[Geany-devel] Default Snippets

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.

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.

I'll collate suggestions, patches etc then commit.

Cheers
Lex
