Two things: 1. TurbineUser doesn't really use OM, so OMTool would not be of any use. 2. A long time ago I asked about OMTool and someone replied that it was broken and was not going to be fixed. Check the mail archive or await a more positive response.
I think I looked at TemplateLink when I started writing pull tools. Again, the mail archive has some lengthy discussions of pull tools that contain some good advice.
