/**
 * A transform that captures the output of a block of FTL code and stores that in a variable.
 *
 * As this transform is initially present in the shared variable set, you can always
 * access it from the templates:
 *
 *  * <@capture_output var="captured">
 *   ...
 * </@capture_output>
 * 
 *
 * And later in the template you can use the captured output:
 *
 * ${captured}
 *
 * This transform requires one of three parameters: var, local, or global.
 * Each of them specifies the name of the variable that stores the captured output, but the first creates a
 * variable in a name-space (as <#assign>), the second creates a macro-local variable (as <#local>),
 * and the last creates a global variable (as <#global>).
 * 
 * In the case of an assignment within a namespace, there is an optional parameter
 * namespace that indicates in which namespace to do the assignment.
 * if this is omitted, the current namespace is used, and this will be, by far, the most
 * common usage pattern.
 *
 * @deprecated Use block-assignments instead, like <assign x>...</assign>.
