History

Few years ago, i've discovered Smarty for php, and was totally amazed by all the concepts of this templating engine.
With python, i had never found a templating engine as powerful as smarty. In the fabulous python world, there are a lot of engines (quixote, kid, cheetah, cherrytemplate, tal, ptp, simpletal ...), but no one comes with all the simple and good concepts that i've found in smarty.
So i decided to build my own simple smarty-like template engine, which i named smartpy.
