Adding custom code to theme regions

I've created a regio开发者_运维问答n in my theme's .info file, and added the region variable to page.tpl.php. If I want to add some code to this region, how do I do it?

Short answer: you use the region name you declared in your info file as a variable in your template files.

Long answer: here is an excellent video on how to do theming. The whole region system is explained in this video, and a lot more.
