My first proposal for how to fix this is simply to have script/generate scaffold return to doing <%= form(@product) %> instead of writing out the individual lines. Yes, it is kinda neat to have that, but the pain is not worth it.
Except... it's really nice to be able to modify the generated form when you're demoing the application. If you went this approach, why not just use a dynamic 'scaffold :product' line ?
Maybe the step is to break the form stuff out from the rest
I'm not sure what pain you're trying to save, though.
This affects page 98 of the book, but that should probably be rewritten using form_for instead anyway.
Don't worry about the book: the first half is a total rewrite anyway... :)
