Hi. I have the following TM snippet (scope = source.php, tab trigger = eoq):

<<<EOQ ${0} EOQ;

My snippet works fine, except: the trailing EOQ needs to always be placed at the beginning of a line. Currently, the trailing EOQ winds up at the same indent position as the beginning "<<EOQ".

Does someone know of a way to move the caret to the beginning of a line within a snippet? [...]

You can have it inserted without the snippet being indented to the current level, the following trick works for tmSnippet files as well: http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-March/ 018523.html

Thanks for the quick reply, Allan (and sorry for my replying previously without a subject; I am new to the list and this was my first posting).

I tried it, but I must not be putting the disableOutputAutoIndent key in the correct place (I tried several). Below is the contents of my snippet's plist file. Where would I place the disableOutputAutoIndent key code below?

<key>disableOutputAutoIndent</key> <true/>
