   Depends. For simple expansions, I prefer abbrev. Think: pub -> public,  
   pro -> protected, pri -> private, etc.

   For more complex templates, I use yasnippet. For example, new file  
   templates (where it's lisp evaluation is handy), class and function  
   templates with docblocks, etc. I use it to reduce the repetitious  
   parts of programming, and let me focus on getting things done.

Thank you for your feedback, it will help.
