Ungenerate Stuffs in rails

Rails 'generators' makes it quite easy to create basic model, controller, helper & test skeleton files

But lately I found that it is equally easy to clear files created by generator by using DESTROY.

Example

ruby script/destroy controller XXXX

Will remove all files dumped by rails for command ruby script/generate controller XXXX

ruby script/destroy scaffold XXXX

Will remove all files dumped by rails for command ruby script/generate scaffold XXXX
