To start a new *.module file, open the empty file and type newmod. This will create the necessary module structure.

Similarly, other files can be scaffolded:

• newinc: Start a new inc file.
• newinstall: Scaffold an install file
• newinfo: Start a new info file (only works if the extension is .info).

Hooks:

All core Drupal 7 hook are provided in this package.

• Type hook_HOOKNAME*<tab>* for annotated snippets. These often contain additional data structures (like menu items).

Utilities:
