Re: how to insert a source template

["Eric Schulte" <schulte.eric@gmail.com>]

Hi Petro,

You can use yasnippet to expand keywords into templates (like code
blocks) with TAB, see the following for instructions on using yasnippet
with Org-mode [1].

Alternately you could add the following elisp code to your config, and
bind the `org-insert-block' function to a comfortable key combination.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun org-insert-block (lang)
    (interactive "Mlanguage: ")
    (insert (format "#+begin_src %s\n  \n#+end_src" lang))
    (goto-char (- (point) 10)))
#+end_src

Cheers -- Eric
