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.


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.
