TMPLZ

Recursive, Non-intrusive templates.

Rules

• A Template can be defined on its own or in a group with others.
  • Templates defined together can reference each other.
• Unused Variables are assumed to be literals.
• A Variable clause begins with a Prefix(e.g. @).
  • A Variable clause may terminate with a Suffix(e.g. _).
  • Additional Prefixes increase the "depth" of the Variable.
  • Suffixes within a Variable can be used to escape the "depth".
• Use Prefixes and Suffixes to create a Variable Graph.

Examples

All examples explicitly include the suffix even when it can be ignored. (Optional suffixes denoted ‗)

0. Zero Variables:
   • @ by itself is not a variable.
   • @_ evaluates to _.
1. One Variable:
   • A standard template variable: @solo‗ -> {@solo_}.
2. Two Variables:
   • Two standard variables one after the other: @one_@two‗ -> {@one_}{@two_}.
     • Assigning one does not affect the other.
   • A variable with a sub-variable: @one@two‗‗ -> {@one@two__{@two_}}.
     • Neither @one nor @one@two can be assigned to.
     • You must first assign @two and that will set the actual name of @one@two.
       • e.g. ["two" -> "123"] then @one@two__ becomes @one123_.
