## Find Resource

This Rails plugin creates a finder method in your controller, based on  
the controller name. For instance, if your controller was called  
PostsController, a find\_post method would be created. A before\_filter is  
also added for the show, edit, update and destroy actions.

For (lots) more information please see  
[http://dev.turnipspatch.com/trac/wiki/FindResource](http://dev.turnipspatch.com/trac/wiki/FindResource)

Any feedback is very welcome.

Cheers,

Jon
