 The Salt module functions are also made available in the template context as

+The following example illustrates calling the ``group_to_gid`` function in the
+``file`` execution module with a single positional argument called
+``some_group_that_exists``.

 .. code-block:: jinja
 
     moe:
       user.present:

+One way to think about this might be that the ``gid`` key is being assigned
+a value equivelent to the following python pseudo-code:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import salt.modules.file
+    file.group_to_gid('some_group_that_exists')

 Note that for the above example to work, ``some_group_that_exists`` must exist
 before the state file is processed by the templating engine.
