Excerpts from av's message of Mon Jan 21 13:30:41 +0100 2013: > Try simpleSnip. Tell us why the UltiSnip and snipmate community should do it. Then we all have a nice overview about the available options.
I'll tell you why you should consider joining snipmate/ UltiSnip community: - UltiSnips is well tested - snipmate-snippets is a comprehensive list of snippets which can now be used with both: snipmate and UltiSnips - both snipmate and UltiSnips reload snippet files automatically based on timestamp. No need to remember any "reload" command Thus writing a new snippet will be available in all vim instances. - both support loading plugins from many files from runtimepath. In both cases you can override this behaviour easily - both projects have a comprehensive documentation. Your first release was 2012-11-17. UltiSnips dates back 2009. snipmate is also older. If you want to serve the community document why you had to start from scratch - so that its easier to judge which tool to use for what reason. Vim is not about reinventing the wheel (IMHO). But thanks for reminding me that I still have to port the autoindent feature to UltiSnips :) This mail only reflects my view. Its fine if other people think differently. Short note about "load snippets from other filetype": I think you should map :set ft= or such, because then you also get indentation and more support for the filetype you care about at that moment. Its a more universal solution. Yours Marc Weber -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
