#### Important: At some point in the future Homebrew-cask will change its behaviour from linking apps to moving them. See [issue #13201](https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/issues/13201) for details.
Homebrew-Cask extends [Homebrew](http://brew.sh) and brings its elegance, simplicity, and speed to the installation and management of GUI Mac applications such as Google Chrome and Adium.
It’s implemented as a `homebrew` [external command](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/share/doc/homebrew/External-Commands.md) called `cask`.

We still have bugs — and we are busy fixing them! If you have a problem, don’t be shy about reporting it on our [GitHub issues page](https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/issues?state=open). Always search for your issue before posting a new one.
When reporting bugs, remember that homebrew-cask is an independent project from Homebrew. Do your best to direct bug reports to the appropriate project. If your command-line started with `brew cask`, bring the bug to us first!
If the issue persists, please run the problematic command with the `--verbose` flag and post its and `brew cask doctor`’s outputs in distinct [fenced code blocks](https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown/#fenced-code-blocks).
