Rails - Sep 2005 - .rail directory on windows XP

Hi all,

If I type D:\rails\cookbook>ruby script\generate --help at the command
line I get various useful information including this

More are available at http://rubyonrails.org/show/Generators
1. Download, for example, login_generator.zip
2. Unzip to directory C:\Documents and
Settings\sam_admin/.rails/generators/login
to use the generator with all your Rails apps
or to D:/rails/cookbook/script/generators/login
to use with this app only.
3. Run generate with no arguments for usage information
script/generate login

However, I have no such .rails directory on my system. Does anybody know
what happens to this directory on windows - I''ve searched my whole hard
drive for it and get nothing, but rails all runs fine ...

Many thanks in advance.

CHEERS> SAM

The .rails directory is optional and not created automatically. The help is
just telling you that if you create a .rails directory inside of your user
directory then you can place the generator files there, otherwise place them
in the global rails directory.
