Re: [O] function for inserting a block

[Xebar Saram]

Hi all

this looks really cool and would love to try. as a non technical user, how does one use the patch to get the functionality? is there a way to create a clean function only version from the patch i can try?

thx!

Right, but based on the code you have, you can easily add "SRC org", "SRC emacs-lisp" to the default value of that list. Looking at that, users can also get an idea that they can add their favorite languages to that list too.

 

I think prompting for
"second-level" information like that might be a little overkill.

I second that. The first-level prompt also feels a bit slow, honestly, compared to using easy templates like "<e". So in my config, I make "<e" (just an example) to insert the, well, EXAMPLE block as usual. But *if region is selected*, it does the wrapping as in your code.

This is what I mean (GIF animation):

I use hydra to provide those awesome hints.. but the same can be done without hydras too. 

As for what should be escaped and what shouldn't, I defer to Nicolas,
let's see what he says.
