I heard that some Unix/Linux platform package managers include No More Secrets, but this time I will build it myself using Debian. Install the necessary tools first.
[code]sudo apt install gcc git make[/code]

Then clone the repository with the code below.
[code]git clone https://github.com/bartobri/no-more-secrets.git
cd ./no-more-secrets[/code]

And install it with the code below.
[code] make nms
make sneakers
sudo make install[/code]

You are now ready to go. When using it, you can pipe the content you want to display into 'nms'. I tried the following command using the 'ls' command to display the file.
[code]ls -l | nms -a[/code]
