/// \file utils/text/templates.hpp
/// Custom templating engine for text documents.
///
/// This module provides a simple mechanism to generate text documents based on
/// templates. The templates are just text files that contain template
/// statements that instruct this processor to perform transformations on the
/// input.
///
/// While this was originally written to handle HTML templates, it is actually
/// generic enough to handle any kind of text document, hence why it lives
/// within the utils::text library.
///
/// An example of how the templates look like:
///
/// %if names
/// List of names
/// -------------
/// Amount of names: %%length(names)%%
/// Most preferred name: %%preferred_name%%
/// Full list:
/// %loop names iter
/// * %%last_names(iter)%%, %%names(iter)%%
/// %endloop
/// %endif names
