+/**
+ * jQuery plugin for micro templates
+ *
+ * Strings are automatically escaped, but that can be disabled by setting escapeFunction to null.
+ *
+ * Usage examples:
+ *
+ *	var str = 'Bake, uncovered, until the {greasystuff} is melted and the {pasta} is heated through, about {min} minutes.'
+ *	$(str).octemplate({greasystuff: 'cheese', pasta: 'macaroni', min: 10});
+ *
+ * 	var htmlStr = '<p>Welcome back {user}</p>';
+ *	$(htmlStr).octemplate({user: 'John Q. Public'}, {escapeFunction: null});
+ *
+ * For anything larger than one-liners, you can use a simple $.get() ajax request to get the template,
+ * or you can embed them it the page using the text/template type:
+ *
+ * <script id="contactListItemTemplate" type="text/template">
+ *	<tr class="contact" data-id="{id}">
+ *		<td class="name">
+ *			<input type="checkbox" name="id" value="{id}" /><span class="nametext">{name}</span>
+ *		</td>
+ *		<td class="email">
+ *			<a href="mailto:{email}">{email}</a>
+ *		</td>
+ *		<td class="phone">{phone}</td>
+ *	</tr>
+ * </script>
+ *
+ * var $tmpl = $('#contactListItemTemplate');
+ * var contacts = // fetched in some ajax call
+ *
+ * $.each(contacts, function(idx, contact) {
+ * 		$contactList.append(
+ * 			$tmpl.octemplate({
+ * 				id: contact.getId(),
+ * 				name: contact.getDisplayName(),
+ * 				email: contact.getPreferredEmail(),
+ * 				phone: contact.getPreferredPhone(),
+ * 			});
+ * 		);
+ * });
+ */
