It's built to handle things like [% FILTER repeat(3) %]blah [% END %] -- Two starting points (with some good examples) are the FILTER directive and the Template::Filters docs.

Nice! Learn something new every day...

Just a little question... I saw that the | can be used for an alias to FILTER, but I didn't understood if this only applies to non-block directive... And if it's valid to remove the whitespaces... would the following be valid?
• [%|i18n%]Text to be translated[%END%]
• [%|i18n(10)%]You gained %d experience points[%END%]

P.S.: Is there an alias for [%END%]?

<EDIT>
Yes, that's valid
</EDIT>

Changing that to:
[% "Text to be translated" | i18n %]
and
[% "You gained %d experience points" | i18n(10) %]

respectively, would eliminate the need for the [%END%] tag. I also find this more readable.
