    - #### translateVariables

          public static String translateVariables(String expression,
                                  ValueStack stack)

      Converts all instances of ${...}, and %{...} in `expression` to the value returned by a call to `ValueStack.findValue(java.lang.String)`. If an item cannot be found on the stack (null is returned), then the entire variable ${...} is not displayed, just as if the item was on the stack but returned an empty string.
      Parameters:
        `expression` - an expression that hasn't yet been translated
        `stack` - value stack
      Returns:
        the parsed expression

    - #### translateVariables

          public static String translateVariables(String expression,
                                  ValueStack stack,
                                  TextParseUtil.ParsedValueEvaluator evaluator)

      Function similarly as `translateVariables(char, String, ValueStack)` except for the introduction of an additional `evaluator` that allows the parsed value to be evaluated by the `evaluator`. The `evaluator` could be null, if it is it will just be skipped as if it is just calling `translateVariables(char, String, ValueStack)`.
      A typical use-case would be when we need to URL Encode the parsed value. To do so we could just supply a URLEncodingEvaluator for example.
      Parameters:
        `expression` - expression string
        `stack` - value stack
        `evaluator` - The parsed Value evaluator (could be null).
      Returns:
        the parsed (and possibly evaluated) variable String.

    - #### translateVariables

          public static String translateVariables(char open,
                                  String expression,
                                  ValueStack stack)

      Converts all instances of ${...} in `expression` to the value returned by a call to `ValueStack.findValue(java.lang.String)`. If an item cannot be found on the stack (null is returned), then the entire variable ${...} is not displayed, just as if the item was on the stack but returned an empty string.
      Parameters:
        `open` - open character
        `expression` - expression string
        `stack` - value stack
      Returns:
        Translated variable String
