Hi Artyom,
I'm a new user of WT, I've been using it since I started looking for
something lightweight a feature rich to use in an embedded project. I've
been extremely impressed with it so far, I've done a bit of web development
with Perl and libraries such as template toolkit but I personally enjoy the
abstraction from the repetitive task of building a page from "web
technologies". There is half of the template concept implemented in WT
where you can change the content and even the resulting HTML using a key to
data stored in an external XML file (WT::WText). The other half of the
templating functionality I agree would make WT more flexible and this would
be the ability to pass arguments to placeholders in the localized text. Is
this some thing that is on the development wish list?
Regards,
James
