Hi,

every few months I see another Python template processor being
announced, which is when I quickly conclude: nice, but Preppy
is just as good, if not better (although it's an extremely low
profile and well-hidden tool):

A few days ago I've seen "empy" being announced on c.l.p.a. and
I was determined to reproduce the same experience again. But in
vain! This is a really interesting, feature-rich and very nicely
documented template processor! And, the author wrote it to heal
his own pains accumulated from using m4 excessively:

Definitly worth a look!

Regards,

Dinu
