Inserting Tab Stops inside of Conditional Insertion

by Quine

I am trying to make a snippet for easy writing of Effective Uniform Annual Worth calculations which look something like this: EUAW = (Yearly Benefit + Salvage Value*[A/F, $5%, $6]) - (Yearly Cost + Initial Cost*[A/P, $10%, $11]) = [same thing but with [] expressions replaced by table lookups i do by hand] This is the snippet I've crafted for this (and to learn how to use conditionals in snippets in general): EUAW($1) = (${2:Yearly Benefit}${3: + ${4:Salvage Value}[A/F, $5%, $6]}) - (${7:Yearly Cost}${8: + ${9:Initial Cost}[A/P, $10%, $11]}) = ${14:($2${4/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.)/}$12) - ($7${9/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.)/}$13)} That fills in everything, with appropriate mirroring, with one exception. I want the text that's inserted if Salvage Value or Initial Cost are not removed to include a tab stop. Thus I want the last line to look, I think, like: = ${14:($2${4/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.${12:Table Lookup Value})/}) - ($7${9/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.${13: Table Lookup Value})/})} So that way if the salvage value/initial cost fields are removed in the first part of the equation, the tab stop won't be there, but otherwise it will so I can fill in the table lookup value. However, I've tried about a dozen things and I can't get it to put that tab stop there. I understand that $12 in that context would refer to the regex subexpression 12, but I have tried escaping all sorts of character combinations to prevent that to no avail. If someone could please tell me how to insert those conditional tab stops in there, I would be most appreciative.

TM 2.0 // visual effects via CoreVideo?

by Dennis Amrouche

Hello Allan, I found this on the net today: http://www.simplehelp.net/2008/04/24/how-to-blurminal-your-os-x-terminal/ Its a hack of the terminal via SIMBL giving transparent backgrounds of Terminal a 'blur effect'. For a certain degree 'blurring backgrounds' improve usability, instead of being GUI-toy only. Also, it would integrate well into GUI changes of OSX that came with Leopard. Could something similar be on the roadmap? BTW: This 'blurring' effect could be accompanied (fo' tha freakanoidz) by effects like 'invertation of the background', making it B/W or applying textures to it. And Im thinking these kinds of effects will be supported by Core technology, having in mind that you stated TM2.0 will be absolutly build on core libraries of OSX 10.5 Leopard :0) Thanks in advance! Dennis ps: But I also have in mind that you dont think TM will have its own background-images, so I consider that you dont put any priority on these GUI things :0(

feature request: mate command line tool should open file as tab in project independent of path

by Thorsten Kohnhorst

hello, don't really know if it's a feature request, bug report or my stupidity: if i have a project opened in textmate like this: ~/project_dir a_file.txt and i call 'mate a_file.txt' from inside the project_dir everything is fine (file opens as tab in project window). but if i call mate from another directory with an absolute or relative path to ~/project_dir/a_file.txt, it opens in a new window which is very unconvenient for me. if there should be a reason (can't imagine one) against this proposal, i could live with a command line option to specify the project's directory. thanks in advance for considering it, yours kodi

Using tab to move out of parentheses (like eclipse) - help please! :)

by Quine

Hey fellow textmates! I'd really really like to replicate something like eclipse's ability to hit tab to move outside parentheses. However, all I really want to do is be able to hit tab to move from |) to )| outside parens, I don't really even need it to work when the cursor isn't directly adjacent to the closing paren. I know I can make ( trigger a snippet that does that, but then I lose all the regular functionality. I thought perhaps one could define a scope ('within-parens') for all source code, and then there could be a command or something that checks to see if the next char is a ) and if so advances the cursor past it that'd only work in that scope. More advanced functionality would be great but not really crucial. If anyone could help with this I'd REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

Mercurial bundle - abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!

by Kevin Horton

I've recently starting using mercurial (using v0.9.5), and am using the Mercurial bundle (2 Aug 2007 version - the latest, I think). Sometimes it works great, and sometimes an attempt to use it fails with "abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!". I've searched the list archives, and found one reference to this issue: http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-November/023219.html But I don't understand the discussion, nor how to apply it to my project. How can I create a TextMate project that has files from several different nested directories, without having the Mercurial bundle fail to work? Thanks, -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada

Different behavior for input as Selected Text versus Scope

by Michael Manti

I have written a command to "Reflow comments" in my Stata do files. The command is as follows: #!/usr/bin/env bash sed -E -e 's_^\s*//(.*)_\1_' | # strip leading // and whitespace from each line fmt | # reflow comment text sed -E -e 's_^(.*)_//\1_' # prefix each line with // Input is set to "Selected Text" or "Scope", and output is set to "Replace selected text". If I invoke the command with the cursor in the middle of the following comment: // this is a profoundly silly comment that I'm writing just to test out how to reflow comments // something strange happens when I select the text rather than simply execute it within the comment scope // i wonder what's going on // maybe i'll write to the mailing list I get the desired output: // this is a profoundly silly comment that I'm writing just to test out how to // reflow comments something strange happens when I select the text rather // than simply execute it within the comment scope i wonder what's going on // maybe i'll write to the mailing list However, if I instead select the entire block of text, I get the following mangled result: // this is a profoundly silly comment that I'm writing just to test out how to reflow comments // something strange happens when I select the text rather than simply execute it within the comment scope // i wonder what's going on // maybe i'll write to the mailing list Can anyone explain what causes the differing behavior? Thanks! Michael Manti statboy3000(a)gmail.com

ActionScript 3 bundle

by Ray Merkler

Trying out the ActionScript 3 bundle, and I get this error when I try to build using mxmlc: Loading configuration file: flex-config.xml /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/ActionScript 3.tmbundle/ Support/bin/parse_mxmlc_out.rb:31:in `+': can't convert nil into String (TypeError) from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/ ActionScript 3.tmbundle/Support/bin/parse_mxmlc_out.rb:31 from / Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/ActionScript 3.tmbundle/ Support/bin/parse_mxmlc_out.rb:24:in `each' from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/ActionScript 3.tmbundle/Support/bin/ parse_mxmlc_out.rb:24 I can't figure out what's causing this. Any suggestions?

Emacs-outline-mode in TextMate

by Niels Kobschaetzki

Hi! At time I have no Mac as a laptop and therefore I use emacs when I'm not in front of my iMac. I just found out that emacs has quite a simple but cool outline-mode and wanted to ask if it is already ported to TextMate. Does anybody know? Niels

Hi Kai -- This isn't exactly the correct fix, but if you go to Bundles- >Bundle Editor->Edit Languages... and pick the LaTeX->LaTeX syntax definition, down about 1/3rd of the way down, you'll find the place where it is looking for these mathy environments: align|equation|eqnarray | multline|aligned|alignat | split|gather|gathered soon below that, you'll find end = '(?x) (?:\s*) # Optional whitespace If you change the (?:\s*) to (?:.*?) then you can get a sort of approximation of the correct syntax coloring. I really don't quite understand why it works, but the idea was essentially to allow the { that precedes the \end{gathered} to be ignored (it wouldn't have counted as whitespace). In the original formulation, TextMate couldn't find the \end{gathered}, and so just assumes that the environment ends when the document does. This isn't actually the right solution, but it at least keeps you from having the entire body of your document math-colored. The symptom of why this isn't the right solution is that everything following \begin{gathered} (including the closing brace of the first argument to \newenvironment, as well as anything from then on until just before the line containing \end{gathered}) is math colored. Ideally, the LaTeX bundle would be able to handle \(re)newenvironment specially, since each of the two arguments to these commands will almost always contain a lone \begin or \end, and scope of any mathification should presumably be restricted to the argument itself. But I haven't got a clue how to approach this the "right" way. -Paul
