Thanks for uploading the code. I hadn't thought of parsing the body of 
the replaced code, it's interesting to see. Perhaps if we added 
snippets to Geany it might be easier to describe the locations of each 
field as part of the snippet definition, rather than parse them.

I think the Scribes editor also supports snippets, it might be 
interesting to see how it's done there.
