FWIW, below is my final version of code to fill
in nested templates. It's down to a call to new()
and a call to output() in each loop (besides the
pattern match).
Of course, there's a hidden param operation via
the assoc object. Whether or not this benchmarks
better, I don't know, but it comes across as
simpler IMO.
Of course, it introduces a bit of a dummy class
for the associate option, but I don't mind that
too much.
Thanks all,
Brad
