CuteAttribute

An elegant way to deal with attributed string in swift. It's convenient to create attributed string by .cute, whatever from String, NSString, NSAttributedString or NSMutableAttributedString. It's so amazing that almost all methods support chaining. I create this project just because I met Typeset serveral days ago. But I found it's so hard to use by swift. So I made this.
