shells 0.2.0

Shells for Rust

Wrapper around std::process::Command which make the use of Rust for shell scripting more appealing.

Documentation

Simple example

#[macro_use]
extern crate shells;

fn main() {
    let (code, stdout, stderr) = sh!("echo '{} + {}' | bc", 1, 3);

    assert_eq!(code, 0);
    assert_eq!(&stdout[..], "4\n");
    assert_eq!(&stderr[..], "");
}

A mnemotechnic to remember the ordering of the elements in the resulting tuple is the positions of stdout and stderr, they correspond to the standard streams numbers: 1 and 2 respectively.
