# Manx

manx is a wscat clone. It's a simple interface to websocket servers.

One of its features is that it saves the prompt, so that you can type commands even
if you are receiving a flood of data.

For those learning Rust and async, manx shows how async websockets can interface with sync stdin and stdout loops.

Windows should be supported (although currently untested, please sent in bug reports!)

Thanks especially to [smol](https://github.com/stjepang/smol), [async-tungstenite](https://github.com/sdroege/async-tungstenite), [tungstenite](https://github.com/snapview/tungstenite-rs), and [linefeed](https://github.com/murarth/linefeed), which provided the building blocks for this app.

# Install

Make sure you have [Rust](https://rustup.rs), then
