Great - thanks for creating a 2.8.1 version for Play 1.2.x!

I tried the CoffeeScript filter with the following code:

:coffeescript
  alert 'hello world'

This results in the following JavaScript being generated:
<script type='text/javascript'>
  #<![CDATA[
    (function() {
      alert('hello world');
    }).call(this);

  #]]>
</script>
Which doesn't work in Firefox 5.0.1:

Error: illegal character
Source File: http://localhost:9000/
Line: 7, Column: 2
Source Code:
  #<![CDATA[

It doesn't seem to like the # character. I get this error in Safari as well.

Scalate 1.5.2 Highlights
=================

* Upgraded to Scala 2.9.1

* Server side compilation of CoffeeScript in the :coffeescript filter
- many thanks for the patch Dag!

* Provide a Scala 2.8.1 distribution of Scalate (version
1.5.2-scala_2.8.1) for easier Play integration and working with other
Scala 2.8.x projects.

* Minor improvements in the use of the ScalaCompiler to make it easier
to support Lifty as a plugin inside SBT - thanks for the help and
welcome to the team Mads!

* Fixed #260 : Scalate distro does not include all the jars required
for textile support
