<p><code>cake</code> is a simplified version of <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/make/">Make</a>
(<a href="http://rake.rubyforge.org/">Rake</a>, <a href="http://github.com/280north/jake">Jake</a>)
for CoffeeScript. You define tasks with names and descriptions in a Cakefile,
and can call them from the command line, or invoke them from other tasks.</p>
<p>Running <code>cake</code> with no arguments will print out a list of all the tasks in the
current directorys Cakefile.</p>

asynchrony may cause tasks to execute in a different order than youd expect.
If no tasks are passed, print the help screen. Keep a reference to the
