That has a slight problem when your line does begin with "non word"
chars (i.e: - _ ....)

I have a "smart home" command bound to the "Home" key. Repeated
presses get you to the "smart" home and the "real" home.

Input: Selected Text or Line
Output: Insert as Snippet

#!/usr/bin/ruby
line   = ENV['TM_CURRENT_LINE']
index  = ENV['TM_LINE_INDEX'].to_i

# extract leading whitespace
remain = line.sub(/(^\s*)/, '')
whitespace = $1

if index == whitespace.size
 whitespace = ''
else
 line = remain
end

# Escape anything in the line that might be mistaken
# as a snippet token.
line = line.gsub(/([\$\\`])/){"\\#$1"}

# place cursor
print "#{whitespace}${1}#{line}"
