org-mode #+END_SRC strange behaviour

[habamax]

I have implemented trivial snippet:

# -*- mode: snippet -*-
# name: org src
# key: src
# --
#+BEGIN_SRC $1
$0
#+END_SRC

After expanding the last C in END_SRC transforms into E.

If I add additional C to it like END_SRCC then it expands normally.

Doesn't happen here. I have the identical Emacs version as you. Did you start from emacs -Q?

From the yasnippet checkout I ran emacs -Q -L . -l yasnippet -f yas-global-mode -f org-mode, then

• C-u M-x yas-new-snippet
• pasted your trivial snippet
• C-c C-l to load it
• C-x b to switch back to *scratch* (which is in org-mode)
• typed src
• hit <tab>
• snippet expanded normally (I typed some garbage into $1):

;; This buffer is for notes you don't want to save, and for Lisp evaluation.
;; If you want to create a file, visit that file with C-x C-f,
;; then enter the text in that file's own buffer.

#+BEGIN_SRC sdad

#+END_SRC

Nope, I didn't.
The line you gave me loads emacs with errors: Cannot open load file: no such file or directory, yasnippet.

If I try emacs -Q then again I am not sure how to load yasnippet. (require 'yasnippet) doesn't work.

But. I have tried your steps with my config and It works! (I have only changed the key to srdc)
So the snippet from the file works strange, the same snippet loaded from buffer works just fine.

The file is named src and is in ~/.emacs.d/snippet/org-mode/ folder.

I have renamed it to src.txt just to be able to upload here:
src.txt

[habamax]

well, if I rename file to code with the same key src everything works.
Then if I rename file to src with the key src -- I get END_SRE.

It should work if you run from the directory where yasnippet is installed, which for you is probably something like ~/.emacs.d/elpa/yasnippet-20160517.1628/

So the snippet from the file works strange, the same snippet loaded from buffer works just fine.

Hmm, I tried with the src file in ~/.emacs.d/snippet/org-mode/ and also ~/src/yasnippet/snippets/org-mode/ but it works fine there too. Maybe you have another snippet in your collection with the same name? What happens if you M-x yas-visit-snippet-file RET org src RET?

well, if I rename file to code with the same key src everything works.

Are you keeping the #name: field the same in this case?

[habamax]

What happens if you M-x yas-visit-snippet-file RET org src RET?

I have 4 org snippets defined: org src, org quote, org verse, org title. All of them works except org src.
Anyway choosing org src I open file src.

Are you keeping the #name: field the same in this case?

Yes

Thanks for pointing out how to run emacs from the yasnippet dir. I get the same result as in first message.

I have run C:\prg\emacs\bin\emacs -Q -L . -l yasnippet -f yas-global-mode -f org-mode
and then just issued src<tab> and got END_SRE.

[habamax]

I don't know if it is windows specific issue or not -- I will check the same on a mac tomorrow.

What I have found so far:

1. if the filename of that snippet starts with a letter s then I get END_SRE
2. any other starting letter of a filename give normal result

I tried filenames source, string, sss -- bad result and ttt, code, wwww -- good result

I'm testing with Windows and not seeing any problem.

I have run C:\prg\emacs\bin\emacs -Q -L . -l yasnippet -f yas-global-mode -f org-mode
and then just issued src<tab> and got END_SRE.

Hmm. Maybe if we add some tracing, can you try emacs -Q -L . -l yasnippet --eval "(mapc 'trace-function '(yas--parse-template yas--templates-for-key-at-point))" -f yas-global-mode -f org-mode, type src<tab> and post the output you get in *trace-output* buffer.

[habamax]

filename: ~/.emacs.d/snippet/org-mode/string

# -*- mode: snippet -*-
# name: org code
# key: code
# --
#ABRACADABRA $1

END SRC

after expand I get END SRE.
If there is something else instead of END or SRC then it is OK...

[habamax]

without expanding I can see immediately in trace-output

======================================================================
1 -> (yas--parse-template "c:/Users/usrusrusr/.emacs.d/snippets/org-mode/src")
1 <- yas--parse-template: ("src" "#BEGIN_SRC $1
$0
#END_SRE" "org src" nil nil nil "c:/Users/usrusrusr/.emacs.d/snippets/org-mode/src" nil nil)
======================================================================

Oh. That is a combination of 2 snippets.

I have deleted 3 other org snippets I have and it works.

Then I add another snippet quote which is basically the same:

# -*- mode: snippet -*-
# name: org quote
# key: quote
# --
#+BEGIN_QUOTE
$0
#+END_QUOTE

and when they are both in org-mode folder, then src is incorrect.

and when they are both in org-mode folder, then src is incorrect.

Aha, yes, I see this too.

[habamax]

Thanks..

I was thinking there is smth wrong either with me or my laptop :)

Reported this as Emacs bug #23659

[habamax]

I have checked it -- fixed.

PS I had to reinstall yasnippet as there was an error after update:

yas--subdirs: Opening directory: no such file or directory,      c:/Users/usrusrusr/.emacs.d/elpa/yasnippet-20160517.1628/snippets/org-mode

PS I had to reinstall yasnippet as there was an error after update:

Ah, because package.el doesn't reload yasnippet.el. Restarting Emacs, or doing M-x load-library RET yasnippet RET should also work. The package.el in the Emacs pretesting versions (latest as of now is 25.0.94) reloads automatically.
