Okay, I'm a bit curious here, and hope that Alexey can explain it ... what
exactly is a template engine, and how does it work?  Alexey, just because
you are familiar with one doesn't help unless there are others as familiar

using one so that others will want to learn how to ... so if you can
explain, and maybe provide an example?  That may help ...
