The thing you have done is one more home-grown templating system. I won't say is it good or bad for YOU. It is your own code and if it fits your needs, it is generally good, because you get your job done.
But if your code will be re-used in future, its modificatition can become a horrible puzzle. I have worked with a templating system I inherited from a programmer who stopped working on the project before I joined it. It seemed to suite the project well, but in a month I realized that new bugs appeared every time I tried to modify a bit in the templae or related code. I gave up and moved to HTML::Template, which is IMHO the best example of "Templating without a System" already availible in CPAN. I work in pair with a web designer who creates HTML pages for the project and it was quite simple to teach him the new syntax since I allowed him to use %FOO% variable placeholders instead of messy <TMPL_VAR name="FOO"> ones (HTML::Template has a built-in ability to do such things). Uph, it's a too long text for my broken English but I hope you understood me. I don't want to say that your idea is bad. But it can BECOME bad in future, if somebody tries to use it for his own job after you stop maintain it :) In reply to Re: Follow up to RFC: Templating without a System
