A set of helper modules to make making a Guard plugin easier.

Include this for some useful default behavior and scaffolding for your Guard plugin, such as nested directory support and removal of deleted files. It gives your Gaurd plugin the following options:

• output [string] -- (required) directory to output compiled files in
• exclude [regex] -- paths to exclude
• all_on_start [boolean] -- whether to compile all files on startup
• all_on_change [boolean] -- whether to compile all files whenever a single file changes

guard 'stylus', :output => 'build', :all_on_start => true, :all_on_change => true do
  watch(%r{^src/(.+\.styl)$})
end

will compile files matching the regex ^src/(.+\.styl)$ and write the compiled output in build/\1 (e.g., src/foo/bar.styl goes to build/foo/bar.css.

A module taken from guard/guard-coffeescript to make making pretty notificaitons easier.
