Commands with output 'Show as HTML' broken (mostly)

by Hugh Bien

Hi all, Most of the commands with output "Show as HTML' are broken for me. By most, I mean all except for RakeMate and Ruby's Documentation look up (Previews, Run commands, all Subversion commands, Textile/Markdown's documentation). I tried creating a new command - echo "hello world" - with Output: "Show as HTML" and it didn't work. What ends up happening is a blank, white window is open. I clicked on view source, and there's nothing there. I noticed this about two weeks ago, and I couldn't fix it. I've updated all my bundles and the support folder. I gave up, and deleted everything under '/Library/Application Support/TextMate', '~/Library/Application Support/TextMate' and anything related to textmate under '~/Library/Preferences'. And I did a clean re-install. But I still can't execute those commands. Has anyone ever had the same problem? I know for sure, I've got my .bash_profile set up correctly, but I'm using zsh (could that be it?). Thanks in advance, and thanks to everyone who tried to help me on IRC. - Hugh

Problem with GTDAlt r6072

by Norman Cohen

I just installed the svn update to GTDAlt (r6072) that reportedly has the fix for date handling. I opened a new GTDAlt document, made a new project, added a new context item and tried to insert a due date (either using # or via menu) and received an error about a non-existent nib file on the desktop. Looking at the code for "set date", I found this line that I think needs to be fixed: str = `#{e_sh dialog} ~/Desktop/testing.nib -mp #{e_sh plist}` I'm not sure which nib the command be looking in but hope that either Allan or Charilaos might be able to help fix this. Thanks, Norm --- Norman A. Cohen nacohen(a)mac.com "Whatever you may be sure of, be sure of this, that you are dreadfully like other people." James Russell Lowell

GTD Success

by Lawrence Goodman

Great! That fixed solved the problem. I now have ical sync! Couple of small things, nothing big to worry about: 1) When I've checked off a to do item in ical and then sync, it succeeds in syncing back with the textmate file, but I also get this error: /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/gtdalt_ical_synchronization.scpt: execution error: iCal got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4 (1) It doesn't seem to affect functionality, but I thought you might want to know about it. 2) In the instructions, it says: - shift-, (<) reduces the date by one day. - shift-. (>) increases the date by one day. - ctrl-, reduces the date by one week. - ctrl-. increases the date by one week. - ctrl-shift-, (ctrl-<) reduces the date by one month. - ctrl-shift-. (ctrl->) increases the date by one month. These commands don't seem to be working. Have they been eliminated? Thanks again for all the help. -- Lawrence Goodman lawrencegoodman(a)gmail.com Check out my blog: http://goodmanorama.blogspot.com

Subversion Bundle newbie question 2

by Thomas Krajacic

one more question arose: when i just use the SVN_EDITOR shell variable in tcsh and then do a commit from the commandline, TM opens and I can enter the commit message. However, when I save the file, the terminal tells me that the message has not been changed and gives me the option to abort, continue and edit again. Isn't TM supposed to deliver the message to the svn client correctly after saving the opened message log file? thanks again for helping Thomas Krajacic

tm_dialog quandry (returning array selections)

by Brett Terpstra

Okay, let's say I've got an NSScrollView tied to an arrayController. Heck, let's say I've got a few tied into eachother to create a tree. The plist passes nested arrays to allow a user to, say, pick a Backpack page->note->edit the note and return to TM where the script takes the updated note and returns it to Backpack. I've got the first half all finished, but the plist that comes back to TM just contains the whole array including the edited note and there's no easy way to tell what's changed. How do I pass back the id's of the selected page/note and the note body separately or marked as modified? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brett

select to copy and middle-button paste?

by William Scott

One of the nice features of iTerm and Aqua-Emacs is that selecting text copies into the paste-buffer, and clicking the middle mouse button pastes in text from the buffer, as with X11 programs. (That, and focus-follows-mouse are the two features I miss most from other unix operating systems). Is there a way to do this in TextMate, and if not, is there any chance it might one day be implemented as an optional feature? Bill

Figured Out GTDalt Problems, But Now ...

by Lawrence Goodman

So I figured out what was wrong with my GTDalt installation: 1) I had the GTD file with a suffix of .txt instead of .gtd. I suppose I should have figured this out, but I don't remember reading it in any of the instructions. 2) I had to upgrade the dialog plugin. As a newbie, I typically rely on Get Bundle to fetch my packets, but with a plug-in you need to do it through Subversion and the command line. I also needed to create a folder in Application Support/Textmate called "PlugIns." Now everything words as it should except: Ical sync continues to create calendars, but not add to do items. I get this error msg: /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/gtdalt_ical_synchronization.scpt: execution error: /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/get_lists.rb:5:in `require': No such file to load -- ../lib/GTD.rb (LoadError) from /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/get_lists.rb:5 (1) Anyone know what this means?

LaTeX / Bibliography Completion and Label From Document problem

by Özgür Gökmen

Strange behaviour of Bibliography Completion and Label From Document commands accessed through option-esc. Description of the problem, and workaround based on my correspondence with Charilaos (Harris) Skiadas are below for archival purpose. Thanks Harris! -- Working system PowerPC G4, Mac OS X Version 10.4.8, TexMate Version 1.5.4 (1324), TexLive Full Installation (2006/11/07) [Tex (based upon TeX Live)] / MacTeX (10 November 2006) -- Description of the problem option-esc results in: \footcite{sh: line 1: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.6.1/ kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file sh: line 1: /usr/local/teTeX/ bin/i386-apple-darwin8.6.1/kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file cite_key} \ref{sh: line 1: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.8.1/ kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file sec:section_name} \ref{sh: line 1: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.8.1/ kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file fig:label_name} TeXLive and MacTeX installations modify /etc/profile, and set the path as: PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current", which is actually an alias for /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple- darwin7.9.0/. The scripts of both commands use first `which kpsewhich`, and only if that fails, `locate kpsewhich` to find out where kpsewhich lives. Running the which kpsewhich command in the terminal returns: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/kpsewhich Running the locate kpsewhich command in the terminal returns: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.8.1/kpsewhich /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/kpsewhich /usr/local/TeXLive/man/man1/kpsewhich.1 /usr/local/TeXLive/texmf.texlive/doc/man/man1/kpsewhich.1 The `which kpsewhich' command in both scripts fails -- according to my humble opinion, due to the fact that what is finds is not the actual file but an alias. Then `locate kpsewhich` points to the first kpsewhich it finds on the system, which is an intel binary. Thus it declares "[...] cannot execute binary file". (If you have the Basic Installation of TeXLive, which does not come with intel binaries, it will declare "[...] cannot find binary file".) -- Workaround Bibliograpyh Completion, and Label From Document commands are based on the following scripts: LatexCitekeys.rb, and LatexLabelCompletions.rb. Both of them live in /Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin. Edit both scripts, replacing the following loop -- lines 51-55, and 11-15, respectively: if `which kpsewhich`.match(/^no kpsewhich/) then kpsewhich = `locate kpsewhich`.split("\n").grep(/kpsewhich$/)[0] else kpsewhich = "kpsewhich" end with a statement indicating the correct path to the powerpc kpsewhich binary. kpsewhich = "/usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/ kpsewhich" or kpsewhich = "/usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/kpsewhich" should both work. Check your /etc/profile or better run "echo $PATH" in the terminal to confirm your path. -- Özgür Gökmen | og(a)pyromedia.org

silly question about the zoom button

by Jay Soffian

TextMate's zoom button (the green jewel in the title bar) maximizes windows to the full screen. Great on my 12" PowerBook. Highly annoying on my 24" iMac. I'd rather it maximize vertically only. This behavior seems to vary across OS X applications (Safari only maximizes vertically e.g.). Any chance there is a hidden preference? Thanks, j.

XCode bundle

by Michael Gregoire

Great work on the bundle so far... though I'm currently having trouble running the executable. When choosing Build & Run or just Run, I get the following error: /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Xcode.tmbundle/Support/ bin/run_xcode_target.rb:175:in `run': undefined local variable or method `file' for # (NameError) from /Library/Application Support/ TextMate/Bundles/Xcode.tmbundle/Support/bin/run_xcode_target.rb: 193:in `run' from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/ Xcode.tmbundle/Support/bin/parse_build.rb:202 from /Library/ Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Xcode.tmbundle/Support/bin/ format_build.rb:559
