Purpose

This tool brings that special feature to the console which previously required full-fledged IDEs or the cp-command: Creation of a new software project by templates.

The package already contains a small set of templates but creating your own is very easy, indeed. The most simple template just copies some files and folders to the newly created source directory. More sophisticated ones perform many different changes on the source files like adding the author's initials by replacing variables or placing licence headers. It is even possible to parametricaly include or exclude whole code blocks.
