For the following:

"If you have a controller named ‘Entry’, and model named ‘Post’, it can  
be used as follows:

class EntryController \< ApplicationController  
scaffold :post  
end"

[http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Scaffold](http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Scaffold)

Are they saying to create railsProject/app/controllers/entry\_controller?  
And, wouldn’t it be railsProject/app/controllers/entries\_controller?

thanks,
