Hi,
simple question:

I've created a new template.xml file for my plugin (extending org.eclipse.ui.editors.templates).

My question is:
Can I use < and > within the template?
For example:

...
<template name="Example" description="Example" id="example" context="own" enabled="true" autoinsert="false">

this is a simple test with < and >

</template>
...


This example does not work. How can I escape < and > to use them in my template?

Thanks for your help.

Another option should be enclose element content between <![CDATA[ and ]]>. In this case, you don't have to replace < or >.
