Rails Server Shortcuts

Running this script will create three shortcuts (aliases) on your Server:

• rc - Runs rails console in production
• cdapp - CDs you into the current release of your app (capistrano)
• applogs - Starts tailing the production.log of the current release of your app.

This script follows the ~/apps/appname/current directory structure.
