Template toolkit is indeed more ergonomic, but it also carries a lot of (useful) baggage with it (but baggage is still baggage). The example given lends itself to a more simpler solution. Rather than being the Pepsi guy at a Coca-Cola rally, i would have recommended Inline::TT:

use strict;
use warnings;
use Inline qw(TT);

print test(
   HOME => $ENV{HOME},
   PATH => $ENV{PATH},
);

__END__
__TT__
[% BLOCK test %]
<html>
<head><title>Test Template</title>
<body>
My Home Directory is [% HOME %]
<p>
My Path is set to [% PATH %]
</body>
</html>
[% END %]

However, i still prefer HTML::Template for its sheer simplicity. And my eyes haven't gone bad yet. ;)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
