Examples

$ cat ./data/x.file | lbl -r ./scripts/X.js
<>
> XX
> Matched 1 from 3

$ printf 'x\\nXX\\nxXx' | lbl -e 'x => { n++; if (x.match(/^X/)) { log(chalk.yellow('> ') + x); f++; } }' -b '() => { $.n = 0; $.f = 0; log('<>'); }' -a '() => { log('> Matched ' + f + ' from ' + n); }'
<>
> XX
> Matched 1 from 3
```

### Sample Module File

```js
'use strict';
/* global $, log, chalk, n:true, f:true */

module.exports = {
each: x => {
n++;
if (x.match(/^X/)) {
log(chalk.yellow('> ') + x);
f++;
}
},
before: () => {
$.n = 0;
$.f = 0;
log('<>');
},
after: () => {
log('> Matched ' + f + ' from ' + n);
}
};
