.NET Client Wrapper for Snip2Code.

Snip2Code is a web service for software developers to collect, organize and share code snippets.
Each user can add his own snippets and decide, for each snippet:
a) to keep it private (nobody else can see it)
b) to share it with some other users belonging to a group (all the members of the group can see the snippet, only the administrators of the group and the creator of the snippet can edit it)
c) to publish it to the world (everyone can see the snippet, only the creator can edit it)


Each snippet is provided with:

• the title (mandatory), providing a quick understanding of the scope (e.g. the signature of a method)
• the description (optional), providing a more extended explanation of the behavior of the code, together with eventual notes (e.g. the documentation of a method)
• the code (mandatory), that is, the actual content of the snippet (e.g. the body of a method)
• the visibility (mandatory), that defines who can see and who can edit the snippet
• a set of tags (optional), which can help in retrieving and discovering the snippet among all the others
• a set of properties (optional), i.e. a set of key-value pairs that better define the scope and the environment of the snippet (e.g. the language, the operating system where it can run, the framework used, etc.)

The snippets can be published in channels, that are simple collections of snippets with a common topic.
Each snippet may belong to several channels.
