replaceSettings
public static java.lang.String replaceSettings(java.lang.String input)
Replace all settings variables with their values.
This function takes the input string and looks for all
settings that are embedded in the string and replaces those
settings with the value of that setting. E.g., given
a string "The survey is $survey and the scale is $scale."
the method will look for the settings survey and scale
and in the global Settings and replace these substrings
with their current values. E.g., the previous might return
with "The survey is Digitized Sky Survey and the scale is 0.00133."
If a setting has multiple values, only the first is used.
If no value is found for the setting, then the text is
left unchanged.
