How do i use codeanywhere snippets

Question

How do i use code anywhere snippets? I have entered a snippets but i am not sure how the "name" or tab "trigger" is used. I have entered "parseget" as name, 1 as tab trigger (because I was not sure how it was used).

I have searched the web and read the very short doc on codeanywhere. I have also have even put in a support ticket with no reply (maybe because I have a free account).

Is anyone familiar with using snippets on codeanywhere?

Thanks

updating link as the above is now 404.

https://docs.codeanywhere.com/#snippets

doesnt really explain it though, the tabtrigger input box defines the snippet you want to use, for example if you enter newclass and then just type newclass in your file and press enter you will get your snippet.

does seem to support tabbing though variable names though unfortunately.

also doesnt matter if you have a free account or paid account, CA are the worst at replying to tickets or even acknowledging you exist. took me 2 months to get a reply to a ticket once and it wasnt even a solution.

I also put in a support request (having had exactly the same issue!) and the docs on snippets have now been updated- see http://docs.codeanywhere.com/preferences/snippets.html
