+If you set `base_url` in your settings, you can also shorten the reference to the snippet like this:
+
+```cpp
+//snip("snippet.hpp")  // snip will download $base_url/snippet.hpp
+```
+
+And if you want to reference a snippet in your file system, just provide the path to the file:
+
+```cpp
+//snip("/home/you/snippet.hpp") // full path
+//snip("./snippet.hpp")         // relative path
+//snip("~/snippet.hpp")         // you can even reference your home path with ~
