[stringtemplate-interest] Conditional statements

[Galen Dunkleberger]

Whoa, looks like I kind of opened Pandora's box here. In the end I just
decided to take the common parts of the template that could get rendered
and put them into a separate template that could be included in the
various outcomes of the nested ifs...helps keep the template looking
clean and it works fine.

...
"As for &&, I'm  
thinking that might be *too* convenient... ;)"
...

I like this answer (even though it was my request) too often a lot of
open source projects and frameworks try to be all things to all people
and they end up in chaos. ST works well now and I can deal with the lack
of &&. 

		Thanks,
			Galen
