1. Introduction
Sick of typing std::cout everytime you want print to console?
- I am.
2. Steps
2.1 [Step 1] Create a file
File suffix is:
- “snippet” (e.g.
cout.snippet)
I used Linux (Ubuntu on WSL):
touch cout.snippet
Windows, not sure how.
2.3 [Step 3] Add the snippet
Visual Studio -> Tools -> Code Snippets Manager -> Import: cout.snippet -> OK
2.4 [Step 4] Test It
In editor:
- Type
cout - Hit
tab - It should output:
std::cout << ;
If you have a problem, ask AI.
2.5 [Step 5] Calculate Profit [Optional]
All those seconds save, over a life-time:
- Tell all your friends and family and
- Pets
- In fact, force your pets to watch you use the snippet.
