What are you trying to do exactly? Are you just trying to render a
template directly? The closest thing to what you are trying there
would be something like this:
template = "#{MERB_VIEW_ROOT}/articles/index.html.erb"
engine = Merb::Template.engine_for(template)
body = engine.transform(:file => template, :view_context =>
ViewContext.new(self))
The self in the ViewContext.new(self) is a controller instance so
this code would need to go in your controller somewhere.
