Dev Tool: Ghost #manage /etc/hosts

## The Ruby community has really been blowing me away lately with their array of indispensable web development tools.

**Ghost** is no exception to this rule. It is a simple command line application for adding and removing 127.0.0.1 entries in your `/etc/hosts` file. I can't believe I hadn't thought of this sooner.

###Example Usage

$ ghost add mydevsite.local[Adding] mydevsite.local -> 127.0.0.1

$ ghost add staging-server.local 67.207.136.164[Adding] staging-server.local -> 67.207.136.164

$ ghost listListing 2 host(s):mydevsite.local -> 127.0.0.1staging-server.local -> 67.207.136.164

$ ghost delete mydevsite.local[Deleting] mydevsite.local

### Installation

sudo gem install ghost

Yes, it's really that easy. Make sure to checkout the [GitHub Repo](http://github.com/bjeanes/ghost) to contribute!
