+</li>
+<li>File caching of converted Ruby script support
+</li>
+<li>Auto escaping support
+</li>
+<li>Auto trimming spaces around '&lt;% %&gt;'
+</li>

+</li>
+<li>Enable to handle Processing Instructions (PI) as embedded pattern (ex. '&lt;?rb ... ?&gt;')
+</li>
+<li>Multi-language support (Ruby/PHP/C/Java/Scheme/Perl/Javascript)
+</li>
+<li>Context object available and easy to combine eRuby template with YAML datafile
+</li>
+<li>Print statement available

+Erubis::Eruby class act as the following:
+</p>
+<ul type="disc">
+<li><code>&lt;%= <em>expr</em> %&gt;</code> -  not escaped.
+</li>
+<li><code>&lt;%== <em>expr</em> %&gt;</code> - escaped.

+</li>
+<li><code>&lt;%==== <em>expr</em> %&gt;</code> - ignored.
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Erubis::EscapedEruby<sup>(<a href="#fnref:1" name="fnlink:1">*1</a>)</sup> class handle '&lt;%= %&gt;' as escaped and '&lt;%== %&gt;' as not escaped.
+It means that using Erubis::EscapedEruby you can escape expression by default.
+Also Erubis::XmlEruby class (which is equivalent to Erubis::EscapedEruby) is provided for compatibility with Erubis 1.1.

+It means that you can retrieve Ruby code from eRuby script by '-X' option.
+</p>
+<p>For example, see the following eRuby script.
+This is some complex, so it is difficult to grasp the program code.

+<h3 class="section2">Preprosessing</h3>
+<p>Erubis supports preprocessing of template files.
+Preprocessing make your Ruby on Rails application about 20-40 percent faster.
+To enable preprocessing, set Erubis::Helpers::RailsHelper.preprocessing to true in your 'environment.rb' file.
+</p>
+<p>For example, assume the following template.
+This is slow because link_to() method is called every time when template is rendered.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;%= link_to 'Create', :action=&gt;'create' %&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>The following is faster than the above, but not flexible because url is fixed.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;a href="/users/create"&gt;Create&lt;/a&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>Preprocessing solves this problem.
+If you use '[%= %]' instead of '&lt;%= %&gt;', preprocessor evaluate it only once when template is loaded.
+</p>
+<pre class="program"><strong>[%= link_to 'Create', :action=&gt;'create'%]</strong>
+</pre>
+<p>The above is evaluated by preprocessor and replaced to the following code automatically.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;a href="/users/create"&gt;Create&lt;/a&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>Notice that this is done only once when template file is loaded.
+It means that link_to() method is not called when template is rendered.
+</p>
+<p>If link_to() method have variable arguments, use <code>_?()</code> helper method.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;% for user in @users %&gt;
+[%= link_to <strong>_?('user.name')</strong>, :action=&gt;'show', :id=&gt;<strong>_?('user.id')</strong> %]
+&lt;% end %&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>The above is evaluated by preprocessor when template is loaded and expanded into the following code.
+This will be much faster because link_to() method is not called when rendering.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;% for user in @users %&gt;
+&lt;a href="/users/show/<strong>&lt;%=user.id%&gt;</strong>"&gt;<strong>&lt;%=user.name%&gt;</strong>&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;% end %&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>Preprocessing statement (<code>[% %]</code>) is also available as well as preprocessing expression (<code>[%= %]</code>).
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;select name="state"&gt;
+  &lt;option value=""&gt;-&lt;/option&gt;
+<strong>[% for code in states.keys.sort %]</strong>
+  &lt;option value="<strong>[%= code %]</strong>"&gt;<strong>[%= states[code] %]</strong>&lt;/option&gt;
+<strong>[% end %]</strong>
+&lt;/select&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>The above will be evaluated by preprocessor and expanded into the following when template is loaded.
+In the result, rendering speed will be much faster because for-loop is not executed when rendering.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;select name="state"&gt;
+  &lt;option value=""&gt;-&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="AK"&gt;Alaska&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="AL"&gt;Alabama&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="AR"&gt;Arkansas&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="AS"&gt;American Samoa&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="AZ"&gt;Arizona&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="CA"&gt;California&lt;/option&gt;
+  &lt;option value="CO"&gt;Colorado&lt;/option&gt;
+   ....
+&lt;/select&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>Notice that it is not recommended to use preprocessing with tag helpers,
+because tag helpers generate different html code when form parameter has errors or not.
+</p>
+<p>Helper methods of Ruby on Rails are divided into two groups.
+</p>
+<ul type="disc">
+<li>link_to() or _() (method of gettext package) are not need to call for every time
+   as template is rendered because it returns same value when same arguments are passed.
+   These methods can be got faster by preprocessing.
+</li>
+<li>Tag helper methods should be called for every time as template is rendered
+   because it may return differrent value even if the same arguments are passed.
+   Preprocessing is not available with these methods.
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>In Ruby on Rails 2.0, <code>_?('user_id')</code> is OK but <code>_?('user.id')</code> is NG
+because the latter contains period ('.') character.
+</p>
+<pre class="program">&lt;!-- NG in Rails 2.0, because _?('') contains period --&gt;
+[%= link_to 'Edit', edit_user_path(<strong>_?('@user.id')</strong>) %]
+[%= link_to 'Show', <strong>@user</strong> %]

+<h3 class="section2">Form Helpers for Preprocessing</h3>
+<p><strong>(Experimental)</strong>
+</p>
+<p>Erubis provides form helper methods for preprocessing.
+These are defined in 'erubis/helpers/rails_form_helper.rb'.
+If you want to use it, require it and include Erubis::Helpers::RailsFormHelper in 'app/helpers/applition_helper.rb'
+</p>
+<div class="program_caption">
+app/helpers/xxx_helper.rb</div>
+<pre class="program">require 'erubis/helpers/rails_form_helper'
+module ApplicationHelper
+  include Erubis::Helpers::RailsFormHelper
+end
+</pre>
+<p>Form helper methods defined in Erubis::Helpers::RailsFormHelper are named as 'pp_xxxx'
+('pp' represents preprocessing).
+</p>
+<p>Assume the following view template:
+</p>
+<div class="program_caption">
+_form.rhtml</div>
+<pre class="program"> &lt;p&gt;
+  Name: &lt;%= text_field :user, :name %&gt;
+ &lt;/p&gt;
+ &lt;p&gt;
+  Name: <strong>[%= pp_text_field :user, :name %]</strong>
+ &lt;/p&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>Erubis preprocessor converts it to the following eRuby string:
+</p>
+<div class="program_caption">
+preprocessed</div>
+<pre class="program"> &lt;p&gt;
+  Name: &lt;%= text_field :user, :name %&gt;
+ &lt;/p&gt;
+ &lt;p&gt;
+  Name: <strong>&lt;input id="stock_name" name="stock[name]" size="30" type="text" value="&lt;%=h @stock.name%&gt;" /&gt;</strong>
+ &lt;/p&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>Erubis converts it to the following Ruby code:
+</p>
+<div class="program_caption">
+Ruby code</div>
+<pre class="program"> _buf &lt;&lt; ' &lt;p&gt;
+  Name: '; _buf &lt;&lt; ( text_field :stock, :name ).to_s; _buf &lt;&lt; '
+'; _buf &lt;&lt; ' &lt;/p&gt;
+ &lt;p&gt;
+  Name: &lt;input id="stock_name" name="stock[name]" size="30" type="text" value="'; _buf &lt;&lt; (h @stock.name).to_s; _buf &lt;&lt; '" /&gt;
+ &lt;/p&gt;
+';
+</pre>
+<p>The above Ruby code shows that text_field() is called everytime when rendering,
+but pp_text_field() is called only once when template is loaded.
+This means that pp_text_field() with preprocessing makes view layer very fast.
+</p>
+<p>Module Erubis::Helpers::RailsFormHelper defines the following form helper methods.
+</p>
+<ul type="disc">
+<li>pp_render_partial(basename)
+</li>
+<li>pp_form_tag(url_for_options={}, options={}, *parameters_for_url, &amp;block)
+</li>
+<li>pp_text_field(object_name, method, options={})

+<p>It is recommended to use 'Erubis::Eruby#evaluate(context)' instead of 'Erubis::Eruby#result(binding)' because Ruby's Binding object has some problems.
+</p>
+<ul type="disc">
+<li>It is not able to specify variables to use.
+   Using binding() method, all of local variables are passed to templates.
+</li>
+<li>Changing local variables in templates may affect to varialbes in main program.
+   If you assign '10' to local variable 'x' in templates, it may change variable 'x' in main program unintendedly.
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The following example shows that assignment of some values into variable 'x' in templates affect to local variable 'x' in main program unintendedly.

+<p>This problem is caused because Ruby's Binding class is poor to use in template engine.
+Binding class should support the following features.

+<pre class="program">b = Binding.new     # create empty Binding object
+b['x'] = 1          # set local variables using binding object

+</p>
+<p>A pragmatic solution is to use 'Erubis::Eruby#evaluate(context)' instead of 'Erubis::Eruby#result(binding)'.
+'evaluate(context)' uses Erubis::Context object and instance variables instead of Binding object and local variables.

+<p>Escaping HTML characters (such as '&lt; &gt; &amp; "') makes Erubis more faster than eruby and ERB,
+because Erubis::XmlHelper#escape_xml() works faster than CGI.escapeHTML() and ERB::Util#h().
+The following shows that Erubis runs more than 40 percent (when no-cached) or 90 percent (when cached) faster than eruby if HTML characters are escaped.
