I enjoy writing Command Line interfaces so much ❤️

I'm trying to give flexibility regarding output, while keeping sane defaults, and allowing advanced usage, such as piping.

In this demo, I demonstrate the flexibility I've implemented: you can output the API results in various formats (plain, markdown, RST, HTML, etc.), or retrieve the plain JSON returned by the API.

You can also select the fields you want to display.

It's now possible to download one or more tracks via the CLI, in a given format, and to use basic templating for the filename.

Quick demonstration in the video below.

You can use this mechanism to quickly download all the tracks matching a given search or filter from your instance to your computer (e.g for offline use).

Or to stream a bunch of tracks directly to VLC.

The templating part for filename was rather funny to work on!
