  Command syntax examples

  elxr
    Displays help. Same as elxr h

  elxr i
    Runs interactive propmts to help choose installation options.

  NODE_ENV={{yourenvironment}} elxr {{cmd}} {{instancename}} {{otheroptions}}
    General command syntax.
    Eg: NODE_ENV=development elxr pull elixir

    Note : Although {{instancename}} is generally a positional parameter supplied immediately after the cmd for most cmd's. 
      The specific cmd defines what the value is interpreted as.
      There are several cmds that do not require an {{instancename}} parameter.
        Eg: elxr remote remove origin 
          Git operations or passthrough external commands on all repository folders in you working directory.

  Main objectives.
    elxr cli is a wrapper around other shell commands and api based operations.
    One of the main objetives it achives is ease of use of repeating an individual cmd multiple times on all targets.
      Eg: A git operation like pull can be repeated consistently on a set of git repositories.
