SimplyTabby
===========

This plugin takes advantage of a Rails 2.0 feature, 'Multiple Controller View Paths'.

tab·by –noun:
a spiteful female gossip or tattler.

SimplyTabby is a plugin which collects system information, only to turn around and
"be a tabby".

This plugin renders system information in <!-- HTML comments -->.

To Add/remove additional system information.  Add the following to environment.rb
where :type is either :crypt or :public.  Items under :crypt will be encrypted, so
the general public cannot view their contents.  See section A. in appendix for
decryption instructions.
  SimplyTabby.remove_system_information(:type, :environment)
  SimplyTabby.add_system_information(:type, {:database_adapter => ActiveRecord::Base.configurations[RAILS_ENV]['adapter']})

Example
=======

To use SimplyTabby, include the following code in your layout just before </body>.
  <%= SimplyTabby.do_tell %>

Dependencies
============

Ezcrypto rubygem version 0.7.2.  If you do not have ezcrypto installed the encrypted section will not show.

Appendix
========

A. Decryption:

Run the following task to decrypt SimplyTabby's OpenSSL object.
