Subject: [ANN]: PageTemplate 1.1

Hi all,

I've released PageTemplate 1.1. Now with a new 'include' command, so
you can insert content from external files.

    * http://rubyforge.org/projects/pagetemplate/
    * http://coolnamehere.com/products/pagetemplate/

PageTemplate is a Ruby package which allows you to utilize text
templates for your Web projects. It is mainly intended for use in a
CGI environment, but has been designed to be useful in a broad range
of similar applications. It is inspired by, yet almost entirely
unlike, the HTML::Template package available for Perl. It has a few
features that I hope folks will find useful:

    * Variable substitution
    * "if/else" blocks - inserting chunks of content depending on the
existence of a flag variable
    * "loop/no" blocks - repeatedly inserting a chunk of content,
using values from a list
    * A simple default syntax
    * Customizable markup syntax (awkward, but it's there)
    * Cache template information to disk to speed up access (experimental!)
    * New! The ability to include external files (Added in 1.1)

It also has a few features of its own (otherwise, where's the fun?).

    * Customizable markup syntax to simplify integration with your own tools.
    * Cache template information to disk to speed up access (experimental!)

I hope folks like it!

Kind Regards,
