### Important 12/Aug/2015 update: 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.
Let’s see if we can get the elegance, simplicity, and speed of Homebrew for 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).
