Hi LaTeX users, I'm working some more on the Typeset and View command, we are going to replace the default command that currently ships with TextMate. But I need some information. What process are TextMate's LaTeX users following for building their documents? I'm sure most of you are using bibtex, but what about other things like makeindex? Has everyone moved to a pure pdf-based process, or are some of you still using dvi/postscript? What are you using for pictures? Anything you can tell me will help. I would also *love* example documents along with the expected output. This will aid in testing, and ensure that your particular process will be supported! Thanks, —Alex

bibtex in textmate problem and tentative solution

by Peeter Sällström Randsalu

Hi! I had the same problem as described in a post from Sebastian on 2007-11-11 (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.textmate.general/ 23160). Here is my error output: Running bibtex on Exjobb (ny).tex Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/peeter/Peeterprogram/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle/Support/bin/ texMate.py", line 457, in texStatus, isFatal, numErrs, numWarns = run_bibtex(texfile=fileName) File "/Users/peeter/Peeterprogram/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle/Support/bin/ texMate.py", line 71, in run_bibtex return stat,fatal,err,warn UnboundLocalError: local variable 'stat' referenced before assignment It seems that it had to do with the parentheses in my filename messing up the regexes. My solution was to change lines 71 and 72 in Textmate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle/Support/bin/texMate.py as follows: # auxfiles = [f for f in os.listdir('.') if re.search('.aux $',f) > 0] # auxfiles = [f for f in auxfiles if re.match(r'('+ basename + r'\.aux|bu\d+\.aux)',f)] auxfiles = [f for f in os.listdir('.') if re.search('.aux$',f) > 0 and (f.startswith(basename) or re.match(r'bu\d+\.aux', f))] This works, at least for me. Or have I messed something else up in the process? /Peeter

How do I vary the C indentation?

by Berk Geveci

Hi folks, I work on several open-source projects (VTK, ParaView, CMake...) that follow a somewhat unusual indentation style. Instead of if (foo) { bar(); } bar(); they require if (foo) { bar; } bar() Getting the first curly indent right was trivial but I can't figure out how to reduce the indentation _after_ the closing curly. When the pattern matches decreaseIndentPattern, the current line's indentation is reduced. What I need is for the following line to be unindented. Is there any way to do this? Thanks, -berk

TM lags when switching

by Scott Haneda

I am pretty sure I just pinned this down to TM. If I work in TM, save, then command-tab to a browser, there is significant lag from the time it will switch to the browser, or, at times, even bring up the application tab switcher. If I do not save, the toggle is fast, so it seems to be something to do with leaving TM, where it is not letting me leave as fast as other apps do. I have tried toggling back and forth between other apps, and the behavior is speedy. Any idea what is going on, and how to solve it? These are simple files, single files, that have a hundred lines or so in them, nothing complicated at all. -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

ppc?

by Kyle Johnson

Is the latest (cutting edge) version of textmate intended to run on a PPC? After updating it today, textmate gives me a "You cannot open the application "TextMate" because it is not supported on this architecture" message on my PowerPC G5 (3.1) when I try to open it. Kyle Johnson

Git Bundle plist errors

by Josh Cheek

Hi, I'm having trouble getting some of the more complex Git bundle tools to work. For example, when I try to merge, it does http://img691.imageshack.us/i/picture3apw.png/ I suspect my problem is with my ruby version, I'm on OSX 10.5.6, and using rvm to manage my ruby version, with the shell variable TM_RUBY set (this has resolved all of my previous issues with rvm and textmate) I followed the Git.tmbundle installation instructions at http://github.com/jcf/git-tmbundle, installing it in ~/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles I followed these instructions http://gnuu.org/2009/05/25/getting-gittmbundle-working-with-ruby19/ but the svn repo had moved, so instead I did $ svn co http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Support/ My TM_GIT is set correctly, and simpler commands like Browse Annotated File are working. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. -Josh PS - Full text of the error: /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/ui.rb:237:in `to_plist': An object in the argument tree could not be converted (ArgumentError) from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/ui.rb:237:in `request_item' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/../lib/ui.rb:9:in `request_item_with_force_pick' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/../app/controllers/branch_controller.rb:71:in `merge' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/lib/application_controller.rb:105:in `block in call' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/lib/application_controller.rb:94:in `with_filters' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/lib/application_controller.rb:105:in `call' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/lib/application_controller.rb:112:in `call' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/tmvc.rb:56:in `dispatch_normal' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/tmvc.rb:74:in `dispatch' from /Users/joshuacheek/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Git.tmbundle/Support/tmvc/tmvc.rb:96:in `dispatch' from /tmp/temp_textmate.FkobtG:4:in `'

After update of latexmk, TextMate is still using some old version

by Marius Hofert

Dear TextMate users, I work with textmate 1.5.8 (1505) under Mac OS X 10.6.2. I installed the latest version of latexmk (version 4.11) and tested it in the terminal, works like a charm. I then tried to compile a .tex document with latexmk via TextMate. If I click the button "Show Latexmk.pl Messages" I can see which version of latexmk is used. It turns out that some old version is used (version 3.21j of 2 December 2007). After that I changed the variable "TM_LATEX_COMPILER" explicitly from "latexmk.pl" to "/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/scripts/latexmk/latexmk.pl" --- still the old version is used. I have no idea where this old version is located and how I can force TextMate to use the new one. The new one is correctly installed, I can use "latexmk foo.tex" from everywhere on my system. How can I tell TextMate to use the correct version of latexmk? Cheers, Marius

TM2

by Tim Harper

Allan: First off, let me tell you how much I respect you. You've created a tremendously valuable product which has literally logged more than a 1000 hours of usage for me. I've enjoyed extending it (RubyAMP, Git textmate bundle, contributing to many more), and have really gotten full leverage out of it. Now the sobering part. Things have been awfully quiet about TM2 for the last several months. You've claimed you are still working on it, but I've just about lost hope. There are no signs to reinforce my faith that TM2 will ever become a reality. I use both Emacs and VIM. There are many strengths that TM has over it, so I still consider it to be a superior editor in many regards. Some of these I've articulated in my blog post, http://tim.theenchanter.com/2010/02/emacs-baggage.html I can't help but wonder if your promise of "free upgrades" has blasted a crater in your motivation to work on TM2. Is there a possibility of this, Allan? If so, I would suggest the following: * Release a version of TM as TM2 with all the critical bugs fixed. Everyone gets their free "upgrade" (except the macheist users as you've previously stated). Perhaps include one or two new features. * Post a public apology for over-promising TM2 features, and state that you miscalculated how much you would be able to include in it as a free upgrade, and from a business standpoint it's impossible to fund all of new development as a free upgrade. Say you are terribly, terribly sorry, that you are doing your best, and hope that people will be forgiving. (I know I will). * State that TM3 will be released with those features, and will be a paid upgrade for everyone. I would prefer to have a paid upgrade to TM3 than a non-paid non-existent upgrade to TM2. Right now I can't pay any price to upgrade to TM2. I think you have a shot at this to make this a profitable move for yourself. Lots of people still use TM and many may come back. If my hunches are correct, then I plead from you: don't sell us all short by selling yourself short. With the highest respect I'm capable of, Tim Harper

ANN: AckMate - a plugin to replace the ack-in-project bundle

by Trevor Squires

Hey, just wanted to let people know I've released AckMate - a plugin for searching your project files with 'ack'. It offers significant improvements over my previous ack-in-project bundle, such as per-project windows and settings, filetype selection, and a much less annoying UI. It's currently only compatible with OS X 10.5 and above (and only heavily tested on 10.6). Source and binaries are included in the github project at http://github.com/protocool/AckMate and the project wiki contains instructions on how to use it. Regards, Trev -- -- Trevor Squires http://propaneapp.com

CPU eating Textmate/Skim bug

by Nicholas Cole

Dear List, I have a strange bug to report. Using 10.6.3, Textmate and Skim together (via the LaTeX bundle) seems to trigger a nasty bug in OS X. As far as I can tell, it is triggered when skim reloads a changed PDF file, but I haven't been able to completely reliably find out exactly what triggers it. At first I thought it was to do with the pdfsync functionality, but then I noticed it could be triggered simply if the files changed. Whatever is causing it, once triggered any new process on the machine will use up 100% of the CPU. The only way to get things back to normal is to log out of the user account and back in again. I realise that this is a very sketchy bug report - I'm posting it here in the hopes that someone else has run into it and has managed to work out exactly what is causing it better than I have. I'm not even sure if the fault lies with skim or with textmate or with the latex bundle. Best wishes, Nicholas
