Firstly:
As noted in the documentation, you can specify the erb out variable in
the call to ERB.new:
http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/erb/rdoc/classes/ERB.html#M000301
If you don't have control over that, you can look at the source and
see what (if any) name they are supplying and use that.


Secondly:
After I asked to have "puts" work almost 5 years ago, people on the
list
helped create a patch to ERB to allow print and puts to concatenate to
this string. See [1] below. This was followed by some discussion
(again prompted by me) for a RCR to allow this to work. See [2] below.
The discussion there is probably worth reading before we dive into
this again.
