Updated code as best as possible

Getting this code working is a bit of a work in progress. Much of
the origional code was out of date and there are some other commits
that I pulled into this because the changes were usefull. I believe
that this is almost working correctly. The only thing that is still
failing is when the pull request is made. This is due to changes in
the GitHub api.
added some white space for testing
resored gitignore check
