How to use sandstone with a default template

I may be missing a feature that already exists, but:

In a helper, do something like: 




  def default(options={}, &block)
    options.merge!(:body => capture(&block))
    concat(render(:partial => '/layouts/default', :locals => options), block.binding)
  end

Then in the template, just do:




<% default do%>
...
<% your code %>
...
<% end %>

Then, finally, in the layout (‘/layouts/default’ in this case):

<html > <% the sandstone header stuff %> <body> <%= body %>

Of course the above html would have all of your divs and header/meta stuff.

That way you don’t have to copy and paste it for every page.
