There seems to be a discussion about this sort of thing every other week or so, and I'm always surprised that no one mentions Cheetah Templates (www.cheetahtemplate.org). It's useful for both web and non-Web applications, and has a straightforward syntax that pretty much *is* Python. For web programming, it can be used for straight up CGI, or in a mod_python type setup. I have used it several times and really enjoyed it.
There's alot of work being done right now in preparation for a 2.0 release, so the web site should be very up to date, as well as the tutorial / user's guide. Check it out!
