I'm a non-technical user= , and I've never used ysnippets, but I'm willing to give it a go wi= th some proper instruction.

I do see the argument of both side= s.

Here is a question: I see specialised snippet packages in t= he ELPA respositories. Is it possible to provide snippets that reproduce th= e existing "Easy Templates", maybe even keep the same key binding= s so that the change is transparent to the users that are likely to have th= e troubles referred to by Bastien?

It is a genuine question si= nce I have no idea of the problems involved.

I'll keep usi= ng org no matter what you decide!

Hi all,

I normally= am all for adapting to changes, staying on bleeding edges of emacs, Org, e= tc.

But FWIW, for this particular change to the "<s&qu= ot; Easy Templates, I'm in the camp of "It was working awesome, it= was beautiful! Why change it?". For record, I understand the "wh= y", but it just doesn't seem worth it in this case.

B= ut the good thing is that this is open source, and you can backport the stu= ff you like from the original Easy Template code into your personal Emacs c= onfig (and then later adapt to the new way of doing the similar when you ha= ve time and motivation).
