fmt-ptrn - A simple template system

Website: http://www.flyn.org
License: GPLv2+
Vendor: Fedora Project
Description:
New is a template system, especially useful in conjunction with a
simple text editor such as vi. The user maintains templates which
may contain format strings. At run time, nf replaces the format
strings in a template with appropriate values to create a new file.

For example, given the following template:


//   FILE: %(FILE)
// AUTHOR: %(FULLNAME)
//   DATE: %(DATE)

// Copyright (C) 1999 %(FULLNAME) %(EMAIL)
// All rights reserved.
nf will create:


//   FILE: foo.cpp
// AUTHOR: W. Michael Petullo
//   DATE: 11 September 1999

// Copyright (C) 1999 W. Michael Petullo new@flyn.org
// All rights reserved.
on my computer.

The program understands plaintext or gziped template files.

Building fmt-ptrn also creates a shared library, libnewtemplate, which
allows the programmer access to nf's functionality.
