## 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!
