IDE autocompletion: "try except" instead of "try finally"

Fibonacci:
I wish I could choose in the IDE to autocomplete the "try" word with "except end" block, not "finally end". Is this perhaps already there and I dont see it? Or maybe I could report it as an idea for a dropdown list that would let you choose whats your preference.

1) try - finally
2) try - except
3) try - except - finally

EDIT WHILE STILL WRITING THIS. I found a solution :D So NVM!

Use Code Templates.

If anyone is interested the template is here:

--- Code: Pascal [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---try try $Param() except $Param() end$AddSemicolon()finally $Param()end$AddSemicolon()
Use it in Tools -> Code Templates, also assign a hotkey in Tools -> Options -> Key Mappings

Bonus template:

--- Code: Pascal [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---$Param(VarName) := $Param(TMyClassName).Create;try try $Param() except $Param() end$AddSemicolon()finally $Param(VarName,Sync=1).Free;end$AddSemicolon()

It's very strange. In my IDE, these are tryf and trye.

Fibonacci:
Yes, but there is no try-except-finally ;D Two in one. I added "tryef".

I usually only use try finally. Try except, including nested - a rarity.
