Hi, I'm modifying the default actionscript bundle and I have a regex question that I haven't been able to figure out. I want to match a function declaration, but I don't want to capture the arguments of the function. In other words, in a function like this: public function addItem(name: String, item: MenuItem): Void { // ... } I want to color "addItem(" and ")" but not "name: String, item: MenuItem Is this possible in one regex expression? Is there some way to match something by looking for a leading (or trailing) indicator without including the indicator in the match? In other words... something like: [in pseudocode] find ")" preceded by "function [a-zA-Z_]* ( ^)" I'm currently using this regex to successfully capture the whole thing: match = "\\b(function)\\s+([a-zA-Z_]\\w*)\\s*\\([^\\)]*\\)"; Thanks for the help!

minor bugs in Markdown bundle

by Xavier Noria

Hello! Who is the maintainer of the bundle for Markdown? Looks like he is missing from the README in svn. I noticed the regexp for emphasis match = "[*]([^\\\\*]|\\\\.)*?[*]"; causes the engine to beautify the bulleted list * normal *emph*. with " normal " in italics instead of "emph". Do those TM regexps support some sort of precedence? Do they supoprt look-behind assertions? In addition, the regexp for itemized lists looks too weak: begin = "^\\s*[*+-]"; According to the current spec it would be something like: begin = "^ {0,3}[*+-][ \\t]"; -- fxn

"test" in Language editor not working with "inline markdown"

by Charilaos Skiadas

I noticed the following while playing with the markdown bundle. Seems to me like a bug when changing a language that is included in the current language for a document. 1) Open an empty document, write some stuff (including some inline markdown like emphasis) and select markdown as a language. 2) Make changes to the inline markdown language, press format and test. They are not reflected in the text. 3) Opening a new file, copying the text over, and making the language in the new file markdown reflects the changes. The original file still does not show any difference. 4) Changing the language of the original file to LaTeX, and then back to markdown doesn't fix it either. 5) Changing the language of the original file to Inline markdown, and then back to markdown still leaves it bad.

Question and possible feature request: Dictionary

by Robert M. Zigweid

Tiger has a new feature in Cocoa apps. The dictionary feature. I had thought that TextMate was Cocoa. (To be honest, I haven't looked that closely). Out of curiosity when I was using the dictionary feature, which is activated with command-control-d, I noticed that it did not do anything. Is this explicitly disabled in TextMate, or is there a key-binding that I haven't found yet that masks the system key-binding. I'm using b12 and have relatively new bundles. -- Robert M.

Cmd-` doesn't really cycle through the windows?

by Charilaos Skiadas

Just wondering if this is a bug or the expected behavior. I currently have open the theme editor, and bundle editor, and a document. If I press Cmd-` successively, the windows come in front in the following order: document - bundle - document - theme - document - bundle - .... I would have expected document - bundle - theme - document - bundle - ..... If I have two documents open, the sequence of events is: document1 - bundle - document1 - theme - document1 - document2 - bundle - document 2 - theme - document2 - document1 - ... This certainly doesn't feel right, and it takes forever to get from document1 to document2. Haris

Hello, I'm a Windows->MAC switcher and have tried several source code editors. I was very charmed by TextMate! ;-)) Now my question. Is there anyone who has the configuration files for XBase, dBase or CA-Clipper language Syntax Highlighting? Thank you! Best regards -- Patrick Mast, http://www.PatrickMast.com

TextMate service and Quicksilver shortcut conflict

by Ben Jackson

Is the TextMate service shortcut still command-esc? I use Quicksilver, and the shortcut conflicts with "Send to Quicksilver". ___________________ Ben Jackson Diretor de Desenvolvimento ben(a)incomumdesign.com http://www.incomumdesign.com

Always centralizes cursor's row on save

by Peter Cooper

Searched the list for this and went through the Preferences and menus and couldn't find anything about this problem.. so I apologize if it's an easy RTFM answer! Since upgrading to the latest TextMate, I've noticed that whenever I save, the screen jumps to centralize the row that the cursor is currently on. Why? This is driving me nuts because I'm always hitting Cmd+S (usually without thinking) every now and then while I'm developing and the jump jars my thought process. b5 did not do this. So.. how can I turn this off? Thanks in advance! Peter Cooper

Huge delay in TextMate 1.1b12

by Christopher Petrilli

I write a LOT of LaTeX documents, and as I was working on the class for one of them, I've noticed that when trying to fix up some braces ({}), TextMate will slam the CPU on my iMac G5 to 100% for 15-20 seconds, before continuing. Here's a little snip from what I was trying to fix: \newcommand{\tla}[1]{{\scshape {\MakeLowercase{#1}}}} Not very complex, but when I added the last closing brace, it went wonky. I had thought in the past that it wouldn't come out, so I'd kill it, but this time, I just let it run, and eventually it fixed itself. I tried switching to plain text, and that helped, so it seems to be something in the way the language pack is written. Any thoughts? Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli | petrilli(a)gmail.com
