Re: HTML::Template macros

++blokhead, but if you find yourself needing more of those "things", you might want to look into Template. Now don't get me wrong, i love HTML::Template, but sometimes i like having more expressional power, and Template has it:

These are my [% hobbits.size %] favorite hobbits:
<ul>
[% FOREACH hobbit = hobbits %]
<li>[% hobbit.name %]</li>
[% END %]
</ul>
[download]

Another cool thing (possibly overkill) is that each hobbit could be a real object, not just a hash in a list.

Oh yeah, you can get rid of the file slurp in your code by using the filehandle attribute instead of the scalarref one:

   filehandle => \*DATA,

Much nicer and more efficient. Cheers. :)
