+SYNOPSIS:
+
+ require("Smarty.class.php");
+
+ $smarty = new Smarty;
+
+ $smarty->assign("Title","My Homepage");
+ $smarty->assign("Names",array("John","Gary","Gregg","James"));
+
+ $smarty->display("index.tpl");
+
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+
+ What is Smarty?
+
+ Smarty is a template engine for PHP. Many other template engines for PHP
+ provide basic variable substitution and dynamic block functionality.
+ Smarty takes a step further to be a "smart" template engine, adding
+ features such as configuration files, template functions, and variable
+ modifiers, and making all of this functionality as easy as possible to
+ use for both programmers and template designers. Smarty also converts
+ the templates into PHP scripts, eliminating the need to parse the
+ templates on every invocation. This makes Smarty extremely scalable and
+ manageable for large application needs.
+
+ Some of Smarty's features:
+
+ * it is extremely fast
+ * no template parsing overhead, only compiles once.
+ * it is smart about recompiling only the template files that have
+ changed.
+ * the template language is remarkably extensible via the plugin
+ architecture.
+ * configurable template delimiter tag syntax, so you can use
+ {}, {{}}, <!--{}-->, or whatever you like.
+ * built-in caching of template output.
+ * arbitrary template sources (filesystem, databases, etc.)
+ * template if/elseif/else/endif constructs are passed to the PHP parser,
+ so the if syntax can be as simple or as complex as you like.
+ * unlimited nesting of sections, conditionals, etc. allowed
+ * it is possible to embed PHP code right in your template files,
+ although not recommended and doubtfully needed since the engine
+ is so customizable.
+ * and many more.
