So, erb doesn't have any 'include' operation. If your file is just
static text, this should work:
<%= File.open('/path/to/file').read %>
If it has actual ERB content, life is more difficult.
As an alternative, some folks use one of the various 'concat' file
modules, like the one by R.I.Pienaar, or the providerised version
recently posted to the dev list, that allows you to construct the
final file on the client.
