Using Stamen map tiles in Leaflet without loading the tile.stamen.js file

gistfile1.js

var tonerUrl = "http://{S}tile.stamen.com/toner/{Z}/{X}/{Y}.png";

var url = tonerUrl.replace(/({[A-Z]})/g, function(s) {
    return s.toLowerCase();
});

var basemap = L.tileLayer(url, {
    subdomains: ['','a.','b.','c.','d.'],
    minZoom: 0,
    maxZoom: 20,
    type: 'png',

basemap.addTo(map);

// Check out the tile.stamen.js file for which options you have to pass depending on the style and mapping library

I am more into GFX design than web. I purchased this HTML theme recently from themeforest and want to implement stamen maps into it. Can anyone give me a detailed noob-friendly tutorial on how to go about implementing stamen maps?
(I can see a tile.stamen.js on my Dw toolbar.
I want a live tile of Bangalore to fit the whole browser screen)
Thanks!

this is incredibly helpful. here's a small example of it in use: http://bl.ocks.org/micahstubbs/c8a068042c204c7676a0a5d8e80bd8ec

I don't understand why you replace all '{S}', '{X}', etc. with lowercase instead of directly write them in lowercase in tonerUrl ?

Thank you very much for the code, very useful.
