RE: [PHP Template] Hello?

I read the docs at http://bonsai.php.net/~andrei/ and it looks good.
I=B4m not sure if I think all the features described in the docs are =
needed.
It=B4s all very fancy but wouldn=B4t it be better to start by just =
"migrating"
FastTemplate, as a start.

And are if-elseif-else control statements really needed? I thought this
project was an enhancement of FastTemplate, and FastTemplate=B4s =
strength
lies, according to me, in that the HTML people never have to see any =
cryptic
"if(a) b else c" stuff.
Since I=B4m not at all in to C could someone giva a, rough, performance
estimation against FastTemplate.
