custom formatters

In order to format output/reporting to my particular needs
As an RSpec user
I want to create my own custom output formatters

Scenarios

@wip specdoc format

Given

a file named "custom_formatter.rb" with:

require "rspec/runner/formatter/base_formatter"

class CustomFormatter < RSpec::Runner::Formatter::BaseFormatter
  def initialize(options, output)
    @output = output
  end
  def example_started(proxy)
    @output << "example: " << proxy.description
  end
end

And

a file named "simple_example_spec.rb" with:

describe "my group" do
  specify "my example" do
  end
end

When

I run "rspec ./simple_example_spec.rb --require custom_formatter.rb --format CustomFormatter"

Then

the output should contain "example: my example"

And

the exit status should be 0
