use of enumerate() in Jinja templates

[Dmitry Makovey]

Hi,

is there a pattern for implementing loop similar to python:

for (i,name) in enumerate(list_of_items):
   print i, name

when I try to implement it in Jinja I get error (no enumerate is not available):

{% for (i,name) in enumerate(list_of_items) %}
item{{ i }} = {{ name }}
{%endfor %}

 what would be the best way of achieving similar result without implementing my own filter?

discovered https://groups.google.com/forum/embed/#!topic/pocoo-libs/gDPqQiRBhdg which mentiones loop.index variable. That'll do for me.
