Introducing the DRb_fileserver and DRb_fileclient gems

To start the fileserver simply run the following:

require 'drb_fileserver'

DRbFileServer.new.start

require 'drb_fileclient'

file = DRbFileClient.new

# reading a file
s = file.read 'mycoins.txt'

# writing a file
file.write 'hello.txt', 'hello world'

Note: To run the drb_fileserver on another machine you will need to specify the named keyword host address e.g. DRbFileServer.new(host: '192.168.4.135').start where 192.168.4.135 is the IP address of the machine running the fileserver code. Likewise the client would also need to specify the host address of the fileserver e.g. DRbFileClient.new(host: '192.168.4.135').
