I'm new to Rails and I'm glad I don't have to start pluralizing everything. I did find, unfortunately, that this option is not honored correctly by the new scaffold generator in Rails 2.0.2. It created an index view that references (plural) @things, which is nil because the corresponding controller's index method creates a (singular) @thing variable. Oh well. Thanks for the tip.

Maybe it also had to do with the fact that I needed a symbolic link on my mac from /opt/local/bin/ruby to ruby.exe!!!! for radrails to do anything. Thanks for the code above though, I'll add it manually.

You know with names like TLC_ACR_ONYM_TABLE_WTF and it was hard enough as it was to 'guess' what model name would be generated.... yup thanks a lot. i was cursing because i have an existing schema.

Easily turned off though so don’t let it put you off rails. Yeah that can be a pretty irritating feature. Easily turned off though so don’t let it put you off rails.
