Prettier messages

You might notice that the error messages printed by default by main are quite ugly. This is due to the default Debug implementation for the error types.

Fortunately we can do better by using the anyhow crate. This crate adds a anyhow::Error type which is compatible with all errors implementing the std::error::Error trait.

Exercise 6.a: after adding the anyhow crate to your Cargo.toml (you should know how to do it by then), modify your main() function so that it returns a Result<(), anyhow::Error>.

Note that in anyhow you will find the following definition

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
type Result<T> = std::result::Result<T, anyhow::Error>;
}

(std::result::Result being the "default" Result type that we use)

It means that you can use anyhow::Result<T> everywhere you would be using Result<T, anyhow::Error>, as a shortcut.

Exercise 6.b: make your main() function return a anyhow::Result<()>.

Look at the produced errors. Aren't they beautiful, compared to what we had before?
