choo-cli

Tiny CLI for the next 3 Belgian trains between two stations, using the iRail API. No dependencies, pure Go stdlib.

$ choo nord diest
13:52  plat 6    → Diest  arr 14:34  direct
14:08 +2 plat 3  → Diest  arr 15:09 +3  1 transfer(s)
14:52  plat 6    → Diest  arr 15:34  direct

• Green departure time, red +N delay in minutes (after departure and/or arrival time), red CANCELED, yellow transfer count.
• Colors auto-disable when output is piped.
• Station names are fuzzy-matched by iRail (leuven, brussel noord, ...); nord/noord are local aliases for Brussel-Noord.
