This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere online that I can find, so: Allan informed me on IRC that the mate command doesn't work from inside screen in Leopard. All is not lost, however. I discovered that if you install screen via MacPorts (I had to 'port sync' first, then 'port install screen'), you can use the mate command from inside screen with no problems. Hopefully this will save someone else a few minutes of fruitless searching. - Andre

anbody working on better Erlang support ?

by Roberto Saccon

I just started with Textmate: http://www.rsaccon.com/2007/10/erlang-and-textmate.html Searching the mail archive shows very little posts about Erlang. I would like have better erlang support and I am interested in contributing to get there. Anybody has done something with textmate and Erlang and has some Experiences to share, anybody just thinking about it and has thoughts to share ? Or just advice to put me in the right direction to get started ? (the howtocontribute-Wiki-entry I have read already) What I would like to have is Emacs/Distel like Erlang integration, for example a keybinding for compiling/reloading the current sourcefile and in case of errors keybinding to jump to the first/next error. With Emcas I wrote some elisp hack just to integrate things better into my workflow, I hope that can be done for textmate/erlang as well regards -- Roberto Saccon http://rsaccon.com

Code folding for Python?

by Sean Schertell

Hi Guys, Please forgive me if this has been asked and answered before... But is there any way to fold your code normally when using TM for Python? In my experience, the arrow appears where you'd expect it to, but stubbornly refuses to do anything at all when clicked. Any tips from my fellow Pythonistas? :=) Sean :::: DataFly.Net :::: Complete Web Services http://www.datafly.net

newbie question about text snippets

by jan＠gocom.ca

I am trying to find out how to insert an existing applescript into a snippet or perhaps a more elegant solution to inserting variables into snippets. Perhaps I need to explain: I have many variations of boilerplate text that I use dozens of times during the day in my work that require a variable input in certain places. While I am not a programmer, I am all for automating repetitive tasks and I'm not afraid of a little scripting. A little. Some of the stuff in those bundles looked downright scary. I was kindly directed to use the tab stops for snippets like this: ________________________________________________ Hello ${1:firstname} Thank you for your order for a ${2:product} ________________________________________________ Perfect. Easy. The next part, though, is to give me more control over the values I am inserting. For example, I have been using BBedit (which does the job but I don't particularly like) and in their "clippings" you can insert a placeholder that can call up an applescript to run. Even this is awkward compared to the simple way that NoteTabPro worked for me for 10+ years in windows before I switched to a mac - I could create 'clips' in it that would insert boilerplate text and at any placeholders, I could include dialog boxes to type in a value or choose it from a list. I sat here for 6 hours today trying to see how I can do this or something like it in TextMate - and I found programming languages that I will never use, and syntax for them that I am utterly stumped by. Can anyone help me? Janet

C functions not getting tagged correctly?

by Matt Fago

I saw an old message on GMANE "Re: C syntax fixes" regarding this issue. I guess much of the patch did not get applied? There seem to be a very significant issues (for me anyhow) with the current C syntax parser: 1) Multiple line function definitions are not tagged as functions, e.g., int test(int a, int b) { ... } This is unfortunately very common with functions with large numbers of arguments. 2) Less importantly, simple macros such as #define __MY_HEADER_H are also getting listed in the function pull-down. Does anyone have a patch for this that could get pushed into SVN? I have yet to grok the syntax of C plist etc, but this is driving me insane. Thanks, Matt

Matt, thanks for these directions. The GetBundles bundle worked beautifully. - Dushan

Latex Watch previewers' strange behavior on Leopard

by Gildas Hamel

I installed os-x 10.5 last weekend. Since then, when using TextMate 1436 and LatexWatch, I observe the following behavior: the pdf preview window, in TeXShop, doesn't gain focus and refresh until I click on it: it then refreshes . If I switch to Skim as previewer, no refresh even with clicking on the Skim window to give it focus. I had been using both for several months, without any problem whatsoever. Here is the console line I get regarding TeXShop as previewer: 10/29/07 10:03:11 AM TextMate[177] loadPlugIn: Dialog plug-in with same bundle identifier (com.macromates.dialog_plug-in) already loaded With Skim, I get the following window message: Unable to read notes for ~/Documents/Work/Writing/Journal/2007/July.pdf, but a Skim notes file with the same name was found. Do you want Skim to read the notes from this file? I click OK, but Skim doesn't refresh, though I have "check for file change" preference on (and have restarted everything). Here is the console reading concerning Skim: 10/29/07 10:24:14 AM TextMate[888] loadPlugIn: Dialog plug-in with same bundle identifier (com.macromates.dialog_plug-in) already loaded 10/29/07 10:24:26 AM Skim[926] .sdef error: Operation could not be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 1549.) 10/29/07 10:24:26 AM Skim[926] line number: 2 I have sent as detailed a description I could to Apple Software/Support but thought I could get some help from the LateX people on TextMate. --Gildas Hamel

Can't get Textmate to use Skim as a PDF viewer

by Bill McNeill

My Mac Mini is configured to use Skim as the PDF viewer called from Textmate's LaTeX bundle, however I still view compiled .PDF files inside Textmate. I need help configuring Textmate so that it will automatically launch Skim. Intel Mac Mini OS X: 10.4.10 Textmate version: 1.5.7 (1436) I have the following Textmate environment variables set in Preferences->Advanced->Shell Variables: TM_LATEX_ERRLVL 1 TM_LATEX_COMPILER latexmk.pl TM_LATEX_VIEWER Skim Skim Version: 0.9.3 (v15) Skim has Prefereces->Sync "Check for file changes" checked and the Preset set to "Textmate". I am using fink's LaTeX distribution. Skim works. It is my default .PDF viewer in Finder. I can use it to open and view .PDF files. If I successfully compile a LaTeX document in Textmate using apple-R, the compiled .PDF file appears in the "Typeset and View" window owned by Textmate instead of a Skim process. I have another computer, a Mac Book, that as far as I can tell is configured identically. On this machine, Textmate launches Skim as its .PDF viewer as expected. I'm out of ideas on how to debug this. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help. -- Bill McNeill http://staff.washington.edu/billmcn/index.shtml

Bug in Ruby Bundle ctrl-{ snippet? (was Re: [TxMt] Ctrl key and shortcuts cease working)

by Rick DeNatale

I've noticed some ctrl-key snippet wierdness in the Ruby Bundle. Until the latest update, the ctrl-{ snippet to toggle blocks between {} and do;end forms either didn't work at all, or worked intermittently. I believe that this broke with the previous cutting-edge update some weeks ago. I just checked for updates, and I'm running 1436 as well, although the latest version mentioned when I view the release notes is 1435. Since Matt reported the problem with version 1436, I tried the snippet just now, and here is how this line of ruby code: a.each { | f| f } evolves after a sequence of pressing ctrl-{ with the cursor after either the { or do as appropriate. a.each do | f| f end a.each { |; f| f } a.each do |; f| f end a.each { |;; f| f } On 10/29/07, Matt Freels <matt(a)furtherin.net> wrote: > I just ran into a problem where after the recent update (version > 1436), all of TM's shortcuts involving the ctrl key broke. > > All of the emacs-like keybindings seem to still work, though. > > I've tried resetting all of the preferences i could think of > including a new user account. -- Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/

Theme colors messed up in last update

by Yann B

Since the last update, my HTML colors are messed up if I have some php at the top of the page, everything else after that is treated as "embedded source" from the "fonts & color" pref pan. If I just put: <?php ?> on top, it's fine, but if I put something like: <?php require_once('_php/some_file.php'); ?> The everything under is just a big chunk of the same color... Anyone else got that? And found a way to fix it... Any suggestion much appreciated. Thanks! - Yann .........................................
