CASM Sitebuilder for Perl

I love time-saving commandline tools. I've just found a web site building tool written in Perl by the name of CASM.

The developer best describes it as follows:

"CASM is an offline content management tool. Ideal for creating and maintaining dynamic or static WEB / WAP / XML sites.

CASM is a set of tools integrated in one commandline application. It contains the Content Assembling Language compiler, a HTML / CSS / XML optimizer, HTML tidy integration, and a powerful file structure builder.

Content Assembling Language (CAL) is a markup language designed to separate site content from display properties. CAL has a comfortable templating mechanism, if-then-else structure, variable substitution, file include, recordset handling, looping, embedded PERL scripting and more.

CASM enables you to separate the content from display properties, therefore eliminating unwanted redundancy of the site source. This reduces time and effort needed to the site building and maintenance."

Over the next few days, I plan to give CASM a try.

Stay tooned, more info to come :-)
