I should have written something about this. ServletFactory
and PlateKit were essentially duplicating what TScompile
does for .tmpl files, but TScompile does it better. If you are
build a site using .tmpl files you should compile all the .tmpl
files into .py files using TScompile or the #extend directive
won't work with intra-site extends. This limitation also exists
with PSP's page @extend directive. The ServletFactory only
works on a single servlet at a time and thus isn't ideal for
working with #extend.
I axed the ServletFactory and PlateKit for this reason and
because it would be one more thing to maintain and explain.
I could foresee lots of questions about #extend problems.
To use TScompile:
1 - run python setup.py install
2 - add .py_bak and .tmpl to the file extensions to ignore
in WebKit's Configs/Application.config file
3 - write your .tmpl files
4 - run "TScompile -R ." in the top of your .tmpl directory

No. I hope this doesn't require anyone to change large amounts
of code.

That was my thought originally, but I prefer #end for /# now.
Less symbol characters and thus easier for non-programmers.
