Configuring TAEB at launch to use a different AI(and other settings)

I've been playing around with Taeb and Nethack for a few days now. I'm really glad I ignored this game during college. I have a few friends who didn't and didn't finish.

I gave myself a crash course review of Perl. I mainly did this so I could understand the code for Demo.pm, which is the reference agent. I wanted to try to change agents, but I mistakenly thought this could be done with taeb's --config option.

In order to change the AI of Taeb, one must place a yml file into $HOME/.taeb. The yml file must be renamed to config.yml
