John R,

You're missing the point of the templates.  What you are describing is more like library sub-routines.  If you want that, then set up your own set of "include" files that handle just what you're suggesting.  That way, all you need to do is add:

[code]include buttons.sx[/code]

whnever you want to add your code for accessing buttons.  Personally, I doubt that the work involved in setting something like this up would ever really pay off unless you always use the same I/O line in the same way on every project.  

The point of the template feature is to allow the user to have a standard file that comes up whenever they start a new project that [i]can be used for any project they work on[/i].  This means the won't have to type in all the device directives, etc that are [b]common to all projects[/b].  If you write a program to access buttons, then it's either a program or a code example, but it's not a template.
