Skeletons such as python-skeleton-if in python.el has been giving me problems - I never use them but they get invoked unexpectedly. If they are invoked, it is a pain to get out of it and also it messes up my code.

I tried to use python-mode instead of python.el but it seems it gets loaded by other packages (such as lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/python.elc) when I look at load-history and thus whenever I open a .py file python.el is always loaded.

Since the skeletons are my main issue, I was wondering if there is a way to completely disable all the skeletons?

---- Edited ----

It seems like Evil mode is interaction with python.el. Specifically, evil-normal-state after typing if invokes python-skeleton-if.

For example, if I type if and then press ESC, it invokes python-skeleton-if.

In turns out that evil-mode was calling expand-abbrev because expand-abbrev was in evil-insert-state-exit-hook. Having (setq evil-want-abbrev-expand-on-insert-exit nil) before loading evil fixed the issue.

Have you tried:

(setq python-skeleton-autoinsert nil)

?

  • Yes its value is nil already. It actually seems like an issue about python.el and evil mode interacting. I edited my question accordingly.
