Snippets

A snippet is a small container of re-usable code (math, text, regions). Ordinarily, it is intended as an unit to incorporate into larger programming modules.

Snippets in SMath Studio are simple *.sm files that are placed into the special "snippets" folder.

How to use a snippet

Every snippet can be inserted into the page:

using the Dynamic Assistance;

pressing TAB will insert snippet inside the collapsed Area Region
pressing Shift+TAB will insert just all snippet expressions without Area Region

directly from the Snippet Manager of the Tools menu group.

In the Snippet Manager it is possible to download snippets made by other users and shared through the Relase Manager; to do this, change the top-right button target from Local storage to Online gallery.

The snippets downloaded through the Extensions Manager are stored in the user's folder %APPDATA%\SMath\extensions\snippets
