# Version

The blazing fast way to check what version of grep you're using, written in Rust.

This is a Rust rewrite of the [`version`](https://github.com/bit101/version) tool written by [Keith Peters](http://www.bit-101.com/).

I wanted to write a complete project in Rust that I would actually find useful, and I thought it would be funny to rewrite such a simple tool in Rust.

The code is super messy for now, I just got the main functionality working and am going back to refactor it into something maintainable.

## Usage

To get the version of a tool, use:

```shell

version 

```

For example:

```text

$ version python3

Command: python3 -V

Python 3.9.5

```

To get a list of all the tools that `version` knows about, run:

```shell

version --list

```

## Installation

If you don't have the Rust toolchain, you can install it using [rustup](https://rustup.rs), then run:

```shell

cargo install --git "https://github.com/Hasnep/version.git"

```

## Licencing

This project is released under the MIT Licence found in the [licence file](LICENCE).

It also uses code from Keith Peters' project [`version`](https://github.com/bit101/version), licenced under the MIT Licence, which can be found the [project's repository](https://github.com/bit101/version/blob/master/LICENSE) or in the file [`LICENCE-bit101`](LICENCE-bit101).
