I fail to see the point and the difference.  So what?  Is there a problem with an engine?  If so what is it?
It sounds like they do exactly the same thing.  They are just explained differently.

I don't think there is an installation required to run smarty.  Isn't it a function within the page that calls for another page?  Isn't that the same thing as what the "Structure" does?

I am not being smart, just the opposite.  I read that and think it says the same thing.

Please clear this up a bit more.  You said that google told you what it meant, but do you really know, or are you just trying to sound like it?  Because I sure don't.  (I am not being a jerk, just want to know)
