Re: [SMARTY-DEV] Re: backtic syntax changed

I think a better way would be something like this: template -------- {config_load file="foo.conf" eval=true} foo.conf -------- var = "foo bar {$foo}" Or another method, a global value: $config_eval = true; Test if the literal string '{$' is found in each config var. If so, eval it as a template.
