Templatotron is a simple language for template based XML processing. It can be also thought of as a language designed to save some writing in XSLT stylesheets and for keeping your attention focused on the XML syntax not on the XSLT one. I do not personally mind the rather verbose XSLT syntax and so in my eyes the second point is much more important but there are others who may appreciate Templatotron terseness. You can judge for yourself by browsing the tutorial and consulting the reference.
Templatotron can be very easily implemented in XSLT (Zvon implementation has approximately 100 lines) and any XML document can be used as a template. Zvon Templatotron creates an XSLT stylesheet from the source XML document and this stylesheet is then applied on target documents.
Zvon Templatotron implementation and this documentation for off-line use is available at the download page.
