Simple terminal based text file reader written in Rust. Works similarly to GNU cat but is more focused on viewing text files with interactive scrolling functionality for longer files. Catter silently omits any non-text based file as to not clutter the output.
The project serves a purpose of giving me an opportunity to learn Rust language and other associated frameworks.
Requirements:
- Rust/Cargo
- You will need this to compile the program
- Just
- Repository contains a justfile that can be used to automate build and installation process.
You can build and install catter with this command. It will install to $HOME/.bin/ or $HOME/bin/ if the first isn’t present in your home directory.
just installTo remove catter use remove recipe.
just removeOtherwise Just is optional.
