# Coals

Built to ease the pain of navigating a large collection of rake tasks. Simply type `coals` from a project root and
coals will walk you through the available groups, tasks, and any necessary arguments to run the command.

Features:
* See all rake tasks in your project in an organized format.
* Easily find the task you're looking for.
* No need to dig through the code to recall what arguments a task requires
* Verification step so you can see the fully constructed command before execution.
* TODO: Configurable execution prefix (`bundle exec`(default), `zeus rake`, etc..)
* TODO: Aliases for common task arguments, e.g.
```
$ coals --set-alias me timmehs@github.com
Coals alias "me" set to timmehs@github.com
```
* TODO: Colors and Formatting
* TODO: Command help docs
