Alien Bind

==========

An implementation of `bind` that does not use `Function.prototype.bind` (alien being the opposite of native).

Motivation

----------

Many libraries such as [underscore.js](http://underscorejs.org/) use the native bind function from `Function.prototype` however some people (ಠ_ಠ [MooTools](http://mootools.net/)) like to overwrite this with a version that only works partially. Use this to be confident that `bind` will work as expected.

Installation

------------

```bash

npm install alien-bind

```

Usage

-----

Example shamelessly stolen from [underscore.js](http://underscorejs.org/#bind).

```javascript

var bind = require('alien-bind')

var func = function (greeting){ return greeting + ': ' + this.name }

func = bind(func, {name: 'moe'}, 'hi')

func()

// => 'hi: moe'

```

Compatibility

-------------

Tests pass in

* IE8+

* Chrome

* Firefox

* Opera
