Gem Quick Starter Template - Hoe Classic Edition

An alternative gem quick starter template - uses the "classic" template from the hoe gem. Try:

$ quik new gem-hoe

This will download and run the quik starter wizard script (quik.rb). Resulting in:

Hello from the gem quick starter wizard script (hoe classic edition)

Q: Name of the gem? [hola]: hola

Thanks! Ready-to-go. Stand back.

    test_klass: "TestHola"

Done.

Resulting in:

├── lib
|   └── hola.rb
├── test
|   └── test_hola.rb
├── History.txt
├── Manifest.txt
├── Rakefile
└── README.txt

Note: The script also works with module names - use the "standard" gem naming patterns/convention e.g. use mundo-hola for Mundo::Hola and so on. Resulting in:

hola
├── bin
|   └── mundo_hola
├── lib
|   └── mundo
|       └── hola.rb
├── test
|   └── mundo
|       └── test_hola.rb
├── History.txt
├── Manifest.txt
├── Rakefile
└── README.txt

That's it.
