Snippet sub-folders and overrides
My Snippet folder has Visual Basic and Visual C# sub-folders but snippets placed in them don't work. I don't think I created them - are they legacy?
Is it possible to put more than one language in a snippet by manually editing it? Will autocompletion ignore snippets created for a different language?
I thought I remembered I could override existing autocompletion templates with snippets but I can't seem to override foreach?

The language-specific subfolders are supposed to work - I'll get this fixed. They're useful in that they allow you to use the same shortcuts to create different snippets for different languages.
You should be able to override built-in snippets by creating a snippet with the same shortcut. If you've created the snippet manually, ensure that the shortcut defined in the tag matches the name of the snippet.
My override of
foreach
seems to be working now - moving it around (trying the sub-folders)/restarting LINQPad didn't help so I am not sure what made it work.
