GPlate is a template engine written in C using glib and the GObject system.

It was started due to the inability to find a template engine that was GPL

compatible and callable from C. Since these requirements couldn't be met, I

(Gary Kramlich), decided to write my own that was easier to use in applications

that are already using glib.

The idea behind gplate is to be extendable by the applications using it so that

it can fit whatever you needs may arise.
