Atom Editor: snippets

# 
# How to write atom snippets.
#
# Docs:
# https://atom.io/packages/snippets
# 
# Find your source file name key that atom uses:
#
#
# 1. Put your cursor in a file in which you want the snippet to be available.
#
# 2. Open the Command Palette (cmd + shift + p), and run the Editor: Log Cursor Scope command.
#
# 3. This will trigger a notification which will contain a list of scopes.
#    The first scope that's listed is the scope for that language.
#    Here are some examples: source.coffee, text.plain, text.html.basic.
# 
# # GNU/Linux
# Edit > Open Your Snippets menu option
# 
# # Windows 
# File > Open Your Snippets menu option
# 
# # OSX
# Atom > Snippets... 
# 
# Snippets files are stored in a package's `snippets/` folder and also loaded from `~/.atom/snippets.cson`

        $2
      } else if (${3:false}) {

      } else {
        $5
      }
    """

# Including a literal closing brace inside the text provided by a snippet's 
# tab stop will close that tab stop early. To prevent that, escape the brace
# with two backslashes, like so:
'.source.js':
  'function':
    'prefix': 'funct'
    'body': """
      ${1:function () {
        statements;
      \\}
      this line is also included in the snippet tab;
      }
      """
    
# When you write your actual snippets file you need to put the
# snippets for the same scope under one key:
  
# Snippets for the same scope must be placed within the same key.
# See this section of the Atom Flight Manual for more information.
