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

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.
