vim-snipmate - 0.90-2 main

SnipMate.vim aims to be an unobtrusive, concise vim script that implements
some of TextMate's snippets features in Vim. A snippet is a piece of
often-typed text that you can insert into your document using a trigger word
followed by a .
.
For instance, in a C file using the default installation of snipMate.vim, if
you type "for" in insert mode, it will expand a typical for loop in C:
.
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
.
}
.
To go to the next item in the loop, simply over to it; if there is
repeated code, such as the "i" variable in this example, you can simply start
typing once it's highlighted and all the matches specified in the snippet will
be updated.
.
snipMate.vim has the following features among others:
.
- The syntax of snippets is very similar to TextMate's, allowing easy
conversion.
- The position of the snippet is kept transparently (i.e., it does not use
marks/placeholders inserted into the buffer), allowing you to escape out
of an incomplete snippet, something particularly useful in Vim.
- Variables in snippets are updated as-you-type.
- Snippets can have multiple matches.
- Snippets can be out of order. For instance, in a do...while loop, the
condition can be added before the code.
