Whiteboard

The idea is add a variable management into the snippets test:

${varname:index:default_value#function:arg1:arg2:argn}

varname: The variable name
index: The variable index. 1 will be replaced first, 2 second...
default_value: default value for the variable
function: The function name to be applied to the value (upper, lower etc.)
args: Arguments for the function (function date, arg1 the format)

We need think about autovariables (date: inserts the current date without the user interaction, user: inserts the current user, home...)

(?)
