template

=head1 Description

Simple templating system for source files.
This program allows you to generate various files based on simple
templates.  For example, you could generate a basic Perl skeleton
with your name, email and other information automatically filled in.

=head2 Predefined variables

There are currently several predefined variables defined for
template. Variable names exist only of printable characters (that is
a-z, 0-9, '.' and '_') and are wrapped with a leading and trailing
percentage sign (%).

=head3 %name%, %nick%, %company%, %email%

These variables are set upon the first time you run template. It will
expand to your name, nickname, company and email-address.

=head3 %filename%

This variable will expand to the full filename of the output file,
that is, with extension.
=head3 %base_filename%

This variable will be replaced with the base name of the output
filename (e.g.  without extension(s)). This could be useful, for
example, when you want to generate Java or C++ class files.

=head2 Adding variables

You can add your own variables by simply inserting them into your
templates.  Remember to embed them inside two percentage signs! If
the program comes across a variable it doesn't know, it will prompt
you for a value before continuing.

=head1 Templates

In principal every file can act as template file. The only
restriction is that the extension ends in C<.tpl>. An example for a
template providing a basic Perl snippet skeleton would look like
this:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
