Returning early from a template

Sometimes you want to stop processing a template or <%def> method in the middle and just use the text you've accumulated so far.  You can use a ``return`` statement inside a Python block to do that.

% if len(records) == 0:
No records found.
<%   return  %>
% endif

Or perhaps:

<%   if len(records) == 0:
         return
%>
