Because backtick has a different meaning in the shell, and the user
may copy-and-paste such text.
Some light re-wording included as well, and a reference to "brew cask edit"
changed to "brew cask cat" for simplicity.
Mysterious `hdiutil` errors are a longtime problem with the
test suite, and the largest cause of false Travis failure
reports.
What appears to happen is that `hdiutil` returns a valid
plist output, but also exits with an error code.
Recently, user errors have been reported which seem to be
related to the same problem (#4857).
After #4892 and #4887, we have have more assurances that mount errors
will be caught elsewhere, if the XML is incorrect/missing, or if the
mounts are not returned.
So, for this special case, it should be safe to simply
ignore the error code from `hdiutil`.
This may not be strictly necessary. But it should help track
down the `hdiutil` errors, which are persistent, but occasional,
and hard to reproduce. (We pass a flag to `hdiutil` to make
respond in XML.)
The logic for better errors was already there; this just makes
sure that another exceptional case is handled, and falls through
to the existing error-check.

HOLD until #4865 is merged.
After #4865, `caskroom_only` can be subclassed from Cask::Artifact::Base
like any other artifact. It no longer has the special property of
making `uninstall` stanzas work.
This stanza has never been documented. It is possible that it will
no longer be needed, after #4865 and subsequent cleanup on Casks that
use this form.
References: #4688
This makes the following stanzas available in the DSL as
synonyms to existing stanza, with no change to existing
functionality:
- pkg for `install`
- app for `link`
- suite for `link`
- preflight for `before_install`
- postflight for `before_uninstall`
- uninstall_preflight for `before_uninstall`
- uninstall_postflight for `after_uninstall`

This works, but is marked WIP because we are not in a hurry,
and because I intend to add tests.
Including the case where a Cask is already installed.
Always continue installing when multiple Casks are specified,
only raising an exception at the end of the command (if some
portion of the attempted install actions failed). Never
exit with an error code if "already installed" was the only
problem seen during the run.
Also tweak error messages.
Fixes#1347, #2677, #4785
Required disabling two tests regarding suggestions on Cask
spelling errors.
before invoking `each` method. This is necessitated by Homebrew's
switch to Ruby 2.0.
Also standardize how all `uninstall` directives are coerced to Array,
in a way that is compatible between Ruby 1.8 and 2.0.
Fixes#4784.
Fixes#4677. This change is necessitated by Homebrew's recent
switch to Ruby 2.x. These changes may be incomplete and/or
may not work well with Ruby 1.8. Travis should test Ruby 1.8
compatibility.
