Keys

A key is the name after //. Letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. Up to 40 characters.

//si

↑↓ navigate · Tab or Enter insert · Esc close

You type the key after //. SlashNijo matches the start of the name, ignoring case. //si can match sig.

Allowed characters

  • Letters, numbers, -, and _.
  • Up to 40 characters.
  • The content cannot be empty or only spaces.
  • Two snippets cannot share a key, even if the case differs. Mail and mail are the same key.

Spaces, : and # are not part of a key. : is reserved for emoji (//:). # is reserved for tags (//#).

Keys that stay easy to type

  • Short, and distinct at the first letters. sig and ship both appear when you type //s.
  • One job per key. mail for an address, hello for a reply, meet for a link.
  • The key is what you type, not a title. The content can be as long as you need.

//hello

Hey, thanks for the note. I’ll send details today.

Typing // with nothing after it lists your snippets. Keep typing to narrow the list.

Write it once. Type // forever.

Install the extension. The same shortcuts work in every tab.
