SafariWatir 0.1.0

If you're a Mac-user who has been coveting the power and simplicity of (Windows/IE-only) Watir, your wait is over! It's your turn now! A pre-pre-pre-alpha of SafariWatir has been released. Go ahead and gem install safariwatir, fire up irb and go nuts...

require 'rubygems'
require 'safariwatir'
browser = Watir::Safari.new
browser.goto("http://google.com")
browser.text_field(:name, "q").set("safariwatir")
browser.button(:name, "btnI").click
puts "FAILURE" unless browser.contains_text("Watir on Safari")

There are tons of things missing from this release, but many of the basic Watir actions are in place. The critical missing piece is error messages: If you try to access elements that don't exist on the page, SafariWatir won't complain (yet).
