In an effort to avoid actual writing this afternoon, I decided to add some enhancements to the LaTeX syntax bundle. Here's what I've done: \textbf{foobar} -> highlights with textbf as the usual maroonish/purplish command color but foobar is bolded in black \textit{foobar} -> sames as above but foobar is italicized in black \texttt{foobar} -> same as above but in a teletype font, ha, no really, its underlined. Added highlighting for strings like: `foo' and ``foo'' These are colored in the same green as math. I find this one really helpful as it also points out when I've forgotten to use the proper pairing of quotes. I thought about highlighting "foo" in red to really remind me that its wrong. Added $ to the list of smart typing pairs. I don't know about the rest of you but 99% of the time when I type a $ in LaTeX its to do math. I also brightened up that maroonish purplish color just slightly since it seemed a bit dim to me. Since these changes seem generally useful and non-controversial (except maybe the color change). I'd be happy to contribute these to the subversion repository if Alan would grant me an account. However, since there are already at least three people in the history file I thought I would post my ideas for further discussion. Any requests?

Bundle distribution principle?

by David Wooten

Greetings all, Just thinking a little about the bundle-inclusion-principle. There's some pretty strong evidence that Allan is a fan of Quicksilver, and it brought to mind the idea that the TMer could download only those bundles (s)he would use. In my case, pretty much exclusively LaTeX. I would guess that, unlike Quicksilver plugins (?), the extra bundles don't have an effect on performance per se, but there is a certain pleasure in being parsimonious. ;) D. Wooten

Popup instead of ESC-cycle

Syntax Highlighting Selection & Command Output Window

by Chu

Some basic things I couldn't figure out: -Is it possible to assign key shortcuts to "Syntax Highlight As" menu for different languages. Right now I launch TextMate & use it for writing quick scripts in the default New Document window which has no syntax highlighting and it is a pain to go to the menu and select the language. -Going with the previous point, can we set the default Syntax Highlight language for the New Document. -What's up with the Command Output Window. It has a huge empty White block on top & dragging the resize bar brings an empty grey block at the bottom. Unless I am missing something, it sure can use some redesign & have features like multiple buffers for each script/selection run but in an elegant configurable way and/or optional output appending in the same window with a divider etc.

Auto-Refresh the project drawer

by Christian Schwanke

Hi, it seems to me, that the project drawer does not allow automatic or manuel refreshment. This is quite a drawback to my mind. I think it would be great to have a manual refresh-button/command. It would be even greater to have some kind of automatic refresh every x seconds/minutes. Regards. Christian

Better Python bundle?

by Russell E. Owen

Anyone got a bundle for python that works better? The built in one uses bizarre colors, the folding support doesn't work properly (and, less importantly, the nifty automatic quote closing doesn't handle """ and ''' quoted strings). I looked at the wiki, but didn't see anything for python. Any hints on improving python support would be appreciated. Regards, -- Russell

no-frills ctags

by Chris Thomas

I got curious. Here's no-frills (and no-warranty) ctags lookup suitable for use with the TM command editor. Select the identifier you're looking for and run this command to find it. Tested with the output from the ancient ctags command installed with Mac OS X. It doesn't support any 'ex' commands except pattern matching. It probably does not work with the extended ctags format, but it would be trivial to make the necessary modifications. There is one problem, however: either my URI syntax is wrong or TextMate's 'txmt://' handler doesn't seem to be handling the 'line' parameter. It would be nice to be able to access this command from the contextual menu. ruby <<END search_string = ENV['TM_SELECTED_TEXT'] exit if search_string == "" # find the tags file in the folder containing the active file tagfile_path = File.dirname(ENV['TM_FILEPATH']) + "/tags" tags = File.open(tagfile_path, "r").read tagarray = tags.scan( /(#{search_string})\t(.*?)\t\\/\\^(.*)\\\$\\/\n/ ) linearray = tagarray.collect do |t| puts t.join("\t") identifier = t[2] path = t[1] sourcefile = File.open(path, "r") while( sourcefile.gets ) break if \$_ =~ Regexp.new(Regexp.escape(identifier)) end sourcefile.lineno end tagarray.each_with_index do |t, index| puts "#{t[1]}:#{linearray[index]} #{\$_}" command = %Q{open txmt://open?url=file://#{File.expand_path(t[1])}&line=#{linearray [index]}} puts command system(command) end END

Feature Req: Big text areas in Find&Replace

by Duarte Carrilho da Graça

Hello ATM, in the find & replace dialogs (both for the signle file and project-wide), there are single line areas to type the text, even tho you can paste multiple lines there, its difficult to scroll through them. I think it'd be really good to have a box with a few lines (i.e assume the multi-line capability) Regards Duarte Carrilho da Graça

Re: [TxMt] Auto-Refresh the project drawer

A gesture I think > I read somewhere that users have come to expect from many programs. Alright, I missed that feature :-) But anyway, I still think, that a preference for automatic refreshs would be a nice-to-have feature. And since the auto-refresh capablity is already there, it shouldn't be too difficult to do. regards, christian

How to open Textmate from external program with specific caret position?

by Joachim Mårtensson

I have been writing a little app that lists text files. When I double click the NSTableView containing the file name I want it to open in TextMate, place the caret on a specific line and scroll down to that line, just like for example xcode does when double clicking in the error list. Is there some way to accomplish this (preferably from Cocoa)? I don`t have any problems opening the file in TextMate. Its the caret positioning that is getting to me. Joachim
