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:

Snippet Manager

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
