Language-specific aliases are similar to
directory aliases except they can be used in edit windows for any frequently used text, like comment headers and language structures.
To create a language-specific alias, from the main menu, click
Tools > Options > Languages, expand your language category and language, then select
Aliases. On the Alias option page, click
New and enter a short text snippet that you can easily remember for the alias name, then click
OK. Back on the Options dialog, select the new alias, then enter the text substitution for the alias in the text box on the right. Click
OK on the Options dialog.
Now when you have a buffer or file open in that language, you can use the alias by typing the identifier and pressing
Ctrl+Space.
