# Programing Feature

# Formatters

Try using formatters by saying e.g. “snake hello world,” which will insert hello_world

Mutliple formatters can be used togther, e.g. “dubstring snake hello world,” which will insert “hello_world”

Once you have the basics of text input down, try copying some code from one window to another.

After that, explore using ordinal repetition for easily repeating a command without pausing (e.g., saying “go up fifth” will go up five lines), window switching (“focus chrome”), and moving around in your text editor of choice.
