Usage

To build this repo from source, you need the Rust toolchain, and follow these steps:

  1. Clone the repository:
    git clone https://github.com/walker84837/quickcount.git
    
  2. It may take a while at first, depending on where you're compiling, run:
    cargo build --release
    
  3. If you prefer, you can move the executable file to some other place:
    mv target/release/quickcount path/to/your/destination
    
    You can move this to /usr/local/bin or any other path which is in your $PATH.
  4. If prefer to keep the binary in the same directory, you can run the code with Cargo (you can do this without doing step 2 as it builds automatically):
    cargo run --release
