Are you running Vim in a terminal? ^S is special in Unix terminals; by
default it sends a signal that you'd like terminal output to stop
temporarily (to be resumed when you press ^Q). If running in a terminal,
you need to run

stty -ixon

(e.g. in your .bashrc) to make the terminal treat ^S like any other
control-key combination.

OTOH, if you're running gVim, that shouldn't be an issue in the first
place.

I see that the documentation does say to use that, but I think you might
have to put g: before snippet_use_global=1.
