#
# You will also need "dmenu", "zenity", "xsel" and "xdotool". Get them from your linux
# distro in the usual way.
#
# To use:
# 1. Create the directory ~/.snippy
#
# 2. Create a file in that directory for each snippet that you want.
# The filename will be used as a menu item, so you might want to
# omit the file extension when you name the file.
#
# TIP: If you have a lot of snippets, you can organise them into
# subdirectories under ~/.snippy.
#
# TIP: The contents of the file will be pasted asis, so if you
# don't want a newline at the end when the text is pasted, don't
# put one in the file.
#
# 3. Bind a convenient key combination to this script.
#
# TIP: If you're using XMonad, add something like this to xmonad.hs
# ((mod4Mask, xK_s), spawn "/path/to/snippy")
#
# 4. Set variables in ~/.snippy.conf. for example
# MENU_ENGINE="dmenu"
# DMENU_ARGS=' -p snippy -fn arial -sf green'
# ZENITY_ARGS='--list --hide-header --column=Snippet --text=snippy'
# GUIPASTE="xdotool key ctrl+v"
# CLIPASTE="xdotool key ctrl+shift+v"
