Say a user picks `TMPL`.\r\n\r\n```javascript\r\nvar TMPL = {\r\n  'templates/template': '<html>...</html>'\r\n};\r\n```\r\n\r\nThis could either be blocks of HTML or a keyed object of `lodash` functions. With the latter, it would be best to provide interpolation options naturally.\r\n\r\nThis type of file is used similarly to angulars template cache and would be used in a concatenation of scripts for deployment.\r\n\r\nIf I am to create this plugin, I can foresee it being blacklisted as a duplicate of `gulp-jst-concat` although `gulp-jst-concat` doesn't offer the ability to use `lodash` options and I find its options to not be as intuitive as possible.\r\n\r\nThe other issue here is that `gulp-jst-concat` hasn't been touched in over a year nor has it's owner been active for over a year although people are posting issues. It would seem unfair to be blacklisted if I was to implement a newer version that was actively maintained by myself. I can see this being an issue with other plugins too.\r\n\r\n@jh3y"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/gulpjs/plugins/issues/comments/86544386","html_url":"https://github.com/gulpjs/plugins/issues/181#issuecomment-86544386","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/gulpjs/plugins/issues/181","id":86544386,"user":{"login":"jh3y","id":842246,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/842246?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y","html_url":"https://github.com/jh3y","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jh3y/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-03-26T14:42:52Z","updated_at":"2015-03-26T14:42:52Z","body":"Sweet.
