FEATURES
• Tab 0 — Grep Search & Syntax Context Viewer: Recursively search directories
(supporting real home, removable media, and host read-only system paths
such as /etc and /usr) using file type masks (e.g. *.py;*.cpp;*.js;*.txt),
Plain text, RegEx, Whole Word, Case Sensitive, and Negation mode (list files
WITHOUT match). Inspect matching files alongside a rich line-numbered
context viewer showing configurable 0 to 10 Before/After context lines,
dimmed context hunks, and bright highlighted matching spans.
• Tab 1 — Extension Hit Breakdown & File Reader: Interactive extension
breakdown chart and table grouping matched files and total hit counts by
file extension, paired with a line-jump file reader to jump directly to any
matched line in full source context.
• Tab 2 — Exclude Rules, Presets & Export: Configure directory and extension
exclusion filters, optional PDF/Office document text search, manage saved
JSON grep presets, switch between English and Vietnamese UI, and export
full search results with context lines to formatted TXT or CSV reports.

## Enable snaps on Manjaro Linux and install Context Line File Grep

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

Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu. From the application, search for *snapd*, select the result, and click Apply.

Alternatively, *snapd* can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo pacman -S snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

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

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
