I've just started using TextMate for perl editing and I noticed today when I opened up a file that this line of code confusing the syntax coloring... if ($link eq '' || $user eq '' || $user =~ / / || $link =~ / /) { ... } TextMate saw a string starting at the first ~ and never stopping. I looked through the bundle and I found what seemed to be the problem here... { name = 'string.regexp.find.perl'; match = '(?<!\\)((~\s*)?\/)(\S.*?)(?<!\\)(\\{2})*(\/)'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.string.perl'; }; 5 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.string.perl'; }; }; }, The \S there is matching any non-whitespace character so it doesn't like the space character being used between the //. I changed that match line to this and it seems to have fixed it for me... match = '(?<!\\)((~\s*)?\/)([\S| ].*?)(?<!\\)(\\{2})*(\/)'; Is there any reason that's not a wise change to make? Thanks for any info, Dallas

SVNMate

by Ciarán Walsh

Hi all, I think I’ve finally managed to get a statically linked build of SVNMate working, which means that it should work on any system without problems. Maybe. Apologies if you tried to install it previously and had problems. Download at the same place: http://ciaranwal.sh/2007/10/10/svn-plug- in-for-textmate Ciarán

LaTeX Typeset & View: feature request

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi, would it be possible to add support to the chktex semantic LaTeX checker? it's a nice program that checks for structural errors in the latex file and is able to spot errors in many situations (unmatched braces etc). It is more advenced than lacheck and last version 1.6.3 compiles perfectly on Mac OSX. The ideal would be to produce an HTML view with links to the offending lines (and to have an additional button "Chktex" alongside "Re-Run pdflatex"... etc Thank you, Piero

TMTOOLS plug-in 0.9 release (for testing!)

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, I 'finished' the recoding of TMTOOLS. If someone has a bit time please give me a feedback about the functionality, bugs, wishes, etc. Please note: The version 0.9 is still beta, i.e. please be careful while testing it. By myself I use it every day while working, and it helps me a lot; at least for me ;) I also wrote a tentative help file for it very quickly. To install the plug-in download it, uncompress it, and double-click it. http://email.eva.mpg.de/~bibiko/downloads/textmate/ TMTools.tmplugin.zip (111kB) (it should be universal - if not please give me a hint) For help have a look at this page (utf-8 encoded!) http://email.eva.mpg.de/~bibiko/downloads/textmate/tmtoolshelp.html or type in an empty TM document (after installing ;): "$TMTOOLS" help me and press CTRL+R A short demo: http://www.bibiko.de/TMTOOLS_demo_01.mov (10MB) Up to now TMTOOLS contains 106 shell commands which interact with TM. some examples: "$TMTOOLS" get windowOriginAndSize "$TMTOOLS" get currentWord '{only=tail;delimiter=" ():.";}' "$TMTOOLS" set spellCheckerLanguage '{to=en_GB;}' "$TMTOOLS" set windowSize '{width=100;height=200;}' "$TMTOOLS" set grammar '{to="Ruby";}' "$TMTOOLS" call template '{name="From Clipboard";}' "$TMTOOLS" show projectDrawer '{onEdge=0;}' "$TMTOOLS" complete usingDictionary '{lang="da";showInternalListFirst=yes;}' "$TMTOOLS" use nsstring '{initWith="たてもの"; toGet="canBeConvertedToEncoding:"; with="8"; }' The command "$TMTOOLS" do onKeyDownAfterDelay is still experimental. I tested it a lot, and it works. This command installs an event manager which will execute any shell command after a delay of X seconds if no other keyDown event occurs within X seconds. The following example will save the current document in /tmp after 5sec if there is no further key pressed. (A kind of AutoSave function while non-typing) If one presses ESC (stopkey=53) one destroys that event handler. For more details see help. Furthermore it can be used to display suggestions for the code completion à la XCODE (see demo). "$TMTOOLS" do onKeyDownAfterDelay "{ delay="5"; repeat=no; startAtCall=no; shell='\"$TMTOOLS\" get textString > /tmp/\"$TM_FILENAME \".txmtbkp;say \"document was saved\"'; stopkey=53; }" Best, Hans

Rails bundle status, and a snippet for rails test fixtures.

by Rick DeNatale

Hi, I finally got a macbook and Textmate about a month ago, primarily for ruby/rails development. I looked at the various screencasts, and the one on the rails bundle shows some features like the mdct (migration drop and create table) and mrac (migration remove and add column) which use schema.db to generate code in the migration's down method to recreate the table or column being dropped or removed. The rails ruby bundle which came with TextMate doesn't seem to have these. I did find what seems to be the bundle demoed on the screencast at the syncPeople web site, and installed it, but it seems to replace the 'standard' bundle which came with TM (the names differ though). What's the status of this/these bundles? By the way, I wrote another mini-bundle which has one command which is a 'magic' snippet for adding an item to a rails test fixture. It also works by reading db/schema.db The code for the command in the bundle can be found in an article on my blog. I had planned to add the bundle as a resource to the article, but it seems that typo(my blog engine) doesn't seem to support uploading bundles. The article is at http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/articles/2007/10/09/my-first-serious-tex… I'd appreciate any feedback on this textmate command. -- Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/

(Maybe a feature request) AUTOSCRIPTS on events

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, I wonder if it would be possible to tell TM (2.0) to execute a specific tmCommand on some events like: -TM starts : execute a autostart script -TM quits : before quitting execute a script -TM looses its focus to an other App -TM gets the focus -for each TMPROJ, specify an autostart script and a shutdown script Maybe also: onRightMouseDown onLeftMouseDown etc. This behaviour could be set in TM's Preference. Esp. if one develop a plug-in for TM one has to restart TM very often, and it would be nice if my window settings (code documents, bundle editor opens with the last edited item, etc.). I tried to write a plug-in for that, but for me it's a bit tricky. I got rid of onOtherMOuseDown, etc. but to start a script if TM starts, well I have no idea to do that because no document is open if the plug-in will be initialized. Or has someone an idea?

TMTOOLS and Dialogs written in HTML

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, I don't know if someone else is interested in this, but the TMTOOLS plugin has very nice side-effect ;) Now I can write quite easily my own dialog/menu/monitor in HTML, meaning a tmCommand with output 'ShowAsHTML', with my favorite tasks. see demo: http://www.bibiko.de/TM_HTMLDIALOG.mov (1.5MB) --Hans

pdfsync question

by Adam R. Maxwell

I've been using pdfsync with Skim, and notice that every time I hit the key combo for pdfsync in TM, Skim reloads the document (this is obvious because Skim now displays a progress sheet). Would it be possible to avoid telling Skim to revert the document unless it's actually changed? That would speed up syncing quite a bit, I think. Skim's displayLine command should handle opening it if necessary, also. If I stare at textMate.py a bit more I might be able to figure it out on my own. thanks, Adam

LaTeX bundle requests

by Guido Governatori

I was a long-standing user of emacs for my LaTeX documents, and I have recently switched to TextMate, but I miss some features of emacs. In particular: pressing TAB in an environment (or in math mode, or inside parenthesis) move the cursor out of the environment (math mode, parenthesis). In addition pressing tab when in sub/superscrit takes the cursor out of the superscript and removes the curly brackets if the sub/superscript contains a single character. For inserting symbols I were used to the RefTeX way, i.e., pressing a key (` in the original setting and ! in my customisation) followed by a letter produces a (LaTeX) symbol. So for example typing !a produces \alpha and !A produces \forall. I wonder if there are ways to replicate the behaviours in TextMate.

Date snippet for Latex

by Gildas Hamel

I'd like to automate the date entries for a journal I write in "LaTeX" and have come up with this snippet: \subsection{${1:`date +%A`, `date +%d` `date +%B` `date +%Y`}} which gives me the date as follows in my files (example): \subsection{Wednesday, 10 October 2007} It works--that is, it gives me the spaces I want between the elements of the date, but it looks cumbersome to me to invoke the date command repeatedly to get these spaces and I wonder if someone could supply a more elegant way to get the same result. Thanks. --Gildas Hamel
