    Hello, this is a revised script based on the one discussed at Snippets with macro. It auto-completes a block using a template for each flow control construct. Maybe it will be useful for others.

    Also, can anyone can tell me why that parseInt() appears to be necessary? (if I just pass i itself, an empty template is used)

    autoblock.js

    Code: Select all

    // index must match template number
templates = []
templates[0] = 'if'
templates[1] = 'else'
templates[2] = 'elif'
templates[3] = 'for'
templates[4] = 'while'
templates[5] = 'do'
templates[6] = 'switch'

function autoblock()
{
    doc = UltraEdit.activeDocument;
    
    col = doc.currentColumnNum;
    if (typeof(UltraEdit.activeDocumentIdx) == "undefined") col++;
    line = doc.currentLineNum;
    
    doc.key('LEFT ARROW');
    doc.selectWord();
    
    keyword = doc.selection;
    
    for(i in templates)
    {
        if(keyword == templates[i])
        {
            doc.key('DEL');
            doc.gotoLineSelect(0, 1);
            doc.insertTemplate(parseInt(i));
            return;
        }
    }
    
    doc.gotoLine(line, col);
    UltraEdit.messageBox('No Match!');
}

      How do you hotkey a script to make the autoblocks work? Can you set it to control-space?
