usage

# set global variables
site_title "Manic static site example

img_tag lambda{|src| "<img src=\"#{src}\" />"}
end
plugins
Plugins are as basic as they can be. The API consists of just a module with helper methods.
By default, all files in plugins
will be autoloaded and available. This doesn't mean you can't load plugins other ways.
Calling plugin ModuleName
or plugin "filename"
in the Manic config file will load a plugin.
Helper methods can also be defined inside the Manic config by passing a lambda.
Manic.config do
img_tag lambda{|src| "<img src=\"#{src}\" />"}
end
Now you have an img_tag
helper method available to you.
