Hi out there,
Sorry to disturb you during Steve is showing the new iPhone. But i
have a little question. I am using TextMate to compile my LaTeX
Documents. I was just asking if i can use LaTeX to create a Test or
Quiz. And yes you can! If you are using the package exam. So i was
downloading some examples hit Command+R and the compiler said that he
is missing some exam.sty
Can someone help me out?
Thanks
Dear all,
I'm hacking on a little project that is somewhat abusing the
'Pipe text through' feature of TextMate's Web Preview window
(''abusing'' in the sense that I do not want to preview HTML text).
If you open the Web Preview and uncheck the 'Pipe text through'
option you can observe how rapidly TextMate can update the
preview (set the 'Refresh after change delay' to 0.00s and type
away in some plain text -- the update seems almost immediate and
you'll have immediate typing response in the editor window).
Enabling 'Pipe text through' makes TextMate pipe the current
editor window contents into the specified command. Even if you
only specify 'cat >/dev/null' as that command, you will notice
that text editing will become sluggish. I assume that this
delay is all due to the overhead of *forking* the specified
command -- executing 'cat >/dev/null' itself takes no noticable
time on files of size <100k on my Powerbook G4.
I've got two questions here:
(1) Is there a smarter way to receive live updates of the
current editor window contents? Maybe via the plugin API?
(2) How about a comptabile change in 'Pipe text through's
behavior? If the file specified in 'Pipe text through' is a
named pipe (mkfifo(1)) do not fork any command but simply
write the editor window contents into that named pipe.
Otherwise, behave as before.
Item (2) sounds like a moderate change that could get us rid
of the forking overhead for at least some applications that
need live update. What are the chances that Allan has open
ears for such things?
Thanks and all the best for the New Year,

1-open a new TM window
2-write a line containing " \\\a" (some spaces, some slashes, smthng else)
3-move the cursor back in the middle of the spaces
4-double click
Result: the spaces AND the slashes are selected.
Am I the only one to hate this? I expect the spaces
only to be selected.
Regards,
Piero

Alex,
I'm with you all the way, but as a SVN noob, I haven't been able to
figure out how to set up ssh + svn so that I could use something like
ZigVersion on my various macs. If you know of a good guide, I'd be
much obliged. (And the one that comes with SVN leaves me in the dark.)
Darkly yours,

I'm switching from Zends IDE to textmate and have encountered
something i would like to enable but have the foggiest how to or even
if it is possible.
In Zend if you double click a php variable, ie $variable_name; then
the whole variable word including the $ would be selected and not
just the word text. Is there anyway to code this via the bundle
editor. I haven't really got a clue about it myself.
K, so I just started using TextMate. I am not a huge coder but let me
say that this software rocks.
So I am wondering if any of you can tell me how to fix this error
that I am having with the blogging bundle?
When I fetch posts I get this error

Is it possible to re-bind Cmd+J and Shift+Cmd+J? Or are they consumed
by the menu system? I was unable to locate the appropriate command
TextMate uses for these keys.
Also, is there a complete list of commands TextMate supports for key
bindings. The default KeyBindings.dict does not list everything
(e.g., movePageUp, movePageDown).
Thanks.

Hi,
has someone experiences with RubyOSA – a Ruby/AppleEvent Bridge (esp.
whether it is faster than osascript running in BASH)?

Is there an equivalent in TextMate to C-x C-f in Emacs, where you can
specify the path and name of a file to open using the keyboard? I know
about CMD-O but that brings up the GUI File/Open dialog.
Been using TM for about 2 weeks now, I'd like to know bundles others find
useful.
Thanks

The Code Ninja is swift with his tool, precise in his delivery, and deadly
accurate in his execution.
Wondering if there is a way that I can configure the web preview
window to open up previews using a testing server address instead of
the file path.
Instead of it previewing like this
file:///Users/mswallace/Sites/phpTuts/lesson2/arithmetic.php
I want it to open like this
http://localhost:8888/php Tuts/lesson2/arithmetic.php

Attached is a bundle of commands for html h1-h5.
They build on the bundle "additional html" which was just sent to the
list.
They add the feature which most brings me back to Dreamweaver: they
not only turn selections (or whole lines with no selection) into a
heading, they also work on existing headings, changing them to the
selected level.
I'd welcome feedback and/or seeing something like this included in
the proposed expanded html bundle.
If you drag-and-drop a CD or DVD on an open
TextMate window this produces a nicely formatted
list of the contents. Folder names end with / ,
and one or more tabs denote the hierarchy
of nested folders.
I'm tempted to use TM for this. Actually searching
is already ok; I might use a project to group different
media into different folders, etc.
The only thing I am missing is a way to fold the
list at the appropriate level. The fully expanded
list is something like
CDname/
firstFolder/
subFolder/
file1.txt
file2.mp3
file3.txt
secondFolder/
file1
file2
file3
thirdFolder/
and I would do things like: see only the
CD names, or see only stuff down to one level
of tabs, or down to two levels of tabs etc.
This should be doable with the folding system of TM.
How? ok I could discover myself, and I'll certainly do
as soon as I have one solid week free (around 2009 I guess)
BTW, if you have a cataloging bundle ready I would
appreciate it a lot...

Hi,
Is there a way to insure that the project draw will always open on the
left? About fifty percent of the time it opens on the right and I have
to close it, then move the window to the right and then reopen the
project drawer so it shows on the left. A hassle I would really like
to eliminate.
Thanks,
Peter

I tried to update all Bundles with the "GetBundle" Plugin but nothing

I am sure this topic was already mentioned but I wasn't able to find
anything in the archives or my mailbox (cause of deleting unnecessary

Thanks for helping

Does anyone have a working command to trigger YummyFTP's insanely
cool AutoRoute feature?
I want to be able to click "CMD-Shift-U" and have my current file
magically get uploaded to the correct server and location. I've found
accounts online of people doing this, but they don't say exactly how
it's done.
Thanks in advance!

Could the list help me with the following: I like to have a command
that, when activated with the caret in a (unique) file-in-project
name, finds this file and loads it automatically in textmate.
The function I'm looking for is comparable to that offered by the
txmt URI with 2 differences: (1) with the txmt URI any text file can
be loaded (I only want a file from my textmate project) and (2) the
full path and file name needs to be specified (I only want to give
the file name).
Any help is appreciated.

Brad,
I'd not used tags before, and I like the cloud so I'll toy with it.

Hi,
I look at 'Insert Command Template' and this one of my favorites ;)
Nevertheless I have some humble suggestions to improve it:
1)
Now this command executes the apropos function within a new fresh R
session. This means that it doesn't know which libraries I'm
currently using and it doesn't know which functions I defined within
my R session. To use 'Insert Command Template' also for this you
should load the function 'getSig.r' in my current session (renamed in
'.getSig' ) and executes this within my session to get these
signatures too.
By doing so you would increase the speed of it enormously and you can
insert signatures for user-defined functions and functions coming
from loaded libraries.
The disadvantage of it would be that you have such queries in your
current session; ok you don't see them in the TM R console window,
but if you save it workspace you would have these.
To avoid this you could think about to write the answer of the query
into a file and load it in TM.
Or, if you don't interested in the user-defined functions you could
start a new R session which loads all libraries which are loaded in
my current session.
(I don't know whether this would also work for user-defined fucntions?)
2)
If you use the approach in 1) then you can do more elaborated things
with it because of the speed.
Examples:
-If I look for for a keyword it will insert the signature like the
old version. If there is nothing found it will look for functions
which begins with the keyword like the old version.
-If I type e.g. 'data.' it lists all methods for 'data.' like
data.class, data.frame etc. but not 'dataentry'
-If I type e.g. '.difftime' you get all functions where '.difftime'
is specified like mean.difftime, print.difftime. To insert the
signature you have to select the keyword in beforehand otherwise it
shows a tooltip.
-If I have no idea about the complete name of a function you can type
e.g. '.load.'. This would look for '*load*' as regexp. Furthermore
sometimes I cannot remember whether the a function is called
'shownames' or 'showNames', so you can write '.names.' and it looks
for '*names*|*Names*'.
I would use periods for '.foo.' for indicating this because it will
be caught be Ruby's getword function.
Of course you can do more things:
-You could catch the 'apropos()' function and run it in TM and print
the result as pop down menu
and and and
What do you think about it?
To change to code would be relatively easy.
Best,
-Hans
Dear group,
Thanks for your excellent PyMate. Unfortunately I have started using
shelve to save intermediate results and have found a bug. Try the
following simplest script. (which uses the underlying problem pickle)
Please can somebody check that the error below occurs on the minimum
script that I have. I have copied the PyMate output below. I
particularly want to know if I have corrupted my python bundle in
some way.
This script runs without error when using the normal textmate command
=============
import pickle
class testobject(object):
pass
pickle.dumps(testobject())
=============
HIDE STDERR SHOW STDERR
Python 2.4.3 - PyMate r5848
For comments contact the author.
The regular Python interpreter can be invoked using ⌘⇧R.

Hi,
I just thought about a tiny improvement regarding to display plots in
Preview.
If I want to plot something, Preview opens it. Fine. After doing that
I want to change the plot for instance. The new plot will be
calculated but Preview still displays the old one. I have to 'Revert'
it or close it before running the R script.
To make a quasi-update automatically here's a suggestion:
________________
defaults write /Applications/Preview.app/Contents/Info
NSAppleScriptEnabled -bool YES
P=$(osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to (name of
processes) contains "Preview"')
if [ "$P" == "true" ]; then
osascript <<-AS2 &>/dev/null
tell application "Preview"
close every window
end tell
AS2
fi
"$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/tmR.rb"
________________
Explanation:
'default write' has to execute only once to enable AppleScript in
Preview. So you can comment it out if set.
The next line checks whether Preview runs or not.
If Preview is running I close every window in Preview. This is a kind
of a small hack because AppleScript returns a warning 'missing
value', so I send it to the nirvana.
Both AppleScripts could be replaced by changing tmR.rb directly.
I.e., if tmp_dir is not empty and Preview is running (system(ps -aux
| grep Preview)) then call an AppleScript to close every window.
On the other hand it would be nice to have an easy way to set pdf()'s
'onefile' argument in order to be able to print all plots in one pdf.
Maybe solvable by using a TM variable?
Any comments?
All the best,
Hans
Sorry for the n00b questions, this is all new to me :)
I'm working on the blogger bundle, and saw that when I make end user
changes, those are mirrored into App Support, which rocks!
However, I'm tinkering with the ruby stuff (like I want it to upload
into /images/) just getting my feet wet and really don't want to be
mucking around inside of the app's bundle. Is there any way to
locally override the bundle file in App Support?
Thanks!

I'm trying to put together a grammar and having a hard time getting
the pattern matching right.
The line I'm interested in will be in the following format--
KW: [any text except a percentage sign can go in here] % (fold)
What I want to do is apply the scope comment.line.percentage from the
% sign to the end of the line, and variable.notes to everything in
between KW: and the percent sign. I also want to be able to use
Markdown-style italics within the variable.notes section.
Here is the patterns block as I have constructed it thus far:
patterns = (
{ name = 'comment.line.percentage';
match = '%.*$';
},
{ begin = '^KW:';
end = '% \(fold\)|$';
patterns = (
{ name = 'markup.italic.notes.variable';
match = '\*[^\*]+?\*';
},
);
contentName = 'variable.notes';
},
{ name = 'markup.italic.notes';
match = '\*[^\*]+?\*';
},
);
This does everything correctly except the % (fold) only acquires the
scope of the whole grammar and not the comment scope. Anything
following a percentage sign on a line that doesn't begin with KW: is
matched fine.
Any help on how to construct the grammar to match the end of this
line would be appreciated!

ok it appears this was only tested on WordPress according to the
comments. :)
I duplicated "Category" into "Category MT" and changed the xmlrpc
call to:
blog_id = cred.blog_id
res = [{'categoryName' => cred.username},{'categoryName'=>'two'}]
res = TextMate.call_with_progress(:title => "Fetch
Categories", :message => "Contacting Server “#{cred.host}”…") do
cred.client.call("mt.getCategoryList", blog_id, cred.username,
password)
end
Now I get a list of categories! However they are not posted, because
MT does all of its category stuff with IDs. So more work is involved.
I guess nobody is using the Blogging bundle with MT?
