## Usage
To use simply invoke `fast` with no arguments.
```
$ ./fast
-> 340.37 Mbps
```
By default fast will print status messages as it progresses and will display a pleasing spinning bar. It will also find the unit of measure most appropriate for your use case.
If you don't want the extra output and you only want the end result, you can use the `--silent` option. Additionally you can force the output into the desired units with the `-k`, `-m`, or `-g` flags.
| Flag | Description |
| ------- | ----------- |
| --silent | Hides status information and only displays the end result |
| -k | Forces output into Kbps |
| -m | Forces output into Mbps |
| -g | Forces output into Gbps |
