Hi there,
a question has occurred to me while trying to open a project from the
command line: Is there any way to open a project with mate (I can't
see any switch that does so) or do I have to use OSX's open command?
Would you consider, Allan, adding support for this? It'd avoid users
having to switch depending on the file name (file type,actually) when
invoking mate from a script
Cheers
Victor

Two great features in the last release. I really appreciate reveal in
project and the symbol popup is great.
Thanks Allan.

Hi All,
Has anyone else experienced an unresponsive find dialog?
Occasionally, when I bring up find, it will let me type in the find
entry box, but clicking on any of the UI elements does nothing.
Sometimes I can hit escape to make the dialog go away, but usually I
can't do anything to make it go away or work and have to restart
TextMate. This is common for me on both of my macs. But maybe its
something in my setup. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced
this to help track down what might be causing it. Thanks _matt
A few times I've wished this feature was present. I have huge projects with
many folders and the files can number in the thousands, sometimes with the
same names but in different folders (i.e index.php).
At times I'd like to go to the folder in the drawer that a currently opened
file is from (to open another related file for instance) but that folder
and file may exist several layers deep in another folder that is now closed.
It would be nice to have a command (either from menu or right clickable
menu) that will open the folder hierarchy to expose the folder and file
list.
Thanks,
Ed
Here's a theme I made for personal use, but I've been enjoying it so much I
thought I'd share it around. I've always been fond of dark backgrounds, but
not *that dark. I started this one as a compromise, inspired by colored
chalk on a chalkboard.
I'd love to see three new items in the Automation submenus:
Replay Macro > Replay [name of last macro selected]
Insert Snippet -> Insert [name of last snippet selected]
Run Command -> Run [name of last command selected]
It's very common for me to have tasks where I dig out some obscure
command that I rarely use, use it repeatedly in a given session, and
then forget about it.
Keyboard shortcuts make sense for tasks that are done repeatedly --
either very often, or in repetitive bursts less often. This feature
would allow many seldom-used commands of the latter type to go without
permanent keyboard shortcuts, freeing up combos for more commonly used
commands. Obviously, these new menu choices themselves would need
keyboard shortcuts.
One subtle point: by "last * selected" I mean that this would apply
only to macros/snippets/commands manually chosen from the menus
(either the regular menus or the status bar menus). That way, other
keyboard commands wouldn't needlessly get picked up by this feature;
if you have invoked a macro/snippet/command via the keyboard, you
obviously don't need this feature to remember it.
I actually got this idea from Photoshop, which allows you to invoke
the last-used filter with cmd-F.
I love TM's combination of high power and low cruft. IMO this feature
would increase usability and at the same time decrease the need for
crazy five-key-mash keyboard shortcuts on obscure bundle features.
thanks for listening,
pb

I did try it for a month, but it didn't quite *click* for me. I
appreciated the code sense and such, but I ultimately had a hard time
reaching for all the other options (e.g. refactoring, etc.). It could
be that I just need more programming experience in Java to "feel" the
need for these extra tools. As such, it was heard enough for me to
stop using vim!
(Also, my first point was a bit in jest. I would spend $500 for a
superior IDE I felt comfortable using, but I simply preferred the
faster response time of within TextMate rather than the general
sluggishness that came about from IntelliJ.)

I'm actually on a 1.25 GB PowerBook. Alain, would you mind if I write
you privately, to compare our IntelliJ configurations?
thanks,

Hi List,
I applaud the symbol popup!
However I never see any symbols in it, and I have never seen anything
in the 'go to symbol' window either!
What am I doing wrong?
Howdy,
For some reason, this is only happening on my laptop .. an old g3
lombard, but anyhow, I'm using the latest build of TM.
Let me set the stage here:
I'm working on some Python stuff ...
Looking @ the bottom status bar/whatever you call, the Language is
clearly marked as Python (yay).
When I open that Language menu from down there I don't see Python in
the drop down list that opens.
If I deselect the menu w/o choosing a language, it says python.
If I switch the language from python, there's no way to switch it
back -- though if I restart TM, the file is correctly flagged as python.
It looks like the Python bundle isn't loading, or isn't being
shown .. I found this weirdness because I was trying to do a cmd-
shift-v to check my syntax and it didn't do anything ... so I went
digging for it in the Commands and noticed there is no Python bundle/
choice anywhere in the bundle editor.
I moved my /Library/App Support/TextMate/Bundles stuff out to make
sure there was no collisions ... maybe it had something to do w/ the
svn bundles .. but no, still same thing.
There are no bundles in ~/Library/App Support/TextMate/Bundles
The only bundles it's using now are the ones in
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles
(which has the Python.tmbundle)
So I'm a bit confused as to what's going on ... my desktop doesn't
display this behavior at all.
Hmm ... the laptop is running OS X.3.9
The desktop has OSX.4.3
As a side note, this behavior seems to be isolated to Python ... when
woring w/ PHP on the lappy everything seems to be fine.
That's all the info I got.
Any insight would be helpful.
Thanks,
-steve
