# Verified on a Mac with Dash installed, and against the Homebrew cask `dash`,

# whose zap stanza names ~/Library/Application Support/Dash and

# ~/Library/Preferences/com.kapeli.dashdoc.plist.

# The preferences plist is the settings window: the docset list and search

# profiles, the global shortcut, appearance, the integrations.

# https://kapeli.com/dash_guide, on snippets: "Dash can sync snippets between

# Macs if you save your snippet library into your Dropbox or iCloud Drive

# folder. You can change your snippets library location in Settings > Snippets"

# — library.dash in the support directory is where that library starts out.

# The Mac App Store and Setapp builds carry different bundle identifiers

# (com.kapeli.dash and com.kapeli.dash-setapp); only the direct download's

# spelling is listed, because that is the one whose location is confirmed.

Opens Otty and adds this tool to what it syncs

Opens otty://sync/add/dash. Otty ships with this catalog, so the link only has to name the tool — nothing is downloaded.

Every one of these keeps the credential file out.
