+Using def inside Mako Templates
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To use a def inside a Mako template, given a :term:`Mako` template file named 
+``foo.mak`` and a def named ``bar``, you can configure the template as a 
+:term:`renderer` like so:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+   :linenos:
+
+   from pyramid.view import view_config
+
+   @view_config(renderer='foo#bar.mak')
+   def my_view(request):
+       return {'project':'my project'}
