Shell.js: a javascript shell around files in dropbox (shelljs.com)

The main goal of the web app is to have a shell-like environment with files in the cloud as the "file system" (currently only Dropbox, may add Google Docs later), so we can write scripts that interact with these files easily.

Please leave any comment/suggestions.

p.s. it only accepts javascript syntax right now. Writing a more shell-like parser is a potential TODO.
