edit webhelp/development.ini and put near the top:

mako.directories = webhelp:templates

edit webhelp/webhelp/__init__.py and put:

config.add_subscriber('webhelp.subscribers.add_renderer_globals',
                      'pyramid.events.BeforeRender')
config.add_route('webhelper', '/webhelper')
config.scan()

above:

return config.make_wsgi_app()

edit webhelp/webhelp/views.py, add:

from pyramid.view import view_config

@view_config(route_name='webhelper', renderer='webhelper.mako')
def webhelper(request):
    return {'data':'data', 'email1_count':1, 'email2_count':2}

create webhelp/webhelp/subscribers.py:

from pyramid.threadlocal import get_current_request
from pyramid.exceptions import ConfigurationError
from pyramid.url import route_url
from webhelp import helpers

def add_renderer_globals(event):
    request = event.get('request')
    if request is None:
        request = get_current_request()
    globs = {
        'h':helpers,
        }
    event.update(globs)

create webhelp/webhelp/helpers.py:

from webhelpers.text import plural
from webhelpers.html.tags import form

create webhelp/webhelp/templates/webhelper.mako:

<p>
here's my ${data}
</p>
You have ${h.plural(email1_count,'message','messages')}.<br/>
You have ${h.plural(email2_count,'message','messages')}.<br/>
${h.form('asdf')}

Briefly, any import in helpers will be exposed to your template as
h.whatever. If you just want to use normal webhelper rather than a
form library you can. Also, I use deform with both Mako and Jinja2,
and unless you need to change the widgets, it doesn't really matter
much that the templates use chameleon. I've written several projects
and except for one minor case, haven't modified the templates.
