The idea is based on this recipe from the Python Cookbook. This solution enjoys the benefits of using pure Python syntax. This means that we are now using single bar (|) again.

Pipes are so perfect :p. Double pipe won't kill me. ^^ Oh well, can’t think of something better either. Pipes are so perfect :p. Double pipe won’t kill me. ^^

It leads to ambiguous expressions. Unfortunately also > and >> are taken. But I'm open to suggestions. Patching Genshi was basically dropping the same lines of code, but elsewhere. Genshi itself does things a lot differently than Kid. Italo, The problem is that one | is a Python operator. It leads to ambiguous expressions. Unfortunately also > and >> are taken.

Nadav, what about using double dollar. Like $${}? Would that be very hard to implement, instead of using double pipes? Or ${"some_output | lower | prettier | hot_chik_pretty | turbogears_pretty"} using string. Double pipes seems so wrong to my eyes...(but i'll use it anyway :P) ps: Would patching Genshi the same way as patching kid? Maybe using pipes with widgets would be nice too.

It is a form of representation that shouldn't be kept in the db. There are forms of representations that are tightly coupled with the template. For example, when a design of a web page becomes narrower, your want to truncate the strings even more. Jorge,

I mean if I'm always going to ${ story.text || escape || linebreaks } why not process that when it gets input do it ones and store it like that on the db? it could be usefull for something very dynamic but I don't see much use (other then being cool) on output. now implementing it as a decorator or even as some sort of validator could be a more "usefull" way of having pipes. /me puts the tomatoes down…. this seems interesting
