CLI tools written in Rust language

by Michael Madden

Let's explore some command line tools written in Rust and walk through some typical workflows.

Many of these tools can augment common Linux/macOS command line tools.

The content will be taken from this repository, https://github.com/mikemadden42/rusty-tools <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://github.com/mikemadden42/rusty-tools&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw10c8Ldd5fZURZ_7CfcxLNI>

Many of these tools have similar, attractive themes:

Speed

Reasonable defaults

Active development

	So, just a quick peek at the 1st 4 gives...

bandwhich =

rouge <https://github.com/jneen/rouge>
lesspipe <https://github.com/wofr06/lesspipe>
vimpager <https://github.com/rkitover/vimpager>


Broot =
A better way (than ls) to navigate directories



DUST = an easy way to see where my disk is being used.  Comparable to:
NCDU <https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu>
dutree <https://github.com/nachoparker/dutree>
du -d 1 -h | sort -h

 gdu.


(As time & interests demand, we may also touch on the “Language of the Month Club” aspects of “Why writing these in Rust.”)
