I want to add quite a few .tt2 pages to the app, in various directories.
I don't want to have to create a Controller action per added template page ( this is the only way I know of adding a web page to a Catalyst app ).
Every time I add a new page I'll have to add a new action to represent that page then restart the server. There must be a way to add as many template pages as required, and have a single Controller action display the web page if it's corresponding template exists, otherwise 404.

/app/example/one
/app/example/two
/app/example/three/a
/app/example/three/b

... each of these urls will map to a respective .tt2 template which the app will just forward to if it exists.

Suppose I had a 100 different ( fairly static content ) web pages - I really don't want to have to create an action for each.

Hope this helps.
