The short answer is yes, buildr can do that.  In fact, even a bash script
could do that easily... which kinda begs the question as to why use buildr
for this and not some other simpler mean, including plain-old Ruby
scripting.   I have a feeling you haven't expressed all your requirements,
so only you can answer this.
