> cargo install gxhash
    Updating crates.io index
error: there is nothing to install in `gxhash v3.4.1`, because it has no binaries
`cargo install` is only for installing programs, and can't be used with libraries.
To use a library crate, add it as a dependency to a Cargo project with `cargo add`.

I just want access to the CLI tool

Hello @balupton, gxhash is a library, not a CLI tool, there are no executable binaries. Maybe I can help if you can give more context on what you're trying to achieve?

Wanted a CLI tool so I can hash data quickly in bash programs, data will either be arguments or stdin. Most checksum tools have a consistent cli interface.
