#### Tunable-buffer file copy and move manager with checkpointed pause/resume

Buffered Copy Handler is an independent Linux file copy and move manager
with tunable I/O buffers, byte-offset pause/resume checkpoints, and wildcard
or attribute filtering, inspired by classic Copy Handler workflows.

Key Features:

* Tunable I/O Buffer Engine: choose chunk sizes of 64 KB, 256 KB, 1 MB,
  4 MB, or 16 MB with real-time throughput telemetry (MB/s), chunk progress,
  and sparkline visualization.
* Checkpointed Pause and Resume: pause active transfers cleanly at exact
  byte offsets and persist resumable JSON checkpoints so interrupted multi-megabyte
  or gigabyte file transfers continue from the saved byte offset across pauses
  or restarts.
* Filter Engine and Safe Verification: filter queues with include/exclude
  wildcard masks, minimum/maximum file size, and modified date cutoffs;
  preserve file timestamps/permissions and verify post-copy SHA-256 digests
  before removing sources in Move mode.
* Task Inspector and Profiles: inspect per-file statuses, speeds, and ETA;
  save and load JSON buffer/filter profiles and export completed task
  histories to CSV.
* Bilingual English and Vietnamese interface with instant runtime switching.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install Buffered Copy Handler

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```
