Makes boolean operations work as in Python or JavaScript

including net.caoticode.boolex._ allows to:

• use any value where booleans are expected (like in an if expression)
• use && and || with any value: they work like the usual && and || boolean operators, but instead of returning a boolean, they return the value associated with the "truth" or "falsity" of the expression

for example:

import net.caoticode.boolex._

val something = "Hi!"
val nothing = ""

(nothing || something) == "Hi!" // :D

the values considered false are:

• empty Strings
• a Number equal to 0
• an empty Traversable
• the Boolean false
• null and None

add the following line to sbt build file

libraryDependencies += "net.caoticode.boolex" %% "boolex" % "1.0.0"

or clone and package it manually

git clone https://github.com/mdread/boolex.git
cd boolex
sbt package

The library is cross compiled for scala 2.10/2.11
