Command Builder

command-builder builds command runnable from shell by simple and ellegant way. Also allows both synchronous executing or asynchronous one using EventMachine. Here is an real example of call to jpegoptim:

```ruby
require "command-builder"
cmd = CommandBuilder::new(:jpegoptim)

cmd.arg(:m, 2)
cmd << :preserve
cmd << "image.jpg"

cmd.to_s    # will return 'jpegoptim -m 2 --preserve image.jpg'
```

Value escaping and assignments are supported automatically of sure, so call:

```ruby
cmd.arg(:dest, './it\'s "my" folder')
```

…will be interpreted as jpegoptim --dest="it's \"my\" folder". It also takes spaces into the account.

Executing

Command can be executed directly by call:

cmd.execute!               # for synchronous executing or...
cmd.execute do |output|    # ...for asynchronous executing
    # ...
end

Asynchronous executing requires EventMachine environment to be run.

Flexibility

Syntax described above is supported by default, but you can achieve for example an Windows like syntax:

jpegoptim /m:2 -dest "directory"

…simply by assigning:

```ruby
cmd.separators = ["/", ":", "-", " "]
```

For illustration, the default one is ["-", " ", "--", "="].
