Subject: copying text into a paste buffer as you type?
Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2010 05:58:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D09F0EF.5030601@gmail.com> (raw)

is there a way to get emacs to copy text into a paste buffer as you 
type? for example, I would like to type 'null => false' once and be able 
to paste into the other lines

   t.string :title, null => false
   t.string :name, null => false
   t.text :post, null => false

Thanks!
