On: Building a toy template engine in Python

[thisishugo]

I'm not sure I like the idea of parsing templates with regular expressions. There is a better way, as demonstrated in Robe Pike's video[1] detailing how the Go template language is implemented.

Edit: which isn't meant to detract from the fact that this is a great article.

Thanks for the video – this was my first stub at template engines so I'm all for learning about better approaches.
