+Text::Template v1.46
+
+This is a library for generating form letters, building HTML pages, or
+filling in templates generally.  A `template' is a piece of text that
+has little Perl programs embedded in it here and there.  When you
+`fill in' a template, you evaluate the little programs and replace
+them with their values.  
+
+Here's an example of a template:
+
+	Dear {$title} {$lastname},
+
+	It has come to our attention that you are delinquent in your
+	{$monthname[$last_paid_month]} payment.  Please remit
+	${sprintf("%.2f", $amount)} immediately, or your patellae may
+	be needlessly endangered.
+
+			Love,
+
+			Mark "{nickname(rand 20)}" Dominus
+
+
+The result of filling in this template is a string, which might look
+something like this:
+
+	Dear Mr. Gates,
+
+	It has come to our attention that you are delinquent in your
+	February payment.  Please remit
+	$392.12 immediately, or your patellae may
+	be needlessly endangered.
+
+
+			Love,
+
+			Mark "Vizopteryx" Dominus
+
+You can store a template in a file outside your program.  People can
+modify the template without modifying the program.  You can separate
+the formatting details from the main code, and put the formatting
+parts of the program into the template.  That prevents code bloat and
+encourages functional separation.
+
+You can fill in the template in a `Safe' compartment.  This means that
+if you don't trust the person who wrote the code in the template, you
+won't have to worry that they are tampering with your program when you
+execute it.  
+

+
+Text::Template was originally released some time in late 1995 or early
+1996.  After three years of study and investigation, I rewrote it from
+scratch in January 1999.  The new version, 1.0, was much faster,
+delivered better functionality and was almost 100% backward-compatible
+with the previous beta versions.
+
+I have added a number of useful features and conveniences since the
+1.0 release, while still retaining backward compatibility.  With one
+merely cosmetic change, the current version of Text::Template passes
+the test suite that the old beta versions passed.
