Any token of the form @item_name

[%width] or @{item_name[%width]} is replaced by the value of the

corresponding data item from the supplied event, if it is present. item_name is the name of the item stored

integer number specifying the size of the value stored in item_name . The item_name is the name of a stan-

dard event data item. The special string
