Title: csv to formatted output function?

Description:
A function that would be useful to have is
a 'template' type module - perhaps even generalized
enough to be used with things other than csv - but
basically that would allow you to supply
'records'/arrays/csv lines (some kind of input) and out
would come 'formletter' type output.

This probably could even be used with the report
modules, etc.

Basically, a way of specifying output that might
not be 'report' oriented (letters, post cards, web
pages, etc.)

I believe this will suffice.

The expander patch is now committed to tcllib/textutil. 
This means that the heart of the FR is now fulfilled IMHO.

Larry ?

Enclosed a patch adding the expander to textutil, as a 
subpackage. Adds a nroff manpage too.

The attached archive contains the heart of William
Duquette's [expand] processor as an object.
