[Catalyst] Handel Demo

[Christopher H. Laco]

Here's where I stand on this. After some discussion on IRC, I was 
pointed to various things like Scaffold and Protoype. I asked a lot of 
questions and eventually got mt beirings.

Protoype works as a base helper:

	create.pl Prototype

while Scaffold is under the controller umbrella:

	create.pl controller Scaffold

I came to the [possibly unpopular] conclusion that I wanted 
Handel::Scaffold to be a base helper since it creates more than just a 
controller. I also reasonsed that Scaffold really shouldn't be under 
controller either because it creates a controller AND view particles.

After hacking around yesterday, I have:

	create.pl Handel::Scaffold

This creates:

	::C::Cart
	::M::Cart
	root/view.tt

it currently views, adds, updates, deletes, emptyies/clears the cart.


I need to the the same for checkout.

I'm also contimplating having the scaffold create a default viw to go 
along with the templates, and use it in cart::end so the 
Handel::Scaffold really is self contained and Just Works, aside from 
created the db.

When it's all said and done, there's still the issue of 
style/images/look/feel.  I get the feeling that scaffolds are starter 
code kits, not finished things, so I'm unsure if I should style anything 
or what to do with images.
