# Autorespawn

Autorespawn is an implementation of the popular autoreload scheme, which reloads
Ruby program files when they change, but instead execs/spawns the underlying
program again. This avoids common issues related to the load mechanism.

## Usage

Require all the files you need autorespawn to watch and then do

~~~
Autorespawn.autorespawn do
   # Add the program's functionality here
end
~~~

If you touch ARGV and $0, you will want to pass the program and arguments
explicitely

~~~
Autorespawn.autorespawn 'program', 'argument0', 'argument1' do
end
~~~

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'autorespawn'
```

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install autorespawn
