how to create the abbrevations or prompts for sas code snippets in batches

It is awesome with code prompts when programming.

Thanks Chris sharing a useful method to create one abbrevation for one snippet.

It takes time to copy code and add abbrevation for each snippet. If I want to create the abbrevations or prompts for all sas code snippets in batches,  how to do?

That's an odd demand. How many abbreviation do you have in mind?

I don't think your idea is possible btw.

sorry for my odd demand, could you offer some suggestions or exmples which can save time to re-use your code quickly rather than opening your code in an editor, copying and pasting them in a tradtional way.

Do you actually intend to copy one user's shortcut settings to another user?

[blueskyxyz]

Yes, does it work to copy user's shortcut settings? copy sth from which folder? copy my shortcut setting from my pc and paste in company pc.

There is another method, a teacher shown it in a training class serveral years ago(sorry, I can't remember now), who imports his sample code into sas, when type a word( which is also in the sample code), then code snippet is displayed, you can pick them in your editor.

This will depend on the user interface being used: Display Manager, Enterprise Guide or SAS Studio.

Sorry, I can't remember what kind of file which is imported in pc sas.
Thanks for your message.
