I am ... fitfully working on Text::Balanced. It's difficult because it's
*very* idiomatic Perl and depends on a feature (pos and \G) that there are
ways to emulate in Ruby, but nothing that quite works the same way.

I have some work I'm doing on Ruwiki to make it a Webrick servlet, and then
I think I'm going to try to approach this again.

I have a port of Text::Balanced that I made for an experimental port of
Parse:RecDescent if you (or anyone else) are interested:


http://dev.faeriemud.org/~deveiant/RecDescentP...
DelimScanner.rb?dl=1

It''s implemented as a subclass of Minero Aoki''s excellent ''strscan''
module.
