Hi Johannes,

  in general, you need to build up a tree of sub templates.  For  
example if you are building a template for a Java class, you need to  
build not only the outer class definition template, but all of the  
method templates and then within those, all of the statement  
templates.  Within those, you need to build all of the expression  
templates.  The way to do this is by recognizing the various  
subtrees, which typically means a tree grammar. Imagine that each  
rule in your grammar returns a sub template, which effectively maps a  
subtree to a sub template.  The invoking rule builds a bigger  
template and so on up until the root rule which builds the overall  
template.
