Snippets insertion point
Hi!
I am writing a number of snippets to try and automate my editing tasks. I would like to be able to insert a snippet and have the cursor positioned in the correct spot to continue typing. For example, a snippet for a HTML blockquote might look like:

<blockquote>
^
</blockquote>

The "^" symbol is where the cursor sits after the snippet has been added. Some editors use place holders like "/^" to achieve this. Is there such a feature in EmEditor? If this is a well known feature then I apologise for wasting people's time, but I have searched extensively.

If I could also add a supplementary question please; where does EmEditor store the snippets? I have looked in the usual places but nothing stands out.

Regards,
Peter
