Re-publishing my old change (#111...not quite sure why I closed it back then) adding support for splitting the input to fields where certain field can be used for searching and another field for the output of the command.

    -d, --delimiter=DELIM      Use DELIM to split the line to fields (default ':')
    -f, --field=NUM                Use field NUM for searching (default is the whole line)
    -F, --output-field=NUM   Use field NUM for output (default is the whole line)

For instance, cat /etc/passwd | fzy -d: -f1 -F6 will fuzzy-search the usernames and then print the home directory of the chosen user.
