+preamble: |
+  Miscellaneous functions that aren't part of a specific namespace. Most of these are fairly special-purpose.
+funcs:
+  - name: tpl
+    description: |
+      Render the given string as a template, just like a nested template.
+
+      If the template is given a name (see `name` argument below), it can be re-used later with the `template` keyword.
+
+      A context can be provided, otherwise the default gomplate context will be used.
+    pipeline: false
+    arguments:
+      - name: name
+        required: false
+        description: The template's name.
+      - name: in
+        required: true
+        description: The template to render, as a string
+      - name: context
+        required: false
+        description: The context to use when rendering - this becomes `.` inside the template.
+    examples:
+      - |
+        $ gomplate -i '{{ tpl "{{print `hello world`}}" }}'
+        hello world
+      - |
+        $ gomplate -i '
+        {{ $tstring := "{{ print .value ` world` }}" }}
+        {{ $context := dict "value" "hello" }}
+        {{ tpl "T1" $tstring $context }}
+        {{ template "T1" (dict "value" "goodbye") }}
+        '
+        hello world
+        goodbye world
