## Description

Just like the way you can create custom page templates, this plugin enables you 
to build custom taaxonomy archive templates by adding this bit to the top of your
file:

    ```
    <?php
    /**
     * {Taxonomy Singular Label} Template: Grid
     */
    ?>
    ```

where {Taxonomy Singular Label} should be replaced with the singular label registered
for the taxonomy (for example “Category” or “Tag”). Now when you’re adding or editing
terms in that taxonomy, you can choose the desired template file.

You can safely include this plugin in your theme and ship custom templates for taxonomy
archives with the theme.
