Add looping helpers and helperContext #100

Closed smfoote closed 9 years ago

smfoote commented 9 years ago

Looping helpers require a globalish context (so they can know if they are first, last, etc.) The helperContext is a place where helpers can store information that can be used by other helpers (e.g. nested helpers) or within the template (e.g. @let could be used to add constants--they're not really variables--to Tornado, that can be used as references in other places in a Tornado template). This is a rough draft.
