#Usage Make sure your user has access to the .snapshots folders.
Right click on file, open properties.
If one or more snapshots exists a new tab Snapper will appear.
Double click on the version you want to open.
It will open the file with xdg-open

#Info The list in the Snapper-tab gets filtered by the
last modification date of the file/snapshot.
It wont show multiple results for the same modification date.
It also wont show the actual state.

#Todo

• Display the age of the file in min/hours/days.
• Display the description snapper list somehow.
• Ability to simply diff (context-menu ?).
• Message or something when access to .snapshots is denied.

#Bugs xdg-open wont ask for which application to use for unknow file extensions..
