00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:03.067
welcome back to emacs rocks

00:00:03.067 --> 00:00:04.807
it's episode six

00:00:04.807 --> 00:00:07.221
and today we're gonna look at yasnippets

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

00:00:11.167 --> 00:00:14.767
*even more rocking!*

00:00:14.767 --> 00:00:19.567
like TextMate snippets you can expand a mnemonic shortcut

00:00:19.567 --> 00:00:22.362
you also get placeholders

00:00:27.562 --> 00:00:30.567
and like TextMate you can mirror fields

00:00:30.567 --> 00:00:33.367
and even transform them

00:00:33.367 --> 00:00:35.033
check this out

00:00:35.033 --> 00:00:37.100
it strips off the directory

00:00:37.100 --> 00:00:41.148
and even camelCases the var for me

00:00:45.533 --> 00:00:48.067
so, TextMate can do all this

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

00:00:49.900 --> 00:00:52.879
you've got placeholders and stops

00:00:52.879 --> 00:00:55.867
but check out this mirror field

00:00:55.867 --> 00:01:00.100
I've embedded lisp directly into the snippet

00:01:00.100 --> 00:01:02.667
it strips off the directory

00:01:02.667 --> 00:01:04.900
it camel cases

00:01:04.900 --> 00:01:08.940
here, TextMate uses *regular expressions*

00:01:08.940 --> 00:01:11.867
with yasnippets, you get the power

00:01:11.867 --> 00:01:17.333
and the functional fingerlickingly good lispness with your snippets

00:01:17.333 --> 00:01:19.552
nice!

00:01:20.167 --> 00:01:24.290
so let's see that again

00:01:25.690 --> 00:01:29.721
hah, sweet

00:01:29.721 --> 00:01:31.821
that was episode six

00:01:31.821 --> 00:01:34.788
you can check out my snippets on the github repo

00:01:34.788 --> 00:01:36.921
there's a link on my site

00:01:36.921 --> 99:59:59.999
