About
=====

Webgen can be used to generate web pages from page description and
template files. You create one template file in which you define the
layout of your page and where the content should go. After that you can
create page description files in which you only define the content.

When webgen is run it combines the template with each of the page
description files and generates the HTML output files. During this
process special tags are substituted so that, for example, a menu is
generated.

More information on webgen can be found on its homepage:
http://webgen.rubyforge.org
