README

triggerChange

given an element, it sets it's value and triggers a "change event" (this is an utter betrayal of the unix philosophy AKA "do one thing", i should really write another module that changes the value and let this one just trigger the event, but c'est la vie).

    var triggerChange = require('triggerChange')
    var inny = document.querySelector('input')
    triggerChange(inny, 'wowowowowowowow')

you know, for testing event handlers and stuff...
