# abbrev-js

Just like [ruby's Abbrev](http://apidock.com/ruby/Abbrev).

Usage:

    var abbrev = require("abbrev");

    abbrev("foo", "fool", "folding", "flop");

    

    // returns:

    { fl: 'flop'

    , flo: 'flop'

    , flop: 'flop'

    , fol: 'folding'

    , fold: 'folding'

    , foldi: 'folding'

    , foldin: 'folding'

    , folding: 'folding'

    , foo: 'foo'

    , fool: 'fool'

    }

This is handy for command-line scripts, or other cases where you want to be able to accept shorthands.
