Haml support in Spine without hacking spine

readme.md

Spine & Haml

• Mod the package.json file to include haml-coffe
• run the "npm install ." command to install the lib
• Modify the slug.json to include haml-coffee to provide the lib
• Add the slug.js to the root folder of the app to load up haml support

running hem server should now support finding .haml files in the view folder
