I thought Ruby on Rails "script/console" can let me do "render :text => 'hello' " but it says render is not defined?

Call render via helper:

>> helper.render :text => "foo"
=> "foo"

`helper.number_to_currency('123.45')` works, but `helper.render :text => "foo"` doesn't – nonopolarity Jul 29 '10 at 23:03
What version of `Rails` are you using? I tested it with `2.3.4` and `3beta3` check out this gist. http://gist.github.com/499498 – jpemberthy Jul 29 '10 at 23:25
