Hi,
I use my ftp client Cyberduck with Textmate, every time I edit a file
(double click on a file in cyberduck), it will open a new window in
Textmate, for every file I click on. Is there anyway to config
Textmate so that Textmate can open files in tab by default?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm new on the list, so sorry for stating the obvious.
The documentation of TextMate is terrible.
<rant>
After using TextMate for some time, and struggling with many features, a
collegue pointed that there is some documentation at
http://macromates.com/doc/
However, there is no link to this URL. Please make a link to this page
from the home page. Now, please.
Thanks. What? You haven't done so? Stop reading then! Please do it
*NOW*, before other people waste their precious time.
I had to find the function of multiple functions (e.g. how DragCommands
work, that they only work with file, not URL's, how tab triggers work,
etc. etc.) by Googling and reading earlier posts on the mailing list. I
really could have saved a lot of time if I knew earlier that there was
some documentation out there. In fact I strongly recommend to add a menu
item in the Help menu which directly links to this documentation, and
release a minor update :-)
</rant>
I just started reading the docs, and here is some first comments:
Please change the order of the paragraphs "Selecting Text" and "Editing
modes" on the "Working with Text" page. "Editing Modes" discusses the
column mode, which was introduced in "selecting text", so the later
paragraph must come first. In the current order, the "Editing Modes" was
hard to comprehend.

Freek Dijkstra
PS: This is a re-sent; my original posting seems to be rejected because
the list software was a bit slow, and thought I wasn't on the list yet.
Sorry if you get this twice.

That would be awesome!

Are there any plans for, or any interest in, making it easier to see
and set the newline style of open files? Right now it seems you can
control this only through the Preferences dialog, and there's no
at-a-glance way to tell (or change) what newline style an open file is
actually using.
The absence of this bit me last night, when I made changes to
someone's PHP file that had been saved with Mac newlines. I had added
some HEREDOC-quoted text, and the script started throwing parsing
errors which completely stumped me until I opened the file in Some
Other Text Editor and saw that it was using Mac newlines.
A newline type selector/indicator in the bottom bar is the most
obvious thing to do (it might even be combined with the spaces/tabs
popup), but I'm sure there are other ways to do it as well.
Possible?
thanks

First wanted to say I love textmate. It and amazing piece of work
and I just recently discovered it. (I just switched to a mac a few
months ago).
i'd like to see an option to sort folders first in the files panel.
I am not sure how possible this is with the cocoa controls
Another suggestion (and I think it was already purposed) is to be
able to double click on folder names.
I just wanted to see if this was a possibility before I purchased :)

i'm sure there's been discussion of this before, but was wondering if there
was anyway to add a preference to have the tabs for the open files of a
project wrap to multiple lines instead of limiting them to one line and
having that dropdown menu on the right show up. i like to see ALL the files
i have open at once and can't stand that dropdown. is this possible? it
seems the 'tab component' should be able to handle this. i can look into it
if you'd like...
thanx!

I've been using the macro below on my laptop with TextMate for quite a
while, and just realized I didn't have it on my G5. I went to record
it and ended up having a terrible time. It seems that with newer
versions of textmate (I couldn't tell you which version I was on when
I recorded it on my laptop) when you record the macro below, it adds
an "insert text" command with whatever tag has been inserted.
The macro:
In an HTML document, type < (it inserts <>, but ignore
that), now do:
1) Automation / Start Macro Recording
2) Backwards delete (to delete <, which also removes >)
3) Automation / Insert Closing Tag
4) Automation / Stop Macro Recording
Now save this macro, give it key equivalent /, and here's the sneaky
part: set the scope to: text.html invalid.illegal.incomplete
The scope controls when the macro should "fire", and if you press
ctrl-shift P inside <>, you'll see the scope of that position, which
is what's quoted above. So only inside <> will / fire this macro,
which first removes the <> and then inserts the closing tag.
In newer versions, instead of just coming out with
deleteBackward:
insertClosingTag:
it also adds
insertText: </html> (or whichever tag you happened to be closing)
I was able to open up the recorded macro in the Property List Editor
and remove the third command, but that is not a very elegant solution.
This was working properly in the past!

Hi,
I suspect you're going to say 'no, it's a limitation of the way the
parsing is done', but would it be possible to collapse white space in
the display of symbols? See the attached example. The file itself
has these items being split by a newline and indentation...
Actually, on a related note, it would be really nice if the auto-
indentation would behave in the way I want it to for indented
function arguments. That is, if I hit enter inside an open bracket,
the next line should be indented to one beyond the open bracket on
the previous line. And when the corresponding closed bracket
happens, the indentation should revert to what it was before. As an
example:
tickets = self.sql.listTickets(ticket_id = id,
/* Caret should be placed at the
'/' of this comment. */
support_of = 123,
account = 'foo(a)acmewidgets.example')
/* Caret should be placed at the '/' of this comment. */
Is it possible to do this?
