* http://rubyforge.org/projects/cliaws

== DESCRIPTION:

A command-line client for Amazon Web Services.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

* Amazon keys are read from the environment only.  The environment keys must
  be named:  AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
* Minimal amount of error checking is done.  Check the command's status after
  each call.
* No logging.

== SYNOPSIS:

Usage from the command line:

  $ clis3 list my_awesome_bucket/a_glob
  $ clis3 put my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name a_local_file
  $ cat a_local_file | clis3 put my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name
  $ clis3 put --data "this is the data" my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name
  $ clis3 get my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name a_local_file
  $ clis3 get my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name # Outputs to STDOUT
  $ clis3 cat my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name # Outputs to STDOUT, but adds an extra newline
  $ clis3 head my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name
    # Returns a YAML representation of response and metadata headers
  $ clis3 rm my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name

  $ cliec2 launch AMI --keypair KEYPAIR
  $ cliec2 list

Cliaws may also be used from Ruby:

  Cliaws.s3.list("my_awesome_bucket/a_glob") # Returns an array of names
  Cliaws.s3.put(File.open("a_local_file", "rb"), "my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name")
  Cliaws.s3.put(STDIN, "my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name")
  Cliaws.s3.put("this is the data", "my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name")
  Cliaws.s3.get("my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name")
  Cliaws.s3.head("my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name")
  Cliaws.s3.rm("my_awesome_bucket/a_key_name")

  Cliaws.ec2.run("AMI", :keypair => "KEYPAIR")
  Cliaws.ec2.list
