Maybe this could be implemented. For now you could edit ~/.geany/snippets.conf and change the 'while' key to 'wh'.
Yeah, I guess! Maybe that is a solution. As this will generate quite a few snippets, I would be concerned about the speed. But maybe this
As Frank told, try it. Anyway, the snippets are read from the file once at startup and then they are kept in a hash table which is a quite good data structure for this case. The code surely can be improved but I don't think speed is a real concern if you about up to 50 snippets. Check it out.
OK, I did check it out, and I have been using it for some time now, and I can report that it works just fine, no speed issues with my box. :)
I have one small issue with the snippets though, and with # in particular. Such as: #define
Is there a way to use hash in the snippet file? I tried to backslash it, but that did not work.
Obviously, whith hash being the comment character, one cant start the line with #d= ..
