README

          
A small unix and windows lib to search for executables in path folders.

Example:

```rs

use searchpath::search_path;

use std::ffi::OsString;

fn main() {

    let path = std::env::var_os("PATH");

    let files = search_path("ba", path.as_ref().map(OsString::as_os_str), None);

    for file in files {

        println!("{}", file);

    }

}

```

Will print something like

```

bat

bashbug

bash

base32

basenc

basename

base64

```

Windows example:

```rs

use searchpath::search_path;

use std::ffi::OsString;

fn main() {

    let path = std::env::var_os("path");

    let path_ext = std::env::var_os("pathext");

    let files = search_path("explo", path.as_ref().map(OsString::as_os_str), path_ext.as_ref().map(OsString::as_os_str));

    for file in files {

        println!("{}", file);

    }

}

```
