PrimalScript^® Snippets Packs

PrimalScript Snippets help you code faster by making dozens of prewritten code segments available at the touch of a button. Simply type a Snippet's name and press Ctrl+J, or drag it into your script from PrimalScript's built-in Snippets browser, and you're coding faster than ever before. Snippets often help perform common or complicated tasks quicker and with less debugging, or put less frequently-used tasks right at your fingertips when you need them.

What are Snippets? They're not usually fully-functional scripts. Instead, they're functional *pieces* of script, which perform some common, useful task. Most scripters write code for the first time after laboriously rifling through the documentation and any examples they can find.

The second time they need that same code, they go back to their prior work and copy and paste it. Snippets simply provide a way for that "prior work" to live in a convenient, readily-accessible place. By purchasing a Snippets Pack, you won't have to *have* that prior work to refer to - much fo the functionality you'll need is performed by these ready-to-use pieces of code.

Snippets are generally equipped with <>, which tell you where to type in the information relavent to your script. That makes them not only easy to use, but also somewhat self-documenting, so that you can see what they're doing and how they fit into your scripts.

VBScript to PowerShell Conversion Snippets

Already know VBScript but just getting started with Windows PowerShell? These are the Snippets for you: They add right into SAPIEN PrimalScript, and let you type any VBScript function or statement name, press Ctrl+J, and see how that VBScript feature is performed in PowerShell! Or, just drag the snippets into your PowerShell script for a quick, concise guide to using that VBScript feature in PowerShell. Includes 119 snippets, and also helps alert you to VBScript features which are not available in PowerShell.

 

 

NOTE: Snippets can be used with script editors as well as with PrimalScript (3.0 or later). If you're not using PrimalScript, simply open the ".snippet" files as text files.
