Linux Modules
Tool To Manage Linux Kernel Modules
This is a tool to manage your Linux Kernel Modules.
It is an alternative to modprobe, and supports listing, adding, and removing modules,
as well as displaying information on them.
It does not yet support modprobe style dependencies or aliases, and is not capable of displaying module signature data, except whether one exists or not.
Install
cargo install linux_modules
Usage
CLI
$ nms info loop

Note that the table size will adapt to your terminal.
This example uses size 60.
Pager
nms info and nms list automatically pipe output to a pager,
defaulting to less, but this may be customized through environment variables.
See the pager crate for details on
how to customize what pager is used.
