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

Suggestion for the Latex Bundle

by Karl Meyer

Hi, I suggest to add German quotation marks to the Latex Bundle: This can be archieved by adding >> <array> <string>„</string> <string>"</string> </array> << to Latex.tmbundle/Preferences/Miscellaneous.plist and Latex.tmbundle/Preferences/Smart\ Typing\ \(Strings\).tmPreferences under the "highlightPairs" and "smartTypingPairs" sections in each file. Please note that I have limited knowledge on how those bundles work. Applying the changes above worked for me. Kind regards Johannes

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

Keyboard shortcut for moving the focus the Project Drawer to the Editor

by Alessandro Vernet

In the editor, I can do ctrl-tab to move the focus to the Project Drawer. But what shortcut can I use to move it back to the editor? Pressing tab 3 times does the trick, but it doesn't seem very optimal. Any suggestion?

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

Concatenating multiple Files

by marios

Hi, I often have some Project Folders with multiple HTML files. I need a Shell Script to concatenate them all together into one single file, to use in a command. Possibly to strip also Header and Body Tags. File names have consistent naming convention. Any Ideas ? regards, marios
