Using PHP Markdown Extras with TextMate?

by Brooks Seymore

Tinkered around with Markdown today, found it quite enjoyable to use. Mostly. Where I found it lacking is when Markdown formatted text is within a div block, what with Markdown not working within block-level tags. Lookign for a workaround, I discovered [PHP Markdown Extra][1] by Michel Fortin, a script which expands the Markdown syntax to allow one to use Markdown within block-level tags. Is there a way to use that script within TextMate? [1]:http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/extra/ For those interested in seeing the problem, I've included the samples below. Pop them into a TextMate document composed in the Markdown langauage. The first will convert as I would like properly, the second, well, not so much. **Markdown, Working** example ======= [markdown][1] [1]:http://somesite.com/ **Markdown, Not Quite Working** <div> example ======= [markdown][1] [1]:http://somesite.com/ </div> Regards, Brooks

editing css

by Andreas Wahlin

When editing CSS (and possibly, other things as well) I find myself wanting to invert command+return behaviour. At least here, command+return will hop to a new line without breaking my current line at the caret, while return will hop to a new line taking with it all the contents right of the caret (like always). I'd like to invert this somehow. Also, I totally love how typing : in css gives you the smart ; ending, but I'd like a space after the : as well, how? thanks Andreas

slight change to prototype and scriptaculous bundle

by Andreas Wahlin

I like it, lots :) However, one little detail; I'd suggest changing the each snippet from each(function(${3:this_one}${4:,i}){$0}${5:.bind(this)}); to each(function(${3:this_one}${4:,i}) { $0 }${5:.bind(this)}); that is, "uncompress" it so to speak. Also, I'd like to change this_one to el or element, since I usually iterate over html elements, but that's just my own things. ______________________ Andreas Wahlin Webbutvecklare Webbhuset AB Östra Hamngatan 45, 411 10 Göteborg Telefon: 031-339 19 19, Direkt: 031-739 18 20, Fax: 031-711 12 20 www.webbhuset.se Privileged/confidential information may be contained in this message.

New app annoucement

by William Uther

Hi, Just thought I'd let everyone know that I've made a new app for use with TextMate. It is open source and described here: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~willu/ODBSuite/ Is is still early days and has many rough edges, but I think it's useful. I'm releasing early - we'll see if I have enough time to release often. :) The app is a command line app, odbeditor. It acts like the 'mate' command line program, but has a few advantages (and some disadvantages too :) usage: odbedit [-h] [-e editor] [-s saveScript] [-c closeScript] filename [filename ...] - It can be run from a remote shell. This means that you can ssh into your box and start TextMate remotely. (Yes, there are uses for this - it is the main reason I wrote the thing :) - It can call out to other scripts when the program is saved or closed (so you could scp the file somewhere, just to pull a random example out of the air.) - It will work with any ODB Suite editor (i.e. any editor that works with those FTP programs like Cyberduck.) Be well, Will :-}

Relative path in window title

removal of project tree's root item

by Simon Strandgaard

The root item in the project drawer, is wasting valuable screen space. all the sub-items is indented by ~20 pixels. 20 columns * ~700 rows = 14000 pixels wasted. The name of the root-item can be seen in the window title, so its redundant to have it in the project drawer as well. Well I could just hide the project drawer... Thanks :-) -- Simon Strandgaard

textmate closed unexpectedly after LaTeX Typeset & View

by Andreas Duus Pape

...and I'm pretty confident it doesn't get to the "view." Not much activity to report: it brings up the html window which says "Compiling LaTeX...." and then it thinks for a little while and then textmate quits entirely. Any thoughts? Thanks! (I'm restoring my machine, so this is my restored home folder with a reinstall of TextMate, if that might be the source of the errors somehow.)

Re: Re: Relative path in window title

by Jeffrey R. Gould

You can always command-click the window title. However I agree it would be nice to see the filepath, maybe make this an option in the preferences. Until then, you can always set up a key command, here's what I did (using growlnotify) /usr/local/bin/growlnotify -n "/Applications/TextMate" -I "/ Applications/TextMate.app" -t "$TM_FILEPATH" -m "Is the current path for $TM_FILENAME"

mailing list access

by rusty

allan: in the earlier days of textmate, i was able to send to textmate(a)lists.macromates.com with a bogus address (trying to avoid spam). that doesn't work anymore. for the sake of those who read the archives, can you document the access restrictions to the mailing list? either in a reply, or even better, on the community page. would be nice to have a way to send without being subscribed, if you can think of one. a bogus subscription address that's allowed. or a magic text cookie of some sort in the body of the message (probably shouldn't be 'viagra' =). unrelated, thank you: >> a fix for the 'path of document' that's in the dictionary would work. > > FYI this has been near the top of my to-do for some time now great. and congratulations on your major award.

spaces in parentheses

by Rob McBroom

When coding, I prefer to have things like this: something( "blah" ); Rather than: something("blah"); To accomplish this, I had created a scope called "meta.parentheses" which only applied if the cursor was between empty matching parentheses. I then had a snippet, with the spacebar as the key equivalent and meta.parentheses as the scope, that would insert [space]$0[space]. This made the spacebar behave normally inside parentheses unless they were empty, which is what I wanted. The problem: I noticed this morning that by adding the "meta.parentheses" scope to a particular Language Grammar, I wasn't getting updates for that language (my local modified copy taking precedence). Now, I probably set this up prior to when TextMate started storing things as deltas. Is it possible that if I duplicate the change, I will still see updates to the grammar in the future with my delta applied? Or perhaps a better question: I had added my new scope to the PHP grammar, but I'd really like the behavior in all "text" and "source" contexts. My searching of the archives led me to some discussions of applying a snippet to all scopes, but how can I add a scope to all languages (without missing out on updates)? Thanks. Rob

PHP delimiter highlighting

by Jeffrey R. Gould

I've been doing some searching today and haven't come up with much useful information on the subject, so I'm hoping someone here might know how to add highlighting to just the <?php , <? & ?> tags? I tried using source.php, but obviously that's too general. Also, on this topic, is there any place to find good documentation on the available scope selectors? Thanks, -Jeff

Automatically make document a tab, if saved in project's directory

by porneL

When I have directory open (in drawer) with files I work on, I create new document with cmd+N (I'm too lazy and forgetful to hit Cmd+Shift+N ;). When I save this document in project's directory, it remains open in TM as an individual file, with it's own window. Even if I open the same file by clicking in drawer, separate window remains separate and I end up same document in both tab and window. Is it possible to automatically "tabify" documents when they're saved in a directory that's visible in drawer of some open project? "Open" command does that already. -- regards, porneL

running command to remote computer via ssh

by Charles Stuart

Hi, Is is possible to create a bundle command which would run a specified command to a remote computer via ssh? I am running Mac OS X, and I use Samba + ssh to work on my dev environment which is a Linux box. I repeatedly have to run a command to refresh the environment to check changes. I tried using quicksilver and the terminal plugin to send the command, but I couldn't figure out how to have it point the command to the active terminal window which was already ssh'd to dev box. I'm thinking the best solution might be to set up passwordless authentication via SSH and set the remote computer details in the script? best, Charles

Fortran Folding Markers

by guerom00

Hi everyone, I've made myself some folding markers for Fortran which look like this : foldingStartMarker = '(^[\t ]*((?i:real|complex|integer)(.*)\s)*\b (?i:subroutine|program|module|function)\b(.*)$)|(^\s*\b(\w*)\s*:\s* \b(?i:do)\b|^\s*\b(?i:do)\b)|(^\s*(\b(?i:IF)\b)(.*)(\b(?i:THEN)\b))|(^\s* \b(\w*)\s*:\s*(\b(?i:IF)\b)(.*)(\b(?i:THEN)\b))'; foldingStopMarker = '^\s*\b(?i:end\sprogram|end\sfunction| end\ssubroutine|end\smodule|endif|enddo|end\sif|end\sdo)\b'; They seem to work quite allright except for the old-fashioned do-loop of Fortran 77 which reads : do 10 i=1,10 some code here ....... 10 continue Note that the “continue” statement which ends the loop has the label “10” which matches the loop one. I've no idea how to implement folding markers for this syntax and any help is appreciated :) TIA

CSS Scope Selectors

by thomas Aylott

Howdy. Currently textmate supports Descendant selectors and Grouping. I would like to request support for Child selectors as well. That would be like "string>source" instead of "string source" <img style="<%= "stuff and #{ "things" }" %>" /> the word "things" is scoped as "meta.tag string source string source string" The Descendant selector "meta.tag string" affects both of the tag attribute string and all of the embedded source strings. But if it were a Child selector of "meta.tag>string", it would only affect the tag attribute string. thomas Aylott—subtleGradient

Doesn't switch to PHP automatically anymore

by minimal design

Did that happen to anyone before? When I switch from HTML to PHP files, TM doesn't switch the syntax highlighting automatically anymore... If I select it from the language menu I get my syntax coloring, but then switching back to HTML, it doesn't revert back to HTML highlighting... I constantly have to manually switch the language from PHP to HTML... I tried to look into the bundle and PHP doesn't have a "filetypes" but I don't think it's supposed to anyway right? Plus I thought the HTML bundle included the PHP one no? Or did that revert back to separate languages in the bundle editor? Thanks for any suggestion - Yann .........................................

Calling 'mate' remotely

by William Uther

Hi, Thanks for the previous help. I'm a little chagrined that they seemed obvious questions. I had looked for answers... honest. :) Anyway, I've got another use case that I could use some help with. I often ssh into another unix box, and occasionally need to edit a file while I'm there. With bbedit, I had a script that would ssh back into my mac and then open the remote file on the unix box. I'm trying to replicate that with TextMate. The closest I've found in the mailing list is this: http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/2006-February/008384.html My version is as follows. On the remote box I have a script called 'mate': ----- #! /bin/sh # Make sure we have the full path to the file if echo $1 | egrep ^/ - > /dev/null ; then path=$1 ; else path=`pwd`/$1 ; fi HOST=`hostname` echo Opening $path on ${SSH_CLIENT%% *} ssh willu@${SSH_CLIENT%% *} remoteOpen ${USER} ${HOST} "$path" ----- On my Mac I have this script called 'remoteOpen': ----- #!/bin/sh remUser=$1 remHost=$2 remPath=$3 remBase=`basename $remPath` remDir=`dirname $remPath` tempDir=`mktemp -d` || exit 1 localfile="${tempDir}/scp:${remHost}:${remBase}" localBackup="${tempDir}/backup" remLoc="${remUser}@${remHost}:${remPath}" echo "${remLoc}" > ${tempDir}/remLoc scp -Bpq "${remLoc}" "${localfile}" && cp "${localfile}" $ {localBackup} && osasc ript -e "tell app \"Terminal\" to do shell script \"mate -w $ {localfile}\"" if ! cmp -s "${localfile}" ${localBackup} ; then scp -Bpq "${localfile}" "${remLoc}" fi rm -rf ${tempDir} ----- I then have the following command for use within TextMate (instead of the normal 'save'): Save the current file then: ----- if [[ ${TM_FILEPATH} == */scp:* ]] ; then # this is an scp file # it has been saved by the time we get here # now just extract its remote name and scp it back localDir=`dirname $TM_FILEPATH` remLoc=`cat ${localDir}/remLoc` scp -Bpq "$TM_FILEPATH" "${remLoc}" && cp "$TM_FILEPATH" "$ {localDir}/backup" fi ----- This setup saves a backup of the remote version locally. If the local copy gets saved with the special command while you're editing, and the data is scp'd back to the other host, then the backup is updated. Otherwise, the difference is detected and the data is scp'd back to the remote box when the window is closed. Current issues: i) Most importantly, the 'mate' command doesn't work from a remote shell. This leads to the whole osascript workaround. Unfortunately, while Terminal is running a script it just queues up all the input to its other windows and waits for the script to end. This makes the current setup significantly less useful than the same setup using bbedit (where the 'bbedit' command does work from a remote terminal). ii) It would be nice if there was a way to tell textmate 'run this script when you write to that file'. Basically, make the 'mate' command have an equivalent to the ODB Editor Suite of Apple Events. I imagine some extra options like this: --title WindowTitle Start editing the new file with this window title instead of the file name as window title --onsave scriptPath When the file is saved, this script is run with the path to the file as an argument --onclose scriptPath When the file is closed (or Save As... is used to detach from the original file), this script is run with the path of the file as an argument and perhaps a final option: --on-reopen scriptPath Data This is a command line option that takes two arguments. If this file re-opened from the 'Open Recent >' menu then the script 'scriptPath' is run with 'Data' as an argument to get the path of the file to open. This set of options would allow third parties to implement the much-requested 'sftp' feature, as well as any other file access method they wanted to. Cheers, Will :-} P.S. I know - just use transmit or Cyberduck. The problem is that they require me to connect from the mac. I could modify my 'remoteOpen' script to use them instead of scp, and that would solve the 'detecting save' problem (point ii), but it wouldn't solve the worst problem, point i.

How to change scope of triple quoted strings in Python

Script to look up selected MacOS API

by Ryan Wilcox

Hello all, I'm starting to set up my environment to use TextMate instead of XCode's built in editor. The one thing I miss from XCode is its Code Sense. I really like having a quick reference of the API command I want. I know I want, say, to use CFBundleCopyResourceURL(), but I don't remember what to feed it. Since XCode doesn't provide a way to query for that information (thanks, Apple), I had to get it "another way". It seems that the easiest way to do that is to grep the framework header files myself. My script takes the selected word, finds it in the 10.4u SDKs, then makes a txmt:// style URL out of it, so you can click the link and go right to the proper line in the proper header file. The script is posted below. Hopefully it will be useful to you Carbon programmers out there, or maybe the kind Unix hands will see some optimization I can use to make it faster. _______________________________ find -L /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/*/Versions/Current/* | xargs grep -I -n $TM_SELECTED_TEXT | python -c "import fileinput, re ourRe = re.compile(r'(.+?):(.+?):(.+)') for each in fileinput.input(['-']): res = ourRe.match(each) if res: print '''<p><a href='txmt://open/?url=file://%s&line=%s'>%s</a></p>''' % ( res.group(1), res.group(2), res.group(3) )" _______________________________ Enjoy all!, _Ryan Wilcox -- Wilcox Development Solutions: <http://www.wilcoxd.com> Toolsmiths for the Internet Age PGP: 0x2F4E9C31

How can I make every file in a given (project) directory use shell script syntax highlighting

by William Scott

Hi folks: I am new to textmate and to the list. I have spent awhile with the manual but either I missed this or it is not in there (or maybe it can't be done). I keep all my zsh configuration files in /Library/init/zsh These include various files that are sourced, as well as shell script/ function files. Since the latter have #!/bin/zsh at the top, textmate does the right thing, but I would also like the other files, that set up my environment, define aliases, and so forth, to use the same syntax highlighting, even though they do not have #!/bin/zsh at the top. Is there a simple way to do this? Thanks. Bill

An INI grammar?

by Fritz Anderson

In hopes of figuring the language-sensitive parser out, I've been trying to make a grammar for .ini files. It appears my incomprehension is stark, as I can't get any satisfaction out of the grammar { scopeName = 'text.ini'; fileTypes = ( 'ini' ); foldingStartMarker = '^\['; foldingStopMarker = '.(?=^\[)'; } ... which I think specifies a folding range from the opening [ of a section, running to the character before the [ that begins the next section. TextMate puts a fold marker next to the section line, but no matching marker at the bottom of the section. Clicking the fold button has no effect. (Yes, the stop marker doesn't account for the end-of-file that closes the last section, but one challenge at a time.) What am I missing? -- F

Lout language definition?

by Alaric Snell-Pym

Hello there Has anyone thought about a language definition for the Lout document formatting system? I may write one myself, but I'm a bit nervous about it since Lout has an awkwardly wide range of ways of indicating the beginnings and ends of things. For example, a document header for a report might look like: @SysInclude { tbl } @SysInclude { report } @Report @Title { Blah blah } @Author { Alaric Snell-Pym (alaric(a)snell-systems.co.uk) } @Institution { Snell Systems } @InitialLanguage { EnglishUK } @DateLine { June, 2006 } @PageHeaders { Titles } @InitialSpace { tex } @Abstract { In this specification, we describe a blah blah blah. } // ...with the mysterious "//" ending the metadata section. Things like chapters, appendices, sections, subsections, and so on are delimited like so: @Section @Tag { documentcontrol } @Title { Document Control } @Begin ...content... @End @Section While paragraphs don't have an explicit end, they are just separated with "@PP" markers: @PP This is a pargraph of text, blah blah blah @PP This is the next paragraph! Whodathunk? Figures, and many other such block-level objects, have no defined ending: ...text... @Figure @Caption { The prototype } @IncludeGraphic prototype.eps ...text... While bulleted lists have an explicit @EndList marker, but each list item is delimited with curly braces: @BulletList @ListItem { 3x resistor at 4p each } @ListItem { 1x AVR micro-controller at @Sterling""1.92 each } @ListItem { 1x IrDA transceiver module at @Sterling""2.33 each } @ListItem { 1x 3.6v NiMH battery at @Sterling""2.62 each } @ListItem { 2x LED at 25p each } @ListItem { 1x Charging connector at 57p each } @ListItem { 1x socket for AVR micro-controller at 5p each } @ListItem { 1x PCB at 9.75 Euros each, or about @Sterling""6.67 } @EndList It's all rather messy! I suspect I'd be busy for days finding new ways to delimit scopes!

Insert Flash object/embed tags?

by Sean Schertell

Any snippet that can type all that ugly code for me? I tried dragging the .swf into my html like you do with images but that just wrote some *really* ugly code (binary data). Do I actually have to fire up - gag - cough - choke - Dreamweaver to do this? Sean :::: DataFly.Net :::: Complete Web Services http://www.datafly.net

Re: Spinning beach ball for 10-20 seconds on TM focus

by Chris Poirier

Hi Sean, > Thanks Ben -- I think my situation may be different though. My app > isn't writing any logs. > > Any other thoughts? > > Sean I have the problem on my iBook, but not on my Mini. TextMate rescans the entire project directory structure for changes *every* time the window is focussed. To my knowledge, there is currently no way to turn this behaviour off, except to create the project by dragging individual files into the project, instead of whole directories. It's a PITA, but my understanding is that will stop the project reloading on focus. At the very least, trying it that way would help you figure out if this is a new problem or not. Regards, Chris.

Re: [TxMt] Simple bundle question

by Todd Dominey

Ahh...see I *knew* I was missing something obvious. Thanks. It's a little strange though that some HTML bundles (like control- shift-W) work fine in Plain Text mode, but control-shift-L doesn't. That's what was throwing me off. ------------------------------------ Todd Dominey :: Dominey Design http://domineydesign.com/ http://slideshowpro.net/ http://whatdoiknow.org/

Balancing parentheses near strings

by cormullion＠mac.com

I can't figure this out... Here's some text: (this is a parenthesis in quotes "(") If I put the caret before or after the final quotation and choose Select>Enclosing Brackets, TextMate selects the second opening parenthesis and the closing parenthesis. Also, no text is selected with the caret anywhere else. How can I teach TextMate that parentheses between quotation marks shouldn't be considered for a match? I want something like "Ignore parentheses that are in strings" but i can't see how to do that... Thanks -- (<http://newlisper.blogspot.com/>)

Looking for the equivalents to some Emacs commands

by Jonas Steverud

Hello, I am contemplating to buy TextMate, it is by far the most competent and well designed editor I've seen for OS X - and I've been looking for a replacement for Emacs for the last couple of years* - but before really hitting the credit card I would like to find the answer to a few questions that I have not found in the documentation: 1. A very handy feature of Emacs is the just-one-space command; that is, all spaces and tabs around the point is reduced into one space. E.g. (the bar sign is the cursor); "x | x" becomes "x |x". Is there such a command within TextMate? If not, any suggestions for how to create one? I did an experiment, I created a new command and had it running perl with a regexp on the line. The problem is that I want to have it to be run around the current position, not all spaces on the line. Is there a way of sending the current cursor position to the command? I.e. "x x | x" shall become "x x |x", not "x x |x" or something like it. 2. Indent region: Something that I frequently uses is the fill- paragraph and friends of Emacs; TextMate's Reformat (^Q) isn't as advanced and is not language/bundle aware. i was thinking of porting the Lisp code into e.g. perl and create a new command for it, but before I spend any time on it I would like to know if there is something similar already implemented that I've missed? (I usully write HTML, Shell Scripts and Perl in TextMate but will migrate my LaTeX files and other programming languages to TextMate as time passes.) 3. When I write HTML I would like to have e.g. lists looks like this: <ol> <li>AAA Lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum BBB lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum CCC lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum</li> </ol> But, I do not want it to add whitespace before the BBB and CCC, I would like it to wrap lines visually but the file should still look like this: <ol> <li>AAA Lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum BBB lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum CCC lorem ipsum lorem ipsum lorem ipsum</li> </ol> Is this even possible? The visual presentation and the physical file would then differ and I don't think that makes sense for a /text/ editor. (This is not available in Emacs AFAIK but it is something that I miss.) Thank you. /Jonas ----- *) I'm fed up with the lack of proper Unicode support, no native Aqua build that isn't a hack and the reliance on X11 where cut-and-paste between X11 and any other OS X application s*cks. Don't get me wrong, I lived inside Emacs for over ten years, I not only read alt.religion.emacs - I also posted in it! When I say that TextMate is a competent editor, then it is far from an exaggeration. But I don't say that it is *the* editor. Not quite yet. :-)

Auto-sized Output window

by thomas Aylott

the subversion status window is never the right size. It's either too short and causes a scrollbar, or too long and wastes space. I request a way to resize the window with javascript. And a way to make the body background transparent. That way i can set the window size myself or set a default size the height of the window. Transparent would let you click through, obviously. That would allow for all kinds of crazy useful stuff. thomas Aylott—subtleGradient

Fortran and Comments

by Carsten Hoever

Fortran and Comments Hi, while it wasn't a major problem to make some additions to the very rudimentary Fortran bundle (I added some snippets and a compiler command) I am struggling to get the "Continue Line Comment" from the Source Package to behave correctly. While the scope seems to be identified correctly and the "Comment Line" commando behaves as expected, the "Continue Line Comment" doesn't add a proper comment symbol (in this case preferably *), it jumps to the next line but only adds a space instead of *. I have tried to find any differences to other bundles where the commadn works, but I can't find the missing piece. I have already added the line asterisk * to the "Continue Line Comment ". But this didn't help either. Any ideas where I have to look for the missing piece so that I get the proper symbol instead of a space? Thanks, Carsten

Why can't I select the blank line between functions?

by Mark Lacas

Hello, When I drag the mouse to select a function so I can move it, the blank line at the end (between functions) won't select. If I drag further the top line of the next function and the blank line are then highlighted. This is very annoying. Any words of advice? Please don't make me go back to BBEdit. Thanks, ml

Spinning beach ball for 10-20 seconds on TM focus

by Sean Schertell

This just started happening -- I *think* since the latest update (1203) but I'm not 100% sure about that. Almost every time I switch from some other app to TM, the cursor goes beach ball on me for about 10 or 20 seconds before giving TM the focus. It really sucks for web page development since I'm constantly flipping between the browser and TM. One thing that may be a factor is that my site is located on an AFP share on another box on my network as a mounted volume. However, I can edit using skedit with no trouble and no delay. Any ideas?

Problems with RubyMate and running Rails test cases

by Mathias Meyer

Hi! This issue has been bugging for quite some builds now. When using a newer TextMate build, the current 1202 e.g., I can't get the test cases of my Rails project to run from inside TextMate. This is what I get when I try Command-R: ---- snip ---- RubyMate r4532 running Ruby v1.8.4 (/opt/local/bin/ruby) >>> content_controller_test.rb that’s nice this is my important stuff <strong>bad!</strong> I am <at> the exit! NameError: uninitialized constant Test method const_missing in dependencies.rb at line 123 method const_missing in dependencies.rb at line 133 method load_plugin in init.rb at line 1 method load_plugin in initializer.rb at line 348 method silence_warnings in reporting.rb at line 11 method load_plugin in initializer.rb at line 348 method load_plugins in initializer.rb at line 158 method load_plugins in initializer.rb at line 158 method process in initializer.rb at line 102 method run in initializer.rb at line 42 at top level in environment.rb at line 10 at top level in test_helper.rb at line 2 at top level in content_controller_test.rb at line 1 Program exited. ---- snap ---- Obviously it isn't able to load the test classes correctly. My Ruby installation is in /opt/local, installed with DarwinPorts, and all it's libraries are installed there as well. I had a look at the RubyMate code in the bundle, but on first look it doesn't appear to be broken somehow. This stuff worked fine in TextMate build 1112 with RubyMate r3391, though I realized a lot has changed in RubyMate since then ;) Any ideas? Or anyone else having similar issues?

Suggestions from a newbie

by William Uther

Hi, I'm just in the process of switching from BBedit... TextMate is a great combination of Mac UI and Unix power :). There are a few things I've found that could be improved: i) Having all the commands in bundles can make it quite tricky to find things. Not sure how to improve this. I almost want an obvious 'search all commands' command. While browsing the list, I noticed someone else's feature request for a 'what does this key combo do' feature. I'd like to second that. And add a request for an 'open a window with a list of all current key combos' feature. ii) I'm used to having a shell open. As I move around I might want to either open files in TextMate from the shell, or do something in the shell to a file that is open in TextMate. This leads to two strangenesses: - If you use the 'mate' command in the shell to open a file, then the file doesn't get added to the "Open Recent >" menu. I think it should (perhaps as an option to 'mate', or a preference). - If I already have a shell open, I want to drag the document icon in the window title bar to the shell to get the path to the document (as you can in the finder with folders). Now, I can open a new shell with in the same directory, and I could make a command to copy the path to the current file. I'd kinda like the drag-and-drop OUT of textmate option though. (N.B. you can do this with icons in a project. You just can't do it with an individual file's icon.) iii) While looking for a solution to the 'drag out of textmate' problem, I searched the list and found that I could drag out of a project. But I already had the file I wanted to edit open. I didn't have a shell in that dir (so I couldn't 'mate .') and I didn't have a Finder window in that dir any more. I couldn't find a way to 'make a new project with a currently open file'. I'm sure I could make a new command to do this pretty quickly, but it seems like something that should already be there, somewhere. Anyway, thanks for a great product. :) Will :-}

Emacs like "Tab Stop List"

by Carsten Hoever

Hi, at the moment I have to write some code in ancient Fortran77 (don't ask ;-) ). I am nearly going nuts about the fixed column structure a Fortran77 source code has to (at least in my case) obey to: column function 1 comment sign (c,*) 1-5 statement label 6 continuation sign if line wrap in previous line 7-72 actual code The problem is that this fixed source form makes it very hard to work with any special tab stop size, even with "Soft tabs" turned on as I don't need to access any column between 1-5, but instead would like to go from 1 to 6 to 7 (and vice versa!). In emacs I would be able to specifiy a tab stop list, i.e. a list with the actual columns a tab should bring me to, e.g.: 6, 7, 11, 15, 19... Is there any way to simulate something in Textmate? I am tired of adding and deleting spaces manually in order to obey to that structure. I apologize if this has already been discussed, a search in the WiKi and the archives didn't bring up anything. Bye, Carsten BTW: Congrats for the award Allan, TextMate really deserved it!

Simple bundle help

by Adam van den Hoven

Hey guys, I just started working with TM and its great. Given time, its going to make my work much faster. In my company we've created a large number of custom JSP taglibs. I would like to be able to add those taglibs to the HTML bundle (or more accurately create a new bundle from the HTML bundle for this). I was trying to get my head around the language definitions and I got hopelessly lost. Is there a tutorial somewhere that I can use to figure out how to do this? Thanks Adam

A slightly different TextMate story...

by Jonas M Luster

In the midst of all the "this is why I don't switch", and "I switched and love it" stories, I thought - as a brief interruption of the real work on this list - I'd share my 5 lines. I am registered user #81. I bought TextMate literally six hours after BBEdit, and haven't unpacked BB since. In fact, if you take a look at the Codingmonkeys website, you'll find my name there, as well, mentioned in one or two places. Nonetheless, it's TextMate I stuck with. Since that day I purchased it, I know what I did with it - - wrote close to 120,000 lines of code (wc -l over my local repository) - taught myself two new programming languages - wrote two books - a PhD thesis - edited another book - and co-wrote an article for a Sociological magazine based on the PhD thesis that got me a rather prestigious award. - wrote close to 5,000 weblog and wiki pages and entries - wrote all my email - wrangled a 41,000 line dataset for the thesis using Ruby and a specialized bundle - coded Flexbar (an addon for World of Warcraft, just about THE addon) - and proposed marriage (don't ask) there you have it. Not sure many Mac editors can claim they've been used that versatilely.

Use of Subversion requires a file to be open.

by Romulo Velasquez

When I open an existing project the directory structure appears in the drawer while the currently selected file contents appears within the window (which is blank when you first open an existing project). If I have the root project folder selected (text window still blank) I am unable to get the status of the subversioned folder ('svn status'). In order for me to get the status of the project I must open at least one file and then select the root project folder again and then I can get the status. This is true for other subversion commands as well (you need at least one file open in order to perform subversion commands on your project). Is this behaviour intentional? I feel like subversion commands should work independent of whether files are open or not .. it should work on the files/folders in the project drawer only. Rom

Things that keep me from switching to TextMate

by haller＠ableton.com

TextMate is one of the best editors I have used on the Mac, and things like its macros, snippets, and tab triggers almost make me switch right away. Especially column-based typing is awesome. However, there are a couple of limitations that are important enough for me to keep me from switching. In rough order of importance: - Function parser is line-based The functions popup or the symbol browser (Command-Shift-T) work line-based, i.e. they don't recognize functions such as void foo( int param1, int param2) { } We have a coding style that requires this layout for most functions, so the function popup/symbol browser is next to useless for us. I understand that this is because the regular expression based function parser can only work line by line, but still this is one of the most severe limitations for me. - Loses insertion point when document is changed by another app If another application changes a document that is currently open in TextMate, TextMate notices this when you bring it to the front, and reloads the changed document. This is good; however, it loses track of where you were editing, and scrolls all the way to the top, setting the insertion point to the beginning of the text. I suppose this is intentional, because an existing selection may no longer be at the right place after the other application inserted or deleted text before the selection; however, in the majority of cases it makes more sense to me to keep the current selection and scroll position, even if it may be slightly off. For example, when I use TextMate for coding but Xcode for debugging, I often fix minor typos in the Xcode editor while debugging, and it is very annoying to have to go back to where you were editing in TextMate after that. - Find has no "whole words only" option I must be missing something here. This seems like such as basic feature of any serious text editor. - Option-RightArrow stops too often When stepping word by word through a sequence such as "abc / def", Option-RightArrow stops after 'abc' (which is fine), and then it stops *before* 'def', which is not; it should directly jump to after 'def'. In other words, it should jump from one end of a word to the end of the next word, skipping all non-words. Xcode and CodeWarrior do this right (in my opinion); in BBEdit it's even worse than in TM though. - Bundle commands should be available without an open window Some bundle commands are already available now when no window is open (e.g. "Relaunch TextMate"), but they don't do anything when chosen. For some commands this would be very useful though (e.g. Xcode/Run, or most Help commands). - Undo is per-character Typing sequences should be consolidated into a single undo step. Doesn't anybody use undo for typing? This is basically unusable in TextMate. - Shift Left/Right should extend the selection to whole lines I often put the insertion point somewhere in the middle of the first line of a paragraph, hit Shift-DownArrow until I'm in the middle of the last line of the paragraph, and then choose Shift Right; this will insert a tab in the middle of the first line, which makes absolutely no sense to me. Same for "Source/Comment Line". I think these commands should first extend the selection to the beginning of the first and end of the last selected line; I can't think of a single situation where you wouldn't want this. BBEdit gets this right. - Remap keys for Shift Left/Right If there's a multi-line selection, I'd like Tab and Shift-Tab to be bound to Shift Right/Shift-Left. I see no reason why I should have to hold down Option too. - Control-RightArrow should jump by CamelCaps sub-words Right now, Ctrl-Left/Right jump to the beginning/end of the line; there's already Command-Left/Right for that, so I think Ctrl-Left/Right would be free to jump over the sub-words of a CamelCapsVariableName. See Xcode. - Show key binding for a particular key With all those bundles and scope-based bindings, it can be very difficult to figure out what command a particular key is currently bound to in the current context. There's the Bundles/TextMate/Show Keyboard Shortcuts command, but it generates a huge list that you have to wade through. It would be very useful to have a function that lets you type a key and displays what it is bound to. -- Stefan Haller Ableton http://www.ableton.com/

Using TextMate bundles in Intype

by Martin Cohen

Hi everybody, I'm working on Microsoft Windows clone of TextMate: Intype. Intype is compatible with some types of bundle items, such as grammars. I wonder, if licensing of these bundle items permit to use them in Intype. I just can't find license for them. :( Regards, Martin

Global Theming, Custom Outputs?

by thomas Aylott

Howdy. Just came across http://macromates.com/wiki/Suggestions/ StylingHTMLOutput This is a great step in the right direction in making all this random stuff more a part of the app. Maybe we should implement this as a custom output option. So that you could have both HTML Output Window BASIC and HTML Output Window THEMED (or whatever). That way you get that whole header and footer and theme switcher and whatever for free. Custom Nibs? We could implement it as a custom nib instead of having to rely on doing all this junk in HTML and javascript. If we're going to do that, we could start making our own custom nib outputs. An HTML preview output for with some mini-browser functionality could easily replace the Live Preview window. A commit window-esque output could be used for a bunch of stuff. Hmm, maybe that's a bad idea. thomas Aylott—subtleGradient

Subversion bundle - "Show all modifications" not working for me

by Cameron Booth

Hi everybody, Hope this hasn't been answered anywhere else, but I couldn't find it. I just updated my Textmate to a newer version, and now I don't see the "Show all modifications" link on the Subversion menu (the one that pops up when I hit Control-Shift-A). I have: ..... Diff with Revision --- Resolve conflicts with FileMerge Resolved --- Help ..... I don't see Show all modifications in there at all. Any suggestions? I really liked that functionality.

Un-smart typing of '

by cormullion＠mac.com

Another question I can't solve on my own. When I type ' - a single quote - I don't want to see a closing one inserted automatically (this is Lisp, after all). The newLISP language bundle has this: smartTypingPairs = ( ( '(', ')' ), ( '[', ']' ), ( '{', '}' ), ( '"', '"' ), ); so obviously it's some sort of default behaviour. Can I switch it off in this bundle yet leave it available in others? thanks -- (<http://newlisper.blogspot.com/>)

Save Dialogue: File Extension Highlighted

by Takaaki Kato

Hi, When I try saving a file, the save dialogue appears, whose name field is, let's say, "untitled.html". In this case, all the letters including html are highlighted. It'd be useful if only "untitled" is highlighted so that, when user starts to type in file name, the extension is untouched. In this way, users can save a few letters of typing (e.g., html, js, sql, rb, m). I understand, in some cases, extensions can be different than by default (e.g., both html and htm are okay for HTML documents). But, personally, in most cases, I'm OK with default extensions. Does anybody have any thoughts on this? Takaaki -- Takaaki Kato

Formatting of LaTeX footnotes

by Matthias Damm

Hello, another question regarding the LaTeX bundle: There have been requests for making footnotes collapsable in the past. I still find this highly desirable, but there does not seem to be an easy solution for this at the moment. (Background: I work with a document with a lot of footnotes, many of them being rather long. It would be much easier to read and edit the main text if the footnotes could be collapsed.) I'd like to ask if another thing could be implemented more easily: It would already help a lot if the footnotes would appear in another color (or with another background color), so that it would be possible to see where a footnote starts and ends immediately. Is this possible? Thanks in advance, best regards Matthias -- Matthias Damm mad(a)macpla.net PGP key: http://macpla.net/MatthiasDamm.asc PGP fingerprint: CED3 6074 7F7D 3148 C6F3 DFF2 05FF 3A0B 0D12 4D41

recent GTDAlt problem

Sometime in the last few days I've had a problem using GTDAlt's broke for me, when I use '#' to bring up the due date dialog and hit return to accept 'today', instead of inserting the date it displays this: /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/ Support/bin/GTDUtils.rb:27:in /bin/bash: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `'' /bin/bash: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of filedowncase' for ["today"]:Array (NoMethodError) from /tmp/temp_textmate.kKMNI2:10 Is anyone else seeing this?

Defining functions in bundle

by cormullion＠mac.com

I'd like my functions to appear in the popup menu. My function definitions look like this: (define (func-name arg1 arg2) (print "the arguments were " arg1 " and " arg2)) and the bundle I've been given has this: { name = 'declaration.function.lisp'; match = '(\b(?i:(def\-new|define(-macro)?))\b)(\s+)((\w|\-|\!|\?)*)'; captures = { 2 = { name = 'keyword.control.function-type.lisp'; }; 4 = { name = 'entity.name.function.lisp'; }; }; }, I can understand why it also covers other types of definition ( eg (def-new and (define-macro ) although I rarely use these, and it sort of looks Ok at first glance (I don't know whether some of those parentheses should be escaped...). Nothing appears in the function pop-up menu, though. Should I expect this to work as like this or has something else gone wrong, or does it rely on other things being set as well? -- (<http://newlisper.blogspot.com/>)

Bug: Characters deleted following '$' when command inserts as snippet

by Andy Kish

System is OS X 10.4.7. TM version 1.5.3 (1200). Same error occurs on another system with unknown information (we corresponded over email...). To reproduce: 1. Create a new command. Enter a short, non-shell script printing out '$' at some point. Ex: #!/usr/bin/env python print "test: $SIG{}" 2. Make sure the output mode is set to "Insert as Snippet". 3. Run command in a document. Expected result: Document shows the result of the program. e.g. "test: $SIG{}" Actual result: Document shows result with characters removed following and including '$'. e.g. "test: {}" Note that the removal stopped at what is generally a "special" character. Comments: The expected result occurs when the output method is changed to "Insert as Text" or "Replace selected Text" (i.e. when the text in not further manipulated in any way, for indentation and the like). Similarly, the expected result occurs when '$' is escaped. Entering the line 'echo "test: $SIG{}"' at the command prompt returns "test: {}" which seems to indicate that the text mangling is resulting from being passed through the shell. Andy Kish

Weirdest bug ever.

by Steve Lianoglou

I actually don't believe this happened ... but really ... it just did. I've been working on a project of mine. It was opened via: File > Open Recent > ProjectFolderName So some background. There is no .proj file or whatever it is .. it's not a "TextMate Project" .. I just drag my project folder onto TextMate. It's been open for a while, and has many folders/files inside it ... it's a mixed Java/Python project and I was shuffling some folders around via the Eclipse Navigator pane (I switch between TextMate and Eclipse, depending on wether I'm in Python or Java mode). While I was in Eclipse, I moved my python source folder to a different directory .. did some more coding for a while and came back to TextMate. Everything's kosher. The folders updated correctly in the TextMate's project drawer. I opened some python files .. doing some housekeeping and I decided that I'd like to add a new python file. So I [Right Click > New File ...] on my python folder in the project drawer and enter the name for the file "utils.py" and hit Create. The file opens up and *bang* there's a mess load of code in it. In fact, it was code from another utils.py file that is somewhere (very far away) on my HD. Weird ... now there are two utils.py files in my project drawer. Though clicking on either one brings up the same file. So I right-click > remove it .. quit and restart textmate and everything's ok. No utils.py file anymore, so I right-click > create it and now it's blank. Everything's seemingly normal at the moment ... I'm not even sure I can repeat that, just wanted to send it out there. -steve

Escape character entities to numerical references?

by Neil Lee

Hi all - I did a search through the archives but I didn't find an answer on how to accomplish what I'm looking for. The current method that TextMate uses to escape entities is by using the short name ('), which unfortunately doesn't work with Windows IE. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to convert these instead to the numeric version (e.g. ’). Is there any way to do this? Or a bundle that I can install that will do this?

File Tab "~" : Bug? Feature?

by Steven Loe

Today while using TextMate 1.5.2 to edit a .as file in my project, I noticed that the the file name in the file tab ended with a tilde (~). I also noticed that the edits that I was making to my text file were no longer "taking". That is, I could edit text, save the file, but the edits would have no effect... as if they had never been made. Frustrating. I closed the file, re-opened and now TextMate (and my edits) are back to normal. The edits I had made to the file were gone, but I was able to get back to work and re-enter my edits. What is the significance does the tilde at the end of the filname in the file tab have? Is this a feature? or a bug? thanks very much, Steven osx 10.4.7 Power PC __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

GTDAlt and file metadata

by ryan king

I just started using GTDAlt and am really enjoying it. I have one bit of feedback, though. Whenever I execute a command, the entire file gets overwritten, including all the data in the resource fork. This means when I hit the command to "Clean current file", suddenly all of my folded project blocks get unfolded. I've tried to figure out a way to do this more elegantly, but I honestly don't have any suggestions, hence the reason I'm bringing it up here. Do any other bundles deal with this gracefully? thanks, ryan

Customising bundles

by Andreas Wahlin

I don't know if this exact thing has been up, sorry if it has. But I thought perhaps one could have sort of a local svn of the bundles, with only one "level" of fallback (sorry, I don't speak technical svn). So that when you customise an item in a bundle, it will make a copy of that specific entry, and place it first (or last) of all the items (snippets, languages, commands etc), with a big delimiter between "your" stuff and the bundle default stuff. This could upen up for revert commands, and perhaps even diff commands. Also, if you delete something from the original, it can show up among your things with a big linethrough. Perhaps one should also be able to see what sort of "own" things has been forked off original things, so you can compare with the original. Also, you can add your entirely new items into a logical bundle, and you will see that it is yours entirely and not built off an original. I hope I've made myself clear on the whole idea, and I hope it's not something that's already come up :) Andreas
