📄 Description

Hey

Wanted to add a few small additions to the project I guess
most of the users might benefit:

automatically stdout everything - this comes in handy.
-T --title options, to give custom title name to page in case there are no files.
added an "epipebomb" safety measure (method inside index.js) which eliminates "EPIPE" exception which mostly happens
when multiple pipes are used and they are not closed. (can read about it)

I'm mostly using frontail to pipe through along with sending to browser
so it allows chaining multiple frontails, in multiple browser windows
for example (is in mobile testing) :

node dist/connect-android.js | frontail - -p 9001 -T All |  node dist/scenario.js connect | frontail - -p 9002 -T Test

The above allows opening two browsers while each having a different output from frontail
and different titles.

looking forward to your remarks and ideas :)
