Previously, we only used the underline effect to highlight links in the rich viewer, but we did not provide any information about their target. With this patch, we print a list of link at the end of a block, similar to the plain text viewer. |

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 the Rust installation
directory, you have to manually set the source path using the -s/--source
option:
$ rusty-man --source my/other/crate/target/doc io::Error
If there are multiple matches for the keyword, rusty-man will show you a list of all matching items:
$ rusty-man --source my/other/crate/target/doc 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.

rusty-man should run on all platforms, but the rich viewer is only available
for ANSI terminals. If you have trouble running rusty-man on your platform or
if you want to help porting rusty-man to other platforms, please let me know.
Integrations

You can set rusty-man as the keyword program with set keywordprg=rusty-man

you want to apply this setting for all Rust files, add it to the
