README
A curated list of command-line utilities written in Rust
Note that I have not tried all of these personally and cannot and do not vouch for all of the tools listed here. In most cases, the descriptions below are copied directly from their code repos at the time I found them. Some projects may have been abandoned. Investigate before installing/using.
