+### Snap Install
+
+Install using `snap`
+
+```
+sudo snap install feroxbuster
+```
+
+The only gotcha here is that the snap package can only read wordlists from a few specific locations. There are a few 
+possible solutions, of which two are shown below.
+
+If the wordlist is on the same partition as your home directory, it can be hard-linked into `~/snap/feroxbuster/common`
+
+```
+ln /path/to/the/wordlist ~/snap/feroxbuster/common
+./feroxbuster -u http://localhost -w ~/snap/feroxbuster/common/wordlist
+``` 
+
+If the wordlist is on a separate partition, hard-linking won't work.  You'll need to copy it into the snap directory.
+
+```
+cp /path/to/the/wordlist ~/snap/feroxbuster/common
+./feroxbuster -u http://localhost -w ~/snap/feroxbuster/common/wordlist

+
+### Threads and Connection Limits At A High-Level
+
+This section explains how the `-t` and `-L` options work together to determine the overall aggressiveness of a scan. The combination of the two values set by these options determines how hard your target will get hit and to some extent also determines how many resources will be consumed on your local machine.
+
+#### A Note on Green Threads
+
+`feroxbuster` uses so-called [green threads](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_threads) as opposed to traditional kernel/OS threads. This means (at a high-level) that the threads are implemented entirely in userspace, within a single running process. As a result, a scan with 30 green threads will appear to the OS to be a single process with no additional light-weight processes associated with it as far as the kernel is concerned. As such, there will not be any impact to process (`nproc`) limits when specifying larger values for `-t`. However, these threads will still consume file descriptors, so you will need to ensure that you have a suitable `nlimit` set when scaling up the amount of threads. More detailed documentation on setting appropriate `nlimit` values can be found in the [No File Descriptors Available](#no-file-descriptors-available) section of the FAQ
+
+#### Threads and Connection Limits: The Implementation
+
+* Threads: The `-t` option specifies the maximum amount of active threads *per-directory* during a scan
+* Connection Limits: The `-L` option specifies the maximum amount of active connections per thread
+
+#### Threads and Connection Limits: Examples
+
+To truly have only 30 active requests to a site at any given time, `-t 30 -L 1` is necessary. Using `-t 30 -L 2` will result in a maximum of 60 total requests being processed at any given time for that site. And so on. For a conversation on this, please see [Issue #126](https://github.com/epi052/feroxbuster/issues/126) which may provide more (or less) clarity :wink:

+
+### Replay Responses to a Proxy based on Status Code (new in `v1.5.0`)
+
+The `--replay-proxy` and `--replay-codes` options were added as a way to only send a select few responses to a proxy.  This is in stark contrast to `--proxy` which proxies EVERY request.  
+
+Imagine you only care about proxying responses that have either the status code `200` or `302` (or you just don't want to clutter up your Burp history).  These two options will allow you to fine-tune what gets proxied and what doesn't.  
+
+```
+./feroxbuster -u http://127.1 --replay-proxy http://localhost:8080 --replay-codes 200 302 --insecure
+```
+
+Of note: this means that for every response that matches your replay criteria, you'll end up sending the request that generated that response a second time.  Depending on the target and your engagement terms (if any), it may not make sense from a traffic generated perspective.
+
+![replay-proxy-demo](img/replay-proxy-demo.gif)
+
+### Filter Response by Word Count & Line Count  (new in `v1.6.0`)
+
+In addition to filtering on the size of a response, version 1.6.0 added the ability to filter out responses based on the number of lines and/or words contained within the response body.  This change drove a change to the information displayed to the user as well. This section will detail the new information and how to make use of it with the new filters provided.
+
+Example output:
+```
+200        10l        212w       38437c https://example-site.com/index.html
+```
+
+There are five columns of output above:
+- column 1: status code - can be filtered with `-C|--filter-status`
+- column 2: number of lines - can be filtered with `-N|--filter-lines`
+- column 3: number of words - can be filtered with `-W|--filter-words`
+- column 4: number of bytes (overall size) - can be filtered with `-S|--filter-size`
+- column 5: url to discovered resource
+
+### Filter Response Using a Regular Expression (new in `v1.8.0`) 
+
+Version 1.3.0 included an overhaul to the filtering system which will allow for a wide array of filters to be added 
+with minimal effort. The latest addition is a Regular Expression Filter. As responses come back from the scanned server,
+the **body** of the response is checked against the filter's regular expression.  If the expression is found in the 
+body, then that response is filtered out.  
+
+**NOTE: Using regular expressions to filter large responses or many regular expressions may negatively impact performance.**  
+
+```
+./feroxbuster -u http://127.1 --filter-regex '[aA]ccess [dD]enied.?' --output results.txt --json
+```
+
+### Stop and Resume Scans (`--resume-from FILE`) (new in `v1.9.0`)
+
+Version 1.9.0 adds a few features that allow for completely stopping a scan, and resuming that same scan from a file on disk. 
+
+A simple `Ctrl+C` during a scan will create a file that contains information about the scan that was cancelled.

+Based on the example image above, the same scan can be resumed by using `feroxbuster --resume-from ferox-http_localhost-1606947491.state`.  Directories that were already complete are not rescanned, however partially complete scans are started from the beginning.

+
+In order to prevent state file creation when `Ctrl+C` is pressed, you can simply add the entry below to your `ferox-config.toml`.
+
+```toml
+# ferox-config.toml
+
+save_state = false
+```
+
+### Enforce a Time Limit on Your Scan (new in `v1.10.0`)
+
+Version 1.10.0 adds the ability to set a maximum runtime, or time limit, on your scan.  The usage is pretty simple: a number followed directly by a single character representing seconds, minutes, hours, or days.  `feroxbuster` refers to this combination as a time_spec.  
+
+Examples of possible time_specs:
+- `30s` - 30 seconds
+- `20m` - 20 minutes
+- `1h`  - 1 hour
+- `1d`  - 1 day (why??)
+
+A valid time_spec can be passed to `--time-limit` in order to force a shutdown after the given time has elapsed.

+summary: A simple, fast, recursive content discovery tool written in Rust
+description: |
+  feroxbuster is a tool designed to perform Forced Browsing.
+
+  Forced browsing is an attack where the aim is to enumerate and access resources that are not referenced by the web application, but are still accessible by an attacker.
+
+  feroxbuster uses brute force combined with a wordlist to search for unlinked content in target directories. These resources may store sensitive information about web applications and operational systems, such as source code, credentials, internal network addressing, etc...
+
+  This attack is also known as Predictable Resource Location, File Enumeration, Directory Enumeration, and Resource Enumeration.
