The only feature that would get me using this is if there was some way to synchronise between different machines. It's perfect if you use only one laptop, but I use three different machines and I would find it irritating to have a snippet I needed on a different computer.

Kudos to the developers though, it's definitely a great start!


I'm in the final round of alpha testing of an application that will do just that. Stay tuned...


I was thinking about doing something like this, but web based with code shared, so users can search for code that others have saved. I don't know if it's still worth it...


There are quite a few Web based ones already. One example: http://snippets.dzone.com/

Of course, a combo between a Web based one AND a desktop app.. that would be reasonably original.


At first glance, this seems far better than grepping my home directory for random code strings I need to dig up...
