INFO:  
A collection of shortcuts and helpers for leveraging a request’s env  
in Rails, such as including a browser-specific stylesheet or putting a  
short version of the user agent in the CSS classes of the body tag.

This removes the need for most hacks or conditional comments since you  
can now get browser-specific with your CSS rules. You can either go  
full-bore with CSS files (public/stylesheets/browsers/ie6.css for  
example) or just do and  
make rules like body.ie6 div { … }

INSTALL:  
sudo gem install quartermaster  
then simply require ‘quartermaster’ in your environment config
