atty is unmaintained

The maintainer of atty has published an official notice that the crate is no longer
under development, and that users should instead rely on the functionality in the standard library's IsTerminal trait.

Alternative(s)

• std::io::IsTerminal - Stable since Rust 1.70.0 and the recommended replacement per the atty maintainer.
• is-terminal - Standalone crate supporting Rust older than 1.70.0

Potential unaligned read

On windows, atty dereferences a potentially unaligned pointer.

In practice however, the pointer won't be unaligned unless a custom global allocator is used.

In particular, the System allocator on windows uses HeapAlloc, which guarantees a large enough alignment.

atty is Unmaintained

A Pull Request with a fix has been provided over a year ago but the maintainer seems to be unreachable.

Last release of atty was almost 3 years ago.
