> I'm still not sure what a "snippet" is, basically the combination of an interactive code template and an abbreviation plus trigger. Sets are activated according to context. (Like Perl mode) Here a demo for emacs http://youtube.com/watch?v=MayeP8Akwas > I should invent my own unicode mapping Most editors support the snippet model originating from TextMate, including converters. IIRC does Perl 6 allow alternative none unicode versions of it's operators. Like `>>` for `ť` Consequently "inventing" a generic and agnostic solution shouldn't be difficult, like typing `<<+TAB` or `oo+BAR` (for infinity) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply] [d/l] [select]

For code points that are to be used more than once, that is a feasible solution. However, if you need arbitrary characters, that you don't know in advance, the situation is more difficult.	[reply]

I copy and pasted the operators from the docs and massaged the text into cson by using a simple regex search and replace. Took 15 minutes including testing. holli You can lead your users to water, but alas, you cannot drown them.	[reply] [d/l]

I just want something that works out of the box, that I don't have to screw around with, that has a reasonable chance of working on a random machine that I find myself sitting in front of, that I can tell people "here use this it will solve your problems", but apparently that doesn't exist.	[reply]
