= Alternation Syntax

Alternation syntax similar to that used in Unix shells may also be
used:

`%{%{Foo}:-bar}`

This code returns the value of `%{Foo}`, if it has a value.
Otherwise, it returns a literal string bar.

`%{%{Foo}:-%{Bar}}`

This code returns the value of `%{Foo}`, if it has a value.
Otherwise, it returns the expansion of `%{Bar}`.

These conditional expansions can be nested to almost any depth, such
as with `%{%{One}:-%{%{Two}:-%{Three}}}`.

.Examples
`%{%{Stripped-User-Name}:-%{User-Name}}` +
`%{%{Framed-IP-Address}:-<none>}`
