# Chrome Refresh
#
# Simple applescript browser reloader for Google Chrome. It will either open a
# new tab with the url passed in as an argument, refresh an existing tab, or open
# a file from your current working directory.
#
# Link this up with watchr to auto-refresh browser windows when you save files
# or bind it in vim, textmate etc.
#
# Example install:
#
# $ echo $PATH
# /Users/nik/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
# $ cd ~/bin/
# $ ln -s ~/Projects/applescript/chrome-refresh.sh cr
# $ cr localhost:3333/admin/posts
# 13:53:35 Opening http://localhost:3333/admin/posts
#
# link to watchr:
#
# $ watchr -e "watch( '\w+/.*\.py' ) { system('cr localhost:3333') }"
# (edit a file and save..)
# 14:00:23 Opening http://localhost:3333
#
# watchr is easy to install:
#
# $ sudo gem install watchr
#
# 2-clause BSD license all this, do what you want with it.
