How do I avoid typing "android" for every attribute?

android, attributes, autocomplete, eclipse

Solution

Just begin typing the second part of the keyword (what follows after `android:` and by pressing Ctrl + Space, Eclipse will insert the desired keyword for you prefixed with `android:`.

Problem

I am new to Android development and am also a designer doubling as a front-end guy. How can I avoid having to type `android:` every time I add an attribute? In other text editors (TextMate), I can trigger snippets by typing a known trigger and tab to auto-complete the word. Is there something similar for Eclipse?
