Includeing Python in text files

[Paolo Pantaleo]

I am working on this:

I have a text file, containig certain section in the form
<?py
python code here
py?>

I parse the text file and substitute the python code with its result
[redirecting sys.stdin to a StringIO]. It something like php or
embedded perl.

So my little toy works not bad, but I was wondering if such a feature
already existed, if yes, can you point me out some links?

Thnx
PAolo

Its a templating system, and there are a gazillion out there. Some of them
are listed here:

Like Diez had said, use a template system or you could look at COG:

Yes Python Inside HTML, like this example from Karrigell docs
( http://karrigell.sourceforge.net/en/pythoninsidehtml.htm ):

The current date is
<% import time
print time.strftime("%d:%m:%y",time.localtime(time.time()))
%>


See http://karrigell.sourceforge.net/

Another standalone templating system is EmPy:

I'm just getting into programming so this may be a dumb question...but
why would you want to do this? What is templating good for?

Well php is base on this principle, most (server side) dynamic sites
are based on some template sistem
