is there a template engine similar to Template Toolkit 2 (in Perl) available for Ruby? It should be feature-rich, stand-alone, not restricted to only generate HTML output.
I know there are solutions around (everybody writes his own, I suppose), but it is difficult to get an overview on what is available.

There is a nice assortment of template engines in Ruby. A good overview of
the more common ones is on this wiki page. Many of these can be used for
both html and non-html output and they mention that in their features.
however the wiki appears to be not responding right now so google cache has
a recent copy [here][1] (or search google for ruby html templates and you'll
find it)
This site lists a quick snippet of their syntax and the major features along
with links to the sites.

I'm not familiar with Perl or TT2. However, I will say that ERB (that
comes with Ruby) sounds like a good match. I use it at work for both
HTML and C++ code generation.
Because it was so common for me to want to use an XML file to drive an
ERB template, I wrote a little script that loads a specified XML file
into REXML, and makes that available to an ERB template.
It's simple, but it's Ruby...how much more simplicity and power do you
need?
