Ruby foreman

Foreman is a commandline tool that lets you run/coordinate/manage several processes at once.
For example, starting a webserver, database server, and redis all at once.

• signals repeated to child processes
• logs are prefixed and colourized to show which process is talking
• process startup is configurable (say you want to use with 2x workers instead of 1x)
