DESCRIPTION

14       The Template Toolkit is a collection of Perl modules which implement a
15       fast, flexible, powerful and extensible template processing system.
16
17       It was originally designed and remains primarily useful for generating
18       dynamic web content.  Howver it can be used equally well for processing
19       any other kind of text based documents including HTML, XML, POD, Post‐
20       Script, LaTeX and plain old text.
21
22       The Template::Manual documentation contains further information about
23       the Template Toolkit and a full reference of all the features, direc‐
24       tives, configuration options and so on.
25
26           $ perldoc Template::Manual
27
28       The Template module is the front-end to the Template Toolkit for Perl
29       programmers.  The documentation for that module relates specifically to
30       using the module from Perl programs.
31
32           $ perldoc Template
33
34       Please note that there is no Template::Toolkit Perl module, just this
35       documentation pointing people to the right place.
36
37       You're welcome to refer to TT as "Template Toolkit" or "Template::Tool‐
38       kit" if you prefer.  The official line is that we talk about the "Tem‐
39       plate Toolkit" software and the "Template" Perl module.  But we're not
40       the kind of officials who would get all official on you.
41
42       You don't need to be a Perl programmer to use the Template Toolkit.
43       The tpage and ttree scripts allow you to process templates from the
44       command line.  See the documentation for those scripts for further
45       information.
46
47           $ perldoc tpage
48           $ perldoc ttree
49
50       Finally, don't forget to check out the Template Toolkit web site.
51
52           http://template-toolkit.org/
53
54       Yes, we know it doesn't look very pretty and should use CSS instead of
55       tables for layout.  We'll have a shiny new web site when TT3 is
56       released.  In case you're wondering, that'll be on Tuesday some time
57       shortly after lunch...
