| Subject: | Issues with templates that have colon's in the filename |
If you attempt to process a template with a colon in the filename, then
TT puts you through some code about PREFIX_MAP and different
Template::Providers (which is a feature that is very poorly documented).
If you have a file with a colon in the name and have no interest in
this PREFIX_MAP stuff, there is no way to just turn it off and have
everything behave normally.
So that's my suggestion. Add a constructor flag that disables the
PREFIX_MAP code completely. The attached patch (untested, unlikely to
work as is) should illustrate what I mean by that.
