Every time I creates a tex file and compile it it generates me a bunch of files (.aux etc etc) in the same directory. Now I know that it's not a bundle's fault, doing it from the command line is the same, but is there a way to make the pdflatex command put them somewhere else (a tmp directory)? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Latex-bundle-and-too-many-files-tp23074031p23074031.h… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Best way to copy bundles around?

by siemsen＠ucar.edu

I have two Macs running TextMate 1.5.8. I have some personal bundles that I want to keep in sync between the two machines. I tried this: On machine A, modify a bundle and quit the Bundle Editor to save the bundle. On machine A, reopen the Bundle Editor and drag the bundle to my Desktop. On machine A, scp -r the bundle directory from my Desktop to machine B, into my Desktop. On machine B, double-click the bundle. TextMate says "do you want to update?". On machine B, I click "yes". It seems to work. Yet the bundle on machine B doesn't have the changes that I made while I was on machine A. Any suggestions appreciated. Note that I have MobileMe, and would love to cut down on the manual work that the above (unsuccessful) approach requires. -- Pete

Double-click then drag is too "greedy"

by Dan Wood

Not sure if this is a bug or feature. I've found that the text selection behavior upon double-clicking, then dragging, is way too "greedy" of characters. Is this something that can be fixed, or overrridden? For instance, let's say you double click on the 'doQueryParams' in this snippet of PHP: doQueryParams($query, array() ); .... then drag to the right. Let's say that I want to select up to and including the comma after "$query". Well, I can't - the selection jumps to the end of "array". Other editors like SubEthaEdit or TextEdit do what I would expect -- the non-alpha characters are selected individually, so I can select the comma, the space, and then if I continue on it will select the whole word 'array', then each parenthesis, etc. Is it just me that's driven absolutely mad by this? It really slows me down......

Language Definition Inheritance/Injection (Shoulda/Rails bundle)

by Gabe da Silveira

Even though I'm #1498 I have to admit I'm quite a bundle newbie. One of the issues that I recently came across was that the Shoulda Bundle was not recognizing "context" and "should" blocks within test classes. This is important, because the symbol navigation is extremely useful for these. At first I thought there was maybe a conflict or something else going on, but when I moved these blocks into the root scope of the file they worked. I realized that the shoulda language was built on source.ruby.rails, which meant it wasn't being picked up inside source.ruby.rails.meta.rails.unit_test or source.ruby.rails.meta.rails.functional_test. I solved this problem by adding: { include = 'source.ruby.rails.shoulda'; }, to those definitions within the Rails bundle. However I feel dirty. First, because I'm hacking the Rails bundle to make another bundle work. This seems like it will make upgrading complicated since I don't imagine there is any kind of granularity with language updates. Secondly, it feels wrong for the Rails bundle to define an include of a language that is descended from the Rails bundle itself. Apparently TextMate handles this properly because it works fine, but it was a red flag for me. So I guess my question is am I doing this wrong? What do the bundle gurus have to say on the matter? -- Gabe da Silveira http://darwinweb.net

Re: Things to avoid

by brad tittle

The thing that caused the problem was -- "Edit each line in selection." I was able to edit the file without any problem by just doing a search and replace. I don't know specifically how edit each line in selection works, but I suspect that it involves quite a few Allocs, Like one for each line, possibly quite a few more for each line. I was just putting out a warning that you shouldn't edit the entire file with "Edit each line in selection". It could have just been my computer, but I suspect that I was abusing this wonderful feature into something Allan didn't imagine it to be used to do, because as an expert in line management he would never have gone down the path I did. I was just appending ",END_NOTE" to each line. This happened on a Dual Xeon Core 2 Duo Mac Pro with 1GB of ram ( inherited from our graphics guy who doesn't want to learn FCP).

Web preview and root-relative paths

by Gianni

In my html files I use root-relative paths such as: <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/screen.css" type="text/css" /> The Web Preview does not work even though the path is also relative to the top level of the project, I have to use paths relative to the current document. <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/screen.css" type="text/css" /> Is there some way to get Web Preview to work with root-relative paths for html development? -Gianni

Theming help

by leif halvard silli

Hi. Some questions w.r.t. getting themes to work as I prefer: Firstly, the manual says [1] that "markup.heading.2.html" can be used in a language grammar. And then subsequently one may use that as a selector in a Theme. I have tried to use the mentioned selector in a theme made entirely from scratch, but whatever color I add for that selector, nothing happens to the styling of the <h2> tags or anything. Do I need to update the language grammar for HTML in order to get it to work or what? Secondly, Brilliance Black seems to be one of the richest themes arround, with colors for many languages. It has a HTML section. And below that it has a "markup" section. The markup selection has e.g. "markup.heading" and "markup.bold". I assumed that "markup.bold" would turn <b>text/</b> into bold face. But, no - doesn't happen. I have misunderstood something? Thirdly: Ideally, what I would like to see was a theme were the /text/ changed styling, more than the tags/code around the text. But TextMate appears to only be able to have one color for text, namely that of the "Foreground" color. Am I right? I hope not. Put on an edge, I would much rather have a permant color for tags etc, but differing colors for text, depending of the context. Can TextMate do this? Or may I just forget it at once? (I have used TextMate for a 2-3 years, but I only used the installed themes. And there are many things with it that I have not taken advantage of.)

Working with "$DIALOG", nib and shell

by Matthew Richmond

Greetings TextMate mailing list. Forgive me if this is child's play, i searched the list archives thoroughly before posting. I am trying (for many hours now) to open a .nib file created in Interface Builder using the "$DIALOG" command from a shell script. My general objective is identical to the screencast Allan created in 2006 (http://tinyurl.com/df3m9r). - Open a .nib file - Wait for user to close nib or hit a ok button - pass default parameters to the .nib - capture user input from the .nib to be used later in the .sh file. Currently i am trying to accomplish this with: "$DIALOG" nib --load ~/Desktop/Test2.nib --center --model '{ classPath = "foo"; }' --parameters '{}' That usually opens the .nib window, when i close the window all i get is an integer. Then it usually stops working all together, no matter how many time i try and execute the line of code (control - R) nothing happens, i have tried what Allan suggests in the post "So either press ⌃D to “close” stdin, or give -p '{}' as argument, and things should work as expected." And i cant get it to work, if i trash TextMate prefs and reinstall, it works for a bit more. I am not yet as familiar with Ruby as i would like to be and i have an immediate need to implement this within an existing bundle using shell. The screencast made it look so nice and easy...

Recursive parsing?

by Andreas Pardeike

Hi, last time I asked, this wasn't possible and I did not follow the latest development. So here's my question again: I have a custom html/php dialect. It contains of regions of code that is either html markup or php code. <php>...</php> and <htm>...</htm> Inside a php region, you can use <htm> and inside a markup region, you can use <php> which leads to recursive a structure that is very helpful for programming (at least for me) but harder to colorize, fold or autocomplete correctly. More complex example (outmost default is html markup): <html> <head> <php> echo convert($title); </php> <style> ..... </style> </head> <php> init(); </php> <body> Result: <php> if($someflag) <htm> <table border="0"> <php> foreach $row ($rows) { <htm><tr><td></htm> echo $row; <htm></td></tr></htm> } </php> </table> </htm> </php> </body> </html> Can I customize Textmate so its html and php modules identify my regions? /Andreas Pardeike
