Is there a compelling reason to use cmd-opt-arrows for tab shifting?
Safari uses Cmd-Shift-Arrow...if there's no reason to stay with the
current setting, I request that TextMate match Safari.

Hi,
Is it possible to do a "columnar selection" with the keyboard only?
Hold Alt while moving the cursor would be the logical shortcut for
such a thing I think (it doesn't seem to be used for other things?).
I don't use the tabs (ie. they're hidden) whenever I have a project
open (in the project drawer), is it possible to navigate up/down in
the projectdrawer with the keyboard?

Does anyone know if there is any way to manually define what TM considers to
be a "word" when double-clicking to select? At the moment a dollar sign does
not seem to be part of what TM thinks is a word, and I use these to prefix
variable names. I seem to remember that within S-E-E there is some way of
defining which characters are legit for variable names or something, is such
a thing planned for TM?
Regards
Chris Jenkins

I really liked when folder names were bold in one of the past betas.
Do other people share my point of view ?
Setting this with a preference, should this require to go to the
terminal and type some "defaults..." thing, would be great.

Allan, I know you made the change to call bash sub-shells with
'--login' in response to people's problems getting their PATHs set
straight, but I'd like to make an argument towards putting it back the
way it was.
Philosophically, it's just not how things are supposed to work with
bash. The reason .bash_profile is only called on a login shell,
.bashrc is only called on an interactive non-login shell, and BASH_ENV
is consulted for non-interactive shells is so that you can separate
initialization code for these very different conditions.
Practically, since, by default, .bash_profile is only called on a
login shell, people use it to put initialization code that should only
be run when they log in ... knowing that that's the only time it will
run. For example, people output stuff to the screen, they mess with
their stty settings to get their keyboard working correctly, etc.
People don't typically protect any of that stuff in if statements so
that it only runs if there is a tty because ... there should always be
one in a login shell.
By changing TextMate to use a login shell, it now executes all that
cruft in the subshell. Every time I run a command it now inserts into
the TextMate buffer all this extra stuff from my .bash_profile that
I've sent to the screen, and errors from my trying to run stty without
a tty. To combat that, I'm going to have to go through my
.bash_profile and surround any of that kind of code with if statements
that test if there is a tty or not.
So, in trying to make things easier for people (not having to set
BASH_ENV in their enviroment) I think this is going to wind up making
it harder for people (having to escape code with if statements all
through their .bash_profile). I would bet that you'll start to see a
lot of problems come in related to this.
What are your thoughts? Any chance I can convince you to change your
mind on this?
Thanks much.
this is a separate note but related to Dominique's message on orphaned
wiki pages ...
I have twice posted a link to a bundle containing snippets for creating
PHP Documentor tags in PHP scripts ... but both times the link has been
wiped out. Now the wiki seems to have been reorganized so I am
hesitant to repost. Should we have a new page for snippet-related
bundles? I'm not sure if maybe people are wiping out my entry because
it is not a syntax highlighter bundle.
The link is still available here btw :

Sorry, but I kinda liked being able to use Cmd-P for my own purposes :-)
Is there a way to disable that shortcut (using the current beta)?

Two things I miss from BB:
a) Opening/saving directly by FTP/SFTP (not going through Transmit,
Interarchy, etc)
b) "show invisibles"!!! I know this has been asked for already... I
just wasted 10 mins on a file where 2 spaces were emulating a tab;
partly my fault (confused about Tab Emulation) but show invisibles
would be great...
Otherwise I'm loving it. The recent HTML-PHP syntax coloring seems
better, or is that my imagination :) I found myself running MySQL
queries directly in TM... cool! Just think of the possibilities with a
macro :)

Hi Kumar,
I re-posted your link to the wiki. If it disappears, I'll help you
restore it. I suspect it was deleted out of clumsiness and not any
secret standards for what should be on the front page. I think the
nature of a wiki is that all the users have to evolve standards for
how things should be organized and how people should edit. I
personally think nothing should ever be deleted. At worst, it should
be put in a separate link or 'refactored' by being summarized.
I did the last reorganization because (1) most of the front page was
obsolete due to Allan's including them in the distribution and (2)
someone had incompetently edited the front page to nuke most of the
writing people did. It's possible that in restoring the old writing
I accidentally lost some post-nuking changes you made (but I did try
to check).
best wishes, Eric

I just joined so I apologize if this is a recurring subject, but I would
like to see TextMate become ODB protocol compliant. Specifically, I work
with a few other programs like MarsEdit which allow editing of the text
in programs like BBEdit or SubEthaEdit. I have talked with a few of the
designers including Brett and for TextMate to also be included it needs
to include the ODB protocol. Is this possible for a future release?
Thanks
Robert
