EXAMPLE USAGE
Create a new blog in a current directory: ~]$ blaze-init Created a BlazeBlogger repository in .blaze.

Revert a configuration file and default templates to their initial state: ~]$ blaze-init -f Recovered a BlazeBlogger repository in .blaze. Or if you want to see what files have been reverted: ~]$ blaze-init -fV Created .blaze/config Created .blaze/theme/default.html Created .blaze/style/default.css Created .blaze/lang/en_US Recovered a BlazeBlogger repository in .blaze.
