+"""Conversion pipeline templates.
+
+The problem:
+------------
+
+Suppose you have some data that you want to convert to another format,
+such as from GIF image format to PPM image format. Maybe the
+conversion involves several steps (e.g. piping it through compress or
+uuencode). Some of the conversion steps may require that their input
+is a disk file, others may be able to read standard input; similar for
+their output. The input to the entire conversion may also be read
+from a disk file or from an open file, and similar for its output.
+
+The module lets you construct a pipeline template by sticking one or
+more conversion steps together. It will take care of creating and
+removing temporary files if they are necessary to hold intermediate
+data. You can then use the template to do conversions from many
+different sources to many different destinations. The temporary
+file names used are different each time the template is used.
+
+The templates are objects so you can create templates for many
+different conversion steps and store them in a dictionary, for
+instance.
+
+
+Directions:
+-----------
+
+To create a template:
+ t = Template()
+
+To add a conversion step to a template:
+ t.append(command, kind)
+where kind is a string of two characters: the first is '-' if the
+command reads its standard input or 'f' if it requires a file; the
+second likewise for the output. The command must be valid /bin/sh
+syntax. If input or output files are required, they are passed as
+$IN and $OUT; otherwise, it must be possible to use the command in
+a pipeline.
+
+To add a conversion step at the beginning:
+ t.prepend(command, kind)
+
+To convert a file to another file using a template:
+ sts = t.copy(infile, outfile)
+If infile or outfile are the empty string, standard input is read or
+standard output is written, respectively. The return value is the
+exit status of the conversion pipeline.
+
+To open a file for reading or writing through a conversion pipeline:
+ fp = t.open(file, mode)
+where mode is 'r' to read the file, or 'w' to write it -- just like
+for the built-in function open() or for os.popen().
+
+To create a new template object initialized to a given one:
+ t2 = t.clone()
