There are several such things. They need some work to make them more comfortable though: 1. You can add code templates (Ctrl-j). For example for the method start go to Tools / Code templates, then add a new one, give it a name, e.g. 'pb' and a description 'procedure begin', click "enable macros" And as source: {$IFDEF LOGPROCESSFLOW}Log('Entering $ProcedureName()');{$ENDIF} Click ok to save and close dialog. Move cursor behind the "begin" and type pb and Ctrl+j. 2. I wrote a small command line utility for Graeme that can add/remove code to starts/ends of procedures. He needed it for profiling. The tool is here: components/codetools/examples/addfpprofcalls.lpi It is merely a demo, but maybe someone wants to write a dialog and/or IDE package. 3. Donald Ziesig added templates to the IDE to configure some parts of class completion. You can try it by compiling Lazarus with -dEnableCodeCompleteTemplates. Then you should see new options on the code creation page. I had not the time yet to finish it.
