Thanks a lot Jonathan for the reply. I did just that but it still
doesn't work out the shortcut even with this code:
*************
default_application='resume'
routes_in = (
('/view', '/resume/default/index'),
)
*************
doing http://localhost:8000/ would redirect to the resume app just
fine, but doing http://localhost:8000/view gives an invalid request
error.
Thanks,
Arbie
