Luc, Damien, et all.

I implemented the kind of API Luc suggested, which was a great idea. I took also his API to answer Damien question of could we do a "tail -f" example. So I made a little example where I run "tail -f system.log" and I keep a Playground updated with the stdout :)

Here is the video:

Let me know what do you think.

Cheers,

defaultReadStreamCreationBlock: [ process createTempFileToBeUsedAsReadStreamOn: '/tmp' ];

In the readme, the piece of code containing that is a bit suspicious because it depends on the fact that the block is evaluated after the variable 'process' is assigned.

Thanks, fixed!
I always hated the instance side nature of those methods, so I moved them to class side.
