# rusty-man

A command-line viewer for documentation generated by `rustdoc`.

## Example Usage

```
$ cd rusty-man && cargo doc
$ rusty-man kuchiki::NodeRef
# Struct kuchiki::NodeRef

pub struct NodeRef(pub Rc<Node>);

A strong reference to a node.

$ rusty-man --source ~/.rustup/toolchains/stable-*/share/doc/html io::Error
# Struct std::io::Error

pub struct Error { /* fields omitted */ }

The error type for I/O operations of the `Read`, `Write`, `Seek`, and associated traits.

Errors mostly originate from the underlying OS, but custom instances of `Error` can be created with
crafted error messages and a particular value of `ErrorKind`.

$ rusty-man --source ~/.rustup/toolchains/stable-*/share/doc/rust/html u8
Found mulitple matches for u8 – select one of:

[ 0 ] core::u8: The 8-bit unsigned integer type.
[ 1 ] std::u8: The 8-bit unsigned integer type.

> 1

# Primitive Type u8
