thanks for reply.

Python is templating engine - thats really good.

But I can only include file in one place and there is no way to change
anything in parrent file. That's a minus, and the minor problem for
mine.

The same thing with filters/macros. I need to use the same macro/
filter in many files. I cannot find this "option" in web2py
templates...
