"""Python implementation of json-template.

JSON Template is a minimal and powerful templating language for transforming a
JSON dictionary to arbitrary text.

To use this module, you will typically use the Template constructor, and catch
various exceptions thrown.  You may also want to use the FromFile/FromString
methods, which allow Template constructor options to be embedded in the template
string itself.

Other functions are exposed for tools which may want to process templates.
