Ok - so it's not really an awesome achievement and only handles basic templating needs (no loops and other programming constructs) but maybe someone will find it useful.
It replaces any xml block where the id attribute is specified with contents provided - a description is provided in the comments. http://pastebin.com/m76f57ae2 My knowledge of python is limited and I would like someone to help me with wrapping a command line interface around this function. I need switches to specify input file, output file, key/value pairs for variable substitution and key/value pairs for substituting blocks with file contents (there is some clarification in the comments) Any help would be appreciated. Of course - feel free to use the code as you wish when you wish if you wish :) -d- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
