This is chutney.  It doesn't do much so far.  It isn't ready for prime-time.

If it breaks, you get to keep all the pieces.

It is supposed to be a good tool for:
  - Configuring a testing tor network
  - Launching and monitoring a testing tor network
  - Running tests on a testing tor network

Right now it only sorta does the first two.

You will need, at the moment:
  - Tor installed somewhere in your path or the location of the 'tor' and
    'tor-gencert' binaries specified through the environment variables
    CHUTNEY_TOR and CHUTNEY_TOR_GENCERT, respectively.
  - Python 2.7 or later

Stuff to try:
  ./chutney configure networks/basic
  ./chutney start networks/basic
  ./chutney status networks/basic
  ./chutney hup networks/basic
  ./chutney stop networks/basic

The configuration files:
  networks/basic holds the configuration for the network you're configuring
  above.  It refers to some torrc template files in torrc_templates/.

The working files:
  chutney sticks its working files, including all data directories, log
  files, etc, in ./net/.  Each tor instance gets a subdirectory of net/nodes.
