2847b020b4 Make sure that CDPATH isn't set, as it causes cd to behave unpredictably - notably, it can produce output, which breaks fullpath().
Also: Improved CLI help, updated URLs in read-me, cleaned up package.json:

I've tried to clarify the intent of `-x` in the CLI help, but I haven't touched the read-me in that respect.

I don't see any benefit to `-x`:

* Just using `#/bin/sh` as the shebang line in combination with `-s <shell>` gives you the same functionality,
* When it comes to invoking scripts from _within_ test scripts, nothing can do the work for you: you consciously have to mark the invocation with _something_ to indicate that it should be controlled from the outside; it won't get any easier than `$TEST_SHELL ...`
* Finally, using a shebang line such as `#!/usr/bin/env urchin -x` is problematic for two reasons:
  * Some platforms can handle only *1* argument in a shebang line.
  * In a _package-local_ installation, `#!/usr/bin/env` may not find the Urchin executable.

I'm also not sure how the following (from `readme.md`) fits in the picture:

> It might make sense if you do this.

    export TEST_SHELL=zsh && urchin -x
    export TEST_SHELL=bash && urchin -x

(As an aside: To achieve the same thing, you don't need `export`; `TEST_SHELL=zsh urchin -x`  and `TEST_SHELL=bash urchin -x`  is the better choice.)
How does this relate to use in a  _shebang line_?

`urchin_help()` now uses a here-doc: easier to maintain, and should work in all Bourne-like shells.

`readmeFilename` removed from `package.json`:

1e9611e732 Support for cross-shell testing added, via option -s <shell> and env. variable TEST_SHELL.
* For **tests that _source_ shell scripts**: **option `-s <shell>`** now tells urchin to invoke test scripts with the specified shell (only shebang-less and `#!/bin/sh` tests scripts).
* For **tests that _invoke_ schell scripts**: instruct users to write their tests to always **invoke via environment variable `TEST_SHELL` (e.g., `$TEST_SHELL ../foo`)**, and invoke urchin with that variable defined as needed, e.g., `TEST_SHELL=ksh urchin ./tests`; urchin defaults `TEST_SHELL` to `/bin/sh`.

See updated `readme.md` for details.

deb77cb5de Various bug fixes and cleanup.
* bug fixes:
  * fixed directory-existence argument check
  * fixed how `.urchin_stdout` files are cleaned up
  * fixed instances of error/warning messages outputting to stdout instead of stderr
* documentation, help and error-message improvements:
  * added specific error message if the (non-option) argument is not a directory
  * improved wording of CLI help
  * readme.md: replaced obsolete URL http://www.urchin.sh with https://github.com/scraperwiki/urchin
  * readme.md: made the fact clearer that `./cross-shell-tests` only tests urchin's _own_ cross-shell compatibility
  * HISTORY: fixed typo
* formatting and logging improvements:
  * added timestamp to the beginning of log files (`.urchin.log`)
  * captured output from failed tests is now printed in *red* to draw attention
  * test summary now prints the number of failed tests in the appropriate color for instant feedback (green, if none failed; red, otherwise)
* cleanup
  * removed unused test files, simplified some tests

b95b010c0d Set the exit status to reflect pass/fail.
For Travis compatibility, we set the exit code to non-zero when
any tests fail.

Fixes #5.
