Re: newbie question.. How compile source code for dialog2 and install it?

by MDX-LE

During my "gentle" introduction to Terminal in OSX, I was introduced to perl. perl #!ed my brain so hard %-|, that without much introduction, I chose to learn python because I thought it gave so much better ! for the $ (bang for the buck) without help from hard core programmers. =^D Now am trying to learn textmate and got stumbled on Ruby. Sure it sounds a lot of fun to learn a new language. But is there a way to use UI in python scripts within TM? May be my question is a bit precocious because I just found a textmate podcast series on itunes that has 2 podcasts on dialog2 in TM.

env: ruby: Permission denied

by Xavier Tricoche

As of late (last month or so), I keep getting this error message every time I try to run basic bundle operations that use ruby under the hood. A typical example is "comment out" (apple-slash) (in C++ or Latex bundle) that replaces the corresponding text section with the error message. I read the posts on this problem that date back to 2006 and could not solve the problem. I am running the latest version of Textmare (Version 1.5.8 (1498)) and a very recent version of ruby. 'which ruby' followed by Ctrl-r yields: /usr/local/bin/ruby ls -lh /usr/local/bin/ruby gives me: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 13K Jun 4 15:04 /usr/local/bin/ruby and /usr/local/bin/ruby -v produces: ruby 1.9.1p129 (2009-05-12 revision 23412) [i386-darwin9.7.0] I tried everything I could think of, including reinstalling Textmate, reinstalling ruby, and setting explicitely the TM_RUBY shell variable but to no avail. Thanks in advance for any insight into the cause of this problem. Xavier

Texmate 2

by Scott Haneda

This hit the front page of reddit today, thought it would be good to let the list know about it. I found it to be a well written piece and keeps me happy moving forward. http://blog.macromates.com/2009/working-on-it/ There are a good deal of comments on the blog as well as reddit about the no pay for version 2 issue. I am more or less in the camp of "charge for version 2", especially if the lack of a charge is in any way adding to a lack of motivation to get 2 out the door. That being said, I do not believe it would be wise to go against a statement made in the past that version 2 would be a free upgrade. Remember, there is nothing stopping any of us from just buying version 2 outright when it comes out if that is the direction you want to go in. This may skew stats a little on new users, versus upgrade users which could be undesirable. My suggestion, when this day comes, simply make version two require a checkout process, to get a new serial, and charge $0.00 to whatever you feel it is worth. Personally, if version 2 solves a good deal of my needs that are lacking in version 1, I will be donating one way or another, $100.00 for my copy. I pay my mortgage, dinners, clothes, and the rest of my life as a result of TextMate, $100.00 is a small price to pay for making it easier for me to make a living. Thank you for coming forward with a new plan to keep users updated on the progress. It has been long overdue, though users are generally forgiving. I also feel, the most vocal, that make a lot of noise, are probably a very small percentage of the true count of the user base. Yay for 2.0 news! Very nice to know at least one person is using 2.0 on a daily basis as well. Have a nice end of the weekend to you all. -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

Javascript Reformat Tabs/Indent

by Owen Densmore

Hi folks. I'm starting to get into javascript, and am having problems with the Reformat Document (Beautify) command. I want soft tabs of 2 spaces. I read in a .js file, with the 2 space indentation, and call the Reformat Document. It alas, does not use the current 2 space soft tabs, but defaults to 4. Yet if I edit the file, the auto indent correctly uses the 2 space indent. So clearly the tab setting I use (bottom of textmate, tabs menu) is used by the auto-indent, but apparently not for Reformat Document. What am I doing wrong?! Is there a textmate/javascript variable or preference that needs to be set? Should the tabs menu control both the auto-indent and Reformat? -- Owen

Cmd+left/right not going to beginning/end of line on SnowLeopard GM1

by Benjamin Nham

Hi everyone, I just upgraded to SnowLeopard GM1 and cmd+left/right no longer seem to go to the beginning/end of lines. I'm not sure if this is Apple's fault or TextMate's fault, but other apps that use standard Cocoa editing controls in GM1 (i.e. TextEdit) seem to work fine with cmd+left/right. Is anyone else experiencing this? I know you can use ctrl+a/e to get to the beginning and end of lines, but I prefer to use the cursor keys. Thanks, Ben

Re: Texmate 2

by minimal design

I know it's silly but I'd rather keep my serial number that shows I've been using TM from the early beginning... So I'd prefer a donation option or some sort of custom upgrade path than buying a brand new license... I said it was silly!

Is it possible to go back?

by amaslov

Hi there! Is there any way in TextMate to navigate back to the previous cursor position? In VIM I use "CTRL-O" to go back and "TAB" to go forward in command mode. Thanks a lot in advance!

Select and Replace: magic needed....

by Nicholas Cole

Dear All, Many years ago, in a state of innocence, I hard-coded my LaTeX quotation marks. > Thus I have text that `looks like this'. I now find that it would have been MUCH better (if not essential) to have done: > Thus I have text that \enquote{looks like this} I can't do a search and replace, because there is no algorithm that will get the quotes right, but I would like to be able to do the following: 1. Select the text that needs changing with the mouse 2. Hit a key and have the text changed to the \enquote version. I feel like this ought to be the sort of thing that TextMate excels at. How should I do it? Very best wishes, Nicholas

Font line-height fix: New build coming?

by Andrew Jaffe

Hi all, I understand from the text accompanying the font "Anonymous Pro" <http://www.ms-studio.com/FontSales/anonymouspro.html> that we should expect a new build which will take care of some problems associated with TTF font files with included bitmaps. Any prognosis on when to expect this? Andrew

latex: using epstopdf

by Christian

Hi, I tried to use \usepackage{epstopdf} to convert the eps into pdf files on the fly. But nothing is created during the compilation process. I only get the error message that the pdf-file could not be found. How could I get the "epstopdf" to work? Thanks Christian
