I just want to know how to create URL pattern in routes.py, what i really
want to understand is, how to parse parameters in URL patterns like the
one, Massimo showed in his example --
*('/article/(?P<id>\d+)' , '/appname/default/article/$id')*
*(?P<id>\d+) *
*
*
I would be really helpful if I could get any references.
