The script I wrote for the purpose (and just updated for publicizing) does not work from inside an editor but does interactively replace placeholders (format configurable) in a text file with prompted-for values, optionally silently inserting already "known" values on subsequent occurrences of the same placeholder. You can also optionally preload a default key-value mapping from a YAML or JSON file and/or save the collected/modified data to a YAML file. https://github.com/bpj/placeholder-prompt > so have people attempted this? if so which api should I be looking at.. > > >>> -- > -- > You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. > Do not top-post!
