  <title>Snippets</title>

  <p><app>Snippets</app> provide a convenient way of inserting repetitive 
  portions of code into your files. For example, an HTML snippet for the 
  <code><![CDATA[<img>]]></code> tag would insert the opening and closing 
  portions of the tag, as well as fixed places where you can enter image 
  attributes. This can make writing code easier and faster.</p>
