61 various features for doing tedious and repetitive typing chores for you
34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man

64 One solution is using skeletons, flexible rules that say what to
34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man
Glenn Morris <rgm@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
65 insert, and how to do it. Various programming language modes offer some
34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man
Glenn Morris <rgm@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
66 ready-to-use skeletons, and you can adapt them to suit your needs or

34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man
Glenn Morris <rgm@gnu.org>
parents:

71 a skeleton inserted, or you can call a function. Then there is the

72 possibility to have Un*x interpreter scripts automatically take on a magic

114 programming language you are using, skeletons are a means of accomplishing
34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man
Glenn Morris <rgm@gnu.org>
parents:

115 this. Normally skeletons each have a command of their own, that, when called,
34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man
Glenn Morris <rgm@gnu.org>

116 will insert the skeleton. These commands can be issued in the usual ways

Glenn Morris <rgm@gnu.org>

129 furnish it. An example would be multiple ``else if'' conditions. You can
34396c5da491 Move here from ../../man

130 recognize this situation by a prompt ending in @key{RET}, @kbd{C-g}
