- TextMate - lists.macromates.com

by Chris

When compiling LaTeX documents, the Typeset and View pane works properly when invoked from by running the compile command from the contextual menu, or by using the hotkey combination. However, when commands are run by clicking the buttons provided at the bottom of the T&V panel at the end of a completed command (e.g. re-run latex, run bibtex), the panel does not scroll down automagically to follow the most recent output. This makes it hard to follow.

Beta Programme

by Teifion Jordan

Hi I did a quick search of the archives and didn't find anything so if I missed it, I apologise in advance. I can't find anything anywhere about being on the Textmate 2 Beta programme (though I can quite accept that there is currently not such a programme). If there is such a programme how do I apply to be on it and if there isn't, do you think you'll create one? (and if so, see previous question :)) Thanks for your time Teifion Jordan

R bundle: Rmate suggestion

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, while sitting on the entire R stuff I had an idea concerning Rmate. If Rmate plots something it will save these images (PDFs) in a temporary folder, and at the end it will open these files in Preview. Fine. My suggestion is, instead of open Preview automatically to display all images inside of the Rmate output window as pdfs right after the last output. If one clicks on an image it opens it with the default application, or one can drag it to a location to save it as pdf. As demo I did a screencast 9MB http://www.bibiko.de/TMRmate.mov Would this be useful? Best, --Hans

Copy/Paste from other applications

by Bernd Schiffer

Hi. I'm new to Textmate and I love it - but there's one nasty thing I couldn't get rid of, so I ask you here. If I copy and paste (CMD-C and CMD-V) inside Textmate, everythings fine. If I copy (CMD-V) from text from another application, say Firefox or even Textedit, and I copy (CMD-P) that into Textmate, that won't work. All I got was something I copied earlier in Textmate. It doesn't work the other round, copying something from Textmate to, say, Textedit. Copy/Paste between my other programs works fine, for instance between Firefox and Textedit. What have I done wrong? It seems that Textmate uses a different clipboard than the one from Mac OS (my version is 10.4). How can I make Textmate use OS's clipboad instead of its own? Thanks in advance for any help, Bernd -- berndschiffer.blogspot.com

Keybinding for ^> doesn't work in Leopard

by Ian Piper

Hi all, I'm sure this used to work for me... I used ctrl + shift + ">" as a shortcut for <% %> or <%= %> I have been trying this today and it doesn't work. I have recently upgraded to Leopard. I also use a Matias Tactile Pro 2 keyboard (but I have tried my Apple BT keyboard and my PowerBook keyboard with the same effect). I had a look at the KeyBindings page on the website and also tried Key Codes. I also checked out the Console log and couldn't see anything obvious. Can anyone guide me towards a resolution of this? Thanks, Ian.

try mdfind

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi all. Did you try the new mdfind? it's really fast. Test it like this: create a command "Find and Open in Finder" Input: selected text or line Output: Discard Text of the command: mdfind "kMDItemDisplayName == ${TM_CURRENT_LINE}" | xargs open If you put the cursor on a line containing a filename (no path, just the filename complete of its extension) and issue the command, spotlight will search for the file and open it. On my MacBookPro it takes 1/3 sec which means ten times faster than using the GUI. Just a test, of course one can do much better things. For a list of a file metadata (like kMDItemDisplayName above) use the command mdls filename Ciao (and a happy new year) Piero

Rails bundle with Rails 1.2

by Jeremy Wilkins

Hi, I've currently working on a project that targets Rails 1.2, not 2.0. I've just run 'convert to partial' and got a 2.0 style xxxx.html.erb, is there an env var or similar I can set to make it use .rhtml instead? Are there likely to be any other 2.0 only gotchas in the new release? Thanks jebw

Converting dense XML to easy-to-read form?

by Eric O'Brien

I am not *writing* XML files, but I often want to understand one -- either just for education or because I need to modify it. Often the file in question was automatically generated and "ease of reading by humans" was not part of the process. Right now, I trying to pull apart a XML file where a single element contains about 90 attributes. Thankfully, they *do* seem to be ordered alphabetically, but they are all run together in a single line. That is, there are no linefeeds between attributes. Which would be just what I'd like (for readability anyway -- I'm hoping that "white space is white space and it won't matter whether those white-spaces are space characters or line feeds). For this file, using Find and Replace seems to work. (Find <doublequote><space> replace with <doublequote><newline>). I don't know enough about XML to know if it always going to be as easy as that. The XML bundle item "Tidy" actually runs xmllint, but I don't see a way to make that do what I want. Searching Google on "XML pretty print" I came up with a number of hits, but many bits of code were from the year 2000 or so. Does anyone know of any... contemporary solutions? Or have other suggestions/ideas? Thanks! eo

Update to r1455 breaking Rails tests

by Peer Allan

Hi, Since I updated to r1455 this morning I have been unable to run tests in my rails app. RakeMate returns the following error: Rails requires RubyGems >= 0.9.4. Please install RubyGems and try again: http://rubygems.rubyforge.org I have RubyGems 1.0.1 installed and had no problems prior to the update. I am running on Leopard, upgraded from Tiger, and I am still using my previous MacPorts Ruby config. The application is Rails 2.0.2. Is anyone else having this problem? Peer

It would be useful if TextMate had variables like $TM_SELECTION_START and $TM_SELECTION_END which would return the corresponding offsets in the file (or the cursor offset, if nothing is selected). It does in the form of a line/column position of the start position. Maybe I am simply misunderstanding you, but are you saying that TextMate returns line and column position of the start position of selection? I'm asking because the $TM_LINE_NUMBER and $TM_COLUMN_NUMBER variables don't quite work this way. To illustrate what I mean, let's add a 'Show Position' command that displays position as a tooltip: echo "$TM_LINE_NUMBER:$TM_COLUMN_NUMBER" and type 'TextMate' into an empty document. Now, if we select 'TextMate' with mouse from left to right, the command returns 1:9. If we select 'TextMate' with mouse from right to left, the command returns 1:1. Finally, if we select 'TextMate' by double-clicking between 't' and 'M', the command returns 1:5. So, these variables actually return the cursor position, not the starting position of selection and it is impossible to calculate the starting and ending positions of selection from $TM_LINE_NUMBER and $TM_COLUMN_NUMBER variables (without knowing how the selection was made). The only way to do this (that is known to me) is to write a macro that first calls a command that replaces selection with itself wrapped in U+FFFC characters: echo -n $'\357\277\274'$TM_SELECTED_TEXT$'\357\277\274' and then calls another command that receives the whole document as an input and can "find" the selection looking for U+FFFC characters. It would certainly be easier for the average user (and somewhat more flexible) if TextMate had something like $TM_SELECTED_TEXT_START_LINE_NUMBER and $TM_SELECTED_TEXT_START_COLUMN_NUMBER variables, or, alternatively, slightly changed semantics of $TM_LINE_NUMBER and $TM_COLUMN_NUMBER variables so that they always return the starting position of selection (no matter how the selection was made). The reason it does not use a byte offset is that internally TM would have to "calculate" this (by adding the length of each line preceding the selection) and I am generally wary of exporting shell variables that need to be calculated and have an unknown running time (i.e. in practice the user could have a million lines and each command execution would then always require a million numbers to be added together). I assumed that these calculations were already being performed, after I had a look at: $ class-dump -C OakTextView TextMate | grep selectedRange - (struct _NSRange)selectedRange; - (void)setMarkedText:(id)fp8 selectedRange:(struct _NSRange)fp12; and saw 'selectedRange'. But, evidently, something much more complicated is going on, and I certainly would not ask you questions about TextMate internal workings :-) The only remaining question is what symbol to use as a mark. I decided to use √ (221A, SQUARE ROOT character, which you can type with Option-V), but I'm not sure this is the best choice. Maybe it's better to use some character from Private Use Area (E000--F8FF)? We generally use U+FFFC, OBJECT REPLACEMENT CHARACTER. I've attached a new version of macros using U+FFFC to the original ticket. Happy New Year! -- Sergei Yakovlev

Problem with TextMate's Builder.rb and ActiveSupport on Leopard

I've patched TM's builder.rb to alias to tm_blank_slate_method_added instead, which works. However, this is only a hack to fix this problem, I'm sure there is a better way to address this (e.g. builder.rb checking wether a module 'Builder' already exists, and if not, load tm_builder.rb or something like that). regards, Markus

Spaces instead of Tabs

by Ulai Beekam

When typing the space key in my code in TextMate, how can I let TextMate use a particular number of spaces instead of that tab character? I would like to always use 2 spaces instead of the tab character. Also, how can I auto-format code that already have tabs (or tabs replaced by, say, 4 spaces) to format it the way I want it (say, tabs replaced by 2 spaces)? Microsoft Visual Studio allowed me to do that. Does TextMate provide such facilities? (Guess I could always turn to regular expressions to fix such stuff.) _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Open TM with Project Drawer by default

by n_powell

Hello, I am new to TM, and I have a couple of questions regarding the Project Drawer. I did search google and the mailing list archives but I didn't see an answer to my question. When I am launching TM I would like it to open up with the Project Drawer already present. Also if it could open a directory (like ~/.projects) and all the sub directories that would be great as well. I am guessing there is a way to do this with TM since I can issue `mate ~/.projects` On the command line and that works. I have Quicksilver installed, so I bet I could create a trigger that would do what I want, but I would prefer to just have it work this way by default.

Any other GTDAlt users out there? After doing a clean install of Leopard, I'm having trouble getting the GTDAlt bundle working again in TextMate. Am getting Ruby errors when I add dates to actions, and iCal syncing is using the incorrect date in iCal (one day earlier than set in my gdt files). It's a wonderful bundle, and I would love to keep it running smoothly. Any clues appreciated. Richard

[REVIEW] JavaScript

by Thomas Aylott - subtleGradient

I just added three bundles to Review. JavaScript, MooTools & Prototype The major change is that I moved all the bracketed and whitespace scopes out of "prototype bracketed" into "javascript base". There are now two core Javascript languages. "Javascript" and "Javascript Basic" When opening a Javascript file, you'll want to use "Javascript". When you use a language like HTML, it'll automatically include "javascript basic" as embedded source where necessary. "Javascript basic" is mostly just a modified version of the current Javascript language. It should be pared down a bit more still. The MooTools bundle contains a completely new language syntax. It also includes the classic mootools language by Joe Maller as "MooTools 1.1" It's pretty basic at the moment, but I have plans for upgrading it and adding context sensitive codecompletion. The Review Prototype bundle is NOT upgraded for the latest version of prototype. All it is is a compatibility upgrade to support the new javascript core languages. Those few of you who care, please let me know what I need to do before I can replace the core bundles with these guys. —Thomas Aylott – subtleGradient—

Saving file to hidden directory

by Phil Molyneux

While the File -> Open... dialogue has a button to show hidden files, the File -> Save seems to have no obvious way to save a file to a hidden directory. I was creating an environment.plist file to save in ~/.MacOSX --- my immediate work around was to save the file to the Desktop and use Finder to move the file to .MacOSX --- I have set Finder to show all files using either the defaults command or TinkerTool. A search of the mailing list indicates that Cmd-Shift-G opens a sub dialogue box to the File -> Save dialogue that allows you to type the name of the directory directly but that would seem hard to discover. Is there a preference in Textmate that modifies the File -> Save dialogue to show hidden files ? Phil Molyneux

Ruby 1.9

by Jeff LaMarche

Greetings all. Been using TextMate for quite some time, but never had a problem before now. Allan Odgaard suggested I post this to the list. I installed Ruby 1.9 this morning by doing a source install from the release tarball. I had to manually update the readline library and I also had to change my path so that /usr/local/lib is read before /usr/ lib because of the libreadline.dylib that is contained there. I can run Ruby 1.9 programs from the command line just fine, but if I try to use command-R to run them from inside TextMate, I get: ------------------ BEGIN ERROR MESSAGE ----------------- /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/ scriptmate.rb:4:in `require': /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:40: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting keyword_then or ',' or ';' or '\n' (SyntaxError) when 1: lines.each { |line| block.call(line) } ^ /Applications/TextMate.app/ Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:41: syntax error, unexpected keyword_when, expecting keyword_end when 2: lines.each { |line| block.call(line, name) } ^ /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:47: syntax error, unexpected keyword_elsif, expecting keyword_end elsif sync? ^ /Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:49: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting keyword_then or ',' or ';' or '\n' when 1: block.call(data) ^ /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:50: syntax error, unexpected keyword_when, expecting keyword_end when 2: block.call(data, name) ^ / Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb: 60: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting keyword_then or ',' or ';' or '\n' when 1: leftovers.each_pair { |name,... ^ /Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:61: syntax error, unexpected keyword_when, expecting keyword_end when 2: leftovers.each_pair { |na... ^ /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/io.rb:67: syntax error, unexpected keyword_end, expecting $end from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/scriptmate.rb:4:in `' from /Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle/Support/ RubyMate/run_script.rb:1:in `require' from /Applications/TextMate.app/ Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle/Support/RubyMate/ run_script.rb:1:in `' ------------------ END ERROR MESSAGE ----------------- I also get errors running a shell script, but not quite the same, and it does then proceed to run the script after dumping the error message, unlike with the Ruby script: ------------------ BEGIN ERROR MESSAGE ----------------- (erb):29:in `concat': character encodings differ (ArgumentError) from (erb):29:in `html_head' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.9.0/erb.rb:743:in `eval' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.9.0/erb.rb:743:in `result' from / Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/ web_preview.rb:116:in `html_head' from -:4:in `' Hello World Program exited with status 0. ------------------ END ERROR MESSAGE ----------------- As I said, I'm still able to run Ruby code from the command line, but it's obviously less convenient, so I was hoping somebody might have an idea what's going on.

A fix for Move Selection Line Up/Down and suggestions for TextMate

by Сергей Яковлев

[REPOSTING BECAUSE OF BAD FORMATTING] Hi! A well-known problem with Move Selection Line Up/Down commands (Control-Command-Up/Down) is that if you use them without selection (which means "move current line"), the cursor ends up in the wrong place. This has been bugging me and my friends for quite some time, so I wrote a fix. It's two macros overriding default key equivalents, which you can find attached to the bug description at http://macromates.com/ticket/show?ticket_id=58C52785 . Please tell if this works for you. Also, is it possible to put this fix into some standard TextMate bundle like Text.tmbundle, so that all TextMate users enjoy it? (Until it is fixed in the new engine of TextMate 2.) What is the best way to do it? This is my first experience in TextMate programming, and several times I've been stuck in various dead-ends. What follows is a somewhat long description of how I approached the problem along with some suggestions on making TextMate easier to program. Most people would like to skip this. So, my first (rather silly) attempt was a huge Ruby program which replicated functionality of Move Selection Line Up/Down and depended on my assumption that the cursor is always at the end of selection (potentially allowing me to calculate all the necessary offsets in the file). Well, it turned out that my assumption was simply not true, as the cursor can be anywhere inside the selection, depending on how you've selected the text. Suggestion 1. It would be useful if TextMate had variables like $TM_SELECTION_START and $TM_SELECTION_END which would return the corresponding offsets in the file (or the cursor offset, if nothing is selected). On a second attempt, I decided that I should instead go with the built-in commands, simply correcting the cursor position for the special case when nothing is selected. So we remember current cursor position, call Move Selection Line Up/Down, and move the cursor back to remembered position if nothing is selected. There are two problems here. First, you can only call built-in commands from macros, and it is not possible to remember values through the steps of a macro. Second, there is no direct way to reposition the cursor. One indirect way to achieve this is to insert a snippet with a $0 variable. However, to move the cursor to arbitrary position in this fashion, we need an output option like "Replace Document as Snippet", which is not available. Because of these two problems, I decided to use TMTOOLS plugin, which has "call macro" (for calling arbitrary macros and built-in commands from commands) and "set caretTo" (for setting the cursor position). I got a working solution, but it had a delay of 0.5 to 1 s, which was too slow to be useful. Suggestion 2. Add a way to set "global" environment variables programmatically (from commands). These "global" variables should be available to all subsequently called commands (and other bundle items) until explicitly unset. Suggestion 3. Replace output options "Insert as Text" and "Insert as Snippet" with just one option, "Insert", and add a checkbox "as Snippet" to the right. This would add such useful options as "Replace Selected Text as Snippet", "Replace Document as Snippet" and "Create New Document as Snippet" without making the list of options too long. So, on a third (and final) attempt, I dropped TMTOOLS and returned to the idea of a macro. Inspired by Duane Johnson's solution for multiple insertion points, I decided to use a special symbol (mark) to "remember" the initial position of the cursor. So we insert the mark at the cursor (if nothing is selected), call Move Selection Line Up/Down, and replace the mark with empty string (if nothing is selected), which moves the cursor there as a side-effect. The problem here is that Replace command always replaces current selection with replace buffer, even if it doesn't match the find buffer, which ruins the case when something has already been selected in the beginning. Replace All also ruins current selection, moving the cursor to the beginning of the file even if it has not found any matches. Fortunately, the Find Next/Previous command will only change current selection if the match has been found. So that's what we use. If there is a mark in the text, it will get selected, otherwise, the selection won't change. Finally, the selection is replaced with an empty string if what's selected is a mark. The wrong cursor position after Move Selection Line Up/Down is always further in text than the right position (actually, it's on the next line), so we use Find Previous command to perform the search. Because of this little detail, the solution is actually pretty fast. Suggestion 4. Replace All should not alter current selection if no matches are found. The only remaining question is what symbol to use as a mark. I decided to use √ (221A, SQUARE ROOT character, which you can type with Option-V), but I'm not sure this is the best choice. Maybe it's better to use some character from Private Use Area (E000--F8FF)? Best regards, Sergei Yakovlev

PHPDoc scope syntax coloring?

by Clark Endrizzi

Hi all, I am pretty new to textmate and would like to know if it's possible to change the color of PHPdoc comments from normal comments. I've noticed since using a lot of PHPDoc stuff in my code that it looks more confusing than ever. Being able to change the color would help in making things more readable. I noticed there was a thread in 2006 that discussed this but it did not help me. Also, I tried setting the scope of "comment.documentation" in hopes that it my be the correct scope with no luck (it doesn't seem to match the scope or something because nothing changes even after restarting textmate). Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks, Clark Endrizzi

Importing Markdown posts to WordPress

by Dr. Drang

I apologize for being off-topic, but I think there's more expertise on this list than I'll find elsewhere. I'm thinking about moving my blog from Movable Type 3.2 to WordPress. As a test, I've set up a local WP installation and imported my old posts--all of which are written in Markdown. They look awful, primarily because the blocks of source code in many of my posts are not being imported properly. Here is what I've done: 1. Exported the MT 3.2 posts using MT's builtin export command. 2. Installed WP and the PHP-MarkdownExtra plugin. Activated the plugin. 3. Imported into WP the text file that came out of the MT export process. The biggest problem seems to be that WP isn't recognizing the Markdown formatting of the exported posts. What should be enclosed by <pre><code>...</code></pre> are enclosed by simple paragraph tags instead. Has anyone here experienced and solved this problem? -- Dr. Drang

[XML] block folding bug

by Sergei Yakovlev

Hi! In XML bundle, the block doesn't fold properly if the closing tag is not on a separate line. Example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <document> <page>This tag block doesn't fold properly. It folds as if '/document' tag closes it. The closing tag is on the same line.</page> <page>This tag block folds properly. The closing tag is on a separate line. </page> </document> Cheers, Sergei Yakovlev

A fix for Move Selection Line Up/Down and suggestions for TextMate

by Сергей Яковлев

Hi! A well-known problem with Move Selection Line Up/Down commands (Control-Command-Up/Down) is that if you use them without selection (which means "move current line"), the cursor ends up in the wrong place. This has been bugging me and my friends for quite some time, so I wrote a fix. It's two macros overriding default key equivalents, which you can find attached to the bug description at http://macromates.com/ticket/show? ticket_id=58C52785 . Please tell if this works for you. Also, is it possible to put this fix into some standard TextMate bundle like Text.tmbundle, so that all TextMate users enjoy it? (Until it is fixed in the new engine of TextMate 2.) What is the best way to do it? This is my first experience in TextMate programming, and several times I've been stuck in various dead-ends. What follows is a somewhat long description of how I approached the problem along with some suggestions on making TextMate easier to program. Most people would like to skip this. So, my first (rather silly) attempt was a huge Ruby program which replicated functionality of Move Selection Line Up/Down and depended on my assumption that the cursor is always at the end of selection (potentially allowing me to calculate all the necessary offsets in the file). Well, it turned out that my assumption was simply not true, as the cursor can be anywhere inside the selection, depending on how you've selected the text. Suggestion 1. It would be useful if TextMate had variables like $TM_SELECTION_START and $TM_SELECTION_END which would return the corresponding offsets in the file (or the cursor offset, if nothing is selected). On a second attempt, I decided that I should instead go with the built-in commands, simply correcting the cursor position for the special case when nothing is selected. So we remember current cursor position, call Move Selection Line Up/Down, and move the cursor back to remembered position if nothing is selected. There are two problems here. First, you can only call built-in commands from macros, and it is not possible to remember values through the steps of a macro. Second, there is no direct way to reposition the cursor. One indirect way to achieve this is to insert a snippet with a $0 variable. However, to move the cursor to arbitrary position in this fashion, we need an output option like "Replace Document as Snippet", which is not available. Because of these two problems, I decided to use TMTOOLS plugin, which has "call macro" (for calling arbitrary macros and built-in commands from commands) and "set caretTo" (for setting the cursor position). I got a working solution, but it had a delay of 0.5 to 1 s, which was too slow to be useful. Suggestion 2. Add a way to set "global" environment variables programmatically (from commands). These "global" variables should be available to all subsequently called commands (and other bundle items) until explicitly unset. Suggestion 3. Replace output options "Insert as Text" and "Insert as Snippet" with just one option, "Insert", and add a checkbox "as Snippet" to the right. This would add such useful options as "Replace Selected Text as Snippet", "Replace Document as Snippet" and "Create New Document as Snippet" without making the list of options too long. So, on a third (and final) attempt, I dropped TMTOOLS and returned to the idea of a macro. Inspired by Duane Johnson's solution for multiple insertion points, I decided to use a special symbol (mark) to "remember" the initial position of the cursor. So we insert the mark at the cursor (if nothing is selected), call Move Selection Line Up/Down, and replace the mark with empty string (if nothing is selected), which moves the cursor there as a side-effect. The problem here is that Replace command always replaces current selection with replace buffer, even if it doesn't match the find buffer, which ruins the case when something has already been selected in the beginning. Replace All also ruins current selection, moving the cursor to the beginning of the file even if it has not found any matches. Fortunately, the Find Next/Previous command will only change current selection if the match has been found. So that's what we use. If there is a mark in the text, it will get selected, otherwise, the selection won't change. Finally, the selection is replaced with an empty string if what's selected is a mark.

Subversion bundle no longer uploading to repository for commits

by Daryl Manning

This is a strange one. The other day my Subversion commits have suddenly stopped working in terms of uploading to the repository. I ctrl-shift-A, use the commit and get the window for commiting the files I've highlighted and the -m message window. Enter a message... All good. When I hit Commit however, I get the Subversion Commit - "Transmitting File data" window and the barber pole but the window never comes back with either a dialogue box for the password for the user or anything at all. I end up having to quite Textmate in order to kill it and then doing a command line svn cleanup on the files that I was trying to upload. Handling svn through the command line with svn ci file.rhtml -m "blah de blah" works fine however. Does anyone have any idea of what may be causing this and how to correct it ? I've gotten so used to the svn budle it's really cramping my style now... thanks ! Daryl. PS> OSX 10.4.11, Textmate Version 1.5.7 (1436), svn, version 1.4.5 (r25188)

Bundles, stdin and encoding

by Álex Bueno

Hi, I've been trying to make a TM command to convert text encodings (with a nice little tm_dialog that took a while to figure out but now works very well). But for some reason, it won't read the file correctly using stdin. So that this works: iconv -f $ENC -t UTF8 "$TM_FILEPATH" But this does not (nor do other variations on the theme using stdin): iconv -f $ENC -t UTF8 < /dev/stdin TM seems to do something to the text to change its encoding, so that iconv cannot convert properly. Even stranger than that, some encodings trigger this error: /usr/bin/iconv: conversion from "SHIFT_JISX0213" unsupported /usr/bin/iconv: try '/usr/bin/iconv -l' to get the list of supported encodings Does anyone have an idea about what's going on here? Thanks, Alex

contents of your Textmate system library dir ?

by Artie Ziff

I'm wondering if the contents of my "/Library/Application Support/Textmate" directory is correct after checkout from svn. Should it be this: Bundles/ Support/ or this: Bundles/ Conventions.txt Disabled Bundles/ LICENSE Manual/ PlugIns/ README Review/ Support/ Themes/ Tools/ Work in Progress/ Perhaps I invoked a checkout on the wrong directory? Ultimately I am trying to see all the Bundles in the Bundle directory. I'm unable to find ODCompletion items even though I see them in the file system. Thank you! az

Updated MultiMarkdown Bundle for TexMate

by Fletcher T. Penney

I updated the MultiMarkdown TextMate bundle today. This update fixes a problem that Leopard users were having --- or at least I think it does. It still works for me in Tiger, and I hear reports that this fixes the problem Leopard users were having. Specifically, they were getting an error message like: /bin/bash: line 2: cd: ~/Library/Application\ Support/MultiMarkdown: No such file or directory /bin/bash: line 3: cd: bin: No such file or directory /bin/bash: line 5: ./multimarkdown2XHTML.pl: No such file or directory This was caused by an apparent change in the way the shell works under Leopard. Please let me know if you continue to have trouble with this, and thanks to everyone who helped track down this bug. Download the new version from: * <http://files.fletcherpenney.net/MultiMarkdownForTextMate.zip> -- Fletcher T. Penney fletcher(a)fletcherpenney.net If you start out depressed, everything's kind of a pleasant surprise. - Lloyd (John Cusack) in Say Anything

tab completion for NSArray

by Artie Ziff

Hi, While watching the 2nd obj-C screencast, I noticed Allan was getting a tab-completion on the word NSArray. Is it possible that particular tab-completion was removed from Textmate since the screencast was created? Or might I not have all the obj-C bundles? FTR... I get a rewrite/insertion of this: NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray array]; when I do a tab completion on the word: array Perhaps creating such a tab-completion is so simple I can create my own? Do some bundles exist which are not distributed via the textmate svn repository? Thanks... az

No - MultiMarkdown belongs in Application Support - not in the textmate bundle. If it's in the bundle, then it's not accessible to other programs that use MultiMarkdown. The problem here appears to be that Leopard changes the way the shell and the TextMate variables work.

obj-C snippet "method", do you see same behavior?

by Artie Ziff

Hello, I notice the objective-C snippet called "method" (invoked with control-shift-m) is producing 3 spaces as indent before the "return nil;" statement. I check the snippet in the bundle editor and see it is indeed a tab in the code. What might be causing the output of the snippet to become three spaces in the objective c file? My soft tabs are set for 4 spaces. Thank you for any advice. Cheers, -az snippet code pasted here for convenience: - (${1:id})${2:${TM_SELECTED_TEXT:method}}${3::(${4:id})${5:${4/(NS([AEIOQUY])?(\w+).*)|(.)?.*/(?1:a(?2:n$2)$3:(?4:anArgument))/}}} {$0${1/^(void|IBAction)$|(.*)/(?2: return nil;)/} }

Apache Bundle: Log Locations

by Takaaki Kato

Hi, "Tail Access Log" and "Tail Error Log" in Apache Bundle currently try to check * /var/log/httpd/access_log * /var/log/httpd/error_log This worked on Tiger, I think. In Leopard, the files are by default located at * /var/log/apache2/access_log * /var/log/apache2/error_log Is there any plan to add a setting/preferences GUI for this bundle? Different people have different log locations. Takaaki -- Takaaki Kato http://samuraicoder.net

Re: citation completion can't find bibfile

by Kieran Healy

Hi, > Sorry my bad, I've been a bit rusty. TM_LATEX_BIB is supposed to > point to an actual bib file, not the directory. What you want is to > set the BIBINPUTS variable in TM to the directory path as well, like > you set it in bash_profile. (hopefully ;) ). I'm kind of surprised > this wasn't a problem earlier, if you had set TM_LATEX_BIB to that > directory. Let's hope this would fix it, I didn't have TM_LATEX_BIB set originally --- I put that in during my efforts to solve the problem. Now I've removed it again. BIBINPUTS was not set in TextMate. I set it and it returns '/Users/kjhealy/Library/ texmf/bibtex/bib:' from within TM. (This is the correct path.) But my problem persists. On the MacBook Pro, when I use the keyboard shortcut the menu pops up asking to create a label or a citation, and when I then select citation, nothing happens except the pointer changes to a cross. Same goes for the option when selected through the bundle menu. On the G5 desktop (which I currently don't have access to) the same thing was happening except I was getting the "Can't find any files named 'bibname'" tooltip. Kieran

Leo Laporte gives Textmate max props...

by xolela＠mac.com

In the MacBreak video podcast (#96) for 12/12/2007, Leo features his fav text editors & overwhelming votes for textmate while giving an idea of its capabilities as well as history......... As someone that did his entire PhD (writing - in latex, running R, Sweave, stata etc..) all within textmate I would be remiss not to thank all those that are continuously developing textmate & the supporting bundles - Alan, Charilaos, Hadley, Brett, Kevin, Allan Schussman, just to mention but a few of many people whose bundles have been helpful.... I am now getting into experimenting with new experimental bundles - eg Hans R daemon which seem as if they will be making me even more productive during 2008.. Thanks to y'all that are behind textmate & all its associated bundles.... & best during 2008! danstan

Re: [TxMt] Python Import

Hey Alex, Thanks for your quick reply. I have added a couple of folders to the PYTHONPATH in my `.profile` configuration file in my home directory. PYTHONPATH=/Users/Tony/python:/Users/Tony/python/nodebox/src It turns out that if I comment out the nodebox source path from the above statement, `import objc` works fine. Unfortunately, the reason I wanted to import the objc module was because nodebox requires it (and requires the source tree be on the PYTHONPATH). Does any one know why things would work fine from a Terminal, but not Textmate. BTW, sys.path gives the same output in Textmate and the Terminal window, except that Textmate appends the Textmate path and the Desktop, while Terminal appends the present working directory.

Slow osascript in drag command

by Dr. Drang

I learned a few days ago (see http://xrl.us/bcuzs) that a drag command with a file type of "vcf" will work on cards dragged out of the Address Book as well as vcf files dragged from the Finder. (A temporary vcf file is made as you drag the card.) I thought it would be nice to have a formatted name and address appear in the TM window instead of the default vCard-formatted info. I had an AppleScript I'd written a while ago that I adapted for this purpose and called it from the drag command using 'osascript'. The drag command works, but it takes 20-30 seconds to run when operating on a card dragged from the Address Book. This isn't because the AppleScript itself is slow--it runs almost instantly when operating on a vCard file dragged from the Finder. In the interests of space, here's a simpler AppleScript that exhibits the same difference in runtime: on run argv tell application "Address Book" set theCard to (person id (item 1 of argv)) set out to name of theCard end tell return out end run I've called it "abname.scpt" and saved it in my ~/bin directory. (I've also saved it as an application and as text. The results are the same.) Here's the drag command: if [[ $TM_MODIFIER_FLAGS = "OPTION" ]]; then uid=`cat "$TM_DROPPED_FILE" |\ awk -F: '/^X\-ABUID/\ {printf "%s:ABPerson", substr($2,1,length($2)-1)}'` osascript $HOME/bin/abname.scpt "$uid" else cat "$TM_DROPPED_FILE" fi This is set up so that when I hold the Option key down as I drag, the name of the card is inserted in the TM window. If I *don't* hold the Option key down, the usual vCard data is inserted. The behavior on my main computer--an Intel iMac running OS X 10.4.11 with TM 1.5.7 (1436)--is like this: Dragging from Option key Time to run ---------------------------------------------------- file in Finder not pressed instant file in Finder pressed instant card from AB not pressed instant card from AB pressed 20+ seconds I'd like to know why there's such a difference and what I can do, if anything, to speed things up. -- Dr. Drang

Yes. > So what you would want to do is set TM_LATEX_BIB in TextMate's > preferences as well (TextMate -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Shell > Variables. Yes, this is set too, as the full path, /Users/kjhealy/Documents/bibs. The problem is now a little weirder. I have this issue on two Leopard machines. One is a G5 desktop and one is a recent Macbook Pro. I thought the problem might have to do with the symlinks I was using to point to ~/Documents/bibs. So I deleted the symlinks and moved all the bib files to ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bib. So there's no ~/Documents/ bibs anymore, and no symlinks to it. I changed TM_LATEX_BIB in TextMate to reflect this (and changed BIBINPUTS in bash_profile, too).

Leopard borks Multimarkdown? -> an answer

by John Laudun

I'm not going to call this solved, but I at least have a working solution -- and analysis (follows). Here's my weak (very weak) unix-fu understanding of the problem. The Preview function of the MMD bundle has three simple lines: > cd "${TM_MULTIMARKDOWN_PATH:-~/Library/Application Support/ MultiMarkdown}" > cd bin > ./multimarkdown2XHTML.pl After upgrading to Leopard, I was getting the following error report: > /bin/bash: line 2: cd: ~/Library/Application Support/MultiMarkdown: No such file or directory > /bin/bash: line 3: cd: bin: No such file or directory > /bin/bash: line 4: ./multimarkdown2XHTML.pl: No such file or directory Because my unix-fu is so very, very (very) weak, it took me the longest time to realize that the Bash shell wasn't seeing the directory. I tested it by running > cd "~/Library/Application Support/MultiMarkdown" No such file or directory I tried changing it to the more usual: cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/MultiMarkdown Presto! It worked. I changed the first line in the MMD Preview to the above and Preview now works like it used to. Now you can all stop chuckling at how slow I am, but my question is: has anyone else encountered this problem? Surely I'm not the only MMD adherent who has upgraded to Leopard? (I'm hoping the problem wasn't me being goofy, but it could be.) Any corrections to my analysis are welcome and will be regarded as contributing to my education. Please, no rulers on the knuckles. It's the holidays and all. john

help finding "Format Method Signature"

by Artie Ziff

Greetings tm users... In the 2nd obj-c screencast: <http://macromates.com/screencast/objective_c_part_2.mov> Shortly into this demo (in the first 20%) ... just after the insertion of the delegate method "outlineView", Allan begins to introduce a reformatting command (a bundle command?). After he shows what the command is based on -- a command in the menu "Text->Reformat Paragraph" used to reformat comments -- he moves the cursor to the bottom of the window and presses on a UI element that looks like a gear. This brings up a long list of bundle commands with their associated icons (C, S, M, etc). When I press this UI element, I get a popup menu of only a few items: Help Documentation for Selection --- Language Boiler Plate -> Accessor Methods For -> Common Object Calls -> Object Instantiations -> Idioms -> --- and about 6 more items. Perhaps there was a change in Textmate or I am missing something in the GUI? How do I see the pop up menu as shown in the screencast? Thank you! AZ

I downloaded the current versions of the TM bundle AND the separate Multimarkdown folder that gets placed in the Application Support folder AND I went ahead and created a TM_MULTIMARKDOWN_PATH shell variable in my preferences that points to ~/Library/Application Support/MultiMarkdown (Can I leave the space in like that?) And I'm still seeing the same three lines of reported errors when I do a Preview and use the Multimarkdown option of export to XHTML. The preview from within the Markdown bundle works fine, but, of course, it doesn't support things like external style sheets like Fletcher's MMD bundle does.

citation completion can't find bibfile

by Kieran Healy

Hi, TextMate's LaTeX bundle can't find my bib files when using the citation completion commands. It returns the error, "Can't find any files named 'bibname'", where bibname is the name of my bib file. The bib files are in a local directory, ~/Documents/bibs. There is a symbolic link to this directory in ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bib. Doing kpsewhich -show-path=bib returns > /Users/kjhealy/Documents/bibs:.:/Users/kjhealy/Library/texmf/bibtex/ > bib//:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.local/bibtex/bib//:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/ > texmf.pkgs/bibtex/bib//:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.gwtex/bibtex/ > bib//:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/bibtex/bib//:!!/usr/local/ > gwTeX/texmf/bibtex/bib//:/Users/kjhealy/Library/texmf/bibtex///:!!/ > usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.local/bibtex///:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.pkgs/ > bibtex///:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.gwtex/bibtex///:!!/usr/local/ > gwTeX/texmf.texlive/bibtex///:!!/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf/bibtex/// TM_LATEX_BIB is set to /Users/kjhealy/Documents/bibs. Latex documents will compile happily (using latexmk.pl) within TextMate, including their bibliographies. It's just the citation completion within documents that isn't working. My Latex bundle and Support folder are at revision 8696. I'm running Leopard (10.5.1) and TextMate 1.5.7 (1436). Any hints on why this isn't working as it should? Kieran

Leopard borks Multimarkdown?

by John Laudun

So I finally upgraded to Leopard, but somehow my Multimarkdown bundle got borked? I went to preview a document in XHTML and got this: /bin/bash: line 2: cd: ~/Library/Application Support/MultiMarkdown: No such file or directory /bin/bash: line 3: cd: bin: No such file or directory /bin/bash: line 4: ./multimarkdown2XHTML.pl: No such file or directory I remembered having some difficulties with this a while ago, but I couldn't remember what I had done to straighten it out. I went to the bundle's help file, thinking it might jog my memory, but it too is coming up with a similar error report. Is this a problem a re-install will solve? It's late and I don't think I'm seeing the obvious. john

Python Import

by Tony S Yu

Hi, This is probably some stupid mistake on my part, but I'm having problems with importing the objc package in Python. When I try to import it, I get the following error: ImportError: No module named objc What's strange, is I can import objc from a terminal window, without any problems. I made sure that Textmate is running the same install of python, so that's not the problem. All other packages I've tried import without problems. In case you're interested, I'm running Python 2.5.1 (default Leopard install) with Textmate build 1436. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, -Tony

Extending Built In Languages...

Hi Everyone, What I want to do, is extend the css & js definitions to have alternate start / end tags... For javascript, I want to match the normal <script></script> tags, but I also want to have it use <?php $this->js()->start() ?> / <?php $this->js()->end() ?> (Same for css, except using "css()") How can I go about doing this?

Matlab bundle

by Jonas Müller

Hello all, after searching the list archive for a while, I have hacked together a short command to run Matlab straight from within textmate. The current problem is (as has been discussed on the list previously) that Matlab has to be launched from scratch every time (takes about 5s for simple hello-world scripts to execute). Is there a maintainer for the Matlab bundle? Is there anyone around who knows how to access the current Matlab session? Best, Jonas

[ANN] SecondLife LSL Bundle

by Thomas Aylott - subtleGradient

I just committed a new bundle for review, SecondLife LSL http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Review/Bundles/SecondLife%20LSL.tmb… I forget why I never shared it before. Seems pretty done. There's code completion and everything. There's even contextual help set to ⌃h (ctrl-h) which searches the lsl wiki. I think I used someone else's language bundle to start out with and then modified it, but I can't remember at this point, so I'll take all the credit ;) It's been a long while since I've played with LSL. But I don't think the language has changed much in the meantime. Let me know if you have any issues. —Thomas Aylott – subtleGradient—

how to select blocks of text, as in this screencast

by Artie Ziff

Hello, I saw in this screencast: <http://macromates.com/screencast/objective-c_part_1.mov> referenced from this page: <http://blog.macromates.com/2006/graceful-objective-c-snippets/> a block of text being selected (two times, in fact). It appears the text being selected is between curly braces. I looked through the Bundle Editor and also the "show all commands" dump but did not locate the command. Any ideas out there? Thank you!

There was a problem reading the preferences file, continuing with defaults

by Maxime Boissonneault

Hey, I just got this message when compiling something that I used to compile without any problem before. This causes me lots of trouble since it now compiles with pdftex instead of latex... so my eps images don't work. I searched on Google and I found something about the plist read and to install Leopard... THIS IS NOT AN OPTION! I don't plan on installing Leopard now and not before a few months. Please tell me the fix for it. Is it possible to correct the plist file so that it works ? I don't care if it's a temporary fix, I need my compiler NOW.

I am wondering what hot-keys I can use to make and eliminate comments for the current line or for the selected lines? I am using TextMate with default setting.

Multimarkdown CSS font-size not being respected on export

by John Laudun

I now use Textmate for all my drafting, and when I need to share a draft with someone I simply e-mail as plain text or export an RTF for better printing. I'm using Multimarkdown so that I can link to established style sheets hosted on my personal website. I've tweaked the "Convert to RTF" command in the MMD bundle to export to Nisus Writer Express -- I'm hoping to develop a script or command which will automatically create an appropriate header (based on some variable, I'm not sure yet) -- but I was having the same problem in TextEdit. What's that problem? Even though I've got "font-size: 12pt;" literally littered everywhere in the CSS file (see below), I'm seeing 16pt type either on direct export or if I preview in Textmate's built- in browser and then copy and paste out to an RTF editor. The CSS involved is like this: @page { size: auto; margin: 1in 1.5in 1in 1.5in; orphans: 2; widows: 2; } body { font-family: "Gentium Basic"; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-size: 12pt; } h1 { letter-spacing: 2pt; font-weight: bold; font-variant: uppercase; margin-top: 4em; page-break-after: avoid; font-size: 12pt; } etc. What am I doing wrong?

Open new HTML Output Window

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, maybe this is a very old hut, but still... I really would like to be able to open an HTML page/code as TM HTML output window from inside of an already opened HTML output window because I need the TextMate.system() command. There're several ways in my mind: 1) Javascript [don't work] window.open('adress') 2) HTML [don't work] <a href='adress' target='_new'></a> 3) shell [don't work] mate -html 'adress' or cat 'adress' | mate -html 4) shell + Dialog 1/2 [don't know whether this would be possible, how can I set the URL, and does TextMate.system() work?] Write a nib containing a single WebView object Any advices, hints? Or is this a feature request? I only need this simple HTML output window without any buttons etc. I believe - technically seen - it shouldn't be a problem ( Or? ) Thanks, --Hans

Help! Font rendering suddenly degraded. Have deleted ATS caches.

by Michael Johnston

Hi, I've happily used textmate for about 2 years now and I love it -- thank you macromates for a great tool. Last night in the middle of a work session the font rendering of textmate suddenly degraded. It now looks like this: (I use QuickType mono) http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?7d959429cb.gif This is what it looked like before, more or less, and still looks like in textedit (but without syntax coloring of course: http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?42baf8bee8.gif Has anyone encountered this issue before? What things can I try to get back to normal? All fonts are affected, not just QuickType mono 1. Running 10.5 on a macbook pro 2. Happened during a time machine backup. I mention this because I had problems with ATS server and the font caches while getting Time machine backups working, where ats would start consuming a whole core for hours and have to be killed. This was a week ago, and that problem seemed to go away after deleting all Cache folders, turning off spotlight indexing & backing up of Cache folders etc. 3. I've already deleted the ATS caches & rebooted as per the wiki page I'm in a bit of a panic -- have a lot of work to do in two projects and doing it with my most important productivity tool crippled is a terrifying prospect :/ (I'm sure there are going to be people who don't think the first text is much harder to read than the second, but it is for me and the font rendering is one of the top 5 reasons I use a mac, so this is not intended to open that whole discussion. I just want to know how to get back what I'm used to looking at 8 hours a day :)) Cheers, Michael Johnston lastobelus(a)mac.com

Puthon folding idea (not really mine)

by Alexey Blinov

Hi! I like a code folding but simce i write Python in TM - code folding doesn't work right... Sometimes its ok but some - weird. So just stop fold code. Its fine but... Some time ago i read one article about Django and find some interesting idea in that article - code folding markers for vim. Here is a short description: we need to add new folding rule to fold code based on that pair of markers #{{{ def test ... #}}} add regexp for folding and some macros/snippets doesn't hard (i hope ;) and we will have working solution for Python (or any other lang) right now. I mean in 1.5+ version ;-) Link to full story about folding in vim: http://www.amitu.com/blog/2007/july/vim-python-code-folding-and-my-vimrc/ Any ideas?

Latex bundle - typeset and view failing to find errors, and "the document *.pdf could not be opened"

by Toby Gee

I'm running Textmate build 1436. I realised earlier today that something weird was going on - Textmate seemed to think I'd lost a $ somewhere, but no errors were coming up when I ran Typeset & View. I tried an experiment and added in some more errors, none of which were showing up. I then tried processing the same file in Texshop, which found all the errors. I wondered if this might be due to me not having the latest Latex bundle installed. I searched for a while to find out how to update the bundle, couldn't find anything (perhaps it updates automatically?!) and then installed GetBundle and opted to update all bundles. I then tried again, and found that on top of failing to show any errors, whenever I try to pdflatex a file an error message pops up from Skim saying "the document *.pdf could not be opened" (where *=document name). I then tried opening the pdf file in Preview, which said "File error. Could not open the file." At the bottom of the typeset and view window I see the following: Document 'prescribedlifts7.pdf' not open in application 133:228: execution error: Skim got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4 (-1728) Any help would be appreciated!

Latex not found

Hi all, I've enjoyed using TextMate a great deal and don't want to use the other Latex editors on my computer, but: - after updating to Leopard all was okay - I installed the latex Leopard fix and... - TextMate doesn't find pdflatex and suggests that the path is not there or Latex isn't installed - I know that Latex is installed because Texshop continues to find it and run it happily - I've updated (via a complete re-install of Mactex) Latex, but it still isn't found by Textmate and is by Texshop - I've looked at the manual and see that I should update/modify the path, but I'm not sure where to and how to update it. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated, Thanks Ben -- Dr Ben Wooliscroft Senior Lecturer, University of Otago Marketing Department Currently on sabbatical at the Wirtschaft Universität, Vienna Postal address: Dr Ben Wooliscroft Marketing Scheuch 3.OG [C] WU-Wien, Augasse 2-6, A-1090 Wien Austria

PyMate ignores first exception

by Daniel Link

Hi, I started using wxPython lately and am a little surprised by PyMate's reaction to exceptions. Try this: > #!/usr/bin/env python > import wx > > def OnRaiseException(e): > raise "See?" > > app = wx.PySimpleApp() > frame = wx.Frame(None, wx.ID_ANY, "Hello World") > > button = wx.Button(frame, 100, "Raise Exception") > wx.EVT_BUTTON(button, 100, OnRaiseException) > > frame.Show(True) > app.MainLoop() Only on the second button click the traceback reaches PyMate: > Error in sys.excepthook: > Traceback (most recent call last): > method tm_excepthook in sitecustomize.py at line 66 > io = fdopen(error_fd, 'w') > OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor > > Original exception was: > Traceback (most recent call last): > method OnRaiseException in test.py at line 5 > raise "See?" > See?

find email address in address book

by Grant Hollingworth

I updated the Find Email Address in Address Book command from last year[1] to use RubyCocoa and the AddressBook framework. It seems a lot faster than using contacts or lbdb, and unlike AppleScript it works when the Address Book is closed. I tried changing the menu to use TextMate::UI.menu, but tm_dialog just hangs... I guess there's some sort of OSX namespace conflict going on?

Re: [TxMt] latex bundle: citation completion hangs

by Bilal Barakat

Haris, thanks for the offer to look at my .bib file. Through elimination I have now established that the problem is caused by the entry below. I don't normally add lots of custom fields, these were automatically created when I imported the entry from a database. I don't need any of the custom fields and deleting them solves my problem. A question of general interest remains however. Which of the following two holds: - the exporting database and/or Bibdesk on import create non-standard/ invalid bibtex code, or - the TM latex bundle has a bug in that it hangs on valid custom fields it should simply ignore? In other words, who should I file a bug with?

QL-TextMate Plugin

by Xavier Cambar

Hi there, I've just downloaded Ciaran's tmplugin+QLGenerator, and I'm very happy with it. If I got it right, the plugin generates a screenshot and then displays it within QL. There's just a little downside to it: The dimension and readability of the generated screenshots are implied by the number of columns and rows of the documents, which sometimes produce weird results. I posted 2 screenshots to make it clearer. The first one is the most significant, and the second one is to povide an example of acceptably- readable scrrenshot. Suggestion: Couldn't the screenshot be generated in a panel with a fixed number of columns, and be of fixed width? Thanks and congrats anyway, I was bored of black and white QLing my source files!

When I quit it, the following is inserted in my TM document: /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:134:in `parse_bibfile': Interrupt from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:115:in `map' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:115:in `parse_bibfile' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:250:in `cite_scan' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:247:in `each' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:247:in `cite_scan' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:246:in `call' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:215:in `recursive_scan' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:214:in `each' ... 8 levels... from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:203:in `recursive_scan' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:254:in `cite_scan' from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ Latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:63:in `get_citations' from /tmp/temp_textmate.MQuf7X:8 I think it worked correctly at some point in the past. Any ideas on what's going wrong here? Any help would be much appreciated. Bilal.

Blogging bundle query

by Nigel Green

Hi all, Apologies if this is an old query, but I've tried finding the answer in the archives and nothing seems to fit with what I need. I have set up my blog and can post entries and edit entries just fine, but if I try and add a category (using the "tab-cat" snippet) then I get an error message: "Received exception:Wrong type NilClass. Not allowed! No categories are available!" Does anyone know why this might happen with categories when I can access posts remotely? Many thanks, Nigel

Copy bundles between machines

by Paul Collins

Hi all, I have recently been set up with Textmate at work and I want to export all the settings I have created over time on my own version. IE, the bundle and the themes. I would like to know, do the "bundles" and "themes" folders in /library contain all my customizations? I have installed a HTML bundle a while back, but I have also added my own snippets and key commands to this. Will this all be saved in the single bundle? Thanks for any help.

LaTeX equation tooltip preview

by baptiste auguie

Hi Textmate fellows, I've always been slightly jealous of emacs' auctex mode with previewing of images and equations in a TeX document. I understand the issue of dealing with fancy fonts in a source editor, but would it be possible to create a preview of parts of the code in the form of tooltips? I've been thinking of that for a while, considering the use of latex2html to generate images, or the sleek LaTeXit freeware. These two would really slow down the process, as they call latex and generate images. Now I think I've just found the ultimate tool: http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/jsMath/welcome.html This is by far the best math publishing solution I've seen on the web when it comes to including math on html pages (MathML, although promising, is really lacking support). _____________________________________________________________________________ Ne gardez plus qu'une seule adresse mail !

modifier key to insert filepath

Has anyone come up with a command or whatnot so that by holding down a modifier key we can drag files from the Finder to an open document, and have it insert the absolute path (instead of the file contents)? Is this doable right now? Thanks, Eric

ruby folding: do... end.a_method

by Niko Dittmann

Hi everone. I recently tried to make ruby folding work all through our rails project and almost succeeded. Typical offenders are p.e. do... end statements in one line (we just use {} now). But I have problems with do... end blocks which directly get a method sent to: blabla.collect do |whatever| format(whatever) end.join(',') Here the folding stop working for everything that follows in the document and in this case it's difficult to rewrite the code to make folding work (suggestions highly appreciated). I tried to modify the Ruby language grammar to no avail and it seems that folding should work here: | (^|;) \s*+ end \. .* $ Shouldn't this line within the foldingStopMarkers match? I'm confused and would be grateful for any help. Regards, Niko.

Textmate and spaces?

by Geoff Beier

>From a quick look at the archives, it looks like at least a few people on this list have been using Textmate on Leopard... has anyone had trouble with spaces? I've noticed that sometimes when I have textmate windows on spaces other than space 1, all the windows will become inaccessible. The only way I can make them work again is to disable spaces. This is especially pronounced if I launch textmate from another space. Has anyone noticed this or found a work-around? Thanks Geoff

For all R users: a R daemon running 'inside' of TM (first trial)

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, here comes a suggestion for all R users. I wrote a tiny R daemon bundle in order to run R 'inside' of TM. There is no need to start RGUI etc. I found a naive way to do it and it turns out, at least for me, it's quite useful. So my question is whether this approach is also useful for others. If yes, I/we can elaborte this bundle. Demo Movie (4.3MB) http://www.bibiko.de/Rsession.mov Up to now you can do the following: -install this bundle R daemon -open new document, set the language to R or R console, type 'start' and press TAB -R daemon will be installed into $HOME/Rdaemon (please check the directory if you don't use it!) -after some seconds you can type any command into that window and press 'NUMPAD-ENTER' -the result will be inserted into the current document -if you want to execute a selection the output will be written into the file r_res (useful if you write a script) -errors/warnings will be output as tooltip (but not every error, then you have to check 'geterrmessage()'!) -there is a progress bar showing the progress of R's calculation -the entire session you can find in r_out (the nice side-effect is that even if the R daemon, or TM, or the Mac crashes you have at least r_out to reconstruct the last session) -the R daemon listens at the named pipe r_in -errors/warnings are written to r_err -if you know that the command will take some minutes you can execute this command in the background (SHIFT+NUMPAD-ENTER); the result will be written into r_res; by doing so you can send a task to R while writing further stuff in TM (I used sink() for that) -R daemon comes with its own persistant history list (i.e. if you quit the R daemon and you start it again you also have all commands from the last session (OPT+ARROWUP/DOWN CTRL+OPT+ARROWUP for a list [last command comes first])) -I rewrote the help for the current word as an HTML page using frames -Autocomplete and command template now works case-sensitive meaning if you look for 'mat' you won't get 'Math.'. Furthermore it also works for functions defined in the current session! -I included an example TM project Rsession ($HOME/Rdaemon). -note 1: plot R runs as normal session in a hidden Terminal. Thus one has to use X11 for plotting into the null device. If such a device is open and you quit X11 the R daemon will quit immediately!! I cannot catch this yet. CTRL+NUMPAD-ENTER can show the current plot as PDF. I set the the pdf file to ~/Rdaemon/plots/Rplot.pdf -note 2: quit You can type 'q()', delete the prompt and answer the question, or type kill TAB to kill it. -known pitfall 1: readline In principal readline("prompt") works, but if 'prompt' is prompted, you have to delete it or press ENTER to insert a value. Otherwise R will get the entire line a input (I work on it) -known pitfall 2: synchronisation One tricky point is the synchronisation of the output. I went the way to look for R's CPU coverage. If this is zero I assume that R's ready. One can test this if you execute 'c(1:200000)'. If you see the last line mentioning you reached the max line etc. everything is OK, if not one has to fine-tune it. It's done via a tiny sleep command. As I already mentioned this is written very fast!! Esp. the daemon which is written in Ruby needs some help from Ruby experts ;) With R daemon one has the full control meaning you can do thousand of nifty things ;) Any comments? Cheers, --Hans

How to do svn mv on rename?

by Oliver Meyn

Hi, When I have a project checked out of Subversion (svn) and want to change a file's name, the TextMate rename appears to do a file system rename. Doing that confuses svn and would require an svn add to the repository, which throws away the history of the file under its old name. Is there a way to have Rename do an svn mv instead of file system mv?

yank stopped working

by dmw

Very recently, yank (C-y) as stopped working for me. Instead of inserting text from the kill ring, it switches focus to the gear button on the project drawer. I don't know what I've done to cause this change. I thought it might have been TextExpander, but the problem persists after uninstalling it. There is no mapping set for C-y in the keyboard pref pane. C-y works in other Cocoa apps. I would much appreciate any troubleshooting suggestions. Mac OS X 10.5.1 Intel TextMate 1.5.7 (1436) Thanks.

Lining up code automatically - perl mainly

by Simon Holroyd

Hi, I've just started using TM, previously I used emacs. When I typed a perl line like: my $p = Base::Sub->new (id => 1234, name => "test"); I would only have to hit tab on each new line to move the cursor to below the appropriate place on the above line i.e. it auto formatted the code for me. TM doesn't seem to do this, which is annoying the hell out of me. Can someone help please? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Lining-up-code-automatically---perl-mainly-tf4958584.… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

minor bug with status command in svn bundle?

by Phil Schumm

Although I have used svn exclusively via the command line in the past, I'm really enjoying the convenience of the svn bundle -- especially when working within a project. I did, however, notice one minor problem which might be a bug. Say I have the following (invisible) directory named .foo: vampire-squid:~/Desktop/.foo pschumm$ svn status ? my-new-file M foobar.tex (note the period in the directory name, and the new file still unknown to svn). If I open the file foobar.tex in TextMate and use the status command from the svn bundle, the resulting output shows only the modified file (i.e., the new file does not appear in the output). However, if I remove the . from the directory name (i.e., change it from .foo to foo), then the output of the status command shows both files (i.e., it is consistent with the output of "svn status"). Thus, it would appear that when a period appears in the path, new files are not shown in the status output. This situation can arise if, say, you keep personal settings folders (which often start with a period) under version control. -- Phil
