Route with optional segments

In Rails 2.3.5, is this the proper way to do this?

  map.calls "calls/:group/:view/:subselect", :controller => 'calls', :action => 'index'   map.calls "calls/:group/:view", :controller => 'calls', :action => 'index'   map.calls "calls/:group", :controller => 'calls', :action => 'index'   map.calls "calls", :controller => 'calls', :action => 'index'

I want to accept

/calls /calls/abc /calls/abc/def /calls/abc/def/ghi

where "group" would be assigned "abc" in cases 2-4, "view" would be assigned "def" in cases 3 and 4, and subselect would be assigned "ghi" in case 4.

I kept trying to do something like:

  /calls(/%group(/%view(/%subselect)?)?)?

but never got it to work.

Thank you, pedz
