ill look into that. I think the tag example was bad because mostly I am not trying to do this with code snippets.
I have a huge clippings library on dropbox for all my workstations, I have found that sometimes the clipping auto complete is context sensitive. I wish it werent so 'smart' as I like to mix my types for type testing, code checking etc. like before I can start typing php_preg_repl.... I have to save the document as a php document. I guess I can use scratchpad for this? I do like the select, clippings replace, then paste option though. cheers.bo On Thu, Apr 21, 2011 at 3:59 PM, Tim Gray <[email protected]> wrote: > On Apr 21, 2011 at 10:54 AM -0700, Bo wrote: > >> Is there a way to paste / wrap. >> >> for example, I select the word 'frack' in an html document is it >> somehow possible for me to copy <strong></strong> tags, then paste >> 'over' the selected text to wrap the selected text with the tags? >> > > You can do this with clippings.
