Some ways to speed up template creation
Proposed Solution:
Add the following menu items to the context menu of the expansion box.
BlockHighlight: Wraps highlighted text in <<Caret>> and <<BlockAnchor>> commands
FirstField: Wraps highlighted text in <<Caret>><<FieldStart>> and <<FieldEnd>><<BlockAnchor>> commands
LaterField : Wraps highlighted text in <<FieldStart>> and <<FieldEnd>> commands
Maybe you should just enable the selection embedding facilities for the template Expansion box :)
It seems that I'm creating more and more Templates for cool stuff and therefore using the expansion box more and more.
It's a shame that you've enhanced the main IDE but not your own options page.
Many of my recent suggestions have an overlapping theme. If you want to contact me for discussion on any of these, feel free to email at rorybecker@gmail.com which you can also use for voice comms through google talk :)
