grep command for New Relic Logs

This package provides a command nrgrep which is grep-like command for New Relic Logs.

New Relic can store plenty of logs and we can query it really fast on the very nice UI on the web site, but some of developers still prefer to use command line interface to query logs than modern UIs. This command helps such kind of people.
