Using ERB in a Hobo app isn't "wrong": the agility tutorial uses ERB
to render mail for example.

DRYML can certainly be used to render non-HTML files.  Most of the
tags in RAPID will add extraneous carriage returns, but most of the
tags in RAPID are useless in a non-HTML context anyways.

Did you try a simple `render :partial => 'name'`.   If that doesn't
work, please raise a bug on the lighthouse.   Hobo generally uses
"parts" rather than partials, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a
bug in there somewhere.

If that doesn't work, try `render :file => 'filename'`.

Another option is `render :text => Dryml.render(File.open('filename'),
{}, 'filename')`.  This requires the dryml-split branch (which will be
rolled into Hobo 1.1).
