Revision history for Perl extension Template::Plex.
v0.7.0 2024-01-10
  [improvements]
    - immediate load and render will use the supplied vars also as fields to
      render call and actually make them usable in immediate templates.
    - template relative paths can now be specified with reference to scalar
    - absolute template paths no longer use prepend 'root' dir option


  [depricated]
    - 'including' templates will be removed from future versions in favour of
      sub templates  for better diagnostics.

      using the standard multiline form or @{[ # comment ]}
