description

The bulk of this file consists of maps and insert mode abbreviations that output php function and control structure stubs.  Each item begins with a heading similar to       PHP: function definition Function definitions where copied from the php manual.  To see a complete list if items grep on PHP:       grep "\"  PHP: " php.vim A good overview can also be seen by setting the foldmethod=marker. Each item should have an insert mode abbreviations prefixed by php. The print() function, for instance, has this abbreviation:  phpprint.  In addition to the full name of the function prefixed with php, I have usually also attempted to create an reasonable shortened version.  For print() this shortened version is phpp.  When it makes sense, abbreviations with the php prefix have additional output, such as a preceeding variable to make an expression and a semicolon to end the statement. When it makes sense, items will also have a normal and visual mode map.  For the print() function there are maps that will open up a new line and insert a print statement inclosing the variable name under the cursor when the map was executed.  Generally, the map should correspond to the shortened abbreviation prefixed by <leader>. The definition of each map should be broken up with <esc>a to avoid the double expansion of the item when non-prefix abbreviations are being used. Finally, for each item there should be a disabled abbreviation without any prefix.  When enabled these abbreviations (expanded by the space bar) complete the function syntax.  Typing print would output print(""); and leave the cursor between the quotation marks.  Not everyone is going to want these abbreviations so they are disabled.  To enable them execute this substitution command:       :%s/\("no-prefix: \)\(.*\)/\2 \1/gc To put the abbreviations back after they have been removed execute:       :%s/\(.*\) \("no-prefix:\)/\2 \1/gc These abbreviations have also been gathered together in a separate file to be sourced at will if you don't want them permanently on.  The abbreviation without prefixes can really make things interesting if you can get used to it... Many of the function stubs require data entry in more than one location. For instance the implode function requires two parameters.  The <c-x>, <F7> and <leader>x maps are an attempt to help with this situation.  A placeholder (php~x) is inserted in positions 2..n of the function that require data entry.  The <c-x>, <F7> and <leader>x maps can then be used to advance to and replace these placeholders.  If this is too ugly for you or you just don't like the technique you can delete all the placeholders with:       :%s/php\~x//g The maps and abbreviations have been grouped into these sections:       - php functions       - php language constructs       - php predefined variables       - misc php stuff       - PEAR code snippets       - miscellaneous maps search for "Section:" to jump around. set fdm=marker for the folded version
