I would like to see BBEdit have the option to auto close brackets.
I find that a lot of times when writing css I have to use several
keystrokes to write out a tag without any properties.
Let's say I am styling the p tag, if I know in advance I'm going to
have more than one property I do the following:
p
space
{
return
return
}
up arrow
tab
p {
/*begin typing*/
}
where inserting the property:value would be the next step. It takes 8
steps to get to the tab. It would seem to speed up the coding if I
when I hit return after the opening bracket if BBEdit would return
twice insert a closing bracket, up arrow once tab over and have it
waiting for me to type. I've used ide's that offer this and it is a
huge time saver. I know not everyone likes this but for those that do
it would be a great implementation.
another thing is when I'm typing in html and type say <div: BBEdit
hints at div and places it putting the cursor between the opening and
closing tags like so: <div><##></div> More often than not I'm
backspacing so I can add a class, id or some other attribute. It would
be nice if we could somehow tweak the clippings for our preferences.
Overall I love using BBEdit. Great app.
