Hello,

I have an site similar to a wiki, where there is a lot of content  
displayed per page. I was wondering if there was a plugin that would  
automatically add link\_to tags on keywords that I specified and link  
them to the pages that I specify. For example the plugin I would  
identify the keywords and links first;

keyword = “Printer zxy”  
link = /product/printer-zxy

and then it would automatically fill in all the proper links if that  
keyword is displayed in a specified area, like the product  
description. I have searched but have not found anything. If anyone  
has come across a rails plugin that automatically generates links  
based on keywords I would greatly appreciate if you shared it. If not  
I might just have to write something up. Thanks in advance.
