tag.

The last two in the build hierarchy are respectively the Template and Text, where the first is a string object that contains tags and its equivalent Tag objects, and the second is an object consisting of string text and string object Template to replace the tags with real words.
