<p>Snippets are very useful and a marvelous way of improving productivity.  Some times I want to fill out a snippet in duplicate. Thus for instance, my snippet</p>
<p><code>L</code></p>
<p>expands to:</p>
<p><code>L=L< %cursor% | /%cursor%-help ></code></p>
<p>and I then type twice to get:</p>
<p><code>L<target|/target-help></code></p>
<p>But what I would really like to do is have a snippet like this:</p>
<p><code>L=L< %cursor% | /%cursor2%-help ></code></p>
<p>so that the second entry is made for me as I type the first.  A bit like: ctrl-alt-down arrow does.</p>
<p>Please consider adding such a productivity enhancing feature to your tremendous software.  Thanks!</p>
