Render Python powered string templates.

But you're right, it is "yet another template language". And I'm not going to apologize for it.

— Aaron Swartz

Syntax

• secure Python via [Templetor]

• a strict superset dialect of [Markdown]

• literate programming aided by [reStructuredText]

• mathematical formulae a la [LaTeX]

Features

• spell check based upon GNU's Aspell (91 countries)

• style conformance according to:
