+ The buffer is in =snippet-mode= (see below). When you are done
+ editing the new snippet, use =C-c C-c= to save it. This will

+ (with a default based on the major mode you started in), and then
+ then snippet collection directory (defaults to the first directory
+ in =yas-snippet-dirs=. (See [[file:snippet-organization.org][Organizing
