Great idea! It's a shame it's only available for Eclipse. I would definitely make use of this if it were available as an operating system level plugin for OS X, a la TextExpander.
Thanks! Xcode and MSVS plugins are in progress. Should be available this fall. This is just the first release :)
Feel free to contact me if you need any help / info on VS integration, mail in profile. I don't work on the editor team, which is probably where the bulk of your work will be, but I know some people there so I can point in the general direction.
Thank you! We could definitely use help.
Is IntelliJ on the road map?
IntelliJ already has shared template libraries, along with in-place choice / definition of the variables. What it doesnt have is the search. I'm betting that gets added shortly.
... and TextMate s'il vous plaît
sublimeText?
Yeah, I was excited until I saw it was for Eclipse.
