tokei/README.md
Chris Adams de22ee831b Document that --exclude accepts a list of values
I'm not entirely happy with the wording but wanted to avoid using terms like “match” to avoid giving the impression that things like regular expressions or shell globs were supported.

## Canonical Source
The canonical source of this repo is hosted on [GitHub](https://github.com/Aaronepower/tokei). If you have a GitHub account, please make your issues, and pull requests there.
## Installation
### Automatic
If you have [`cargo 0.6.0>=`](https://www.rust-lang.org/downloads.html) installed just run the `cargo install` command.
```shell
$ cargo install tokei
```
### Manual
#### Fedora 64 bit
Install rust and cargo from either the [official page](https://www.rust-lang.org) or use a copr repo such as [Rust](https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/phnxrbrn/rust/)
```shell
$ dnf copr enable phnxrbrn/tokei
$ dnf install tokei
```
#### Other
```shell
$ git clone https://github.com/Aaronepower/tokei.git
$ cd tokei
$ cargo build --release
```
##### Linux
```
# sudo mv target/release/tokei /usr/local/bin
```
##### OSX
```
# sudo mv target/release/tokei /usr/local/bin/tokei
```
##### Windows
- Create a folder for tokei
- search for `env`
- open "edit your enviroment variables"
- edit `PATH`
- append folder path to the end of the string ie: `<path_stuff_here>;C:/tokei/;`
## How to use Tokei
#### Basic usage
This is the basic way to use tokei. Which will report on the code in `./foo` and all subfolders.
```shell
$ tokei ./foo
```
#### Multiple folders
To have tokei report on multiple folders in the same call simply add a comma followed by another path.
```shell
$ tokei ./foo, ./bar, ./baz
```
#### Excluding folders
The `--exclude` option accepts a comma-separated list of strings. Any file or directory containing a term will be ignored:
```shell
$ tokei ./foo --exclude node_modules,.cache,tmp target
```
#### Sorting output
By default tokei sorts alphabetically by language name, however using `--sort` tokei can also sort by any of the columns.
`blanks, code, comments, lines`
```shell
$ tokei ./foo --sort code
```
#### Outputing file statistics
By default tokei only outputs the total of the languages, and using `--files` flag tokei can also output individual file statistics.
```shell
$ tokei ./foo --files
```
#### Outputting into different formats
Tokei normally outputs into a nice human readable format designed for the terminal.
There is also using the `--output` option various other formats that are more useful for bringing the data into another program.
**Current supported formats**
- JSON `--output json`
- YAML `--output yaml`
- TOML `--output toml`
- CBOR `--output cbor`
```shell
$ tokei ./foo --output json
```
#### Reading in stored formats
Tokei can also take in the outputted formats added the previous results to it's current run.
Tokei can take either a path to a file, the format passed in as a value to the option, or from stdin.
```shell
$ tokei ./foo --input ./stats.json
```

## Common issues
### Tokei says I have a lot of D code, but I know there is no D code!
This is likely due to `gcc` generating `.d` files. Until the D people decide on a different file extension, you can always exclude `.d` files using the `-e --exclude` flag like so
```
$ tokei . -e .d
```
