Option to use another web server #12

Closed benatkin closed 13 years ago

Mongrel didn't install on OS X. Rather than go through the trouble to figure out why, I installed thin, and made serve fall back to it.

It's possible that someone on another system could have Thin fail to install but Mongrel install. For this reason, I think that for this type of project it would make sense to allow for more than one web server.

Awesome. Applied.
