<div class="section" id="how-to-define-snippets-with-named-by-characters-not-supported-by-the-filesystem">
<h1>How to define snippets with named by characters not supported by the filesystem?</h1>
<p>For example, you want to define a snippet by the key <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&lt;</span></tt> which is not a
valid character for filename on Windows. In this case, you may use
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">yas/define</span></tt> to define the snippet. If you want to enjoy defining
snippets in a file, you can use the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">key</span></tt> property to specify the key of
the defined snippet explicitly.</p>
<p>Just name your snippet with an arbitrary valid filename, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">lt</span></tt> for
example. and specify <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&lt;</span></tt> for the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">key</span></tt> property:</p>
<div class="section" id="why-doesn-t-tab-navigation-work-with-flyspell">
<h1>Why doesn't TAB navigation work with flyspell</h1>
<p>A workaround is to inhibit flyspell overlays while the snippet is active:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre>(add-hook &#39;flyspell-incorrect-hook
#&#39;(lambda (dummy1 dummy2 dymmy3)
(and yas/active-field-overlay
(overlay-buffer yas/active-field-overlay))))
</pre></div>
<p>This is apparently related to overlay priorities. For some reason, the
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">keymap</span></tt> property of flyspell's overlays always takes priority over
the same property in yasnippet's overlays, even if one sets the
latter's <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">priority</span></tt> property to something big. If you know
emacs-lisp and can solve this problem, drop a line in the <a class="reference external" href="http://groups.google.com/group/smart-snippet">discussion

<h1>How do I define an abbrev key containing characters not supported by the filesystem?</h1>
<p>For example, you want to define a snippet by the key <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&lt;</span></tt> which is
not a valid character for filename on Windows. This means you can't
use the filename as a trigger key in this case.</p>
<p>You should rather use the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">#</span> <span class="pre">key:</span></tt> directive to specify the key of
the defined snippet explicitly and name your snippet with an arbitrary
valid filename, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">lt.yasnippet</span></tt> for example, using <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&lt;</span></tt> for the
