Emacs: Haskell snippets for YASnippet
Hi List, this is rather trivial, but maybe someone else finds these useful: darcs get http://code.haskell.org/~daniels/haskell-snippets/ Especially the LANGUAGE ones have saved me quite some typing :) Additions welcome. Usage: If not already installed, get YASnippet: http://code.google.com/p/yasnippet/ and put this into your .emacs: (load-file "some-path/haskell-snippets.el") to expand a snippet, just enter the macro string (these are listed in the haskell-snippets.el file) and press <tab>. If the snippet has holes, press <tab> again to jump to the next hole. Greetings, Daniel

Cool stuff, I will probably be using this! In my opinion, the naming convention is a bit inconsistent. Extension snippets all begin with "-x" but imports begin with "imp". I'd prefer seeing import snippets begin with "-i" and use names easier to remember, e.g. instead of "impcms", use "-istate" and instead of "impdm.Map" use "-imap", etc. At least consider it! :) And about the "bot" -> "⊥" rule... Is ⊥ really valid Haskell? -- Deniz Dogan

Hi Deniz, thanks :)
In my opinion, the naming convention is a bit inconsistent. Extension snippets all begin with "-x" but imports begin with "imp".

Ah, the rationale behind the "-x" was that these are also GHC command line flags ;) But I also like "-i" better than "imp". About the names: In one sense the current scheme is easier to remember because the abbreviation can be deduced from the module name. But I suppose you're right and "state" etc. are still easier to remember in practice, so feel free to send in a patch.
And about the "bot" -> "⊥" rule... Is ⊥ really valid Haskell?
Well yes, but it's an operator name token, so valid haskell would be: x ⊥ y = x + y or (⊥) = undefined with this use as a constant you'd have to use the parentheses every time, so it probably isn't very useful indeed. Greetings, Daniel

Since Emacs already comes bundled with several template systems (at least skeleton.el and tempo.el, where the first seems to be marginally more "canonical"), I think it would be better to define your templates using skeleton and thus remove the dependency on yasnippet. Stefan

You guys sure have been good at hiding skeleton.el... The impression I've gotten from a couple of years in #emacs is that yasnippet is the way to go. I'll translate my own snippets to skeleton a.s.a.p. :P -- Deniz Dogan
