Geany version: 1.36

Attempting to create a `snippets.conf` by Tools -> Configuration Files -> snippets.conf brings up a file with comments that are all inverted.

``` Geany's snippets configuration file # # use \n or %newline% for a new line (it will be replaced by the used EOL char(s) - LF, CR/LF, CR). use \t or %ws% for an indentation step, it will be replaced according to the current document's indent mode. use \s to force whitespace at beginning or end of a value ('key= value' won't work, use 'key=\svalue'). use %key% for all keys defined in the [Special] section. use %cursor% to define where the cursor should be placed after completion. You can define multiple %cursor% wildcards and use the "Move cursor in snippet" to jump to the next defined cursor position in the completed snippet. You can define a section for each supported filetype to overwrite default settings, the section name must match exactly the internal filetype name, run 'geany --ft-names' for a full list. # # Additionally, you can use most of the template wildcards like {developer}, {command:...}, or {date} in the snippets. See the documentation for details.

For a list of available filetype names, execute: geany --ft-names

Default is used for all filetypes and keys can be overwritten by [filetype] sections # [Default]

special keys to be used in other snippets, cannot be used "standalone" can be used by %key%, e.g. %brace_open% nesting of special keys is not supported (e.g. brace_open=\n{\n%brace_close% won't work) key "wordchars" is very special, it defines the word delimiting characters when looking for a word to auto complete, leave commented to use the default wordchars # [Special] # brace_open=\n{\n\t # brace_close=}\n # block=\n{\n\t%cursor%\n} # block_cursor=\n{\n\t%cursor%\n} # #wordchars=_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789
