NAME

       empy -  A powerful and robust templating system for Python

SYNOPSIS

       empy [options] [<filename, or  '-' for stdin>  [<argument>]]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the empy command.

       EmPy is a system for embedding Python expressions and statements in template text; it takes an EmPy source file, processes it, and produces
       output. This is accomplished via expansions, which are special signals to the EmPy system and are set off by a special prefix  (by  default
       the at sign, @).

       EmPy can expand arbitrary Python expressions and statements in this way, as well as a variety of special forms. Textual data not explicitly
       delimited in this way is sent unaffected to the output, allowing Python to be used in effect as a markup language. Also supported are call-
       backs  via hooks, recording and playback via diversions, and dynamic, chainable filters. The system is highly configurable via command line
       options and embedded commands.

OPTIONS

       These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with  two  dashes  (`-').   A  summary  of  options	is
       included below.	For a complete description, see the Info files.
