Shortcuts to make writing programs faster.

[syntax_eror]

Hi,

I'm new to Code::Blocks and was wondering if there are shortcuts to make certain actions faster. For example, if my caret is here -

int main(void)|

Can I make it so that when I enter a shortcut it'll automatically enter the brackets and move my caret to the next line. Like so -

int main(void){
    |
}

I know this is possible in Sublime text. I was wondering if I can do it in Code::Blocks.

Here are some other shortcuts that it'd like (see the gif by Alex Cory). - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14800608/sublime-text-2-move-cursor-out-of-parenthesis-quotes-or-brackets

You have two options:
1. try the abbreviations plugin and see if it is enough
2. write squirrel scripts
