* Description
This module adds file templates for blank files, powered by yasnippet.
** Module Flags
This module provides no flags.
** Plugins
This module installs no plugins.
* Prerequisites
This module has no prerequisites.
* Usage
File templates are automatically expanded when opening empty files.
They are also regular yasnippet snippets, which can be expanded by typing their
trigger and pressing =TAB=. By convention, the triggers for file templates are
prefixed with two underscores ~__~.
** Inserting OSS licenses
A special command is available for inserting software licenses: ~M-x
+file-templates/insert-license~.
#+begin_quote
Licenses with a ~-bp~ suffix are boilerplate templates; shorter versions meant
for comment headers in code.
#+end_quote
* Configuration
** TODO Registering a new file template
** TODO Changing existing file templates
** Adding new OSS licenses
The ~+file-templates/insert-license~ command searches for snippets under
~text-mode~ that are named ~__license-ABC~, where ABC is the short name of the
license. e.g. ~__license-mit~.
So long as these files exist, ~+file-templates/insert-license~ will recognize
them.
* Troubleshooting
If a file template isn't expanding where you expect it to, run ~M-x
+file-templates/debug~. This will report to you what file template rule would
apply for the correct file.
