Subject: [PATCH] Support Debian stable python version 2.5 (at least)

Support str.format() (new in 2.6) as well as % (modulo) operator for string formatting. This enhances the compatibility of the script with earlier version of python (such as python 2.5 which is the current Debian's python interpreter).
