Template language

Each template is a string that contains zero or more text characters and zero or more control tags. Tag is a case-sensitive character sequence that is enclosed in < and > characters. Each tag has a name - alphanumeric sequence of characters. Optionally the tag name can be prefixed by TagPrefix, that is specified as a property.
