+Alegscogs Helpers
+-----------------
+
+Some views helpers for Rails3 apps that I've found useful.
+
+phrasify()
+----------
+
+Takes collections of strings and arrays of strings as arguments, and tries to output meaningful phrases.
+
+This is particularly useful when you have dynamic content that has to be rendered in well-constructed phrases.
+
+
+    phrasify 'on', 'jan 4th'
+    # => 'on jan 4th'
+    
+    phrasify 'on', ['jan 4th']
+    # => 'on jan 4th'
+    
+    phrasify 'on', ['jan 4th', 'dec 8th'] 
+    # => 'on jan 4th and dec 8th'
+    
+    phrasify 'on', ['jan 4th', 'dec 8th', 'march 20th'] 
+    # => 'on jan 4th, dec 8th, and march 20th'
+    
+    phrasify ['on', 'between'], ['jan 4th']             
+    # => 'on jan 4th'
+    
+    phrasify ['on', 'between'], ['jan 4th', 'dec 8th']  
+    # => 'between jan 4th and dec 8th'
+
+Phrasify invokes rails' Array#to_sentence, and takes its options: 
+
+    phrasify 'on', ['jan 4th', 'dec 8th'], {:last_word_connector => ' or ', :two_words_connector => ' or '}
+    # => 'on jan 4th or dec 8th'
+    
+    phrasify ['on', 'on either'], ['jan 4th', 'dec 8th', 'march 20th'], {:last_word_connector => ' or ', :two_words_connector => ' or '}
+    # => 'on either jan 4th, dec 8th, or march 20th'
+
+Nested arrays will be exploded and passed recursively as arguments:
+
+    phrasify 'on', ['jan 4th', [['on the morning of', 'on the mornings of'], ['jan 5th', 'jan 6th']]] 
+    # => 'on jan 4th and on the mornings of jan 5th and jan 6th'
+
+An introductory string followed by an empty array returns nil, or gets ignored in the case of nested arguments:
+
+    phrasify 'on', []
+    # => nil
+
+    phrasify 'on', ['jan 4th', []]
+    # => 'on jan 4th'
+
+When phrasify is passed a single array, optionally followed by an options hash, after attempting to resolve any nested phrases, it will invoke #to_sentence on the resulting array of strings.  In this case, passing a :join option will cause Array#join to be used instead of Array#to_sentence, with the value of the join option passed as parameters to the join call.
+
+    use_or = {:last_word_connector => ' or ', :two_words_connector => ' or '}
+    phrasify( [
+      'Sorry!  There are no search results for', 
+      [['Theater', 'Art & Entertainment'], use_or], 
+      'events', 
+      [['on', 'between'], ['jan 4th', 'jan 15th']],
+      ['that', [
+          ['are good for', [], use_or],
+          ['happen in the', ['morning', 'afternoon'], use_or],
+          ['cost', [], use_or]
+        ]],
+    ], {:join => ' '}) 
+    # => 'Sorry!  There are no search results for Theater or Art & Entertainment 
+    #     events between jan 4th and jan 15th that happen in the morning or afternoon'
