YASnippet is a template system for Emacs.
It allows you to type an abbreviation and automatically expand it into function templates. Bundled language templates include: C, C++, C#, Perl, Python, Ruby, SQL, LaTeX, HTML, CSS and more. The snippet syntax is inspired from TextMate’s syntax.
Snippet collections can be stored in plain text files. They are arranged by sub-directories naming snippet tables. These mostly name Emacs major mode names.
This is free and open source software.
