# Using the information available in the new iOS8 simulator for each 
# device/runtime (device.plist), this script creates a readable folder structure
# (no UDIDs, just simple device/runtime names). Inside that structure it creates
# soft links to your apps in development.
#
# You can run this script every time you install an app to your simulator, or
# you can simply call it to access this folder making sure it will always be
# updated :)
