lua-CodeGen 0.2.0 was released with the syntax ${dependencies/_depend()}
and some minor improvements.
so compatibility with ST is no longer a goal?
The compatibility with ST (www.stringtemplate.org) was never a goal.
lua-CodeGen is minimalist compared to ST; less than 250 LoC and no external dependency. lua-CodeGen is not a Lua port of ST. Many features are missing. lua-CodeGen is based on T. Parr's papers (the author of ST),
and borrows or not some syntax/notation defined in these papers. I try to define a syntax which the standard Lua regex could parse.
