\section{Snow Package Manager}
Beyond the distributed modules, Chibi comes with a package manager
based on \hyperlink["http://trac.sacrideo.us/wg/wiki/Snow"]{Snow2}
which can be used to share R7RS libraries. Packages are distributed
as tar gzipped files called "snowballs," and may contain multiple
libraries. The program is installed as \scheme{snow-chibi} and takes
the following subcommands:
\subsubsection{Querying Packages}
\itemlist[
\item{search terms ... - search for packages
\p{Prints a list of available packages matching the given keywords.}}
\item{show names ... - show package descriptions
\p{Show detailed information for the listed packages, which can
be sexp library names or the dotted shorthand used by chibi.}}
\item{status names ... - print package status
\p{Print the installed version of the given packages.}}
]
\subsubsection{Managing Packages}
\itemlist[
\item{install names ... - install packages
\p{Install the given packages.}}
\item{upgrade names ... - upgrade installed packages

]
\subsubsection{Creating Packages}
\itemlist[
\item{package files ... - create a package
\p{Create a package snowball from the given files, which should

\item{gen-key - create an RSA key pair
\p{Create a new private key pair.}}
\item{sign file - sign a package
\p{Sign a file with your private key and write it to the .sig file.}}
\item{verify file - verify a signature
\p{Print a message verifying if a signature is valid.}}
\item{reg-key - register an RSA key pair
\p{Register your key on the default snow host.}}
