snap install micro --classic
```
-**Note for Linux:** for interfacing with the local system clipboard, `xclip` or `xsel`
-must be installed. Please see the section on [Linux clipboard support](https://github.com/zyedidia/micro#linux-clipboard-support)

Micro is also available through other package managers on Linux such dnf, AUR, Nix, and package managers
for other operating systems. These packages are not guaranteed to be up-to-date.
* Linux: Available in distro-specific package managers.
* `dnf install micro` (Fedora).
+ * `apt install micro` (Ubuntu and Debian).
* `pacman -S micro` (Arch Linux).
+ * `emerge app-editors/micro` (Gentoo).
* `eopkg install micro` (Solus).
+ * `pacstall -I micro` (Pacstall).
* See [wiki](https://github.com/zyedidia/micro/wiki/Installing-Micro) for details about CRUX, Termux.
* Windows: [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org) and [Scoop](https://github.com/lukesampson/scoop).
* `choco install micro`.
* macOS with [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org):
* `sudo port install micro`
+**Note for Linux desktop environments:**
+
+For interfacing with the local system clipboard, the following tools need to be installed:
+* For X11 `xclip` or `xsel`
+* For [Wayland](https://wayland.freedesktop.org/) `wl-clipboard`
+
+Without these tools installed, micro will use an internal clipboard for copy and paste, but it won't be accessible to external applications.

### Building from source
If your operating system does not have a binary release, but does run Go, you can build from source.
If you still insist on using the default Mac terminal, be sure to set `Use Option key as Meta key` under
`Preferences->Profiles->Keyboard` to use <kbd>option</kbd> as <kbd>alt</kbd>.
-### Linux clipboard support
-
-On Linux, clipboard support requires:
-
-- On X11, the `xclip` or `xsel` commands (for Ubuntu: `sudo apt install xclip`)
-- On Wayland, the `wl-clipboard` command
-
-If you don't have these commands, micro will use an internal clipboard for copy and paste, but it won't work with external applications.
-
### Colors and syntax highlighting
If you open micro and it doesn't seem like syntax highlighting is working, this is probably because
micro also supports creating buffers from `stdin`:
```sh
-ifconfig | micro
+ip a | micro
```
You can move the cursor around with the arrow keys and mouse.
