Building from source

1. Install rust preferably using rustup, as well as git
2. Download a copy of the code: git clone https://github.com/micnekr/filephile.git
3. Go to the code folder: cd filephile
4. Build the project: cargo build --release
5. Copy ./target/release/fphile to somewhere that is in your PATH. On a Unix-like OS, a good candidate is /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin. Note that /usr/local/bin may not be included in PATH by default and you might need to add it. On Windows, you can place it under the C:\Program Files folder.

Making the config files

If you installed manually (i.e. not from a package manager), you will need to use a config file. I recommend you use example_config.toml as the base or just copy it. example_config.toml uses vim key bindings.
