Edit mode key map

Just learning spacemaces and wondering how to best interact with auto completion behavior...

So, below my cursor is the pipe |, if i type def for instance (elixir) then I get a nice

  def | do
  end

So I type my function name and a paren and now I have

  def my_fun(arg|) do
  end

I want now to stay in edit mode and press some key combo that says I am done with the parens so move me past the close paren, and then press it again since I am done with the def header so move me to the body.

Maybe this is a minor mode? Not sure what the edit mode key mappings are generally.

Thanks for any help.

Solution

  • Not sure I understand what is responsible for each behavior but I did learn that yasnippets is what I want for the behavior I described, and then M-/ expand a snippet where TAB moves me through the template cursor positions.
