Also, rename old 'lines' view to 'details' which makes more sense

Installation

exa is written in Rust. You'll have to use the nightly -- I try to keep it up to date with the latest version when possible. You will also need Cargo, the Rust package manager. Once you have them both set up, a simple cargo build will pull in all the dependencies and compile exa.
