vesln/word — Issue #1: Don't make me depend on Coffeescript

I like this library. It has some nice features that I would probably use day-to-day, but as it stands now, I will never use it because I hate unnecessary dependencies. Especially those that will be repeated ad nauseum in my dependency-tree since there is no common ancestor (because I don't use coffeescript).

Consider if all the modules I depended on did this:

```
my-pure-js-app
`-- word
| `-- coffescript
`-- coffee-module1
| `-- coffescript
`-- coffee-module2
| `-- coffescript
`-- coffee-module3
`-- coffescript
```

If you're going to use coffeescript fine. Just please reference the compiled *.js source in the `main` property of your package.json. You can even do this automatically on a publish by adding this to your package.json

``` js
{
"scripts": {
"pre-publish": "cake do-something-like-build-coffee-into-js"
}
```
