Read the result

A message at the top of the page says how many snippets came in, and how many were skipped.
SprintBrain reads three kinds of file:
  • A SprintBrain export.
  • A Text Blaze export.
  • A plain list of snippets, each with a name, a trigger (or shortcut) and a body (or snippet, content, text).
What happens on the way in:
  • A snippet with no name, no trigger or no body is skipped.
  • Triggers are cleaned: a leading /, :: or ;; is removed and characters a trigger can’t hold become _.
  • Languages other than EN, IT, ES, FR and Multi become EN.
  • Imported snippets arrive without a folder. Importing the same file twice adds the snippets twice.

Coming from Text Blaze

Text Blaze fields and conditions keep working: {formtext: ...}, {formdate: ...}, {formmenu: ...}, {time: ...}, {if: ...}, {elseif: ...} and {else}. See Fields and Formulas.
