Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Via [composer](http://getcomposer.org):

```
$ composer global require sven/emote-cli
```

Ensure Composer's global bin directory is included in your path. This directory is located at `~/.composer/vendor/bin` on macOS / Linux, and at `%APPDATA%/Composer/vendor/bin` on Windows.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Fetch an emote by its name:

```
$ emote get cute
(｡◕‿◕｡)
```

Copy it to your clipboard immediately:

```
$ emote get cute | clip
```

**Note:** This is an OS-dependent feature, and there are several options available per OS. It just outputs the emote to `stdout`, which should be enough information for people familiar with the command line to figure it out.
