What module exists where I can take a hash like this:

my %hash = ( rules => {name => '"required"',
                       email => { required => true, email => true }
                      },
             message => { name => '"Please specify your name"',
               email => { required => '"We need your email address to 
+contact you"',
                  email => '"Your email address must be in the format 
+of name@domain.com"', }
              }
 );

And convert it to something like this for use in a js function:

  rules: {
    name: "required",
    email: {
      required: true,
      email: true
    }
  },
  messages: {
    name: "Please specify your name",
    email: {
      required: "We need your email address to contact you",
      email: "Your email address must be in the format of name@domain.
+com"
    }
  }

Ideally, the module would be smart enough to know when to double quote the values and when not to.

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate";
$nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;
