We have tried to make using your existing templates with
Velocity as simple as possible. Right now we only have a WebMacro
to Velocity template converter, but we hope to have a
Tea to Velocity template converter, and a FreeMarker to Velocity
template converter.
</P>
<P align="justify">
There is a script in the convert directory called
convert-wm.sh that can convert a single WebMacro template
to a Velocity template, or convert an entire directory
structure of WebMacro templates to Velocity templates.
To use the script simply provide the template, or directory
of templates to convert:

This will produce a single Velocity template named
template.vm, or a directory structure of templates
named templates.vm. Your original templates are
preserved.
