  I wrote my own [1].  Just two functions, one works on strings, and the
other one that will read a file and call the first one.  A sample call:

	TEMPLATE = "Hello %{name}%, you are %{age}% years old."
	CALLBACKS =
	{
	  name = "Sean",
	  age = function(data)
	    if data then
	      return data.age
	    else
	      return math.random(99)
	    end
	  end
	}

	output = template(TEMPLATE,CALLBACKS, { age = 22 })
