Gedit Snippets for CodeIgnitor

I have been using the E-text editor Codignitor bundle from sellersrank for some time now. But the E-text editor is windows only and Textmate is mac only. But they both use same XML bundle format which have a big advantage.

Bundles are like templates with tab stops in them. Also it is possible to call external programs to fill in data dynamically. This improves development speed considerable.

On Linux you have Gedit and the snippets plugin which replicates the same behaviour. Off course this snippets plugin uses a different XML structure. So I wrote a small perl script that parsed the bundle CI XML’s and reworked them into a XML format used by Gedit snippets.

I did not have time to test the external calls to see if they work on linux.

Download the GEDIT CodeIgnitor snippets.

Instructions: Copy the file to ~/.gnome2/gedit/snippets

    could you perhaps share the conversion script, so that other TM bundles could be set free?

    thanks,

    which version of CI do these snippets support?
