I've recently become acquainted with Snippets thanks to giving eTextEditor and InType a try. Although the snippet functionality within these applications is much more powerful than the QuickText plugin provided with Notepad++ - those application just didn't "feel" right.

So, I took some time out tonight to create a snippet file for myself. This doesn't include every library within CodeIgniter - just the ones I use quite often.

If you would like to use these Snippets, copy-paste the text below at the top C:\Program Files\Notepad++\QuickText.ini file:

Code:

cfgitem=\$this->config->item('$')

ci_c=class $ extends Controller {\n\n    function __construct() {\n        parent::Controller();\n    }\n\n    function index() {\n        $\n    }\n\n}

ci_m=class $_m extends Model {\n\n    function __construct() {\n        parent::Model();\n    }\n\n    $\n\n}

I was going to write out documentation for each of the shortcuts but it will take forever. Basically, review the text above - everything on the far left of the equal sign is the keyword, everything on the right is what will replace that keyword when you use the ctrl+enter combination.

I will be creating a PDF that can be printed out as a cheat sheet for these snippets. Once we have that and you spend some time with them and learn them, this should speed up your development significantly.
