Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how one might use
Textmate to interface with Matlab? I can have a command execute a given
.m file, but Matlab is a much heavier process to load than perl is from
the command line, so that becomes a very unattractive option.
Ideally I'd like to have Matlab running in a terminal (the java
interface is just too slow for me), and edit with Textmate in such a
way that commands could reach the already loaded session.
cheers,
-don

With the recent introduction of Apple's Pages software I have been
reading a slew of reviews that point out it's short-comings however
this has also prompted people to write in solutions for them. I have
discovered some very nice services (that will of course work in
Textmate as well) so I wanted to start a discussion on what services do
you use (perhaps not use do to stability issues) and can not live
without.
Here is one that I think I will be using quite often:

I realized after seeing a HyperEdit screenshot that having a floating
snippets palette would be immensely useful in TextMate.
I've mocked up how I might think you could implement this, focusing the
selected snippets on the current editing mode... In any case, I don't
think that snippets belong in a hierarchical menu, and as much as I
would like for you to be able to stick to minimal modal interfaces, I
think that in this case, it's worth adding one more.

A while back, early December I think, I read that there was going to be
work on allowing TextMate to 'preview' text being givin to it by the
system. I am still frustrated with changing inputs (e.g., greek) as well
as not being able to use input engines like "Spell Checker". Ant
estimate on this bug fix?
Thanks

I was noticing that if I right click in the project drawer a file will
give me an option to reveal or open in the finder. Is there a way to
add to this list so that I can open in photoshop? Another thing I would
most likely do is add a reveal in pathfinder as I do not use the finder
much.
Thanks,
Eric
I was recently working with folding and noticed a dangerous behavior
that I would like see changed if possible. I was working on an html
document with the setup something like:
<div id="section_1">...
(dangerous place to backspace)
<div id="section_2">...
(dangerous place to backspace)
<div id="section_3">...
(dangerous place to backspace)
What I noticed was if your cursor was on one of the lines that I
labeled (dangerous place to backspace) above and you backspaced it
would delete the entire folded content. What is especially troublesome
is that the only indication that it happened is the little ... graphic
disappears.
The behavior I would like to suggest is that if you backspace in one of
the above situations the fold opens automatically and one character is
deleted. This way if I really did want to delete it all I can select it
and do so otherwise I am given a clear indication of what happened.
Sincerely,
Eric Curtis
Hi.
[file under feature request]
not sure if this would be possible ... could a Command process run
independently of TextMate? For example, On Mondays the backup runs on
our dev server which slows down rsync from my workstation. I have
rsync mapped to a command to send changes to the dev server. When
rsync runs slow, all of TextMate hangs until the rsync process is
complete. It would be nice though if I could continue working while it
rsynced my project files. I obviously haven't thought about this too
hard because what if the command is set to replace text or something.
hmm... well thought I would put it out there anyway in case there is a
way to do it.

Hi all,
I have been using TextMate since December last year and I have found
myself using it like more and more as some sort of Finder replacement.
At least for text-files that I can open and edit in TextMate.
As TextMate is my primary programming environment where I edit source
code, ini-files, etc, I have a problem when I open a file for
"browsing". I mean when I open a file with no intention to edit it but
to read it, copy code sections, check how certain functions are
implemented, etc.
The problem, or let me say the inconvenience, is that the file remains
open as a tab and I have to manually close it.
I could think of two ways to open a file: 1 - For editing, 2 - For
browsing. When a file has been opened for editing TextMate would have
the same behaviour as today. When a file has been opened for browsing I
could think of a behaviour that close the file as soon as I leave it.
For now I have no idea on how to select between open edit vs. open
browse but one way could be to use a combination of ctrl, alt or
command key to open browse.
Kind Regards
/Anders I

Hi,
I just had the chance to try "Append to each line of Selection" and I'm
wondering if it would be possible to be able to "backspace" the end of
all lines or even moving the cursor and append to each line at that
position.
This would make this feature much more useful when:
-You have to remove a closing tag before adding stuff
-You want to add stuff before the closing tab.
-You want to replace the closing tag
-etc.
Which is pretty often for me.
Maybe this would be more complicated to implement, I don't know, but
this would be one more killer feature in TM for sure.
It's good to know you've bet on the good horse. ;)
