As a follow on to my discussions of Mickey’s posts about Hippie Expand and abbrev, Mohammed Sadiq has a post on his Crazy Mode project. It’s another completion framework that is aimed at providing efficient shortcuts when you’re coding.
Take a look at the Sadiq’s post for some examples. Again, these are substitutions that happen automatically so, if you’re like me, you might not embrace the package but if you don’t mind your editor making changes to your input automatically, it looks like it could be a really useful addition to your toolkit.
Currently, crazy mode is mostly useful for C and C-like languages so it’s not universally applicable but if you write in one of those languages, it should help make your coding a bit more efficient.
