aursc: Very simple AUR search utility

aurdl is a simple search utility for the Arch User Repository. That's all it does.

I was making a aurutils "suite" of programs a while back when I was still an active Arch Linux user, and decided to tidy up the stuff which I did get done. One thing that really bothers me about a lot of AUR utilities is that they try to do everything in one program (this bothers me about pacman, too) -- it makes stuff way too complicated. Programs should be designed to perform one function, and one function alone. I may yet create the other parts of the "aurutils" suite if people want it, but I have little personal interest as I don't really use Arch any more.
