binary named "fontello" is to generic, it may lead to conflict with other packages. #10

Hi,

I have been confused why "Installation instructions from README" are not working. Why "fontello --help" says nothing about "convert".

But I found the problem:

$ which fontello /usr/local/bin/fontello

$ls -la /usr/local/bin/fontello /usr/local/bin/fontello -> ../lib/node_modules/fontello/bin/fontello

There is another exacutable file "fontello" from some "NodeJS" package.

Maybe better would be rename binary "fontello" to something more specific like "fontello_rails_converter".

Tomas PS: Thank you for nice tool.

Since I haven't experienced this problem I fear that I won't put any time into a fix. And even if somebody else would implement it, it would break the gem for all current users, so I'm a little sceptical. Closing this issue for now, unless other user experience the same problem.
