A shorter version of output

[pravic]

To continue from #15.

If you'd rather have quieter output, I'd be OK with just printing just the id or name or both with the dependents instead of the full metadata.

I'd rather go with an additional option (like, -q or --brief) that eliminates id, homepage, downloads (?),

Compare:

$ cargo show tokio
--
id: tokio
name: tokio
description: An event-driven, non-blocking I/O platform for writing asynchronous I/O
backed applications.

documentation: https://docs.rs/tokio/0.1
homepage: https://tokio.rs
repository: https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio
max_version: 0.1.7
downloads: 315648
license: None

vs

$ cargo show tokio --brief
--
name: tokio
description: An event-driven, non-blocking I/O platform for writing asynchronous I/O
backed applications.

Also I'd replace downloads' number with a human-readable format (at least, 315,648, or 315K).

Maybe the datetime strings for created and updated too.

See also #6 though I'd be in favor of just landing these changes and telling people who want custom output formats to use --json piped to jq or a similar tool.
