<DD>Load a properties file from the templatePath defined in the
generator. As the templatePath can contains multiple paths,
it will cycle through them to find the file. The first file
that can be successfully loaded is considered. (kind of
like the java classpath), it is done to clone the Velocity
process of loading templates.
