I had noticed perlTeX before but it did not occur to me how powerful it may be. I suggest it to everyone interested in automatizing their document generation, from http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/perltex/
" PerlTeX is a combination Perl script (perltex.pl) and LaTeX2e style file (perltex.sty) that, together, give the user the ability to define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code. Once defined, a Perl macro becomes indistinguishable from any other LaTeX macro. PerlTeX thereby combines LaTeX's typesetting power with Perl's programmability."
