 New is a template system, especially useful in conjunction with a
 simple text editor such as vi. The user maintains templates which
 may contain format strings. At run time, nf replaces the format
 strings in a template with appropriate values to create a new file.

 For example, given the following template:

 //   FILE: %(FILE)
 // AUTHOR: %(FULLNAME)
 //   DATE: %(DATE)

 // Copyright (C) 1999 %(FULLNAME) %(EMAIL)
 // All rights reserved.

 nf will create:

 //   FILE: foo.cpp
 // AUTHOR: W. Michael Petullo
 //   DATE: 11 September 1999

 // Copyright (C) 1999 W. Michael Petullo new at flyn.org
 // All rights reserved.

 on my computer.

 The program understands plaintext or gziped template files.

 The fmt-ptrn system also provides a shared library which allows a
 programmer access to nf's functionality. The system was developed to
 be light and fast. Its only external dependencies are the C library,
 glib2 and zlib.
