I was looking through the documentation of the overall mustache spec vs any implementation: http://mustache.github.com/mustache.5.html I don't see any other way than going the route of defining a lambda and adding it to the model instances as you passed them in to render. It does look like the Ruby implementation has the concept of helpers, and checking the pystache code it looks like it has some ability to create Modifiers? Is this what you're referring to? -- Rick Harding Launchpad Developer https://launchpad.net/~rharding @mitechie _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
