Guard::Delayed Authors

Ideas for this gem came from Guard::WEBrick.

Guard::Resque Author

Jacques Crocker

I hacked this together from the guard-delayed gem for use with Resque. All credit go to the original authors though. I just search/replaced and tweaked a few things

Guard::ResqueScheduler Author

Dan Nichols

Hacked up Guard::Resque because I needed a simple way to launch the scheduler daemon. Mostly a search/replace, and I removed some of the resque options that didn't apply.
