[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Inconsistent snippet expansion (#1560)

[philip r brenan]

Using the following snippets I am able to expand 𝝰 to **alpha** but unable to expand < to <> unless I add < to wordChars which was not needed for 𝝰 which seems inconsistent?  I think it would be helpful if symbols could be expanded in situations like **a<** without requiring a leading space, perhaps if they were listed in a symbol: "expandTheseItemsWithOutALeadingSpace" ?


[Special]
brace_open=\n{\n\t
brace_close=}\n
block=\n{\n\t%cursor%\n}
block_cursor=\n{\n\t%cursor%\n}\n%cursor%
wordchars=_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789#$%&:.

[Perl]
𝝰=alpha
<=<>
