BEGIN { print "angular.module('"module"').run(['$templateCache', function($templateCache) {" }

{ 
    # split file path using /
    n=split(FILENAME, p, "/");

    # escape " and ' with \" and \'
    gsub(/"/, "\\\""); 
    gsub(/\047/, "\\\047"); 

    # grab last item in p array which is the filename i.e. mytemplate.html
    url="partials/"p[n]
    # set content = first row (should only be one)
    contents=$1

    print "$templateCache.put('"url"','"contents"');"
