Something like Autotext is def what I'm looking for. I have a problem and a question however. Question: is there a way to integrate this so it's globally accessible so I don't have to change the language of a Java or Javascript file in order to use it? My problem is I'm receiving an error and it's not working. I've attached a screenshot. I looked through the files for Autotext and don't see where (or even what) the problem might be, maybe someone can help? Thanks again for all your ideas and help...

Re[TxMt] mote editing of projects

by dakarp

I am currently a user of BBEdit. I'd like to be able to use TextMate if I could find a combination of an SFTP client and TextMate that would allow me to edit multiple files remotely as a project (grouped in the same window, with the drawer). Is there a combination of programs that will allow this? Working locally is not an option because the dev environment includes a huge MySQL database, among other things. But if I could work locally in a way that immediately and automatically updated remotely, that might be OK. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Remote-editing-of-projects-tp15053548p15053548.html Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

bug - TM's Web Preview won't update from linked Css stylesheet

by Steven Rowat

Greetings, I've been using TextMate for several months, and I'm now starting my first multi-file project using the TextMate project interface. I've encountered what appears to me as a substantial bug (see title). I opened a ticket with a full description last week, but have received no reply so far. Here's the "Summary" from the start of that ticket: "Summary: At first, TM's Web Preview reads linked css stylesheet in the HTML header correctly, but then will not update when the stylesheet is changed. Browsers don't have this problem and show the new data as expected. (TM Web Preview seems to get 'stuck' using its original cached value, even when those values no longer exist in the css file. ) " Here's the full description, including my Troubleshooting attempts and exact steps to reproduce the bug: http://macromates.com/ticket/show?ticket_id=79950679 In addition I'm puzzled by the fact that I've found an exact description of the bug reported in this list in 2006. And there are no replies to that report either! Strange. Doesn't anyone besides me need to use the (wonderful) Live Web Preview with linked external style sheets? Or am I missing some hidden command or path configuration that will allow this to work? Best Regards, Steven Rowat

screencasts // missing shown features

by Dennis Amrouche

Hi as posted yesterday Im new to Textmate. So like any other 'beginner' I stuck to the screencasts first, trying to adopt what is shown there. Yesterday I posted that self-closing tags wont be done by the key- command [crtl] + < Akos kindly answered today I have to set a new variable for this action. This has not been shown in the screencast. Now Im trying to autocomplete the insertion of a doctype, but again no shortcut will bring what is shown in the screencast. A.) Have features changed since the screencasts have been recorded? This is kind of confusing ... because screencasts are meant to beginners. B.) Is it possible to have more screencasts in general to bring the folks into stuff? That woud be great, so learning by watching is quite more confortable and faster. (And I guess its even faster for the authors to record a screencast on certain issues rather than writing about them) Thnx in advance! ------------------ Dennis

Can't install Edit in Textmate package

by pdenlinger

I have just tried to install the "Edit in Textmate" package. When I tried and failed, I got an error message which reads: sh: tail: command not found Error The input manager (/Contents/Resources/Edit in Textmate) was not found in the Textmate application bundle. You may need a newer version of Textmate. I don't understand why this happens; I have just downloaded and paid for Textmate recently. I'm also having trouble setting up the terminal command so that I can open Textmate using the "mate" command; the default links do not show up in the Enhanced Terminal Usage wizard box. If I were to navigate to the /usr/bin directory, which directories should I link to in order to set it up? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Can%27t-install-Edit-in-Textmate-package-tp15392164p1… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

PHP tag on first line of file trips up HTML bundle

by Nathan Duran

I've been wrestling with this one for a bit and I can't seem to find the right combination of bundle edits to make things work the way I think they should. When using PHP, it is oftentimes necessary to place a "<?php" tag right at the beginning of the file, as any leading whitespace will render the header() function useless. Unfortunately, whenever I open such a file in TextMate, it is not recognized as HTML. There's no syntax highlighting, no autocompletion, nothing. Getting rid of the opening PHP block, or simply inserting a space in front of it sets everything right, but then the script obviously stops working. The HTML bundle has two separate patterns declarations pertaining to PHP, one which requires leading whitespace, and another which does not. Mucking around with these patterns has yielded no improvements, and I'm not sure where else to look at this point. Find doesn't work in the bundle editor, and hitting the "Test" button or reloading bundles makes you lose your place in the file, so trial-and-error is an especially painful process here. The handful of search terms I could come up with didn't turn up anything, so I'm looking to see if anyone has any suggestions. Thanks

Problems printing with line numbers using TextMate bundle

by John Laudun

I'm trying to teach myself the basics of programming -- I'm working with Python -- and one of the things I'm doing is going over extant scripts that I find useful to see how they do what they do. One of the scripts I'm interested in is pwyky, and so I wanted to print out the file but I need line numbers to help me keep track of where I am. No problem. Textmate has that in its eponymous bundle! But when I run it, I get the following dialogue error in the preview window: sh: ps: command not found Received exception:TextMate::AppPathNotFoundException I checked the first level code in the Bundle Editor, but this has to be somewhere in one of the Ruby scripts, but I am shy about digging in there. Any help would be appreciated. john

[Blogging bundle] Request specific post by ID

by Steven Harms

I love the blogging bundle, and the primary 'fetch' use case would be to fetch within the last n-many posts, in the Blogging bundle, the value of n is a nice and sensible 20. BUT What if I decided that I wanted to go back and edit something from a *long time* ago. Could I somehow retrieve the post via the bundle either by slug or by unique ID? Steven

repeated problems with Latex

by Christopher Brewster

I love textmate and the integration with latex but again and again it just stops working. Current incarnation of the problems is the following: 1. In a multifile document (thesis) I edit one sub-document and recompile (ctrl-r) and the message I get is: "Latexmk: All targets (ClassicThesis2.pdf) are up-to-date" - I have tried compiling from the master document - same result. - I have tried 'trash aux files' and same result 2. Separate problem (earlier on): I am using skim, and in the past when I would compile in Textmate, it would pop into focus. Now all it does is bounce in the dock. Also again and again the window comes up asking if it should automatically update the file. Any suggestions appreciated.

New R Bundles for testing

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Dear R users, in the last weeks I've looked for a better R integration into TM. Finally I came up with these three bundles: 1) R In principal I rewrote all commands to be more flexible and to avoid to call R to get some information (except for the command 'Tidy'). I.e to show e.g. a function signature/help/insert a function parameter/completion etc. the command will look for it within R's help file system. This is not only faster but also one has now access to all installed packages. In addition to that these commands also parse the entire R script for function declarations. Please note if a command using that index will be invoked for the first time or if you deleted or installed a package the index file will be rebuilt, and this takes some milliseconds. I also fine-tuned Rmate. Now all plot are displayed inside of the output window as thumbnails (click on it to open; drag it to save it as pdf). Furthermore now it is also possible to send a very large R script to Rmate. By using the old approach Rmate's pipe overflowed. 2) R Console (Rdaemon) I fine-tuned the entire Rdaemon. I used it many days and it turned out it's stable, fast, and you're more flexible once you understood the underlying philosophy. In other words it makes really fun. Of course, R is rather complex and I'm sure that I missed some things. 3) R Console (R.app) In that bundle you will find all commands to remote the standard R.app. Both Console bundles are extensions to the R bundle, meaning they make usage of commands, snippets, etc. defined in the R bundle. For each bundle I tried to write an help file. In beforehand sorry for my terrible English, it's fast written and not yet proof-read. The best thing to start is to read the help file and have a look at the bundle menus. !!VERY IMPORTANT!! Before installing these bundles please backup the 'old' R bundle (maybe, what I did is a flop ;) and delete the bundles R and - if it exists - Rdaemon; quit TM; start TM; and then install the new bundles. All these bundles have beta status. Thus I would be very appreciated if someone could test them and give me any feedback regarding: -what doesn't work -what is illogical or unclear -bad arrangement or key binding -what's missing/wrong/unclear in the help file ... plus what Mac OSX version, ppc or intel, which R version If Allan is back I will upload the new R bundle to the repository and both Console bundles to the test repository. Cheers, Hans
