Yes and no. It is a simple template thing.
The original poster wanted :
it's either code or it's not. no added tags, etc.
In CGI::FastTemplate there is no embedded code, no added tags, so it
suits that need perfectly.
If you want more advanced stuff (loops, code, etc...) then
probably Mason, AxKit or things like that will be more of your taste.
Personnally, since 2 years, CGI::FastTemplate was always enough for
me.
Needs are different. CGI::FastTemplate is very good for very basic
needs (that is no HTML code in mod_perl handlers, but in separate
files). For more advanced needs there are other solutions.
