Snippet Manager

A very simple, very basic, KDE desktop application for storing and managing text snippets, code snippets, and short phrases with full Unicode support.

I couldn't find anything that suited my needs: just a dead simple, very basic string snippets tools. So I built one.. actually Claude Sonnet did most of the coding, I just "supervised"

• Search: Real-time search through titles and content
• Unicode Support: Store and display any Unicode characters
• Copy to Clipboard: Easy copying of snippets to other applications
• SQLite Backend: Self-contained database storage
• Native KDE Integration: Built with Qt and KDE Frameworks
