I'm getting an error during compiling. I did a "brew install rust", cloned the project then did "cargo build --bins --release" and got the error

   Compiling rift-wm v0.1.0 (/Users/bartvk/Developer/github.com/rift)

error[E0554]: `#![feature]` may not be used on the stable release channel

Now I get I may have to switch to some beta rust version, so I did a "brew install rustup" and tried again "cargo build --bins --release" but same error.

It'd greatly help if there was a step-by-step installation guide. I'm not into rust, so I'm getting a bit lost here.

Not sure why it doesn't install automatically, but you should be able to install nightly with `rustup toolchain install nightly`.

    I think the problem is, that I installed rustup with homebrew. When I installed rustup in the official way, with the shellscript, I was able to compile according to instructions. Might be my installation though.
