A small package for espanso with triggers for headers and code snippets I constantly use in MATLAB

[smeech]

A simple package with one global variable, five triggers and two forms. No shell commands, scripts or malicious code.

A number of problems, however. The CI generates the following errors:

Check: missing_mandatory_files
 ->: expected file 'package.yml' to be present inside package: matlab-snippets, but found none. File should be present in path: packages/matlab-snippets/0.1.0/package.yml

Essentially:

• matlab-snippets.yml needs to be renamed to package.yml
• The tags: items in _manifest.yml need to be separated by commas, not periods.
• Additionally, I suggest removing "v0.1.0", "snippets" & "espanso", and add "math" and any other relevant tags from the examples at https://hub.espanso.org/search, to make the package easier to find there.
• We're having problems with incomplete hub merging of packages whose _manifest.yml doesn't contain a homepage: item - would you kindly add one, even if it just points to https://github.com/MistressOfUniverses/hub/tree/MATLAB-snippets-package, please?
• The forms each contain redundant lines where the text: item refers to a form field [[text]] which isn't present. These can be removed:

    form_fields:
      text:
        multiline: true

• The indentation of the descriptions of the triggers in README.md causes markdown to format them as code, which means the lines don't wrap on-screen, and I think this makes them difficult to read. May I suggest formatting them differently? - have a look at other packages in https://github.com/espanso/hub/tree/main/packages for examples.

I'm sorry there's a bit of work to do before we can merge this package into the Hub but do let me know if I can help further!

Are you likely to make the above changes so we can merge the package, or have you lost interest?

Let me know if you need any help.

Hi, I currently have lost interest as I have been very busy with college. Thanks for asking.

That's quite understandable. Thank you for letting me know.
I'll close this for now rather than keep it hanging, but you're very welcome to come back to it if you feel the urge!

With best wishes. Enjoy your studies!
