+Mako is a template library written in Python. It provides a familiar,
+non-XML syntax which compiles into Python modules for maximum performance.
+Mako's syntax and API borrows from the best ideas of many others, including
+Django templates, Cheetah, Myghty, and Genshi. Conceptually, Mako is an
+embedded Python (i.e. Python Server Page) language, which refines the
+familiar ideas of componentized layout and inheritance to produce one of
+the most straightforward and flexible models available, while also
+maintaining close ties to Python calling and scoping semantics.
+
+This requires pysetuptools and MarkupSafe.
