Well, I think I found out the trick finally. It seems that if I put the 
data lines before any other text, AND make sure that none of the other 
output contains any colons, then Hobbit picks it up:

My message file looks like:
cpu : {CPUTotal5Min}

{CPUTotal5Min.color} {CPUTotal5Min.msg}


And the output looks like:
cpu : 2

&green  CPU utilization is nominal


If I put the data after the status, it stops updating the rrd file. I 
had to remove the lines that normally report uptime since they contained 
colons for the date. Not sure if there's any way to escape those, but I 
can live without that info being displayed.

I don't suppose you know what DS value I'd have to send to Hobbit for 
the memory graphs? I've tried using realmempct, real, memory.real, but I 
guess I'll have to ask over in the Hobbit list to see if it's possible.
