I mean, a tool can be really useful (I write tools this size all the time) but some of them needs tweaks forever. I just think some 'tweaks' are already solved by other projects, that's why using already written tools that are somewhat UNIX-y sounds like a good idea to me. That's what I tried to say; of course I don't want you to write a 100% complete program in the first commit, that would make everything I write look really bad in comparison. Just be prepared for that pull request that lands basic auth in your project, and the next PR after that :)

Oh, here's the programmer who never makes mistakes.
