Re: [cgiapp] ANNOUNCE BETA: CGI::Application::Template 0.01

[David Baxter <suppressed>]

Jesse,

I'm just having a look through your module to give you some feedback. I notice 
in the app_module.tmpl when you are writing the run modes there is a variable 
for mode_template but it isn't mentioned in your docs or in the code. Is this 
an unimplemented feature or have I missed something.

After just a quick look, I think I could probably use this module. I would use 
it in a macro in my code editor to start new applications. The mode_template 
function would be useful for me in this case.

Thanks,

>        CGI::Application::Template provides a means by which a
>        CGI::Application module can be created from code, as
>        opposed to being written by hand.  The goal of this module
>        is two-fold:
> 
>          1. To ease the creation of new CGI::Application modules.
>          2. To allow standardization of CGI::Application coding
>             styles to be more uniformly applied.
