This post presents snippets that help make paper writing a breeze in Sublime Text 2 (see my earlier post on how to create snippets, this should also help you if you are confused by the overall structure of Sublime Text 2 snippets). Skip to the end of this post to download the snippets. Snippets are one of the coolest features in Sublime Text 2. Selecting from a library of predefined snippets of code makes life much easier when coding. Sublime has some snippets included by default, but you can easily create your own. In this tutorial we will explore how snippets work and how you can create your own custom snippets. Yii2 snippets for Sublime Text. Contribute to psy-man/yii2-snippets development by creating an account on GitHub. See full list on economistry.com. But still, once I discovered Sublime Text 2, there was no going back. So in this course, I'd like to pass onto you every fragment of information that I've picked up on using this amazing editor. But if you're not quite sure and need the elevator pitch, well here's just a handful of things that make Sublime stand out.

Whether you are coding or writing the next vampire best-seller, you're likely toneed certain short fragments of text again and again. Use snippets to save yourselftedious typing. Take on me synth sheet music. Snippets are smart templates that will insert text for you,adapting it to their context.
To create a new snippet, select Tools | New Snippet…. C compiler download mac. Sublime Text willpresent you with an skeleton for a new snippet.
Snippets can be stored under any package's folder, but to keep it simple whileyou're learning, you can save them to your Packages/User
folder.
Snippets File Format¶
Snippets typically live in a Sublime Text package. They are simplified XML fileswith the extension .sublime-snippet. For instance, you could have agreeting.sublime-snippet
inside an Email
package.
The structure of a typical snippet is as follows (including the default hintsSublime Text inserts for your convenience):
The snippet
element contains all the information Sublime Text needs in orderto know what to insert, whether to insert and when. Let's see all ofthese parts in turn.

The actual snippet. Snippets can range from simple to fairly complextemplates. We'll look at examples of both later.

- If you want to get a literal
$
, you have to escape it like this:$
. - When writing a snippet that contains indentation, always use tabs.When the snippet is inserted, the tabs will be transformed into spacesif the option

. - The
content
must be included in asection.Snippets won't work if you don't do this!
- The
content
of your snippet must not contain]]>
because thisstring of characters will prematurely close thesection,resulting in an XML error. To work around this pitfall, you can insert anundefined variable into the string like this:
]]$NOT_DEFINED>
. Thismodified string passes through the XML parser without closing the contentelement'ssection, but Sublime Text will replace
$NOT_DEFINED
with an empty string before inserting the snippet intoyour document. In other words,]]$NOT_DEFINED>
in your snippet filecontent
will be written as]]>
when you trigger the snippet.
tabTrigger
Defines the sequence of keys that must be pressed to insert this snippet. After typingthis sequence, the snippet will kick in as soon as you hit the Tab
key.
A tab trigger is an implicit key binding.

Snippet Features¶
Environment Variables¶
Snippets have access to contextual information in the form of environment variables.Sublime Text automatically sets the values of the variables listed below.
You can also add your own variables to provide extra information. These customvariables are defined in .sublime-options
files.
$PARAM1, $PARAM2. | Arguments passed to the insert_snippet command. (Not covered here.) |
$SELECTION | The text that was selected when the snippet was triggered. |
$TM_CURRENT_LINE | Content of the cursor's line when the snippet was triggered. |
$TM_CURRENT_WORD | Word under the cursor when the snippet was triggered. |
$TM_FILENAME | Name of the file being edited, including extension. |
$TM_FILEPATH | Path to the file being edited. |
$TM_FULLNAME | User's user name. |
$TM_LINE_INDEX | Column where the snippet is being inserted, 0 based. |
$TM_LINE_NUMBER | Row where the snippet is being inserted, 1 based. |
$TM_SELECTED_TEXT | An alias for $SELECTION. |
$TM_SOFT_TABS | YES if translate_tabs_to_spaces is true, otherwise NO . |
$TM_TAB_SIZE | Spaces per-tab (controlled by the tab_size option). |
Let's see a simple example of a snippet using variables:
Fields¶
Sublime Snippet Example
With the help of field markers, you can cycle through positions within thesnippet by pressing the Tab
key. Fields are used to walk you through thecustomization of a snippet after it's been inserted. Snapper 2 1 10.
In the example above, the cursor will jump to $1
if you press Tab
once.If you press Tab
a second time, it will advance to $2
, etc. You can alsomove backwards in the series with Shift+Tab
. If you press Tab
after thehighest tab stop, Sublime Text will place the cursor at the end of the snippet'scontent, enabling you to resume normal editing.
If you want to control where the exit point should be, use the $0
mark. Bydefault, the exit point is the end of the snippet.
You can break out of the field cycle any time by pressing Esc
.
Mirrored Fields¶
Sublime Text 2
Identical field markers mirror each other: when you edit the first one, the restwill be populated in real time with the same value.
In this example, 'User name' will be filled out with the same value as 'First Name'.
Placeholders¶
Sublime 2 Tutorial
By expanding the field syntax a little bit, you can define default values fora field. Placeholders are useful whenever there's a general case for your snippet,but still you still want to keep it customizable.
Variables can be used as placeholders:
And you can nest placeholders within other placeholders too:
Substitutions¶
In addition to the placeholder syntax, tab stops can specify more complexoperations with substitutions. Use substitutions to dynamically generate textbased on a mirrored tab stop. Of course, the tab stop you want to use asvariable has to be mirrored somewhere else in the snippet.
The substitution syntax has the following syntaxes:
${var_name/regex/format_string/}
${var_name/regex/format_string/options}

- var_name
- The variable name: 1, 2, 3…
- regex
- Perl-style regular expression: See the Boost library documentation forregular expressions.
- format_string
- See the Boost library documentation for format strings.
- options
- Optional. May be any of the following:
- i
- Case-insensitive regex.
- g
- Replace all occurrences of
regex
. - m
- Don't ignore newlines in the string.
With substitutions you can, for instance, underline text effortlessly:
