+NAME
+ envcon - interact with the domain model through a environment console (on IRB)
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ envcon [environment]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Starts an environment console using IRB that lets you manipulate and interrogate
+ the domain model or even trigger controller actions. The database connection and
+ configuration available to the web application is already setup.
+
+ Tab completion is available to see classes and methods on individual objects.
+
+EXAMPLE
+ envcon production
+
+ This will initialize the production environment (as setup in config/database.yml
+ and config/environments/production.rb). You would now be ready to start requiring
+ models using require_dependency.
