A code snippet is an idiom much used in source codes or marked-up texts. Here are the basic steps to use (and they are almost all): 1. Register snippets (generally in filetype plugins). 2. Type a trigger string in the insert mode. 3. Press < S-CR > or < C-CR > to expand a snippet, and jump to each next/previous placeholder. 4. Press < CR > to fill in a placeholder.Snippets are registered as abbreviations. You can therefore expand them by pressing < Esc > like mere abbreviations.Placeholders can contain default strings. This plugin is well configurable. You can configure these points:· Map commands to other keys.· Use the select mode instead of the visual mode.· Change the format of placeholders in general or buffer-local.Example:Type like this in the commandline mode. :StringAbbrLocal fputs() "fputs(, )"Then type like this in the insert mode. fputs()And press < S-CR >. fputs(, )The line is expanded like above and "" is selected in the visual mode. "" is a placeholder. Each time you press < S-CR >, the cursor jumps to the next placeholder. Press < C-CR > to jump back to the previous placeholder.When you press < CR >, the placeholder under the cursor is cut and Vim switches to the insert mode. So that you can fill in the place. Pressing < CR > at the second placeholder "", the default string "stderr" is inserted. If you want to insert another word, it can be deleted by pressing < C-U > (see :help i_Ctrl-U).
