June 2008 - TextMate - lists.macromates.com

by Scott Spain

Howdy. I'm new here. So far, I really like what I see in TextMate. In other text editors I've worked in, when you select some text and launch the find/replace dialog, the "find" field automatically gets populated with the selected text. Is it possible to set TextMate behave this way? Thanks.

Create Sub-menu In Bundle Editor?

by Scott Spain

I know this one can be done. I've been digging, but can't seem to figure it out. I'm using the bundle editor to create a bunch of snippets. Because I have to create so many of them, I like them categorized. I'm looking to do something similar to what I see in the CSS > Background bundle. That is, a top-level category of snippets, plus sub-menus that contain other snippets. How does one go about setting this up? Thanks. - Scott

Setting up syntax highlighting for python scripts embedded in xml files

by Pedja

Hi, The project I am currently working on requires me to write xml configuration files for a custom application for experience sampling. The files contain embedded python scripts, contained in the following regions: <script event="OnLoad"> <![CDATA[ python script ]]> </script> I know that TextMate is able to deal with embedded regions that have a different language deffinition than the main file (like php and javascript sections in HTML) so I was trying to set this up for XML so I can have proper syntax highlighting for python. So far, though, I have not had any luck with this. I tried adding the following in the xml language definition, both right after the section for embedded java and, when that didn't work, right after the section for CDATA comments, but it doesn't seem to work: { name = 'source.python.embedded.xml'; begin = '<script.*?}>\s*?<!\[CDATA\['; end = ']]>\s*?<script/>'; beginCaptures = { 0 = { name = 'punctuation.section.embedded.begin.xml'; }; }; endCaptures = { 0 = { name = 'punctuation.section.embedded.end.xml'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = 'source.python'; } ); }, This was based on the example for embedded java, but obviously I either didn't understand what the java example does, or I didn't specify the begin and end strings correctly. I also suspect that since there is already a definition for CDATA comments, this needs to be in a specific place to override that definition. Any help with getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. The scripts can be quite long, so having proper syntax highlighting would make things much easier.

Web Preview Problems...

by Brian H

I seem to be having problems with my Web Preview in (Markdown/ MultiMarkdown). I'm trying to use the "Image" link, but the web preview does not show the image, but if I select "Markdown->MultiMarkdown->Generate Output and Open in Browser" it works just fine. I've tried specifying both a full path and a relative path. Also, if I try with the web preview, select "Show Source", save the source to a HTML file, and then open the file, it shows both images just fine. ====CODE==== ## Normal Link Test ## An [example](http://www.google.com/ "Title") ## Image Link Test ## A full path image link: ![Image1](/Users/brian/Desktop/snap-01.png "Image Title") A relative path image link: ![Image2](snap-01.png "Image Title") ====CODE==== ---- Brian H binarynomad(a)gmail.com http://www.binarynomad.com

textmate and fortran

by Praveen C

Hello, I do a lot of programming in fortran and I like textmate. However there are a few small things that dont work properly. In punchcard fortran, comments begin on first column with "c" or "C". Textmate does not indent them correctly. If I cut and paste some existing comments, these get indented. I tried using unIndentedLinePattern = '^\s*[cC]\s*.*$'; in "Indentation Rules" but it does not work. Can somebody help me with this ? Thanks praveen -- http://pc.freeshell.org

Re: Textmate/Latex: Citation Inclusion does not work

Exporting code samples for presentation with CSS

Before I go mad and spend ages re-inventing the wheel, is there something in/for TM that I have missed that would allow me to take a selected code sample and save it in some way that it could be presented in another html page?

Textmate Bundle - Show Scope

Hello Do you have a source code for "Show Scope" action from Textmate bundle? It seems that the newest versions of TM don’t have it.

tm_dialog question (maybe a feature request)

by Trevor Squires

Hey, after tinkering with tm_dialog for a plugin[1] I have come to really wish you could embed an 'html output' webview into a NIB. The idea being that instead of invoking 'returnArgument:your:arguments:' you could invoke 'htmlOutput:your_command:and:arguments:' and display the results directly in the dialog rather than outputting to an enclosing html view. Note that I don't want to do async and then update the dialog with results (to go in a listview perhaps). The process I'm getting results from can take a long time to complete and can generate reams of information so I want to display the partial results as they come in. Obviously you'd need to wire-up the WebView delegates to point to the File's Owner, as well as tell the File's Owner about the WebView and progress indicator etc etc. I tried some cruel hacks by instantiating OakHTMLOutputManager in my nib and wiring it all together. Alas, I could only manage to evaluate a "TextMate.system" calling [[webview windowScriptObject] evaluateWebScript] via bindings. I also managed some other experiments to tell the OakHTMLOutputManager that it was busy (to update the progress control). The only other behavior I cold elicit was some spectacular crashes trying to convince the OakHTMLOutputManager to invoke anything... yeah, I know I'm tinkering with stuff I shouldn't :-) So... my question: is there any way in current TM to achieve my goal (embed html output in a dialog) - perhaps in DIALOG2 (that I haven't looked at yet)? Assuming the answer is 'no' - I'd just like to say that capability could be an excellent bridge between the current tm_dialog+html_output and a full-blown plugin.

Tooltip marginal ligature "bug/improvement" under Leopard

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, there is a very tiny and marginal issue about rendering in the content of the tooltip under Leopard. If I have a string "simplified" (length 10) it will be displayed as "simpliﬁed" (length 9) caused by the used fi ligature. This leads to a small problem if one wants to output a pretty looking table for instance. Under Tiger is that not the case. Is this behaviour switchable? --Hans

some Python thoughts

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, I'm just beginning to like Python ;) Caused by that issue here are some tiny suggestions: Walter Dörwald had the idea to provide exit codes similar to Ruby's exit_codes.rb. This could be integrate in tm_helpers.py à la: def exit_discard(): sys.exit(200) def exit_replace_text(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(201) def exit_replace_document(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(202) def exit_insert_text(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(203) def exit_insert_snippet(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(204) def exit_show_html(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(205) def exit_show_tool_tip(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(206) def exit_create_new_document(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(207) Furthermore tm_helpers' sh(cmd) is not UTF-8 safe. If I'm using e.g. popen("grep 'ä' 'test.txt'") or tm_helpers.sh("grep 'ä' 'test.txt'") I have problems with the codec. I tried several things to encode/decode unicode but no success. Maybe some of you can fix this. I went the way to use popen2. Then I didn't have such problems (?) The next issue is regarding dialog.py. Maybe one could the function 'menu' looking for DIALOG2. If there's DIALOG2 it uses that syntax, if not fall back to DIALOG1. This could also be done for Ruby's ui.rb. Cheers, --Hans

Test

by Allan Odgaard

I moved the mailing list to a new server. I couldn’t migrate individual user settings (other than digest/non-digest) so if you had disabled mail delivery or similar, you’ll have to do that again and if you had a list password, then that is now reset. We may also have lost around 40 subscribers, at least if the number of subscribers in Mailman’s web UI is correct. Also, messages to the list sent in the last 8 hours or so have bounced with “relay access denied”. But other than that, everything went smooth :)

weird bug

by Piero D'Ancona

My TextMate today started acting funny. When some text is represented as italic (e.g., in LaTeX, inside an \emph{THIS TEXT SHOWN AS ITALIC} , the text looks corrupted: some of the caracters are replaced by other characters. If I switch back to non-italic e.g. by changing bundle, everything looks ok. Two funny thngs: 1) not all characters are changed. This \textit{AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA} appears perfect. On the other hand, if I write \textit{EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE} some of the E's are replaced by an upperscore: the 4th, the 8th, 12th AND 13th, etc.periodically 2) if I shift the thing, the position of the corrupted characters remain fixed:i.e., if I write \textit{EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE} (three spaces at the beginning) now the 1st, 5th, etc are changed into an upperscore. Any ideas before I download a fresh copy and reinstall? Thanks Piero

Caching Undo-History?

by Dennis

Hi, is there/could there be a way to cache the undo-history in TM or future TM2 even after closing the programm? Users of laptop computers who prefer the sleep mode instead of shuting down the computer will have the advantage to find their desktops/ workspaces just as they have left them, including undo histrories. They will have the disadvantage that sleepmode will suck empty their batteries, especially when you have a lot of RAM installed. Also this is over the time lowering the life expectancy of your accu set. Sometimes I only use sleep mode because I dont want to loose the changes that I have made in TM (code debugging most of the time)... If Historie would be cached, I then have one reason less to worry about shutting down completely or not. Id be happy if more programs could support such a behaviour, it is convenient and will save at least some resources and energy. Thanks & sincere Dennis

Re: syntax highlighting in perl bundle

by Eric Hsu

> Now what context this bit of grammar is really for I don't know. > From what I can see the other examples I gave don't use above. > Perhaps the original author of this grammar can shed light on this > and make the proper changes. I guess I am the original author, though I haven't worked on it for a while (not since my kids were born!). The svn blame for this piece of the grammar goes to gerti, duff and msheets. Let me say that if we as a Textmate community really want to have distributed editing of these grammars, then we should develop a set of test cases to check if our grammar edits break anything. Maybe one or two documents with a .png of the correct highlighting using a default color scheme. best wishes, Eric -- Eric Hsu, Associate Professor of Mathematics San Francisco State University http://math.sfsu.edu/hsu erichsu(a)math.sfsu.edu

No colors from running command output (Ruby bundle)

by Adam Strzelecki

Hi, I'm recently playing a lot with great Ruby web framework called Ramaze. By default when running my project, Ramaze highlights different event types in the console with different colors. So errors are red, warnings yellow, notices green and so on. This works great when I run my program from the Terminal, but when I run it within TextMate with ⌘R and its output window unfortunately I get no colors. I don't know if it is fault of Ruby bundle or TM internals, but I'd love to see the colors there too, as they help reading logs a lot. Best regards, -- Adam Strzelecki |: nanoant.com :|

How to use Teminal and TextMate in Ruby on Rails

by Takaaki Kato

Hi, This is just a generic question on how you use Terminal and TextMate in developing with Rails. I benefit from the bundles like Ruby, Rails RubyAMP and RSpec. My problem is that I would like to have a few Terminal tabs open for one application. I need one tab for running commands like script/generate or rake tasks. (I know I can use Control- Shift-\ for some tasks, but it feels a bit slow to me.) Another tab is for the server log genarated after `script/server`. And optionally I have a tab open for script/console. If I use Control-Shift-O, the Terminal window opens and `cd` to the current directory. RubyAMP bundle has Control-Command-P for a similar feature. But if I use the same command more than once, a new Terminal window shows up. I would like to have a new tab instead. What I do currently is that: 1) Open the TextMate project file, 2) I use Control-Shift-O to open the Terminal window and find myself in the project directory, 3) run the AppleScript I made to duplicate a tab. My AppleScript is written at <http://samuraicoder.net/applescript_duplicating_tabs_terminal >. This is just a shitty script, simply emulates what I do on keyboards. Is there anybody who can know a much better way? Or would you suggest any better workflow? Takaaki -- Takaaki Kato http://samuraicoder.net

Re: Writing a Book with TextMate

by John Laudun

I *am* writing my current book in TextMate. I won't claim that my way of doing it is *the* way, only the way that I am doing it. First, let me say that you'd be a fool not to look at Scrivener. It's a great app. I just about bought it myself, but I had (1) already spent enough money on trail of the word processing grail and (2) begun to imagine myself enough of a geek to go it on my own (e.g., I already had a way to play QT files from within textmate) I did, however, copy some ideas from Scrivener, as you'll see in the layout of my project folder: (For those who don't want the JPG: /boats /fieldwork /outputs /research /~mss ) As you can see, the book is about boats -- crawfish boats in south Louisiana (if you want to see a picture, there's one on the front page of my website: http://johnlaudun.org/) -- and it's a nonfiction work with different enough, to my mind, kinds of research that I have it broken out into simply research and fieldwork. The tilde (~) puts things at the top of Finder windows, but the bottom of TextMate project drawers. (I don't care, as long as the part where I'm doing writing is easy to find. I use MSS, for manuscript, instead of draft, ymmv.) Most of the mss texts, as you can see, are in Markdown, but that's really MultiMarkdown. I haven't begun to experiment with footnotes just yet -- I'm still early enough in the drafting process that I can play with reference schema -- and Fletcher's footnote implementation is tenuous. (I'm taking a look at Maruku right now, to see if there's anything to learn there.) I have heard the siren call of LaTeX several times now over the years, but I just can't bring myself to do it. I like being able to share my plain text files with non-markup-aware clients and colleagues and that I can then generate RTF files out of them, which is all publishers want. (Most will also take Word documents, but an increasing number are going back to RTF, precisely because of having to deal with Word's noting system is such a pain.) So there are writers who write with TextMate -- check out the impressive ScreenMate some time! -- but I don't know if there's any consensus. I, for one, wish I could go from MMD texts to RTF or PDF with headers and/or footers, but I haven't found a convenient way yet -- and I keep forgetting to see if I can get Prince working on my MBP. I hope that helps. john

another "Ack in project" TextMate plugin.

by Trevor Squires

Hey, a short while back I went looking for a TextMate plugin for ack but the advertised link was dead so I based one off GrepInProject++ (instead of doing something sensible like contact the plugin's author about the dead link...). Anyhow, my own take on "Ack in project" can be found at: http://github.com/protocool/ack-tmbundle/tree/master It does nifty stuff like remember your last 10 searches, allows you to choose word, literal or case insensitive search as well as configure options like whether you want to show context lines, follow symlinks and ignore .ackrc (you can define a .ackrc in your project directory too). I've still got a few things I'd like to improve with it but it's in daily use (on Tiger, will test Leopard shortly). Regards, Trevor -- -- Trevor Squires http://somethinglearned.com

New "Unicode" bundle in the Review trunk

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Dear all, there's a new bundle called "Unicode" in the review trunk. It is meant to be a place where we can gather any kind of scripts, commands, etc. which are related to general Unicode issue, meaning non-ASCII. This should also a place where we can gather scripts related to specific languages like Japanese, Chinese, Greek etc. This bundle is the first stage. How do we separate this bundle is a future task. Thus, if there is someone who already has such scripts or is willing to support, please let us/me know. Up to now there are the following stuff in: - Normalize according canonical (de)composition of accented characters - Delete Diacritics: façadë έ だ => facade ε た - Convert to a similar Unicode Character: type the letter 'c' to get a list of "cçćĉċčƈ¢ɕʗḉ⒞ⓒｃ￠" - Convert to Greek Character: type 'n' to get "ν" - Show Unicode Name: select some letters to get a list of the Unicode names like LATIN SMALL LETTER A I have many other scripts, but I need some time to polish them up. To get this bundle, simply use the Subversion Bundle's checkout http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Review/Bundles/Unicode.tmbundle save this to the Desktop or whatever. I know, to deal with non-ASCII scripts in TM 1.x is a bit tricky, but TM 2.0 will come ;) Cheers, --Hans

Autocompletion

by Teifion Jordan

I know that autocompletion exists in many bundles but requires you to push ecsape to get it up, is there a way to do the following with a bundle? Lets assume I am editing a PHP document and type "s", the bundle (or even better, TM2 ;)) looks up a list of function names and then outputs after the s, the first keyword in the list that starts with "s". However, that extra text is left as selected, if the user continues to type then they will overwrite the text (and it will alter it's guess accordingly) but if the user hits the relevant key, it leaves the selected text in place and puts the caret (I think that's the name) at the end of the word. If it's not possible in a bundle, is there any chance of seeing something like it in TM2? Thanks Teifion –––––––––––––––––– http://woarl.com/blog

How to implement auto-completion for TeX with alt-esc?

by Mojca Miklavec

Hello, I would like to implement auto-completion with alt-esc, in the same way as it works with HTML. <a n[ALT+ESC]> --->generates---> <a name=""> but having a slightly different syntax: \commandname[options1][options2] where I would like to be able to type \commandname [{here's the caret, I press ALT-ESC}] [] and then I would get a list of options, specific for the first argument after \commandname and specific for the first bracket (second bracket has a different set of commands). A sample usage: \definecolor[orangered][r=.9,g=.5,b=0] or \setupcolors[state=start] % could be state=stop In the first case, I want to hit alt-esc in the second pair of bracket, and I want TextMate to offer me the options "r=", "g=", "b=", "c=", "m=", "y=", "k=" (and maybe to give me hint that a number between 0 and 1 has to follow). In the second case I want to hit alt-esc in the first pair of brackets and I want TextMate to offer me a list of options "state=" and "conversion=", and if I choose state=, I want to hit alt-esc again and TextMate should offer me a list of two options "start" and "stop". I know how to write a ruby script that would get command name or current line as the argument, and would return a list of available options, but I don't know what exactly my script needs to return, and I don't know how & where to plug it in. I've seen this in html: #!/usr/bin/env ruby require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/codecompletion" print TextmateCodeCompletion.new( #[%{class=""}, %{id=""}, %{style=""}, %{<img src="/images/"}, %{<img border="0"}, ], TextmateCompletionsText.new(ENV['TM_COMPLETIONS'],{:split=>','}).to_ary, STDIN.read, {:scope=>:html_attributes} ).to_snippet but it's not really clear to me how to experiment with it outside of html. Moreover, the library codecompletion might not be able to handle too complex cases. (I don't really know, I only fear that.) I'm willing to do it for plain TeX + LaTeX + ConTeXt (I'm currently extracting TeX primitives & ConTeXt commands with options, for LaTeX it would work the same way once I get some list of commands), but I need some pointers where to start first. Thanks a lot, Mojca

Python unicode error (was: r8839 (Python)) [reposting]

If I'm using 'sys.__stdout__.write' instead it works. #!/usr/bin/env python # encoding: utf-8 import sys import os a = u"æble" sys.__stdout__.write( a.encode("raw_unicode_escape") ) Cheers, --Hans

Suggested workflows AS3: Flash/Textmate

by Alistair Colling

Hi there, thanks to the list I've managed to get my AS2 projects publishing out of textmate great using MTASC, now I'm trying to do the same with my AS3 projects. I would like to compile my AS3 SWFs direct from Textmate. At the moment I am only building a single SWF as you would get if you published from Flash. I would like to be able to build my graphic assets in Flash then write my code in Textmate and compile from Textmate and view my SWF and trace using Xtrace. Could someone give me some pointers on how to do this, all of the AS3 / Flex bundles seem to want to create a whole Flex application not just the single SWF. If someone could also point me in the direction of a step-by step tutorial for creating Flex Apps in textmate that would be super-handy too as I would also like to learn this at some point.

syntax coloring question

by Eben

Hi, I'm working with some ColdFusion code and am trying to get the syntax highlighting to treat code inside <cfscript> tags the same as it treats code inside <script> tags, like javascript and such... it's not immediately clear how I might accomplish this...? Any suggestions are appreciated. thanks, Eben

RIB Bundle

by Dan Weeks

This is a long shot, but does anyone have a bundle for RenderMan RIB files that they've worked up? Mostly syntax hilighting would be a great start. I just wanted to check before I start in on my own. Thanks. Dan

Bundle command to import from external file

by Ben Smith

I'd like to set-up a command to import text from an external txt/html/ js to a current project but have had no luck finding any tips on how to go about this. Is it possible? I think it would be really handy to have for example a command that pulled in the latest swfobject.js from my SVN repositories. I'm sure this could be useful for lots of other workflow timesavers too.

A long em-dash (and other things)

by Will Robertson

Hello, I've always dreamed about a text editor that will show unicode to me in a slightly more suitable form than what I'm used to. Like a double- width em-dash (assuming fixed width fonts are being used) -- or even a double-width en-dash and a triple-width em-dash -- and visual differentiation between the various invisible characters like no-break space, zero-width joiner, and the half dozen or so extra unicode glyphs that aren't displayed very well in code. While TextMate's "Show Invisibles" does indeed show no-break space, (most of?) the others remain invisible. And em-dash is rather hard to distinguish from en-dash :) Has anyone else ever thought such things before? Certainly I think greater editing support for such unicode glyphs would encourage their use (which, at present, seems rather uncommon). Will
