-==============================================================================
-DESCRIPTION *snipMate-description*
-
-snipMate.vim 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 <tab>.
-
-For instance, in a C file using the default installation of snipMate.vim, if
-you type "for<tab>" 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 <tab> 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.
-
-==============================================================================
-SYNTAX *snippet-syntax*
-
-Snippets can be defined in two ways. They can be in their own file, named
-after their trigger in 'snippets/<filetype>/<trigger>.snippet', or they can be
-defined together in a 'snippets/<filetype>.snippets' file.
-
-The syntax for snippets in *.snippets files is the following: >
-
- snippet trigger
- expanded text
- more expanded text
-
-Note that the first hard tab after the snippet trigger is required, and not
-expanded in the actual snippet. The syntax for *.snippet files is the same,
-only without the trigger declaration and starting indentation.
-
-Also note that snippets must be defined using hard tabs. They can be expanded
-to spaces later if desired (see |snipMate-indenting|).
-
-"#" is used as a line-comment character in *.snippets files; however, they can
-only be used outside of a snippet declaration. E.g.: >
-
- # this is a correct comment
- snippet trigger
- expanded text
- snippet another_trigger
- # this doesn't work!
- expanded text
-<
-This should hopefully be obvious with the included syntax highlighting.
-
- *snipMate-${#}*
-Tab stops ~
-
-By default, the cursor is placed at the end of a snippet. To specify where the
-cursor is to be placed next, use "${#}", where the # is the number of the tab
-stop. E.g., to place the cursor first on the id of a <div> tag, and then allow
-the user to press <tab> to go to the middle of it:
- >
- snippet div
- <div id="${1}">
- ${2}
- </div>
-<
- *snipMate-placeholders* *snipMate-${#:}* *snipMate-$#*
-Placeholders ~
-
-Placeholder text can be supplied using "${#:text}", where # is the number of
-the tab stop. This text then can be copied throughout the snippet using "$#",
-given # is the same number as used before. So, to make a C for loop: >
-
- snippet for
- for (${2:i}; $2 < ${1:count}; $1++) {
- ${4}
- }
-
-This will cause "count" to first be selected and change if the user starts
-typing. When <tab> is pressed, the "i" in ${2}'s position will be selected;
-all $2 variables will default to "i" and automatically be updated if the user
-starts typing.
-NOTE: "$#" syntax is used only for variables, not for tab stops as in TextMate.
-
-Variables within variables are also possible. For instance: >
-
- snippet opt
- <option value="${1:option}">${2:$1}</option>
-
-Will, as usual, cause "option" to first be selected and update all the $1
-variables if the user starts typing. Since one of these variables is inside of
-${2}, this text will then be used as a placeholder for the next tab stop,
-allowing the user to change it if he wishes.
-
-To copy a value throughout a snippet without supplying default text, simply
-use the "${#:}" construct without the text; e.g.: >
-
- snippet foo
- ${1:}bar$1
-< *snipMate-commands*
-Interpolated Vim Script ~
-
-Snippets can also contain Vim script commands that are executed (via |eval()|)
-when the snippet is inserted. Commands are given inside backticks (`...`); for
-TextMates's functionality, use the |system()| function. E.g.: >
-
- snippet date
- `system("date +%Y-%m-%d")`
-
-will insert the current date, assuming you are on a Unix system. Note that you
-can also (and should) use |strftime()| for this example.
-
-Filename([{expr}] [, {defaultText}]) *snipMate-filename* *Filename()*
-
-Since the current filename is used often in snippets, a default function
-has been defined for it in snipMate.vim, appropriately called Filename().
-
-With no arguments, the default filename without an extension is returned;
-the first argument specifies what to place before or after the filename,
-and the second argument supplies the default text to be used if the file
-has not been named. "$1" in the first argument is replaced with the filename;
-if you only want the filename to be returned, the first argument can be left
-blank. Examples: >
-
- snippet filename
- `Filename()`
- snippet filename_with_default
- `Filename('', 'name')`
- snippet filename_foo
- `filename('$1_foo')`
-
-The first example returns the filename if it the file has been named, and an
-empty string if it hasn't. The second returns the filename if it's been named,
-and "name" if it hasn't. The third returns the filename followed by "_foo" if
-it has been named, and an empty string if it hasn't.
-
- *multi_snip*
-To specify that a snippet can have multiple matches in a *.snippets file, use
-this syntax: >
-
- snippet trigger A description of snippet #1
- expand this text
- snippet trigger A description of snippet #2
- expand THIS text!
-
-In this example, when "trigger<tab>" is typed, a numbered menu containing all
-of the descriptions of the "trigger" will be shown; when the user presses the
-corresponding number, that snippet will then be expanded.
-
-To create a snippet with multiple matches using *.snippet files,
-simply place all the snippets in a subdirectory with the trigger name:
-'snippets/<filetype>/<trigger>/<name>.snippet'.
-
-==============================================================================
-USAGE *snipMate-usage*
-
- *'snippets'* *g:snippets_dir*
-Snippets are by default looked for any 'snippets' directory in your
-'runtimepath'. Typically, it is located at '~/.vim/snippets/' on *nix or
-'$HOME\vimfiles\snippets\' on Windows. To change that location or add another
-one, change the g:snippets_dir variable in your |.vimrc| to your preferred
-directory, or use the |ExtractSnips()|function. This will be used by the
-|globpath()| function, and so accepts the same syntax as it (e.g.,
-comma-separated paths).
-
-ExtractSnipsFile({directory}, {filetype}) *ExtractSnipsFile()* *.snippets*
-
-ExtractSnipsFile() extracts the specified *.snippets file for the given
-filetype. A .snippets file contains multiple snippet declarations for the
-filetype. It is further explained above, in |snippet-syntax|.
-
-ExtractSnips({directory}, {filetype}) *ExtractSnips()* *.snippet*
-
-ExtractSnips() extracts *.snippet files from the specified directory and
-defines them as snippets for the given filetype. The directory tree should
-look like this: 'snippets/<filetype>/<trigger>.snippet'. If the snippet has
-multiple matches, it should look like this:
-'snippets/<filetype>/<trigger>/<name>.snippet' (see |multi_snip|).
-
- *ResetSnippets()*
-The ResetSnippets() function removes all snippets from memory. This is useful
-to put at the top of a snippet setup file for if you would like to |:source|
-it multiple times.
-
- *list-snippets* *i_CTRL-R_<Tab>*
-If you would like to see what snippets are available, simply type <c-r><tab>
-in the current buffer to show a list via |popupmenu-completion|.
-
-==============================================================================
-SETTINGS *snipMate-settings* *g:snips_author*
-
-The g:snips_author string (similar to $TM_FULLNAME in TextMate) should be set
-to your name; it can then be used in snippets to automatically add it. E.g.: >
-
- let g:snips_author = 'Hubert Farnsworth'
- snippet name
- `g:snips_author`
-<
- *snipMate-expandtab* *snipMate-indenting*
-If you would like your snippets to be expanded using spaces instead of tabs,
-just enable 'expandtab' and set 'softtabstop' to your preferred amount of
-spaces. If 'softtabstop' is not set, 'shiftwidth' is used instead.
-
- *snipMate-remap*
-snipMate does not come with a setting to customize the trigger key, but you
-can remap it easily in the two lines it's defined in the 'after' directory
-under 'plugin/snipMate.vim'. For instance, to change the trigger key
-to shift-tab, just change this: >
-
- ino <tab> <c-r>=TriggerSnippet()<cr>
- snor <tab> <esc>i<right><c-r>=TriggerSnippet()<cr>
-
-to this: >
- ino <s-tab> <c-r>=TriggerSnippet()<cr>
- snor <s-tab> <esc>i<right><c-r>=TriggerSnippet()<cr>
-
-==============================================================================
-FEATURES *snipMate-features*
-
-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
- markers/placeholders written to the buffer), which allows 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.
- - (New) File-based snippets are supported.
- - (New) Triggers after non-word delimiters are expanded, e.g. "foo"
- in "bar.foo".
-
-==============================================================================
-DISADVANTAGES *snipMate-disadvantages*
-
-snipMate.vim currently has the following disadvantages to TextMate's snippets:
- - There is no way to go back a tab stop, like shift-tab in TextMate.
- - There is no $0; the order of tab stops must be explicitly stated.
- - Placeholders within placeholders are not possible. E.g.: >
-
- '<div${1: id="${2:some_id}}">${3}</div>'
-<
- In TextMate this would first highlight ' id="some_id"', and if
- you hit delete it would automatically skip ${2} and go to ${3}
- on the next <tab>, but if you didn't delete it it would highlight
- "some_id" first. You cannot do this in snipMate.vim.
- - Regex cannot be performed on variables, such as "${1/.*/\U&}"
- - Placeholders cannot span multiple lines.
- - Activating snippets in different scopes of the same file is
- not possible.
-
-Perhaps some of these features will be added in a later release.
