Automaticly open documents in project drawer

by Dijk van Marc

Dear all, I'm working on a bundle in which their is a command that takes the current document and splits it in several new ones based on a set of criteria. What I would like is for all those new documents that result from the splitting procedure to be displayed in a project drawer (even if the original document was not part of any project). The new files will probably not yet been saved to disk so that's something the user has to do. If any of you can give me suggestions on how to do this I would appreciate it. Thanks, Marc

Python Bundle Problem - uncaught signal #11 after...

by Michael Dewar

Hello, I've just got back from holiday to find a TextMate update! After performing the update - so I'm now at Version 1.5.8 (1498) - my Python scripts no longer run when I hit cmd-R. The error is: Program terminated by uncaught signal #11 after 6.26 seconds. Followed by a Mac OS X "The application Python quit unexpectedly" dialogue box. I can replicate the problem by creating a file with the following command: from scipy import special (which imports a bunch of slightly odd functions from the scientific python library, and which can take a few seconds) and then running the "Run Script" command in the Python bundle. Running "from scipy import special" in both the python and ipython terminals, and running the above file from the command line all work fine. Can anyone help? I've re-installed Textmate after deleting all the Library folders I could find, and I've re-installed the Python bundle from svn. Other scripts work fine, which gives me the impression that something is timing out, but that's really just a vague impression... Cheers, Mike Dewar

question for language completion or php bundle maintainers: behavior deleting a snippet element

by Timothy Bates

The completion for languages is very helpful, so: ex<option-esc> --> explode(string separator, string str, [int limit]) Currently backspacing on a snippet component like "[int limit]" leaves a broken fn call (unwanted trailing comma), i.e: explode(string separator, string str,) Is it possible to alter the generated snippets so that when the user backspaces on a snippet element in function calls like this, the comma preceding the unwanted parameter is also eaten, i.e.? explode(separator, str${1:, ${2:[int limit]}}) instead of explode(separator, str, ${2:[int limit]}})

idea for macro snippets

by Timothy Bates

It would be great if textmate's macro's were editable and buildable from the history of events: store each event as a list item, allow it to be named, copied, added to a library of snippet components, and deleted from a macro. Often we do things we wish to repeat, but not exactly as they were done (usually there are inefficiencies (like copying some text to be used for replace) which often break the macro as a repeatable sequence, but if I could choose "macro... from prior actions", then see a list like 1. copy 2. find and replace (find = <str>, replace = <str>, regex=TRUE) 3. switch documents 4. copy 5. paste 6. copy 7. find and replace (find = <str>, replace = <str>, regex=TRUE) And then delete all but 2 and 7... bingo: just the events needed

Re placing a space with an underscore in Snippet

by Ian Alexander Wood

Hello. I am a newcomer to the world of Textmate having previously designed websites with Dreamweaver. I love the snippet functionality and have set about creating loads of my own snippets for speedy XHTML coding. I've hit a small snag whilst trying to get a regular expression to reproduce text in two places in my snippet. The problem I am having is trying to tell it to replace any spaces with say an underscore _ character. Forgive me if this is easy to do, I am quite new to Regular Expressions and I'm still feeling my way! Here is the offending snippet: <form action="${1:${TM_FILENAME/(.*?)\..*/$1_submit/}}" method="${2:post}" accept-charset="utf-8"> <fieldset id="${6:${3/[[:alpha:]]+|( )/(?3:_:\L$0)/g}}" ${4:class="${5:}"}> <legend>${3:enter form name}</legend> $0 <button type="submit">submit</button><br/> </fieldset> </form> So placeholder number 3 is the legend name and also populates the fieldset ID. I can easily change the ID manually if it contains spaces, but I thought it would be really cool if it would just replace them automatically with an underscore instead. Any help would be much appreciated!

puzzling command output with Tool Tips and l/

by Jon Stewart

Howdy, I've got a weird bug displaying file paths in Tool Tips as output from shell commands. The bug is that if a directory in a path ends in an 'l' (el, not one), then both it and the slash are elided in the Tool Tip display. For example, I have a simple bundle command that executes "git status" (that's it; nothing more) and writes the output to a tool tip. In the example below, I've modified a file named "clusters.py" in a sub-directory named "util" (i.e. "util/clusters.py"). The tool tip output of the path will be "uticlusters.py", like this: # On branch master # Changed but not updated: # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) # # modified: uticlusters.py If I execute "git status" from the terminal, I get the correct "util/clusters.py": # On branch master # Changed but not updated: # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) # # modified: util/clusters.py I have had this problem before with other commands, so it's not specific to git. If I tell the output to go to a New Document or to Insert As Snippet, then the missing "l/" in the paths show up (using the same bundle commands). So, it appears to be something weird about the output going to a Tool Tip. Is there some kind of markup happening in Tool Tips? Any help is much appreciated -- I'm afraid I'm a bit out of my league in this issue. Jon

Keyboards and what fingers

by Scott Haneda

Keyboard shortcuts and what fingers? Hello, been using TM for a litle white now, slowling moving over from BB. There is a much stronger emphasis on keyboard shortcuts, I was hoping someone could help me out a little. I can find data online with regard to what fingers go where for alphanumeric keys, the option, command, and control keys are largely not talked about, especially when used in combination. I do tend to work on the left side of the board, since sometimes I move to a laptop, and it is missing control and option on the right. I also use the caps lock as a control, but would not want to rely on that for being able to move around as well. "Control Shift <" is is a good example. I am using thumb on control and ring on shift, then the right hand for the less than. This is a bit of a stretch, and probably will be bad over time. Maybe index on control and middle on shift would be better? That combo them requires me to move my entire wrist down to hit it, which I wh Or is there some strict rules for ergonomics and RSI prevention that puts a specific finder on a specific key like the alphanumerics? Some of these are just hard for me to hit. Control-Option-Shift-H is a good example, though I only need to use it once. Any suggestions on how you have all adapted to an app that must use keyboard shortcuts to truly become powerful, would be apprecitated. Thanks. -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

[Xcode Bundle] Bug when running a target

by Jonas Huckestein

Hello everybody, I just spent a few hours wrsetling with a strange bug, so I thought I'd let you know. In run_xcode_target.rb the command for executing shell programs is built in line 295. The environment variables DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH are set. Instead of setting them, the new directories should be appended. In my case this caused some of the libraries I was using to spawn random malloc errors, I guess that is, because macports uses these paths. I don't know what happened exactly, but changing the command to appending the new paths instead of setting them solved my problem and sounds more reasonable anyway. What do you think, Cheers, Jonas
