Bones
    by Tim Pease
    <http://codeforpeople.rubyforge.org/bones>

== DESCRIPTION:

Mr Bones is a handy tool that builds a skeleton for your new Ruby projects.
The skeleton contains some starter code and a collection of rake tasks to
ease the management and deployment of your source code. Mr Bones is not
viral -- all the code your project needs is included in the skeleton (no
gem dependency required).

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

Mr Bones provides the following rake tasks:

  clobber              # Remove all build products
  doc                  # Alias to doc:rdoc
  doc:rdoc             # Build the rdoc HTML Files
  doc:release          # Publish RDoc to RubyForge
  doc:rerdoc           # Force a rebuild of the RDOC files
  doc:ri               # Generate ri locally for testing
  gem                  # Alias to gem:package
  gem:debug            # Show information about the gem
  gem:gem              # Build the gem file
  gem:install          # Install the gem
  gem:package          # Build all the packages
  gem:release          # Package and upload to RubyForge
  gem:repackage        # Force a rebuild of the package files
  gem:uninstall        # Uninstall the gem
  manifest:check       # Verify the manifest
  manifest:create      # Create a new manifest
  notes                # Enumerate all annotations
  notes:fixme          # Enumerate all FIXME annotations
  notes:optimize       # Enumerate all OPTIMIZE annotations
  notes:todo           # Enumerate all TODO annotations
  spec:rcov            # Run all specs with RCov
  spec:run             # Run all specs with basic output
  spec:specdoc         # Run all specs with text output
  test:rcov            # Run rcov on the unit tests
  test:run             # Run tests for run

The rake tasks in the Mr Bones framework can be found in the "tasks"
directory. Add your own tasks there when you need more functionality.

== SYNOPSIS:

To create a new "Get Fuzzy" project:

  bones get_fuzzy

If a new release of Mr Bones comes out with better features the "Get Fuzzy"
project will need to be updated:

  bones --update get_fuzzy

And if you ever get confused about what Mr Bones can do:

  bones --help

== REQUIREMENTS:

Mr Bones does not have any "requirements", but if you do not have the
following gems installed you will not get all that Mr Bones has to offer.

* rubyforge - for easy gem publishing to rubyforge.org
* rcov - for code coverage testing
* rspec - if that's the way you roll

== INSTALL:

* sudo gem install bones


See the Mr Bones webpage for more information and a little manual.
