Description:
Use the <templateEPS> <keyword> to set up <default> <properties> to be used for any new <EPS|EPS objects> you create.

The <templateEPS> can be thought of as a special, abstract <object>. It is not an actual <EPS|EPS object>, but it has all the <properties> of an <EPS>. The <ID> <property> of the <templateEPS> is zero.

You can use the <set> <command> to set the <properties> of the <templateEPS> before creating an <EPS|EPS object>. The new <EPS> has the <properties> of the <templateEPS>, by <default>. Changing the <properties> of the <templateEPS> does not affect existing <EPS> <object|objects>.

The properties of the <templateEPS> can be returned to the default settings using the <reset> command.

You can refer to the <templateEPS> using any of the following forms:
        templateEPS
        the templateEPS
        templateEPS()

>*Note:* The <templateEPS> <keyword> is implemented internally as a <function> and appears in the <functionNames>. However, it cannot be used as a <function> in an <expression>.
