	/**
	 * @class steal
	 * @parent stealjs
	 * 
	 * __steal__ is a function that loads scripts, css, and 
	 * other resources into your application.
	 * 
	 *     steal(FILE_or_FUNCTION, ...)
	 * 
	 * ## Quick Walkthrough
	 * 
	 * Add a script tag that loads <code>steal/steal.js</code> and add
	 * the path to the first file to load in the query string like:
	 * 
	 * &lt;script type='text/javascript'
	 *     src='../steal/steal.js?myapp/myapp.js'>
	 * &lt;/script>
	 * 
	 * Then, start loading things and using them like:
	 * 
	 *     steal('myapp/tabs.js',
	 *           'myapp/slider.js', 
	 *           'myapp/style.css',function(){
	 *     
	 *        // tabs and slider have loaded 
	 *        $('#tabs').tabs();
	 *        $('#slider').slider()
	 *     })
	 * 
	 * Make sure your widgets load their dependencies too:
	 * 
	 *     // myapp/tabs.js
	 *     steal('jquery', function(){
	 *       $.fn.tabs = function(){
	 *        ...
	 *       }
	 *     })
	 * 
	 * ## Examples:
	 * 
	 *     // Loads ROOT/jquery/controller/controller.js
	 *     steal('jquery/controller')
	 *     steal('jquery/controller/controller.js')
	 *     
	 *     // Loads coffee script type and a coffee file relative to
	 *     // the current file
	 *     steal('steal/coffee').then('./mycoffee.coffee')
	 *     
	 *     // Load 2 files and dependencies in parallel and
	 *     // callback when both have completed
	 *     steal('jquery/controller','jquery/model', function(){
	 *       // $.Controller and $.Model are available
	 *     })
	 *     
	 *     // Loads a coffee script with a non-standard extension (cf)
	 *     // relative to the current page and instructs the build
	 *     // system to not package it (but it will still be loaded).
	 *     steal({
	 *        src: "./foo.cf",
	 *        packaged: false,
	 *        type: "coffee"
	 *      })
	 * 
	 * The following is a longer walkthrough of how to install
	 * and use steal:
	 * 
	 * ## Adding steal to a page
	 * 
	 * After installing StealJS (or JavaScriptMVC), 
	 * find the <code>steal</code> folder with
	 * <code>steal/steal.js</code>. 
	 * 
	 * To use steal, add a script tag
	 * to <code>steal/steal.js</code> to your
	 * html pages.  
	 * 
	 * This walkthrough assumes you have the steal script 
	 * in <code>public/steal/steal.js</code> and a directory 
	 * structure like:
	 * 
	 * @codestart text
	 * /public
	 *     /steal
	 *     /pages
	 *         myapp.html
	 *     /myapp
	 *         myapp.js
	 *         jquery.js
	 *         jquery.ui.tabs.js
	 * @codeend
	 * 
	 * To use steal in <code>public/pages/myapp.html</code>,
	 * add a script tag in <code>myapp.html</code>:
	 * 
	 * @codestart html
	 * &lt;script type='text/javascript'
	 *     src='../steal/steal.js'>
	 * &lt;/script>
	 * @codeend
	 * 
	 * <div class='whisper'>PRO TIP: Bottom load your scripts. It
	 * will increase your application's percieved response time.</div>
	 * 
	 * ## Loading the First Script
	 * 
	 * Once steal has been added to your page, it's time
	 * to load scripts. We want to load <code>myapp.js</code>
	 * and have it load <code>jquery.js</code> and 
	 * <code>jquery.ui.tabs.js</code>.
	 * 
	 * By default, steal likes your scripts
	 * to be within in the [steal.static.root steal.root] folder.  The [steal.root] the 
	 * folder contains the <code>steal</code> folder.  In this example,
	 * it is the <code>public</code> folder.
	 * 
	 * To load <code>myapp/myapp.js</code>, we have two options:
	 * 
	 * #### Add a script tag
	 *  
	 * Add a script tag after the steal 
	 * script that 'steals' <code>myapp.js</code> like:
	 * 
	 * @codestart html
	 * &lt;script type='text/javascript'>
	 *   steal('myapp/myapp.js')
	 * &lt;/script>
	 * @codeend
	 * 
	 * #### Add the script parameter
	 * 
	 * The most common (and shortest) way to load <code>myapp.js</code>
	 * is to add the script path to the steal script's src after in the
	 * query params.  So, instead of adding a script, we change 
	 * the steal script from:
	 * 
	 * @codestart html
	 * &lt;script type='text/javascript'
	 *     src='../steal/steal.js'>
	 * &lt;/script>
	 * @codeend
	 * 
	 * To
	 * 
	 * @codestart html
	 * &lt;script type='text/javascript'
	 *     src='../steal/steal.js?<b>myapp/myapp.js</b>'>
	 * &lt;/script>
	 * @codeend
	 * 
	 * <div class='whisper'>PRO TIP: You can also just add
	 * <code>?myapp</code> to the query string.</div>
	 * 
	 * ## Loading Scripts
	 * 
	 * We want to load <code>jquery.js</code> and
	 * <code>jquery.ui.tabs.js</code> into the page and then
	 * add then create a tabs widget.  First we need to load 
	 * <code>jquery.js</code>.
	 * 
	 * By default, steal loads script relative to [steal.root]. To
	 * load <code>myapp/jquery.js</code> we can the following to
	 * <code>myapp.js</code>:
	 * 
	 *     steal('myapp/jquery.js');
	 *     
	 * But, we can also load relative to <code>myapp.js</code> like:
	 * 
	 *     steal('./jquery.js');
	 *     
	 * Next, we need to load <code>jquery.ui.tabs.js</code>.  You
	 * might expect something like:
	 * 
	 *     steal('./jquery.js','./jquery.ui.tabs.js')
	 * 
	 * to work.  But there are two problems / complications:
	 * 
	 *   - steal loads scripts in parallel and runs out of order
	 *   - <code>jquery.ui.tabs.js</code> depends on jQuery being loaded
	 *   
	 * This means that steal might load <code>jquery.ui.tabs.js</code>
	 * before <code>jquery.js</code>.  But this is easily fixed.
	 * 
	 * [steal.static.then] waits until all previous scripts have loaded and
	 * run before loading scripts after it.  We can load <code>jquery.ui.tabs.js</code>
	 * after <code>jquery.js</code> like:
	 * 
	 *     steal('./jquery.js').then('./jquery.ui.tabs.js')
	 * 
	 * Finally, we need to add tabs to the page after 
	 * the tabs's widget has loaded.  We can add a callback function to
	 * steal that will get called when all previous scripts have finished
	 * loading:
	 * 
	 *     steal('./jquery.js').then('./jquery.ui.tabs.js', function($){
	 *       $('#tabs').tabs();
	 *     })
	 *
	 * ## Other Info
	 * 
	 * ### Exclude Code Blocks From Production
	 *
	 * To exclude code blocks from being included in 
	 * production builds, add the following around
	 * the code blocks.
	 *
	 *     //!steal-remove-start
	 *         code to be removed at build
	 *     //!steal-remove-end
	 * 
	 * ### Lookup Paths
	 * 
	 * By default steal loads resources relative 
	 * to [steal.static.root steal.root].  For example, the following
	 * loads foo.js in <code>steal.root</code>:
	 * 
	 *     steal('foo.js'); // loads //foo.js
	 *     
	 * This is the same as writing:
	 * 
	 *     steal('//foo.js');
	 *     
	 * Steal uses <code>'//'</code> to designate the [steal.static.root steal.root]
	 * folder.
	 * 
	 * To load relative to the current file, add <code>"./"</code> or
	 *  <code>"../"</code>:
	 *  
	 *     steal("./bar.js","../folder/zed.js");
	 * 
	 * Often, scripts can be found in a folder within the same 
	 * name. For example, [jQuery.Controller $.Controller] is 
	 * in <code>//jquery/controller/controller.js</code>. For convience,
	 * if steal is provided a path without an extension like:
	 * 
	 *     steal('FOLDER/PLUGIN');
	 *     
	 * It is the same as writing:
	 * 
	 *     steal('FOLDER/PLUGIN/PLUGIN.js')
	 *     
	 * This means that <code>//jquery/controller/controller.js</code>
	 * can be loaded like:
	 * 
	 *      steal('jquery/controller')
	 * 
	 * ### Types
	 * 
	 * steal can load resources other than JavaScript.
	 * 
	 * 
	 * @constructor
	 * 
	 * Loads resources specified by each argument.  By default, resources
	 * are loaded in parallel and run in any order.
	 * 
	 * 
	 * @param {String|Function|Object} resource... 
	 * 
	 * Each argument specifies a resource.  Resources can 
	 * be given as a:
	 * 
	 * ### Object
	 *  
	 * An object that specifies the loading and build 
	 * behavior of a resource.  
	 *    
	 *      steal({
	 *        src: "myfile.cf",
	 *        type: "coffee",
	 *        packaged: true,
	 *        unique: true,
	 *        ignore: false,
	 *        waits: false
	 *      })
	 *    
	 * The available options are:
	 *    
	 *  - __src__ {*String*} - the path to the resource.  
	 *    
	 *  - __waits__ {*Boolean default=false*} - true the resource should wait 
	 *    for prior steals to load and run. False if the resource should load and run in
	 *    parallel.  This defaults to true for functions.
	 *  
	 *  - __unique__ {*Boolean default=true*} - true if this is a unique resource 
	 *    that 'owns' this url.  This is true for files, false for functions.
	 *             
	 *  - __ignore__ {*Boolean default=false*} - true if this resource should
	 *    not be built into a production file and not loaded in
	 *    production.  This is great for script that should only be available
	 *    in development mode.  This script is loaded during compression, but not 
	 *    added to the bundled script.
	 *  
	 *  - __packaged__ {*Boolean default=true*} - true if the script should be built
	 *    into the production file. false if the script should not be built
	 *    into the production file, but still loaded.  This is useful for 
	 *    loading 'packages'.  This script is loaded during compression, but not 
	 *    added to the bundled script.  The difference with ignore is packaged still 
	 *    steals this file while production mode, from an external script. 
	 * 
	 *  - __type__ {*String default="js"*} - the type of the resource.  This 
	 *    is typically inferred from the src.
	 * 
	 * ### __String__
	 *  
	 * Specifies src of the resource.  For example:
	 *  
	 *       steal('./file.js')
	 *         
	 * Is the same as calling:
	 *      
	 *       steal({src: './file.js'})
	 *  
	 * ### __Function__ 
	 *  
	 * A callback function that runs when all previous steals
	 * have completed.
	 *    
	 *     steal('jquery', 'foo',function(){
	 *       // jquery and foo have finished loading
	 *       // and runing
	 *     })
	 * 
	 * @return {steal} the steal object for chaining

	steal.
	/**
	 * Registers a type.  You define the type of the file, the basic type it converts to, and a 
	 * conversion function where you convert the original file to JS or CSS.  This is modeled after the 
	 * [http://api.jquery.com/extending-ajax/#Converters AJAX converters] in jQuery.
	 * 
	 * Types are designed to make it simple to switch between steal's development and production modes.  In development mode, the types are converted 
	 * in the browser to allow devs to see changes as they work.  When the app is built, these converter functions are run by the build process, 
	 * and the processed text is inserted into the production script, optimized for performance.
	 * 
	 * Here's an example converting files of type .foo to JavaScript.  Foo is a fake language that saves global variables defined like.  A .foo file might 
	 * look like this:
	 * 
	 *     REQUIRED FOO
	 * 
	 * To define this type, you'd call steal.type like this:
	 * 
	 *     steal.type("foo js", function(options, original, success, error){
	 *       var parts = options.text.split(" ")
	 *       options.text = parts[0]+"='"+parts[1]+"'";
	 *       success();
	 *     });
	 * 
	 * The method we provide is called with the text of .foo files in options.text. We parse the file, create 
	 * JavaScript and put it in options.text.  Couldn't be simpler.
	 * 
	 * Here's an example, converting [http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/ coffeescript] to JavaScript:
	 * 
	 *     steal.type("coffee js", function(options, original, success, error){
	 *       options.text = CoffeeScript.compile(options.text);
	 *       success();
	 *     });
	 * 
	 * In this example, any time steal encounters a file with
	 * extension .coffee, it will call the given 
	 * converter method.  CoffeeScript.compile takes the text of the file, converts it from coffeescript to javascript, 
	 * and saves the JavaScript text in options.text.
	 * 
	 * Similarly, languages on top of CSS, like [http://lesscss.org/ LESS], can be converted to CSS:
	 * 
	 *     steal.type("less css", function(options, original, success, error){
	 *       new (less.Parser)({
	 *         optimization: less.optimization,
	 *         paths: []
	 *       }).parse(options.text, function (e, root) {
	 *         options.text = root.toCSS();
	 *         success();
	 *       });
	 *     });
	 * 
	 * This simple type system could be used to convert any file type to be used in your JavaScript app.  For example, 
	 * [http://fdik.org/yml/ yml] could be used for configuration.  jQueryMX uses steal.type to support JS templates, such as EJS, TMPL, and others.
	 * 
	 * @param {String} type A string that defines the new type being defined and the type being converted to, 
	 * separated by a space, like "coffee js".  
	 * 
	 * There can be more than two steps used in conversion, such as "ejs view 
	 * js".  This will define a method that converts .ejs files to .view files.  There should be another converter for "view js" 
	 * that makes this final conversion to JS.
	 * 
	 * @param {Function} cb( options, original, success, error ) a callback function that converts the new file type 
	 * to a basic type.  This method needs to do two things: 1) save the text of the converted file in options.text 
	 * and 2) call success() when the conversion is done (it can work asynchronously).
	 * 
	 * - __options__ - the steal options for this file, including path information
	 * - __original__ - the original argument passed to steal, which might be a path or a function
	 * - __success__ - a method to call when the file is converted and processed successfully
	 * - __error__ - a method called if the conversion fails or the file doesn't exist
