As you have the markers twice this wouldn't be my preferred solution.
(you also missed the two main contents ;-) )

this example just decides the name of the template and so i will use it:

this might be confusing as you are doing something different as in the 
example of your url.

just a rename to use the original contruction with the origianl name:

    temp.mainContent = TEMPLATE
    temp.mainContent {
>>  template = FILE
     // template.file = fileadmin/template/2col.html  // overwritten by:
     // here is the info from the external part:
     template.file < temp.mainTemplate
>>
>>  marks.HEADER_1 = TEXT
>>  marks.HEADER_1.field = title
     //marks.MAIN_CONTENTS = TEXT 	// is overwritten by:
>>  marks.MAIN_CONTENTS < styles.content.get
     //marks.RIGHT_CONTENTS = TEXT	// is overwritten by:
>>  marks.RIGHT_CONTENTS < styles.content.getRight
>> }

and dont copy the leading '>>' which show your original lines
