Here is a useful bundle for testing out ruby snippets. It includes a script from eigenclass.org[1]. ⌘= insert/remove an eval marker for the current line ⌘E evaluates and annotate the file according to the markers If there are errors they are placed at the end of the file. Examples (after eval): (1..10).each do |i| i ** i # => 1, 4, 27, 256, 3125, 46656, 823543, 16777216, 387420489, 10000000000 end (1..10).to_a # => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] Unfortunately you can't do something like this: (1..10).each do |i| i ** i end # => [1]: http://eigenclass.org/hiki.rb?xmp+redux%3A+expanding+test +assertions+for+profit -- Daniel

iframes don't preview?

by Timothy Bates

Hi there. When you preview web pages containing iframes that drag in information from the web, the frame displays as filled with unicode characters (instead of the programmed content). You can see this by viewing this email in textmate (cntrl-cmd-E). Compare that to what you get if you view the email in safari (you can't just view, as it will have a .mail extension - reveal in finder and toggle this to html then double click. <iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm? t=thewizardsoft-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&asins=B000BW7QWW&#0 38;fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000ff&bc1=ffffff &bg1=ffffff&f=ifr" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" align=right frameborder="0"> </iframe>

(no subject)

by Bastiaan Terhorst

Last week I posted about a little tool I made to allow editing of SQL data within textmate. I've turned this program into a bundle, which you can download here: http://vivified.net/files/downloads/SQLEdit-bundle-09.zip See the help command for more information. It seems to require Ruby 1.8.4, why this is I'm not sure yet. I'm very much a ruby newbie. Also, I can't seem to get rid of the HTML output window as I need the edit process to be run in a separate window from the main textmate window (otherwise it freezes and I can't load anything into it). Is there a way to spawn a new background process, and then end my initial textmate command process? Anyway, I'd love to hear if anyone finds this useful. I myself use it to edit my Textpattern site's templates, as they are all stored inside the database. Cheers, Bastiaan

Updated Tidy Command for MS Word documents

by John Tsombakos

Just to give back a little, I made a change to the Tidy command in the HTML bundle (actually, made a new bundle and copied code and changed it.) When running the stock Tidy HTML command on an HTML document that was created by saving a Microsoft Word document as HTML, it completely deletes the contents document! In my duplicate of the Tidy command, I added an option for Tidy to know it's dealing with a Word document. I added: --word-2000 yes to the tidy command in the bundle. The first few lines now are: "${TM_TIDY:-tidy}" -f /dev/null -iq -utf8 -asxhtml -wrap 0 --tab-size $TM_TAB_SIZE --word-2000 yes --indent-spaces $TM_TAB_SIZE ${TM_SELECTED_TEXT:+--show-body-only yes}|\ Now it cleans all of the extra MS junk that's added to a document. There's still a little clean up to do (it doesn't delete the <o:p></o:p> useless tags, but that's easy to do.) Hope this helps someone! jt

FileMerge commands

by Aparajita Fishman

Hi, I have created a few commands that are analogous to the Subversion commands which diff against a revision, but instead of generating a diff output, the result is sent to FileMerge for viewing, which IMHO is a whole lot easier to read. The commands look like this: ------------- require_cmd "${TM_SVN:=svn}" "If you have installed svn, then you need to either update your <tt>PATH</tt> or set the <tt>TM_SVN</tt> shell variable (e.g. in Preferences / Advanced)" require_cmd opendiff "You must install the Apple developer tools to run FileMerge." "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/bin/filemerge.sh" BASE "$TM_FILEPATH" ------------- filemerge.sh looks like this: ------------- #!/bin/sh # # $1 = svn revision # $2 = full path to file ($TM_FILEPATH) # First see if the file is under svn control FILE=`basename "$2"` INFO_LINES=`svn info 2>&1 > /dev/null | wc -l` if [ $INFO_LINES -eq 2 ]; then echo "The current file is not under subversion control" exit 206 fi SIZE=`svn diff -r $1 "$2" | wc -m` if [ $SIZE -eq 0 ]; then echo "No difference" exit 206 fi INODE=`stat -f "%i" "$2"` TMPPATH="/tmp/tm-opendiff-$INODE.tmp" svn cat -r $1 "$2" > "$TMPPATH" opendiff "$TMPPATH" "$2" ----------- To create a command for a different revision, change BASE in the command to something else (e.g. HEAD or PREV).

Getting at the 'Commit' button without leaving the keyboard

by Michael Larocque

Hi all, Sorry for this - it's probably something very obvious that I'm missing - it might be a default Mac feature that I'm not aware of. Here's the situation... I want to check a file into subversion. I hit Shift+Control+a and select Commit. I enter my comment in the Summary of changes panel. Now I want to 'hit' the Commit button without my hands leaving the keyboard (i.e. not using the mouse). I've tried every key combo I can think of, but I couldn't find one. Anyone? P.S. Allan, I absolutely _love_ TextMate. I would buy a Mac just to use this program.

A Feature I would kill (and pay for) true Xcode integration...

by Vinay Venkatesh

I would be very very very very happy if there was a way to have a TextMate textview totally replace the Xcode editor. I'm sure others have asked for this, but searching through the list was painful on my slow-ass internet connection, so I make the request here. The idea is that you could write a SIMBL wrapper or an Xcode plugin wrapper (the API, though private, has been documented) around a subclass of the Xcode TextView (a dump of the framework - used to be called PBX.framework or some such would garner the class) and then basically do a poseAs. I, for one, would certainly be willing to pay for this feature. That is, I already own TM, and I would happily buy another license for this product for $40. What are the odds, difficulties, etc of this? vinayvenkatesh

SVN integration error

by Giovanni Intini

When I try to execute a SVN command I get this error: /bin/bash: line 1: require_cmd: command not found Then most of the commands work fine except for svn status that gives no output. Any clue? I already checked the various enviroment variables but everything seems ok.

Double-Click on Brackets Selects Enclosing Brackets and Possible Shifting Bug

by Paul Mucur

(I am using TextMate 1.5.1 (961) on Mac OS X 10.4.6.) I see in the archives that Ke Han asked for a "bracket matching feature" on 8th March (http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/ 2006-March/008927.html) wherein a user could double-click on a bracket to select the enclosing content (ala BBEdit) but that the only way to reproduce this behaviour is via the shift-cmd B "Select Enclosing Brackets" command. Is there any way for me to implement this behaviour as I would greatly appreciate being able to select the contents of an entire bracket so easily? If not, is there any chance of it appearing in a future release of TextMate? My main use would be to quickly identify where the closing (or opening) bracket for some code lies. On another note, I have noticed what I believe is a bug when shifting lines left and right: Shifting a line to the left moves the cursor one character to the right and shifting a line to the right shifts the cursor one character to the left when I expected the cursor to remain relatively stationary. More noticeably, this means that if the cursor was at the end of the line and the user shifts left, the cursor goes to the next line. Thanks in advance, -- Paul
