Tab commands in Adobe Brackets? - ide

Sublime has the ability to enter tags when typing the unbracketed word + TAB. Is there any way to recreate this functionality in Brackets? I went through their entire extension list but didn't see anything for this purpose.

What u want is "emmet" extension. It's actually in the extension list.

How to copy from Sublime Text 3 with formatting?

I have XML in Sublime Text 3 and I would like to use it as an example in Google Slides. The issue is when you copy the text you end up with plain text, I would like to keep the syntax highlighting as it makes it much easier to read. Is this possible? Is there some Sublime package I need?
Open the package control to install a package (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + P):
Look for Highlight and click it:
Done! You can now right click some text and copy it as RTF:
Then you can paste that in Google Slides, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, whatever you like.
I use CopyAsHtml pakage. It is better than SublimeHighlight pakage. You can install it according to what MS Berends said above.
CopyAsHtml pakage keeps sublime coloring exactly.
It will add another copy as HTML in your right click as you can see below.

Fold HTML tag attributes feature similar to Sublime Text

One feature I've found really useful in Sublime Text is the ability to fold HTML tag attributes. Is there a way to do this with VSCode that I'm missing?
I don't think there's a built-in way to do this. Also, it seems the extension API currently doesn't have a way of hiding characters, see this open feature request (except for a hack mentioned by the second comment).
Extensions also can't customize the built-in folding yet, see #3422.
To fold individual attributes just move your mouse pointer to the left of the editor, in the empty space on the right of the line numbers. Small - icons will appear. Click on the ones you want to fold items.
Keyboard shortcut is CTRL+SHIFT+].

How to select text between tags in Adobe Brackets?

How to select text between tags in Adobe Brackets like Cmd+Shift+A in Sublime Text?
I believe this command is not done yet. Check out https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Brackets-Shortcuts for available commands & https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Working-with-Multiple-Selections for some selection commands.
You can also goto Help> Suggest a Feature and suggest this. It does sound like a nice feature, would be good to have.

Tool to Surround or Wrap Highlighted Text

StackOverflow's WYSIWYG has the ability to quickly surround highlighted text through keyboard shortcuts.
For example, when I push Ctrl+B on some highlighted text, it would bold the text or surround it with two stars.
I am looking for a tool that will give me this function but with "custom-input". That is... instead of bolding the word, I could surround it with a <div> tag or... in my case, I need to localize my Wordpress Plug-in, thus __("Surrounded Text").
I am currently using Notepad++ but I can't find any way to create this function.
Can this be done in Notepad++?
If it can not, I would like some suggestion for a IDE that can.
Thank you.
If you've never used an "optimized" text editor, Vim would be a sea change, but it does have a great surround.vim plugin.
Emphasize hello: ysiw<em>
<em>Hello</em> world!
Finally, let's try out visual mode.
Press a capital V (for linewise visual
mode) followed by S<p
class="important">.
<p class="important">
<em>Hello</em>> world!
</p>
Alternatively, you could probably get a fair bit of the functionality for which you are looking with an AutoHotkey script, but at best I think you'd have to do the highlight-first thing like the StackOverflow WYSIWYG editor.
Still, this would probably allow you to keep using Notepad++.
You can do this in VIM using the surround plugin

How to Pretty print VBA code?

How do you copy VBA code into a Word document and retain the VBA editor color scheme?
You can use Notepad++ to accomplish this in three ways. Just so you know, Notepad++ is a more advanced version of Notepad, which supports syntax highlighting of different code files "out of the box" - Visual Basic included!
Download & install it, fire it up, and load up your VBA code. You should automatically see it beautifully coloured (if not, because the file extension is something other than .vb, go to Language -> VB or Language -> V -> VB).
If you need to change any of the colours, you can easily do so - just go to Settings -> Styler Configurator. From that menu, you can change the various highlighting and font options, to suit your needs - although the default usually suffices for most.
Then, go to Plugins -> NppExport. From there, you have three options you can consider:
Directly print from Notepad++
Copy all formats to clipboard
Export to RTF
Export to HTML
The first is self explanatory. The second one - "Copy all formats to clipboard" - will copy the entire file with the highlighted syntax to the clipboard. Once you click it, then open Microsoft Word or your other favourite document editor, and just hit paste! You should see the beautifully syntax-highlighted code. If something goes wrong, then you can try one of the other options (export to RTF/HTML), although I've never had a problem with the clipboard method.
There are two programs on cnet downloads, which are free to try. In case you did not try them, here are the links:
VB-VBA Code Formatter & Printer 2.2
VBAcodePrint 6.13.110
Smart Indenter could be what you're looking for? You'd load the result into Notepad++, set language to VB and save as .rtf/.doc (or print to file, can't remember off the top of my head).
For a more modern approach, Sublime Text users can install ExportHTML from Package Control. This has the added benefit of being able to include the line numbers, and changing the code coloration.
HTML files can be opened directly within Word.
Highlight supports a wide range of Operating Systems and 150+ languages including Visual Basic, although I'm not sure about VBA.
I would recommend this one: planetB
It works well with Internet Explorer (didn't work wit Firefox for me, not sure abt Chrome).
Plus it's online, so no need to install anything (the case of Company/University PC's)

The following works with Visual Studio Code:
Start VS Code.
New file.
Copy & Paste the VBA code into the VS Code window.
In the lower right-hand corner, click on "Plain Text" and select "Visual Basic" instead. Note that the code is now syntax-highlighted.
Copy & Paste the formatted code into Word.
