Existing plugins or projects for Quicktext/Snippets completion in textareas?
Hello,
I'm looking for a jQuery plugin or jQuery based project, that virtually does the same as the Thunderbird plugin Quicktext: You define a template or text phrase (e.g. "Kind regards") and a key (e.g. "kr"). Whenever you enter "kr" followed by a blank, Quicktext replaces "kr" with "Kind regards". This is also usefull for longer boilerplates.
This is different from autocomplete text inputs, it is rather a text replacement in textareas.
I know that FogBugz offers this and calls it Snippets (http://www.fogcreek.com/FogBugz/learnmore.html#hist_Snippets), but I don't want to extract and steal that from a FogBugz demo.
Does an according plugin or project exist? If not, how would you recommend to implement this?
Kind regards - yet without replacement :-)
