I also would like see this feature in EmEditor.

1.) one symbol in snippet to place the cursor

f.ex.
Snippet:

|||

If i insert this snippet i would like to have the cursor in place of the three |||

– – – – – – – – – – – –

2.) another symbol to replace the selected text

f.ex.
Snippet: \%$§$\%

Then i select an word. (or a few lines)
If i insert this snippet i would like to have the selected text enclosed with \%-signs (in this example)

– –
An another example for this feature is
Snippet: $§$

Then i select the word ‘bold’ in this sentence:
This is bold.

And i would get:
This is bold

Would be nice if this would be possible :-D


One note:
please choose an sign as replacement placeholder no one would use ever in his code.
Better use an sign combination no one would use to start an sentence like |#| or ] or )
