This can be used in links to display static text:
<r:link text='copyright'/>
But even better, use “t” to avoid littering templates with fixed strings and be ready for multi-lingual support. This must be used along with a dictionary :
<r:link t='copyright'/>
Or it can be used to build more complex strings by evaluating ruby:
<r:link text='copyright #{owner.fullname}'/>
But since all methods that accept text as parameter usually evaluate the block, the example above might be more readable with:
<r:link>copyright <r:owner do='fullname'/></r:link>
