The AddPaletteEntry command adds a task to a Snippets palette. If the palette does not already exist, it  will be created using the default option values. See DocumentTools[AddPalette] for information on creating a Snippets palette.

The task added to the palette must first be created and saved as a Task Template.

If the optional icon=icon_name parameter is not provided, a default text icon is used.  See DocumentTools[AddIcon] for information on how to create icons for this purpose.

After the task is added to a palette, the associated task template can be inserted into a worksheet by clicking its icon in the palette.

To remove an entry from a palette, use DocumentTools[RemovePaletteEntry].
