Porting the guff plot device to Rust
For this stream, I wanted to implement something in Rust where we didn't also need to learn a new technical topic, and instead could focus just on the "writing Rust" part. After digging around for a bit, I came across https://github.com/silentbicycle/guff in my old bookmarks — it's a command-line tool that takes a stream of data on STDIN, and plots it to your terminal using good-ol' ASCII (no ncurses interface or TUI or anything, just prints). guff was last updated 10 years ago, and is written in plain C, so felt like a good candidate for a refresh that we could also add functionality to. You can find `dings`, the resulting port, at https://github.com/jonhoo/dings/, and the commit at the end of the stream at https://github.com/jonhoo/dings/commi....
