Afae is Another Freebooter's All-purpose Editor. It is a group of plugins for Eclipse that do the following:
* Syntax highlighting for many types of files (Ruby, Assembly, C, Objective-C, Javascript, bash, config files, pretty much any language you can think of (some better than others of course))
* Keystroke comments
* Shows Whitespace
* An image viewer. For gif, jpg, ico, and png
* A while-you-edit XML DTD and Schema validator (with several DTDs and Schemas built in)
* Snippets with trigger text for frequently used bits.

Set it to something ( I use Alt + Shift + / ), and then whenever you're in the Afae editor, just type the snippet trigger (like "xml") to have it fill out the snippet for you.
Check and change snippet triggers in the "Snippets" tab of the Afae perspective.

I've been so far completely unable to cause a snippet to expand by using trigger text, and there is no indication on the site or in the files as to how that is done (hotkeys or whatever is required.)
Also, the snippets are stored as XML, which is good, but if your snippet contains anything like a cdata tag, well, you pretty much break all the snippets.
