DESCRIPTION
   Apache2::DirBasedHandler::TT, is an subclass of Apache2::DirBasedHandler
   with modified to allow easy use of Template Toolkit templates for
   content generation.

 init
   "init" calls get_tt to get the template object, and stuffs it into the
   hash it gets back from the super class.

 get_tt
   "get_tt" returns a Template Toolkit object, and a hash reference of
   variables which will be passed into the TT process call. You should
   really override this function with to create the Template object
   appropriate to your environment.

 process_template
   "process_template" is a helper function to generate a page based using
   the template object, variables, and template passed in. It sets the
   content_type of the response to the value of the fifth argument.
