How to override Jinja2 block_start_string

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I’m trying to override certain Jinja2 environment defaults like block_start_string:

import jinja2

jinja_env = jinja2.Environment(
    block_start_string = '<%',
    block_end_string = '%>',
    variable_start_string = '<<',
    variable_end_string = '>>'
)

I’m loading that extension file with yasha -e my_extension.py however it doesn’t take effect as I don’t know how to activate that jinja_env I’m creating.

Thanks for maintaining this project!
