Template programming (%if; ... %end;)

The template mechanism provides a very powerful mechanism to construct HTML (or other) pages according to the content of a GeneWeb base. This section is not intending to give an exhaustive description of the corresponding language. Through some examples extracted from gw/etc/perso.txt, it provides a glimpse of the possibility. For further analysis, explore the various other template files, and on last resort, explore the Ocaml source files!!
