> I want to use Velocity as a standard preprocessor for many programming languages or configuration files.   By using it this way, I can build a library of Velocity macros that I can callup whenever I want.   I want to be able to have macros located in different directories.   So the TEMPLATE_ROOT should be a list of directories that is searched by Velocity to find the first macro file needed.
> There also a need to have some macros archived in the Jar.   So a unified solution for having macros dispersed in a list of directories and insided the JAR file (in the real classpath).
> This would go a long way to improve Velocity.
