Hello all,
Above, I suggested merging the template insertion function with the current
easy template code.
With that, the easy template behavior will remain unchanged if no region is
selected. But if a region is selected, the same template (example: "<e")
Will wrap that region with that template.
I also have a GIF showing that behavior in action (linked in my previous
reply).
Benefits:
- Quicker as there are no prompts.. the user simply types the template
string as configured by them.
- Also one doesn't need to do a context switch to use a different binding
based on if region is selected or not.
@Eric: I believe you were sort of onboard with this suggestion, just gated
by a doubt if this actually can make into master.
So, checking with Nicolas, and the thread if the proposed behavior change
with easy templates (only when region is selected) would be accepted.
