Message:

checking in server.rb refactor, split into config.rb boot_loader.rb, integrated Merb.root stuff. This will probably break a few small things and maybe some plugins but bear with me as this is a needed change. do not use Merb::Server.config[:foo] anymore, instead use Merb::Config[:foo], do not use MERB_ROOT anymore use Merb.root instead

    112112Merb controllers inherit from Merb::Controller and contain built in view/template rendering. 
    …… 
    118118you are going to want to end your functions with a call to +render+.  By default, +render+ will 
    119119render the view template associated with your action (in default merb that would be  
    120 MERB_ROOT/app/views/<controller>/<action>.html.erb - see the View section for more info.) 
    121  
    122 Controllers can be generated by calling MERB_ROOT/script/generate controller ControllerName. 
    123 By default, generated controllers inherit from the Application class (MERB_ROOT/app/controllers/application.rb) 
     120Merb.root/app/views/<controller>/<action>.html.erb - see the View section for more info.)

     122Controllers can be generated by calling Merb.root/script/generate controller ControllerName. 
     123By default, generated controllers inherit from the Application class (Merb.root/app/controllers/application.rb) 
    124124which itself inherits from Merb:Controller.  Application is a good place to put code pertinent to all controllers. 
    125125An example would be setting a filter to check if a user is logged in or to preload user data for each controller.

    183183A view can be loosely defined as any data sent back to the client (a "view" of your data.) 
    …… 
    186186By default, a call to +render+ without any options renders the view template associated 
    187187with that controller action.  Using the default ERB templating system, this means that a 
    188 call to +render+ in Posts#index would render the file MERB_ROOT/app/views/posts/index.html.erb

    194194Layouts are generic templates in which your specific view templates are rendered.  A sample 
    …… 
    206206 
    207207By default, +render+ will look for a corresponding layout for your controller in the form 
    208 of MERB_ROOT/app/views/layout/<controller>.html.erb .  If no specific layout is present, 
    209 +render+ will attempt to use MERB_ROOT/app/view/layout/application.html.erb 
     208of Merb.root/app/views/layout/<controller>.html.erb .  If no specific layout is present, 
     209+render+ will attempt to use Merb.root/app/view/layout/application.html.erb
