Copy the reverse_scaffold file into the script folder of your Rails app.

Let's say you have a users table in your db with the following columns : id, pseudo, email, password

A call to reverse_scaffold :

ruby script/reverse_scaffold users user 

Will execute : 

ruby script/generate scaffold user id:integer pseudo:string email:string password:string



Synopsis

Changes
-------

Basically, modified the script to support Rails 3.2.2 and added a few fixes and features:
	1. Removed Rdoc/Usage because it is not supported on Rails 3.2.2
	2. Fixed the --verbose option. When this option was passed to the program the scaffold was not being generated.
  	3. Removed the id field from the list of fields to be generated
  	4. Modified the way to add a path to $LOAD_PATH to require 'environment'
   	5. Removed the --skip-migration option from the coded command.
   	6. -- skip-migration option is now a program argument.
   	7. Moved the require environment just when necessary to improve responsiveness when not performing the scaffold generation.
   	8. Camelize and underscore are now user's responsability (actually the code that camelized and/or underscored was not working for me so I just removed it... sorry)

TODO:
-----
   1. The table name created by the scaffold does not match the one specified in the table_name program arg. In some situations it would be good to specify a switch to indicate that the table name created in migrations file be the one entered by the user, and also, need to specify in model by set_table_name method.
   2. The set_primary_key is not written in the model created by rails generate scaffold, which means you manually have to write it to make edit/show actions work.
