This is +accomplished via expansions, which are special signals to the EmPy system and +are set off by a special prefix (by default the at sign, @). EmPy can expand +arbitrary Python expressions and statements in this way, as well as a variety +of special forms. Textual data not explicitly delimited in this way is sent +unaffected to the output, allowing Python to be used in effect as a markup +language. Also supported are callbacks via hooks, recording and playback via +diversions, and dynamic, chainable filters. The system is highly configurable +via command line options and embedded commands. |
