Bug#106678: ITP: new -- A template system

[Baruch Even <baruch@ev-en.org>]

Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2001-07-26
Severity: wishlist

New is a template system, especially useful in conjunction with a simple text
editor such as vi. The user maintains templates which may contain format
strings. At run time, new replaces the format strings in a template with
appropriate values to create a new file.

This amounts to creation of new files from templates by issuing a command like:
new ImageTransformer.C 

esp. usefull when including a license at the top of each file.

I am a New Maintainer and so looking for a sponsor. The currently package
can be found at http://baruch.ev-en.org/debian/
