YASnippet re-design and re-writing of my original extension
smart-snippet. The goal is ease of use and full features.
*YASnippet* is a template system for Emacs. It allows you to type an
abbreviation and automatically expand it into function
templates. Bundled language templates includes: C, C++, C#, Perl, Python, Ruby,
SQL, LaTeX, HTML, CSS and more. The snippet syntax is inspired from [http://manual.macromates.com/en/snippets TextMate's] syntax, you can even
[http://yasnippet.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/snippet-development.html#importing-textmate-snippets import] most !TextMate templates to YASnippet. Watch [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76Ygeg9miao a demo at YouTube] or download a higher resolution version ([http://yasnippet.googlecode.com/files/yas_demo.avi yas_demo.avi])
For detailed document, you can either download the document
release of YASnippet or view it directly online:
====Install with yasnippet-bundle.el====
http://pluskid.lifegoo.com/upload/project/yasnippet/doc/index.html
To quickly tryout YASnippet, download the simpler "bundle" version.
If you plan to modify the bundled templates and/or build your own,
download the "normal" package.
# Download yasnippet-bundle on the right sidebar and unpack it.
# You'll get a file named `yasnippet-bundle.el`, put it in `~/.emacs.d/plugins/` (create that directory if not exists).
# Open the file in Emacs, and type `Alt+x eval-buffer`.
That's it. Now open any file, you'll see a menu "YASnippet". You can
pull down the menu to insert a template. Or, you can type a pre-defined
abbrev and press TAB to expand it!
To have Emacs load YASnippet automatically when it starts, put the following in your ~/.emacs file:
{{{
(add-to-list 'load-path
"~/.emacs.d/plugins")
(require 'yasnippet-bundle)
}}}
==== Normal install ====
To install the normal archive, download and unpack the
latest yasnippet-x.y.z.tar.bz2. You'll get a directory named
yasnippet-x.y.z, put it in your ~/.emacs.d/plugins and add the following in
your .emacs file:
{{{
(add-to-list 'load-path
"~/.emacs.d/plugins/yasnippet-x.y.z")
(require 'yasnippet) ;; not yasnippet-bundle
(yas/initialize)
(yas/load-directory "~/.emacs.d/plugins/yasnippet-x.y.z/snippets")
}}}
