    Also, I'm using vim-snipmate style snippets in LuaSnip. How can I import snippets in javascript.snippets in html.snippetswithout having to copy everything.
  • Can anybody give me some review of coq_nvim :>
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 3 Dec 2022
    cmp works fine and I was able to trivially make it only suggest lsp completion for me by only including lsp sources. The setup is significantly more complicated with having the install 7ish plugins instead of just 3 for coq. I don't think I would've had the patient to go through the setup when I was just starting to use neovim. cmp also have much nicer UI (e.g. it shoulds documentation and sometimes function signiture as you browse through the suggestion.) With snippet you can find something like https://github.com/honza/vim-snippets which have more than what I need. You also need to choose a snippet engine so that's more decision to make.

  • Is There a Snippet Collection for LuaSnip?
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 29 Apr 2022
    Since LuaSnip also supports snipmate I'm using vim-snippets since it's offering a lot of snippets I'm using often without having to write my own. But as @eliizaak said: it's not Lua and perhaps I'll find the time and energy to learn a bit more about LuaSnip and write my own snippets ... ;)

  • Do Vim Snippets work in Obsidian?
    2 projects | /r/ObsidianMD | 24 Oct 2021
    Skimming over the blog post you linked, it appears that the author uses Vim plugins to get some of the snippets working, which I'm near-certain is impossible with the Vim features available to Obsidian. I don't think installing Vim plugins with vim-plug (as used by both myself and the author of the linked blog) is possible in Obsidian, for example. Without some way to manage installing Vim plugins, you won't be able to get plugins which enable vim snippets as used in the blog post.

  • How to automatically include C headers in vim?
    2 projects | /r/C_Programming | 29 Jul 2021
    Auto adding include files or a specific non-static function is generally a bad idea, but I use yasnippet on Emacs for copyright/licensing info, this seemingly has the same purpose but oriented towards vim users, which makes file templates trivial (on Emacs at least, I don’t usually use vim unless I can’t use Emacs or mg for some reason).
