Summary

extend chicken-install functionality

Metadata

Description

Stephen Eilert suggested the following:

-update-all: this would update all installed eggs to their newest versions.

-outdated: Instead of blindly updating, you'd be able to check which eggs are out-of-date

-list [[name]|]: This would query the eggs available, preferably with a quick summary (similar to the current eggs page). The optional name argument would allow a filter.

-stale: Got the idea from rubygems. It would basically list the local eggs with their last atime. Might be helpful for when we reach a thousand gems ;)
