+## Using Symbols (simple)

+Say you want to expand `hw` into a full hello-world function. Say we're using Rust. You define the snippet:
+
+```
+hw |+| fn hello() {
+%\t%\e
+}
+```
+
+When you trigger the snippet, you'll end up with this:

 ## Why?
 
 I wanted to make a generic snippets plugin that operated on text and worked as I needed. There is an existing snippets plugin already, [Text Snippets](https://github.com/ArianaKhit/text-snippets-obsidian) by ArianaKhit, but not only is the plugin code somewhat outdated and a little complex, it seems to use an older API. (It is a very good plugin by the way.)

 - [ ] A backup for snippets - or a way of specifying snippets in a file, to modularize snippets. May be useful if regex snippets need to be defined separately from text snippets.
-- [ ] Bugfixes and auditing?

 ### Other caveats
 
 - None right now, except that the maintainer of this plugin (me) is inexperienced and may break something. Keep your snippets safe if you write a lot of them.
