     1.4 +This is a library for generating form letters, building HTML pages,
     1.5 +or filling in templates generally.
     1.6 +A "template" is a piece of text that has little Perl programs embedded
     1.7 +in it here and there.
     1.8 +When you "fill in" a template, you evaluate the little programs and
     1.9 +replace them with their values.
    1.10 +
    1.11 +You can store a template in a file outside your program.
    1.12 +People can modify the template without modifying the program.
    1.13 +You can separate the formatting details from the main code, and put
    1.14 +the formatting parts of the program into the template.
    1.15 +That prevents code bloat and encourages functional separation.
