I'd like to be able to fold text in plain text files. I often use a
plain text file to plan database tables and columns, and to write
pseudo code. Ideally I'd like to be able to fold the text so that I
can more easily see my headings - like an outliner, yes, that's it.
I've had a look at the bundles available at svn.textmate.org/trunk/
Bundles, and have found the Outlines.tmbundle but doesn't appear to do
what I want. Any suggestions?

Justin C, by the sea.
What could possibly explain this? Rspec test fails when I run from
TextMate but passes when I run from the console.
I made sure the TM commands are using the same Ruby as the console.
The path is the same too.
what am I missing?
any insight gratefully received

hi all - I noticed that the functionality of the gutter isn't what I expected - namely that when I scroll sideways (to the right) in a document I lose the gutter - i.e. it scrolls across to the left with the rest of the text in the doc window...
not SOP in most text editors!
anyway - is there a way to restore/enable this functionality? it's pretty basic stuff!
cheers,

I pressed control alt shift B and then clicked on one of the popup items:
Blog HTML
Blog Markdown
Blog Text
Blog Textile
LaTeX Beamer
Now all of my syntax highlighting is gone.
I was edting javascript. How do I get textmate back to normal?
And more generally, how do I figure out what that keyboard shortcut did
without asking the mailing list? (I searched for a long time to no avail).
Thanks.
hi there - I know that there's a way to use different code coloring for different parts of a document according to the scope of the section - for example when I have Javascript code in a <script> tag or CSS in an HTML doc etc etc.
I read through the Textmate Help and found that it is possible but admit to being rather confused by how it works.
is there a tutorial of any kind?
or an example theme I could look at that would illustrate the process?
thanks,
bennett
I've realized I waste many precious milliseconds lifting my fingers up from
their homes over to the arrow keys. Is there a key combination which will
move the cursor left and right for me? How would I go about setting one up?
thanks,

Cheers everyone!
I do not now if regular expressions are involved in the way TextMate detects URLs in text, but I'd gather they do. In that case, John Gruber has just compiled a regexp that seems to make an even better job at finding URLs embedded in plain text (even surrounded by parenthesis, or LaTeX code). First link contains the description, second link contains a text case page:
http://daringfireball.net/2010/07/improved_regex_for_matching_urlshttp://daringfireball.net/misc/2010/07/url-matching-regex-test-data.text
The only problem I find with it is that the references to LaTeX parts, sections, chapters, etc., built from the LaTeX templates would be matched as well. So, using as inspiration the last expression he offers (only for http/https links), I have generalised it to include also ftp, sftp, smb, afp, and telnet:
(?xi)
\b
( # Capture 1: entire matched URL
(?:
https?:// # http or https protocol
| # or
s?ftps?:// # sftp or ftp or ftps protocol
| # or
smb:// # smb protocol
| # or
afp:// # Apple file sharing protocol
| # or
telnet:// # telnet protocol
| # or
www\d{0,3}[.] # "www.", "www1.", "www2." … "www999."
| # or
[a-z0-9.\-]+[.][a-z]{2,4}/ # looks like domain name followed by a slash
)
(?: # One or more:
[^\s()<>]+ # Run of non-space, non-()<>
| # or
\(([^\s()<>]+|(\([^\s()<>]+\)))*\) # balanced parens, up to 2 levels
)+
(?: # End with:
\(([^\s()<>]+|(\([^\s()<>]+\)))*\) # balanced parens, up to 2 levels
| # or
[^\s`!()\[\]{};:'".,<>?«»“”‘’] # not a space or one of these punct chars
)
)
Can this be built into TextMate, or where should I change if I wanted it just for personal use?
Thanks!

Hello all,
I get this error when I select php code and type apple(command) + ' / '
(forwardslash)
interpreter failed: No such file or directory
Any suggestions as to why? I tried doing a google search for similar issues.
this post came up:
http://lists.macromates.com/textmate/2007-October/022878.html
but my ruby bundle commands are working. just not my php commands.
Best,
Victor
Hello,
I'm trying to write a snippet that will create a footnote in a TM file
(using markdown syntax), and I'm having some difficulties:
Footnote syntax works as follows:
Here's a string of text [^footnote_identifier] which continues here.
then, at the beginning of a new line:
[^footnote_identifier]: text of the footnote itself
So, what the snippet needs to do (theoretically) when snippet is
triggered: generate a (not too long, 5 digit alphanumeric should be
fine for a single document) unique id, and insert the full
[^footnote_identifier] string, then jump to the end of the document,
insert [^footnote_identifier]: and a space, allow typing of the
footnote text, then return to the original insertion point when tab is
pressed again.
I have no idea whether any of this is possible using snippet syntax,
so any pointers would be appreciated.
