Custom Auto ! Complete like Brackets-Completion

Post by Killertitte »

Hello there ..

I'm looking for a new Editor for me. Till now i used Homesite. (Please, sorry for my english)

I tried the Trial - there is the possibility in options to check the automatic completion for Brackets like ( { ... , but that is a little bit.
Is there a way to specify custom auto completion like this? Maybe someone here can help out there to find.

Important:

I do not mean the auto completion feature with shortcuts like ctrl-j / ctrl-space! I need real automatic completion while typing for a small bunch of custom snippets. In HomeSite, there is a great way for this in the settings. But Homesite does not support utf8 :?

For instance: I type <? and the editor automatically writes php | ?> an placed the cursor (green) before the closing ?>
And this directly while writing without shortcut only for my customs in addition to those already contained 'bracking completions'.

Thanks for any help in this regard

MJ

Ok For further infos what i mean please look here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/server_arch ... es_hs.html

the point is to implement a list completely independent from the other shortcut-autocompletes. a small userdefined list, automatic changed by typing ideally with adjustable cursor position.
:idea:

PS: Please sorry for my english - I have no idea whether it sounds unfriendly - :oops:

Your English is excellent and better than many people who speak it as their first language.

As for the auto-complete issue, there is the ability to create your own snippets as well as keyword shortcuts but I'm not sure it is what you are after. You could possibly do it using the auto-replace feature but it isn't exactly what you want.

Put it in as a feature request, the developers are always looking for good ideas to implement in future versions and they might like this enough to do it.

We can offer auto-replace and code snippets, unfortunately there is no feature that works exactly as you described, only similar ones.
