I don't think there's a direct port, but there are some Ruby HTML
templating libraries around (RDoc, cs/template, Amrita, ...).  Can you
describe the benefits of the Perl solution?  Maybe one of these (and there
are heaps more, I'm sure) is a close match.

I use and like Amrita for generating static pages.  Can't comment on
anything else.
