I have a feeling you're correct, Rob. That's why I've gone with the separate grammar file. daniel, yes. I have that implemented as a snippet, though I use /** for the tab trigger. -dave <div> On 10/31/06, Rob McBroom <<a href="mailto:textmate@skurfer.com">textmate@skurfer.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Oct 31, 2006, at 3:08 PM, Daniel Stockman wrote: >> I'm trying to make some changes to the Language without losing the >> ability to get updates (to the language). > > As described in the manual, your changes to the default bundles > will be > saved as a tmDelta (a diff file, basically) in ~/Library/Application\ > Support/TextMate/Bundles, and won't affect the ability to update the > bundle in future versions. This works for Snippets and things, but I'm not sure if it works for the Language grammars themselves. I had a similar question in August and Allan said: > As for the delta files: these do not have the granularity of > storing only changes to single rules, as that can't be merged > without potential conflicts when the default grammar is updated. Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I've taken to trashing my delta for the PHP grammar and re-doing my customizations each time I suspect it might have been updated. Obviously, I would like someone to tell me I'm wrong here. :) Rob ______________________________________________________________________ For new threads USE THIS: <a href="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com"> textmate@lists.macromates.com</a> (threading gets destroyed and the universe will collapse if you don't) <a href="http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate">http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate </a> </blockquote></div>
