Bug#568571: O: template-new -- A template system
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of template-new, baruch@debian.org, doesn't have
enough time anymore for this package. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Some information about this package:
template-new is called new by upstream author.
It is 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:
template-new file.c
It comes with a large set of predefined templates.
