-------------------------------------
Summary: Introduce <#continue> to skip an item within <#list>
Key: FREEMARKER-79
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FREEMARKER-79
Project: Apache Freemarker
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: engine
Affects Versions: 2.3.26-incubating
Reporter: Ondra Žižka
Freemarker has {{<#break>}} but no {{<#continue>}} to skip items in a
{{<#list>}}.
It has been considered few times, but seems it's not here in Apache Jira, so
I'm adding it.
Copying the reasoning from old FM feature request
[https://sourceforge.net/p/freemarker/feature-requests/79/]

In Freemarker you can use break directive to exit from a list loop: actually I
would need a "continue" directive to go to the next item if some condition is
verified.
EG:
<#assign seq = ["winter", "spring", "summer", "autumn"]>
<#list seq as x>
<#if x = "spring"><#continue></#if>
${x}
</#list>
This will simply not print spring skipping directly to next item.
