Hi All,
There are problems with the default snippets applying to all documents. It is not possible to add<snippet><tab> in a document even though the snippet is irrelevant to that filetype.
A recent conversation on the ML showed problems with the Haskell do snippet and shortly after I hit the problem adding "if<tab>" in a text document (Murphy I guess).
Basically having language specific snippets in the default section is just wrong.
Agreed.
The current defaults are C or C++ specific so in https://github.com/elextr/geany_stuff/raw/master/snippets.conf I moved them there and to Java, but I understand that other languages may want them as well so I decided to post here before committing.
First thing when I look at the file: it looks terribly repetitive! Maybe something in the style of filetype's sections copying ([name=othername]) would help having all this clearer, ending up with something like
I had started working on filetype-specific snippets here: https://github.com/codebrainz/geany/commit/9a635da79ecd9465c856ce9d02dd95c14...
This would let a `[snippets]` section be in the filetypes.* files and I think would support group copying like the `[styles]` section does.
It still needs some work, but it's a start.
