+### 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:

+body, then that response is filtered out.

+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.
