Well a one-line template code generator are great and such, but if the 
output should be human readable it is necessary to have at least some 
form of mark-up control on it. Like newlines and indentations.

On the other hand if it is only meant to generate executable code, 
generating an interpreted code might not be the best solution for the 
actual problem.

For the corner cases (I can think of a couple) it is good to know you 
can use ';' most of the time.
