! Introduction
The ''vars'' widget allows you to set multiple variables in one go. It thereby reduces code complexity that would arise when setting
many variables using the [[SetWidget]].
The ''vars'' widget allows multiple variables to be set in one operation. In some situations it can result in simpler code than using the more flexible SetWidget.
! Content and Attributes
The content of the `<$vars>` widget is the scope for the value assigned to the variable.
|!Attribute |!Description |
|//{attributes not starting with $}// |Each attribute name specifies a variable name. The attribute value is used as variable assignement |

! Remarks
It should be noted that this widget differs from the set widget in the following ways:
* You cannot specify a fallback (also known as "emptyValue")
* You cannot use a filter to produce a conditional variable assignement
* A fallback (also known as "emptyValue") cannot be specified
* Filters cannot be used to produce a conditional variable assignement
* Variable names must be literal strings
