Hi folks,

since we started our snippet collection we/you constantly added new
snippets and now its time to announce the integration of the
***100ths*** Snippet.

great, really good news.

It seems that the snippet page will be more and more accepted and that makes me proud to see that this good idea find it's way and shows how the community can work.

Thank you Tom for maintaining and hosting the page and thank you Paolo for the SnippetCreator.

Let me say some words on the snippets and what i have in mind with at least the Basic snippets. I would like to see a lot of small snippets which can be categorized and sorted easily. The idea is to have some kind of snippet browser in the Basic IDE some time in the future. The browse should make it possible to simply browse over a huge snippet collection and using drag and drop to insert a snippet in an existing macro. Ideally the important variables/points which needs adaption can be accessed easily by navigation with the tab key. How it should look like in detail i have no idea yet but i assume that it can help beginners to get started with macros and of course it can speed up the work of power macros coders.

I think that this can be implemented as a component (maybe we have to support some special interfaces) and maybe their is one more volunteers in the community who are interested in such a project. It is a good way to get started without deep knowledge of the code base.

Don't hesitate to come back on the list with your own ideas or when you are simply interested to help.

Today I've added 31 Snippets provided by students form the University of
Vienna with a total amount of 120 Snippets.

I want to say a great thank you to all how contributed.

Next major target is to translate the snippets into other languages.

Tom
