Hi all- Stumped over the following regex for a block comment: > begin = '(?<=0 : 0$)'; This actually works, but I need to generalize it to one or more whitespace characters between the "0" and ":", and then between the colon and final zero. Tried things like: > begin = '(?<=0\s+:\s+0$)'; but Oniguruma gets really irked at me. Grateful for any thoughts or pointers... Thanks, Charles

Odd "Funk" sound when TM loses focus

by Merrifield Adam

For the past few days TextMate has had this odd behavior where it plays the "Funk" sound every time TextMate loses focus. It's not just on a particular project, file, window… it's everything, the app as a whole. I tried looking in console but nothing popped up. I haven't added any new bundles, plugins, snippets, etc… for a while and I haven't messed about in preferences for eons. Everything wrt TextMate ought to be status quo from a few days ago so I question whether it has anything to do with TextMate at all. Is this familiar to anyone?

Scroll + focus bug

by Rasmus Abrahamsen

bugs(a)macromates.com returned a permanent failure. So I will report the weird behaviour I notived. I have a long source file (300-400 lines). I put my caret at line 200 and scrolled (with a mouse) down to the bottom. I then pressed right-arrow to go to the symbol to the right of my caret expecting the window to scroll to show where my caret is. The window does scroll, but it scrolls to the top of the document instead of to the exact position of my caret. I will attach a movie: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/323865/Textmate%20scroll%20bug.mov As the window start scrolling automatically, it's because I push right-arrow, the next time I push right-arrow again and finally the window actually shows what I am editing.

replacing tabs with spaces in selected area

by Mojca Miklavec

Hello, I'm looking for a trick that would help me replace tabs by spaces in selected area. I have source code that looks approximately like this: <tab><tab>short<tab><tab><tab><tab>a; <tab><tab>unsigned long<tab>b; <tab><tab>int<tab><tab><tab><tab><tab>c; which is only aligned when some specific size of tab is chosen. I would like to keep the first two tabs (to preserve nice alignment), but replace the tabs between "short" and "a", so that the text would be aligned under any tabulator width setting. I cannot use just "Search & Replace" because the first tab has variable width (depending on its starting position). If there is no out-of-the-box solution, I know some ruby, so I could write a program that would perform the task for me, but I'm not sure how to pass the following information from TextMate to my script: - at which column does my selection start (I would like to "alt"-select a "box") - how wide is the current tab But I hope that there exists an easier solution. Thank you very much for any hint ... Mojca

Re: replacing tabs with spaces in selected area & RE: How to change <form> tag coloring?

by Brandon M Fryslie

RE: replacing tabs with spaces in selected area You can use regular expressions in search and replace to do what you want, but there is also a built in command. Click 'Text' on the menu bar, then under 'Convert' click Tabs to Spaces. It will only convert the tabs in the current selection. Hold the option key while selecting to select a box rather than the entire lines. RE: How to change <form> tag coloring? This is actually very easy (in theory), I'm surprised more people don't know how TextMate works. I'll tell you the steps to add a scope called meta.tag.block.form.html to your html language bundle which can be styled individually. Note: this only adds a scope to the tag itself. The 'block' part of the language file must be modified in a similar way to style the block. Open the bundle editor, go to the html bundle, then go to the HTML language file. Find the block within the patterns section that starts { name = 'meta.tag.block.any.html';. Select that entire block (from { to }, ) and duplicate it. Of those two identical blocks, you will be editing the one that appears closer to the top of the file. Change meta.tag.block.any.html to meta.tag.block.form.html. Now change the line that starts 'begin' = ... to begin = '(</?)((?i:form)\b)'; Done! Open an html file and press shift+control+p in some different tags and you should see the change in scope from any.html to form.html. I added a style to my theme for meta.tag.block.form.html and it only styles the form tags. You will have to play with it to get it exactly how you want, but I hope this gives you enough info to get started. <3 TextMate Brandon

How to change <form> tag coloring?

by commonmind

I've searched the forums and read as much of the documentation as I could, and I cannot find a straight-forward answer to my question. I'm trying to color specific tags and elements associated with those tags. Using <form></form> tags as an example: I'd like to color these tags and all the elements within them a bright yellow. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/How-to-change-%3Cform%3E-tag-coloring--tp30747855p307… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

latex/ghostscript eps error

by Jim McLoughlin

Hi folks, I've got a latex article, me.tex, that includes a graphic mefig.eps. If I compile via the command line: pdflatex mefig.eps the compilation process uses Ghostscript to create an intermediary file mefig-eps-converted-to.pdf and generates me.pdf with no errors. When I compile from TextMate (whether I use pdflatex or latexmk.pl doesn't matter), I get an error: ------------ !!! Error: Cannot open Ghostscript for piped input Latex Error: ./epstest.tex:14 Package pdftex.def Error: File `breakevenb1-eps-converted-to.pdf' not found. --------------- I am using the latest version of TextMate (with the default Latex bundle) and TexLive 2010 (I actually uninstalled my TextMate and re-installed from scratch to make sure it wasn't a config quirk on my end). Any ideas here? Shouldn't TextMate simply be issuing the command "pdflatex my.tex", which work from Terminal? Thanks, Jim

How does the QuickTime embed thing work?

by Walter Lee Davis

I have always been able to drag and drop a QuickTime movie into an HTML page and the requisite object/embed/ActiveX tag structure is automagically built. Now, on my new MacBook Pro Snow Leopard, in a user account I built using the Apple Migration Assistant from a Leopard MacBook Pro, this no longer works. I get a cryptic error pasted into the current document instead of my code. How is this supposed to work, so I can understand where to start poking around? Does it rely on QuickTime 7 Pro being installed? Thanks in advance, Walter
