Code Snippet Managers for Linux desktops? [closed]

In the spirit of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3349990/code-snippet-managers-for-os-x

What are some good code snippet managers for Linux?

My quick search didn’t turn up much. Eclipse, emacs, vim, Kate, and KDevelop all offer their own integrated snippet managers, but I’m looking for something more generic along the lines of CodeCollector or Snippets, ideally with the option of a CLI interface.

Even a pure CLI tool would be acceptable (maybe even preferable).

Answer

Have you seen jCodeCollector? It’s a significantly less complicated clone of CodeCollector, but is multiplatform (java). It is available from https://github.com/alessandrococco/jcodecollector

There is also Acire, a project started by Jono Bacon of Ubuntu fame, which is management library for useful python snippets. While full of useful tidbits, it is however, language and linux-specific.
