I would like to programmatically take text files in the controller, format 
them (per paragraph with spans and p) and pass them to a view as 
{{=content}}. 
The helpers seem to be designed to prevent me from doing that (eg can't 
accumulate them one at a time into the string content). 
response.write puts them in the wrong place. 
SPAN(text).xml() gets escaped.

For example (in controller/default.py):

def words():
    
    with open(os.path.join(request.folder, 'static',"words", "words.txt"),'r') 
as infile:
        content = ""
        for line in infile:
            s = SPAN(line, _class="body")
            content +=P(s) # I know this doesn't work


    return dict(content=content)


How do I go about achieving this?

Thanks


Brendan
