Adding a safe feature to hyperrogue

Hyperrogue is an awesome educational game for teaching hyperbolic geometry, but sadly due to it being roguelike it (intentionally!) has only a crippled save feature. This crate fixes this. After installing it you can call save after having clicked "Save" in hyperrogue and restore after quitting after an game over.

Installing

As all rust programs on crates.io this program to is installed with

cargo install hypersave

This creates the two binaries save and restore, which are pretty general name. If you want to change these, you can use your file manager or use commands like this:

mv ~/.cargo/bin/save ~/.cargo/bin/insert-your-name-for-the-save-binary-here
mv ~/.cargo/bin/restore ~/.cargo/bin/insert-your-name-for-the-restore-binary-here

Profiles

You can start a new play through with the concept of profiles. With save name-of-your-old-play-through you save your current play through to the given name which you can restore later again with restore name-of-your-old-play-through.
