I went down the HTML::Template path. It's much lighter weight than TT, quicker to learn and with enough built in smarts to get stuff done without needing to embed code.

Optimising for fewest key strokes only makes sense transmitting to Pluto or beyond

    It’s also much closer to a pure View and as such a good choice for maintenance. The only advantage Xslate has there is speed; it’s in C and additionally optimized to cached templates.

      Well that excludes that option from the choice...complied modules cannot be readily installed on the shared hosting I'm using. I can ask support to install them which is a lottery on who picks up the ticket as to if and when it happens. So it's no for now. Maybe I shall look again when I have VPS or a dedicated server.
