I don’t seem to have svn worked out totally, but most of the code is
available at:
Basically, without running “script/generate scaffold post” how can I
generate the scaffold for the posts model automagically? I sorta
duplicated http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Scaffold. If the
answer is in that page, pardon, I didn’t see it 
(I want to keep my example a bit simpler than the above web page. My
code availabe at http://strawr.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/, except I’m
still working out subversion syntax so not everything uploaded.)
Here’s what I have:
