To imitate that screencast, you want to:
1. type doctype⇥ (that's "doctype", then the tab key), then select the
doctype from the list that pops up.
2. go down a bit, and type html ⌃< (that's type "html", then press
ctrl-shift-, if you're on a US keyboard layout)
3. type head⇥ (again "head" + tab key)
4. type the page title, and press ⇥ again
5. etc. etc.
There's no "turning on" you need to do. It's all a combination of
commands and snippets, using tab triggers and regular keyboard shortcuts.
