[pmwiki-users] (:template none:) ?

I'm currently trying to write a pagelist format that can handle 0, 1 or
several hits being returned, but I'm having trouble with the case of no
matches. I would like to display a message in that case, but it looks like the
entire contents of the format is ignored if there are no matches.

Ideally I'd like something like a (:template none:) that only gets output when
the list is empty. That way one could do this:

  [[#listfmt]]
  (:template first:)
  ||'''Name''' ||'''Rank''' ||
  (:template each:)
  ||{=$:Name} ||{=$:Rank} ||
  (:template last:)
  There were {$$PageCount} matching records.
  (:template none:)
  No records matched your query.
  [[#listfmtend]]
