I made my own Ghost Wheel library for generating parsers:

   http://rubyforge.org/projects/ghostwheel/

It's still young, so I'm sure it has rough edges but I've used it for  
a few tasks now.  The documentation hasn't been written yet, but I did  
show a sample of usage on my blog:

You may also want to look at the Treetop parser:

Hope that helps.
