Wrap Selection Snippet on Visual Studio Code (vscode)

Question

I want to create an snippet when triggered it will surround the given text. Currently my snippet is:

{ 
  \"Function Creator Helper\": {
    \"prefix\": \"_w         


        

Answer 1

from Mitches example:

"JS Block Quote": {
    "prefix": "c2",
    "body": [
        "/* $TM_SELECTED_TEXT */",
    ],
    "description": "JS Block Quote" }

from the article: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/userdefinedsnippets#_variables the docs must have been ahead of the release.

This works fine in vscode v1.30.2
