Is there anyway to declare variables within a template?  I'm coming
from a Zope background where with dtml you have the dtml-let tag and
with ZPT you have tal:define.  Django's templating seems so much cooler
than Zope's, but I'm missing a declare or define tag.

The idea I want to be able to do is:

{% declare nopastshows=0 %}
{% for show in object_list %}
        {% if show.is_past_show %}
          <h4>{{ show.show_date.month }}/{{ show.show_date.day }} {{
show.show_title}} @ <a href="{{ show.location_url }}" target="new">{{
show.location_name }}</a></h4>
        {% else %}
            {% nopastshows=1 %}
        {% endif %}
      {% endfor %}

{% if nopastshows %}
    <h4>No past show information available</h4>
{% endif %}


I saw the topic on writing a custom tag for the food selection, but
that seems like a lot of work for such a simple task.  Does anyone have
any suggestions?  Thanks.
