Text::TemplateFill 1.7

Text::TemplateFill is a Perl module for formatting of reports with templates from files, use for I18N.

SYNOPSIS

use Text::TemplateFill;

my $tmpl = new Text::TemplateFill;
$tmpl->SetOpt('BaseDir' => "paras/$Country");
$tmpl->SetOpt('ErrorFunction' => &LogMsg, 'LineTerminator' => "rn");

# Must read all the files before printing a paragraph
$tmpl->ReadPara('Header', "head");
$tmpl->ReadPara('FirstPage');
$tmpl->ReadPara('Footer');
$tmpl->ReadPara('Body');
$tmpl->SetOpt('StartPageTag' => 'Header');

my ($a, $b, $cn, $d) = ('a', 'letter b', 'ACME Inc', 4.92);
$tmpl->BindVars('NameOfA' => $a, 'B' => $b, 'CustomerName' => $cn, 'VarD' => $d);

print $tmpl->GeneratePara('FirstPage'); # Optional - since we want a specific 1st page

print $tmpl->GeneratePara('Body');
... $a = ...; $b = ...
print $tmpl->GeneratePara('Body');
print $tmpl->CompletePage;
