Snipt is a powerful command-line tool that allows you to quickly save and retrieve text snippets from your command line. It is a utility originally written for macOS, but it can be used on other systems that support Python.
In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Snipt on OpenSUSE Latest. The process is quite simple and straightforward.
Before we start installing Snipt, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
First, we need to install Git, which is a version control system that is used to download and manage the source code of Snipt. To install Git on your system, run the following command:
sudo zypper install git
Once Git is installed, we can clone the Snipt repository from GitHub using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/nicksergeant/snipt.git
This will download the Snipt source code to your local system.
Navigate to the snipt directory and run the install.sh script to install Snipt on your system:
cd snipt/
./install.sh
During the installation, you may be prompted to enter your sudo password. Enter your password and wait for the installation to complete.
To test if Snipt has been successfully installed, run the following command:
snipt -v
This should output the current version of Snipt, indicating that it has been successfully installed.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Snipt on your OpenSUSE Latest system. You can now use Snipt to store and retrieve frequently used text snippets from your command line. For more information, you can consult the official Snipt documentation.
