       This  manual  page documents briefly the cheetah command-line tool.  This manual page was written for the
       Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       cheetah is a Python-powered template engine and code generator. It can be used as a standalone utility or
       it can be combined with other tools. Cheetah has many potential uses, but web developers  looking  for  a
       viable alternative to ASP, JSP, PHP and PSP are expected to be its principle user group.

       The  cheetah  command-line tool is the standalone utility portion of the software suite.  cheetah-compile
       is a convenience script that for the "cheetahcompile..." command. The utility accepts a single  command
       possible  options  and  a list of files.  If FILE is a single "-", read standard input and write standard
       output.
