I'm looking for an easy way to add a shell variable to TextMates
preferences via a shell script, I've got so far but the final step
seems a little illusive.
The following just overwrites what's already there....
defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakShellVariables '{enabled =
1; value = "/Users/simon/classes"; variable = "CLASS_PATH"; }'
As the script would run as part of a bundle package install it would
be possible to quit textmate first and not run the risk of defaults
confusion, but ideally I'd like something similar that could simply
be executed via a command.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Simon
Yeah I bought BBEdit a few years ago and it cost almost 6 times what
TextMate cost. It was something like $350 Australian dollars.
I sent a few questions and suggestions to their support team and I
recieved a pathetic condecending email explaing very pretentiously
why it was not possible to highlight interpolated variables inside
strings because of 'XML Parsing Rules'.
I paid another $80 odd AU dollars for the 7 to 8 update. What was in
8 that was not in 7? A document drawer. So I paid $80 dollars for a
document draw... Really.
Textmate was about $60 AUD and I get daily builds, I can speak to the
author directly and the application kicks arse!
So all you poo-poo'ers can get stuffed because it's well worth the
cost. If Textmate was $350 AU I'd probably pay that much, too.
(And also for the record I own a license of Zend Studio, and I paid
about $450 AU for that, and they suck, too. I won't be renewing that
license, that's for sure!)

In regards to :
[CHANGED] Rather than set soft tabs (that spaces should be used
instead of tabs) and tab size in the bundle editor for language
specific tab settings, the popup in the status bar will now record
changes only for the current (root) scope -- for scopes where an
explicit choice hasn't been made, it'll use the closest with an
explicit choice, and in case of a tie, it picks the one which most
recently was updated.
What am I missing here? I cannot find the soft tabs setting anymore.
I thought it was in preferences. I.E., I had trouble with a Python
script after updating to rev. 680 (had to convert all spaces to tabs)
and want to make sure that I am still editing with spaces as tabs.
thanks, K
It would be nice if there were tool-tips when mousing over the status bar
items: that would help users remember and understand the items there.
It would also be very handy if the automation menu (the sprocket in a
circle) was provided when right-clicking.
I would find it more intuitive to be in the text, and right-click, than to
move the mouse down to the (hard to hit) status bar to select automation
actions.

Hi everyone,
I'm new here. I didn't see any archives to the list so if my question
has already been asked, my apologies.
In BBEdit and other editors I was used to having a function popup that
shows all functions/methods in the current file. Is there such a thing
in TextMate? Or what is the TextMate-way of handling this?
Thanks!

Hi,
one thing that stops me from making more use of the project view is the
problem of losing files when they are renamed or moved outside the textmate
environment.
Is there a reason that the project view doesn't store alias's? These allow
you to track files seamlessly.
Also, it seems wrong to be able to add a file twice to the project:
shouldn't the project detect that the file is already there and just
activate it's view tab?
It the purpose is to allow multiple views of the same file, then this might
be better achieved by split panes?

Hi Folks,
seems OS X 10.4.3 has introduced a bug deep down in the
NSTreeController object, causing TextMate to crash if you are using
the TmCodeBrowser2 hack.
If you have updated or want to update, please move these directories
to the trash:
~/Library/InputManagersManager
~/Library/InputManagers/InputManagersManager
You will not be able to empty the trash until you logged out or
rebooted.
I am working on a workaround, but it is a bit involved. I'll annonce
the new version (now as a tmplugin) as soon as it is ready, hopefully
within the next day or 2.
