Description (from the POD documentation)
----------------------------------------

CPPTemplate is a templating system using a CPP-style (C Pre-Processor) syntax.
CPPTemplate is quite fast so that it can be used in online Applications such as
CGI scripts to separate program the code from the HTML. CPPTemplate is not HTML
specific, so it can be used for other applications. For performance reasons,
the files containing the templates are read only once and are cached for
further use. This is especially handy when working with long running scripts
which use the same template over and over again. Apache mod_perl is such an
environment.

An application can use a large number of templates. They could for example
represent different parts of output generated by the aplication.  Each template
can contain variables and CPP style if-then-else structures.  When the template
gets activated, all the variables will get substituted and the if-then-else
structures will get processed.
