If your familiar with visual studio you can select code snippets from the auto complete list. is this possible in IntelliJ

So for example if i type

for

it would show "for" and the live template "fori" in the code complete dropdown list

Turns out it is possible (unless I'm missing something) via the Registry editor:

Registry Screen Capture

See this answer on how to get to this editor.

    Awesome find. this will be very helpful. i confirmed that it works. Go to Help > Find Action > tick "Include non-menu actions" > search for Registry> enable the option shown in the image above – Ryan Burnham Aug 25 '12 at 10:56

    That is a great find indeed, even I was not aware of this option in the registry :) – CrazyCoder Aug 25 '12 at 18:11
