This is a simple command-line tool written in Rust that counts the number of lines in a given file.
To use the tool, navigate to the directory where the executable is located and run the following command:
./line_counter <file_path>
Replace <file_path>
with the path to the file you want to count lines for.
For example:
./line_counter ./example.txt
This will print the number of lines in the example.txt
file.
If you want to build the tool from source, you'll need to have Rust installed on your system. You can download and install Rust from the official website: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
Once you have Rust installed, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository or download the source code.
- Navigate to the project directory.
- Build the project using Cargo:
cargo build --release
This will create an optimized binary in the target/release
directory.
- You can then run the tool with: ./target/release/line_counter <file_path>
