Vento is a utility which allows you to manage your files as if you're playing an old text adventure. It's made in Rust and originally inspired by [Chesapeake's Inventory](https://github.com/mothdotmonster/inventory).
## Install
Clone the repository using Git.
```
$ git clone https://codeberg.org/nixgoat/vento.git && cd vento
```
The recommended method to install Vento is to use [cargo-make](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-make/0.3.54#usage-conditions-structure). This will install the binary and the manpages for Vento.
```
$ cargo make install
```
Otherwise you can build and install it with [Cargo](https://rustup.rs/). This will however not install the manpages.
```
$ cargo install --path .
```
## Quickstart
After installing, run `vento init`. This will create a `.vento` folder in your home directory which will store your inventories. After which, you can run `vento list` to display the files in your inventories, `vento take` to move a file into your active inventory and `vento drop` to drop a file out of it. If you're stuck, run `vento help`.
