The Finder. If you don't have textmate, you can navigate in the
Finder to /usr/X11R6/bin and double-click on a file, and it runs. I
don't use the system that way -- I'm basically a unix geek, but it is
the default system behavior.

Apple has a program that does this it calls open-x11. I guess it is
useful if one doesn't have /usr/X11/bin in the $PATH, but apart from
that, it seems kind of silly (and has some odd limitations).

I wrote a simple-minded shell-script wrapper for "mate" that tests
files and excludes them if they are binary data files, mainly to
allow creating projects on the command-line that exclude files I
can't edit (and pass them off to other programs). FWIW: http://

Sorry, I thought it would be easy to exclude specific directories
like /usr/X11R6/bin and /sw/bin.
I'm not complaining, just curious (and largely ignorant of how these
things work).
All the best,
Bill
I installed DarwinPorts (now MacPorts) several weeks ago, and installed
TextMate today. When I click on a Unix app found in /opt/local/bin, such
as /opt/local/bin/kmail, instead of the app opening using Apple's X11,
which it was doing previously, it now opens in TextMate.
If I Get Info, I cannot change the file association back to X11 due to
permissions.
Is there a solution that I'm simply not seeing? So far, the only thing
that works is uninstalling TextMate, which I obviously don't want to do.
Thanks.
Scott

I had a specific need for a snippet, that would have current word (with
fall back to selected text) to generate either a container tag or a
single tag, depending on whether the ending forward slash was removed in
the tab stop variable or not.
I use this for the TXP bundle to generate a plugin tag, since those tags
would not get matched by the insert open/close tag command, (ctrl shift
<) since it is impossible to know about all of them.
It uses the following snippet(with capture register 1 to decide weather
the closing container tag should be inserted or not :
tag="${TM_CURRENT_WORD:-TM_SELECTED_TEXT}"
tags="<txp:\${1:$tag}\${2: />}\$3\${2/ \/>|(.+)/(?1:<\/txp\:$tag> )/}"
echo "$tags"
The macro then selects the current word, triggers the command, which has
output set as "Insert as Snippet" and tabs over the second tab stop
variable.
Not knowing right now where to put it, I assigned it to :( ctrl shift >
) and named it simply: Tag/s
Here is how to use it:
write the tag name, trigger the macro, which will insert a single tag.
If that is intended, then pressing one more time tab will leave the
caret at the end of the single tag.
When the tag is no single tag, the you just type : >
and it will mirror itself inserting the corresponding closing
tag,leaving a tab stop variable in between.
This is perfect, since I can then just press return and it will do the
special HTML return behavior.
You can easily adapt this to your needs, for HTML or anything else.
(I forgot to encounter for attributes though)

It's not implemented yet.
This is on Allan's ToDo list :-)

Very good. Now let's try it in TextMate. Make a TextMate doc, set it to
Ruby, put Object.new.hello into it, and run it. The RubyMate window appears
and says:
NoMethodError: undefined method 'hello' for #
I'm guess that the loss of <Object:xxx> is because of an HTML problem. Hmmm,
I suppose I *could* try to fix this instead of just talking about it. :)
Anyway, a fix would be nice to have. Thx - m.

Is there any way to make textmate save, without a dialog, the
frontmost document, from a command?
I tried `osascript -e 'tell application "TextMate" to save document
1'`, but I got a file dialog. Thanks for your assistance.
Jeremy
Good morning.
I think something similar has been brought up previously on the
mailing list, but I didn't see a resolution so I thought I'd check in.
I've got a script that I've got triggering on Cmd-S to create a
backup file each time I save. However, the problem is that if I have
an unsaved document and click Cmd-W and hit Enter to save, my script
does not execute because Cmd-S was never pressed.
What I would love is to be able to trigger on an event like the
"save" event in this example. Another subscriber to this list had a
few other events that he thought would be useful, too.
Any chance something like this is in the pipeline, Allan?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I am looking for a window splitting function in TextMate : does-it exist somewhere ?
Indeed, I am thinking in an horizontal split....you all know what I mean, I presume. Being able to see two different parts of the same text in the same window (the top and the end of a text, e.g.)
Does anyone has an idea ?

Hi to all,
I am writing a documentation, and started off in HTML.
However, that creates all sorts of problems, so I'd like to do it in
Markdown better.
The problem is, that I have written already half of the documentation
using HTML (which I prefer over Textile or Markdown)
Is there a command to convert back to Markdown from HTML ?
I couldn't see one (I was wondering may be also I broke some stuff,
because of SVN)
