welcome back to emacs rocks

0:00:03.067,0:00:04.807
it's episode six

0:00:04.807,0:00:07.221
and today we're gonna look at yasnippets

0:00:07.221,0:00:11.167
it's pretty much a port from TextMate, except ...

0:00:11.167,0:00:14.767
*even more rocking!*

0:00:14.767,0:00:19.567
like TextMate snippets you can expand a mnemonic shortcut

0:00:19.567,0:00:22.362
you also get placeholders

0:00:27.562,0:00:30.567
and like TextMate you can mirror fields

0:00:30.567,0:00:33.367
and even transform them

0:00:33.367,0:00:35.033
check this out

0:00:35.033,0:00:37.100
it strips off the directory

0:00:37.100,0:00:41.148
and even camelCases the var for me

0:00:45.533,0:00:48.067
so, TextMate can do all this

0:00:48.067,0:00:49.900
it even looks a lot like TextMate,

0:00:49.900,0:00:52.879
you've got placeholders and stops

0:00:52.879,0:00:55.867
but check out this mirror field

0:00:55.867,0:01:00.100
I've embedded lisp directly into the snippet

0:01:00.100,0:01:02.667
it strips off the directory

0:01:02.667,0:01:04.900
it camel cases

0:01:04.900,0:01:08.940
here, TextMate uses *regular expressions*

0:01:08.940,0:01:11.867
with yasnippets, you get the power

0:01:11.867,0:01:17.333
and the functional fingerlickingly good lispness with your snippets

0:01:17.333,0:01:19.552
nice!

0:01:20.167,0:01:24.290
so let's see that again

0:01:25.690,0:01:29.721
hah, sweet

0:01:29.721,0:01:31.821
that was episode six

0:01:31.821,0:01:34.788
you can check out my snippets on the github repo

0:01:34.788,0:01:36.921
there's a link on my site
