# SnipMate #
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SnipMate aims to provide support for textual snippets, similar to TextMate or
|
||
|
|
other Vim plugins like [UltiSnips][ultisnips]. For
|
||
|
|
example, in C, typing `for<tab>` could be expanded to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
|
||
|
|
/* code */
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
with successive presses of tab jumping around the snippet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Originally authored by [Michael Sanders][msanders], SnipMate was forked in 2011
|
||
|
|
after a stagnation in development. This fork is currently maintained by [Rok
|
||
|
|
Garbas][garbas], [Marc Weber][marcweber], and [Adnan Zafar][ajzafar].

## Installing SnipMate ##
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SnipMate depends on [vim-addon-mw-utils][mw-utils] and [tlib][tlib]. We
|
||
|
|
recommend one of the following ways of installing all three.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Using [Pathogen][pathogen], run the following commands:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
% cd ~/.vim/bundle
|
||
|
|
% git clone https://github.com/tomtom/tlib_vim.git
|
||
|
|
% git clone https://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-mw-utils.git
|
||
|
|
% git clone https://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate.git
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Using [VAM][vam], add `vim-snippets` to the list of packages to be installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Using [Vundle][vundle], add the following to your `vimrc` then run
|
||
|
|
`:BundleInstall`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bundle "MarcWeber/vim-addon-mw-utils"
|
||
|
|
Bundle "tomtom/tlib_vim"
|
||
|
|
Bundle "garbas/vim-snipmate"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lastly, since SnipMate does not ship with any snippets, we suggest looking at
|
||
|
|
the [vim-snippets][vim-snippets] repository.
