Eerie, package manager for Io

Eerie is an attempt to create feature-full package manager for Io, due to lack of working and usable package managers.
Eerie is modelled after Rip which means that there is no central repository of packages, and that environments
are used as a tool for switching between different versions.

How to install

$ git clone git://github.com/josip/eerie.git
$ cd eerie
$ io setup.io
# Close current terminal session and start a new one or reload your profile
$ . ~/.bash_profile

Eerie currently ships with a simple eerie command which can do all sorts exciting of things!

$ eerie install git://github.com/josip/generys.git

That will, for example, install the Generys package! How exciting!
For a complete guide on installing and using Eerie check out its web site.
