With this patch, we replace the termion dependency with crossterm.  This
should make it possible to compile and run rusty-man on other platforms
than Unix.

$ rusty-man rusty-man | head -4
rusty-man                                 Module rusty-man                                 rusty-man

DESCRIPTION
      rusty-man is a command-line viewer for documentation generated by `rustdoc`.

Example Usage

Before running rusty-man, make sure that you generated the documentation with cargo doc:

$ cd rusty-man && cargo doc

Then you can open the documentation for an item:

$ rusty-man kuchiki::NodeRef

You don’t have to specificy the full item name:

$ rusty-man NodeRef

If the documentation is not placed in ./target/doc or /usr/share/doc/rust{,-doc}/html, you have to manually set the source path using the -s/--source option:

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

If there are multiple matches for the keyword, rusty-man will show you a list of all matching items:

$ 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

For more usage information, run rusty-man --help.
