  avoid clobbering prefs with each update?
    save your customizations to Settings - User, not Default
    save customizations to Key Bindings - User

snippets ("use them religiously" - jeffrey way)

  all snippets are named <name>.sublime-snippet
  snippets are stored in packages/user
  TIP: save snippets in subdirs by language (packages/user/JavaScript, packages/user/python, etc.)

  Alt+T, S - opens Tools > Snippets > all snippets in sublime text 
  Ctrl+Shift+P, 'snippet' > snippets associated with current file type
  
  as you type, st shows snippets associated with symbols, if any
  once you've selected a snippet, use tab insertion to replace the boilerplate

  Alt+T, new snippet > generates snippet boilerplate:
    
    <snippet>
      <content><![CDATA[
    Hello, ${1:here} is a ${2:snippet}.
    ]]></content>
    	<!-- Optional: Set a tabTrigger to define how to trigger the snippet -->
    	<!-- <tabTrigger>hello</tabTrigger> -->
    	<!-- Optional: Set a scope to limit where the snippet will trigger -->
    	<!-- <scope>source.python</scope> -->
    </snippet>

  This snippet is called by 'iife' and will generate an IIFE and place the cursor inside the function:

    <snippet>
      <content><![CDATA[
    ;(function() {
      ${1}
    }());
    ]]></content>
      <!-- Optional: Set a tabTrigger to define how to trigger the snippet -->
    	<tabTrigger>iife</tabTrigger>
    	<!-- Optional: Set a scope to limit where the snippet will trigger -->
    	<!-- <scope>source.python</scope> -->
    </snippet>

  This snippet is called by 'scriptsrc' (thank you, Jeffrey Way) and will generate a script tag and place the cursor in the src attribute:

    <snippet>
      <content><![CDATA[
    <script src='${1:src_goes_here}'></script>
    ]]></content>
      <!-- Optional: Set a tabTrigger to define how to trigger the snippet -->
      <tabTrigger>scriptsrc</tabTrigger>
    	<!-- Optional: Set a scope to limit where the snippet will trigger -->
    	<!-- <scope>source.python</scope> -->
    </snippet>
