It's taken me a while to catch on, bit I finally realised that this is a sensible bit of copy/paste stuff to turn into an #Emacs #Yasnippet for doing #Textual coding.

#lang_eo #emacs #yasnippet

@louis I used to, but not anymore.

Back then I used a LaTeX template with some #elisp glue to address/print/sign/mail it and have several standard paragraphs under some keybindings (pre- #YASnippet times this was).

I think I even had an envelope macro as well which printed the address on the envelope directly, so the only thing left to do at the printer was lick the envelope ;-)

As for what packages were involved, I don't remember.

@xenodium Inspiring! thanks, thanks, thanks.

Some of us are still learning how to make the best of #shell, #eshell , #yasnippet , and so many things!

BTW, would you like to participate and share your knowledge in a online session with #hispaemacs community ( https://hispa-emacs.org ) ? That would be great !

Gracias, gracias, gracias !

#emacs #yasnippet

I posted a new blog post on auto-complete for email salutations in #emacs: start by writing "dear<TAB>" and the names of the recipients will be filled in automatically thanks to #yasnippet and some #elisp. No more embarrassing typos -- at least not in the salutation! :)

Do you use #YASnippet to write code ?

I found a neat way to use #yasnippet in #Emacs so that it presents a selection of templates from GitHub's gitignore collection whenever I visit a new #gitignore buffer -- no more excuses for not adding a gitignore file to every new repository! :D

Quite easy to extend to e.g. LICENSE files to be populated with CC/FOSS licenses, ...
