NAME
       stemgine  - simple template engine



DESCRIPTION
       stemgine  is  a  very simple, flexible and powerful template engine. It simply evaluates template files as shell code, thus replacing shell vari-
       ables with the ones present in the environment.



SECURITY
       Since the content of the templates is written using eval and echo, you have to make sure that no one can inject code into  your  template  files.
       However, this should be the default configuration of umask.



BACKEND
       Template file
              Regular text file. Contents are evaluated using echo so one can use all those nice shell features like variables, backticks (and hence all
              your cli programs) and so on.

              Example:

              // $PROJECT-$VERSION (C) $YEARS $AUTHORS


       TEMPLATE_DIR
              Contains template files. Each file is in a subdirectory named after the file extension.

              Example:

              template
              |-- cxx
              |   |-- isc.cxx
              |   `-- wtfpl.cxx
              `-- sh
                  `-- wtfpl.sh


       ~/.stemginerc
              Configuration file, must contain path to template directory in sh syntax.

              Example:

              TEMPLATE_DIR="$HOME/templates"
