anything in python to aid generation of html for CGI?

I'm using python to write a CGI script. I'm using a single script to both
present a form and to interpret the results, hence sometimes the code has to
output html for the form. Are there any 'shortcuts' in python for outputting
html? I'm thinking along the lines of perl's cgi podule, which allows you to
write things like:

print p;
which would output "<p>", and so on...

thanks

htmlgen is quite good and robust.

Basically, take your pick from the many listed under templating at
