A Rust crate for parsing `utmp` files like `/var/run/utmp` and `/var/log/wtmp`.

## Usage

Simplest way is to use `parse_from_*` functions,

which returns a `Vec` on success:

```rust

let entries = utmp_rs::parse_from_path("/var/run/utmp")?;

// ...

```

If you don't need to collect them all,

`UtmpParser` can be used as an iterator:

```rust

use utmp_rs::UtmpParser;

for entry in UtmpParser::from_path("/var/run/utmp")? {

    let entry = entry?;

    // ...

}

```

All the `parse_from_*` functions as well as `UtmpParser` parse `utmp` file

based on the native format for the target platform.

If cross-platform parsing is needed,

`Utmp32Parser` or `Utmp64Parser` can be used instead of `UtmpParser`.
