Menu
I am always forced to make my terminal window two dual monitors wide just to see read them right. I'm not a stickler for buttery GUI's, but this is ridiculous.
Is there a pretty print for this command?

rake routes will list all of your defined routes, which is useful for tracking down routing problems in your app, or giving you a good overview of the URLs in an app you're trying to get familiar with.
In Rails, a RESTful route provides a mapping between HTTP verbs, controller actions, and (implicitly) CRUD operations in a database. A single entry in the routing file, such as. map.resources :photos. creates seven different routes in your application: HTTP verb.
EDIT: The answer below was packaged into the html_routes gem which supports Rails 3 and 4.
The code below was made with the current Rails 3.2.3, groups by controller and looks awesome. Remember to change the <Your APP> to your app name and add gem 'syntax' to your Gemfile.
desc 'Pretty print out all defined routes in match order, with names. Target specific controller with CONTROLLER=x.'
task :routes => :environment do
if ENV['CONTROLLER']
all_routes = <Your APP>::Application.routes.select { |route| route.defaults[:controller] == ENV['CONTROLLER'] }
else
all_routes = <Your APP>::Application.routes
end
convertor = Syntax::Convertors::HTML.for_syntax "ruby"
File.open(File.join(Rails.root, "routes.html"), "w") do |f|
f.puts "<html><head><title>Your APP</title>
