+The script `templaterenderer.py' can be used to combine a django-template in plain xml and a xml-skeleton into one view-template that holds the skeleton and the (partially) html-encoded django-template which can be imported into RDMO.
+
+just start the script from your command line:
+
+```bash
+python templaterenderer.py
+```
+
+It looks in the directory templaterenderer-djangotemplates for a pair of files. One ending with `.django`, one with `.xmlskeleton`.
+
+It exports a file into the shared folder.
