It does not work on CFBuilder.

The cool thing about snippets is that you can have variable
substitutions in them which pops up a dialog with form fields -
including drop-downs and default values - so you can type a few
characters, hit ctl-j, fill out a few form fields and have complete
functions or whatever appear in the editor for you.

As for custom key bindings, Eclipse is a bit of a pain in that area
and whilst you can configure a key binding for any 'action' in
Eclipse, the snippet insertion is a generic action - regardless of the
content of the snippet - and therefore can only have one key bound to
it (as I understand it).
