[erlang-questions] Can epp_dodge:parse accept a ram_file?

[Bengt Kleberg]

Greetings,

The documentation for file:open/2 says that the ram option will give "an
fd() which lets the file module operate on the data in-memory as if it
is a file."
We are not assured that epp_dodger:parse/3 will accept it. Your test
seems to show that it does not.

Have you tried the fd() from ram with the io module, too?
