> Node.js cli helper for VirtualBox management

* * *

vibox is a simple manager for your VirtualBoxes' VMs.

In facts, it's just a wrapper over `VBoxManage`, but simplier **and** with completion (if you enable it).

## Getting Started

Install the module with: `npm install vibox`

To take the benefits of completion, add the following line to your .profile, or .bash_rc, or *whatever* : `which vibox > /dev/null && . "$( vibox --initpath )"`

## Usage

	vibox [options] [command]

	Commands:

    	list [options]					list VMs

	    show [options]  		show information about specific VM

    	start [options]  		start VM

        headless              start VM headlessly (no GUI)

    	stop [options]  		stop VM (if ACPI support is enabled)

	    control   	control VM (start|headless|pause|resume|stop|reset|poweroff)

  	Options:

    	-h, --help     output usage information

	    -V, --version  output the version number

## History

**v0.0.3 (09/05/13):** Add `headless` command & completions for `control` subcommands

## Next…

However it's functionnal, there still some work to do : error handlers, some optimization.

In the future, i'll probably add support to more commands of VBoxManage.
