Module syntect::dumps

Methods for dumping serializable structs to a compressed binary format, used to allow fast startup times

Currently syntect serializes SyntaxSet structs with dump_to_file into .packdump files and likewise ThemeSet structs to .themedump files.

You can use these methods to manage your own caching of compiled syntaxes and themes. And even your own serde::Serialize structures if you want to be consistent with your format.
