Yes, you just combine skeletons with abbrev. I like to type "ifx " to expand my template in C mode: (define-skeleton my-skeleton-c-if "Insert a c if statement" nil "if (" > _ ")" \n "{" '(indent-for-tab-command) \n \n "}" '(indent-for-tab-command)) (define-abbrev c-mode-abbrev-table "ifx" "" 'my-skeleton-c-if) > * "Intellisense".

Another option is xref (http://www.xref.sk/), which is commercial, $29 I think, and works for C and Java. In addition, the JDE works great for java. > * Dynamic Tagging.
