Usage

If you have your autoloader, update namespaces and drop the files into your frameworks library.

For people that do not have that setup, you can visit http://getcomposer.org to install composer on your system. After installation simply run composer install in the parent directory of this distribution to generate vendor/ directory with a cross-system autoloader.

Please see Examples directory for a simple run down of functionality.
