Have ":" trigger a code template for hash entry (as textmate does). That is it would create ":<variable> => "<value>"". After you fill in the variable and tab to value the enclosing " would be included after which you can (a) start typing or (b) tab again and then the select drops just into the value area without encompassing the surrounding ". Would be then good (if possible) that another tab entry would take you to a point wiht a ":" from which you could tab a second time if you want to create a 2nd hash entry (If you know what I mean).
This is fixed as of yesterday; let me know whether it works the way you expect.
Tor - almost working. Only issue is that after entering the key, then value, then hitting TAB it: a) seems to highlight a few characters including the "," such that when you want to enter a ":" and then press TAB for a 2nd hash item it doesn't work b) also if I manually place the cursor after the "," enter ":" (but noting that the highlighted area still incorporates the ",") and then press TAB it still doesn't seem to work. Tks Greg
It still doesn't work. I agree with what callagga says.
