General Comments/Questions ======================= 1. Textmate's web preview integration with Markdown is awesome. This feature has drawn me into textmate. 2. I am so tired of bloated Microsoft Word files. Other than the files that people send you, has anyone adopted Textmate as their primary text editor? It seems like a fantastic editor for code, but how is it for someone in education? Writing a Markdown document in Textmate ================================= I understand the basic principals of markdown, but typing the code (albeit, simple) seems burdensome. Is it possible to: * highlight selected items and add a "*" (bullet) at the beginning of the list? * create triggers for the various markdown codes? Markdown Conversion ================= I have had great success in putting markdown document on the web. What are recommendations for converting a markdown document into a text file? Thanks, Stephen

Questions from a BBEdit user considering switching

by Brian Tully

I just discovered TextMate last week and based on user reviews I decided it was worth a look-see. I have been using the demo exclusively for the past week in an attempt to wean off of BBEdit. However I've noticed a couple of showstoppers for me and I'm hoping I either haven't discovered that they can be done in TextMate or that someone clever has figured out acceptable workarounds. First up, BBEdit has a function under the Search menu "Compare Two Front Documents" which recognizes which windows are open in BBEdit and performs a diff between them. I use this all the time, and usually one of the documents is a remote document being edited via FTP through YummyFTP and TextMate. The only comparable function I found in TextMate is within the Diff bundle, however it specfically requires that both files be in the same project (i.e., local) and that they be selected in the Project drawer. Since I need to compare files remotely to files locally this does not do the trick. I tried reading up on TextMate's dynamic variables, but didn't see anything resembling "TM_OPEN_FILES". Can TextMate accommodate BBEdit's "compare two front documents" function, either through some built-in function I don't know about or through some external bundle/workaround? If not, is this planned in a future release? Next showstopper for me is the inability for TextMate to find/replace recursively through a directory. BBEdit allows me to select the directory of my choice, whereas TextMate seems to require that I define a Project and that only the Project files can be searched. Is there any way to override that? Any plans of expanding this in a future release? Like I said earlier, I'm very tempted to switch from BBEdit to TextMate, so if either/both of the above "showstoppers" could be addressed/accommodated it would be a no brainer. Thanks a bunch. brian

Tablature bundle

by Michael Daines

Hello, I've been working a little bit on a bundle for writing guitar (and other) tablature. There's syntax highlighting, there's a "blank staff" snippet-like command which will respond to a tuning you set for the whole document, and there are keybindings to insert and delete blank spaces and bar lines for a whole column, and to fill in blank space. Here's a movie: http://www.mdaines.com/system/tablature.mov It goes a little slow since I'm still experimenting with the key bindings. Your input is welcome re: that and anything else! There's a zip archive of the bundle here: http://www.mdaines.com/ system/tablature.zip Presumably it'll go into a source repository or something soon. -- Michael Daines http://www.mdaines.com

Re: Disable Re-indent Paste per bundle

by Oliver Taylor

In "Re: Disable Re-indent Paste per bundle" Allan Wrote: > You should know that you can use ctrl-cmd V to paste without > re-indenting. Yes, I do know about this. > But I think it should be easy to add a preference to disable > it per scope. That would be fantastic. Sure, *I* know about ctrl-cmd V, but people who've never used TextMate are unlikely to know what's going on. Perhaps I'm deluding myself into thinking that there are people out there who will adopt this bundle without learning all that TextMate has to offer, but I'm thinking ahead. My particular case--the screenwriting bundle--has absolutely no use for this feature, in fact, it gets pretty hairy when pasting large chunks of text around, especially since the language depends, not on markup for it's scope definitions, but indentation.

Disable Re-indent Paste per bundle

by Oliver Taylor

I know you can disable the re-indenting of text for textmate as a whole, but how is this done on a per-bundle basis? I remember Allan mentioning something about a "commands.plist" file, but I can't find a reference for exactly what that is. Thanks in advance.

Latex and TM_LATEX_MASTER

by Jeroen van der Ham

Hi, I'm currently working on an article, together with some other authors, so we thought it wise to split it up into separate files, and then one main file, where all the others are \input-ed. Works great, and the TM_LATEX_MASTER variable makes life a little bit easier. However, it turns out that support for this variable is a bit sketchy: - Using a full path in that variable breaks everything. Escaping a full path in quotes breaks it even more. The "Typeset and View" command normally constructs the filename and path itself, and assumes a clean input, but this breaks when the value of TM_LATEX_MASTER is used directly. - If you just give a filename (and the file is in the project root), then "Typeset and View" can at least build the file. Viewing it breaks, because file://localhost/${TM_LATEX_MASTER%.tex}.pdf can not be found. (the variable is properly expanded in the URL, the file just can't be found) I tried to look into it, but I couldn't really figure out how to get it to work properly. I hope someone else here has some time and is willing to look at it. Regards, Jeroen.

keeping "unofficial" bundles up-to-date with Subversion

by Eric Peden

Those of who you fear the SVN instructions for getting bundles, run away now. There are several nifty bundles out there that for one reason or another aren't in the official subversion repository. To update them, you have to remember to do an 'svn update' for each one. Isn't there an easier way? Yes. Yes there is: svn:externals[1] cd "/Library/Application Support/TextMate" svn propedit svn:externals Bundles This will popup your chosen editor. Now simply enter the name of the bundles you want updated followed by a space and then the path to their subversion repo. For example, here's my (short) list: tAylott_subtleGradient.tmbundle http://textmate.svn.subtlegradient.com/Bundles/tAylott_subtleGradient.tmbun… RubyAndRails-Experimental.tmbundle http://www.eyematz.com/svn/public/TextMate/RubyAndRails-Experimental/RubyAn… Note that those are only two very long lines. Save your changes and leave your editor. Now when you do an 'svn update', it'll automatically fetch changes for the other bundles as well. Caveat emptor for those of you with commit access: make sure you don't accidentally check in the property changes. We mere mortals don't have to worry about this. ;) [1]: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/ch07s03.html -- eric These Apples are delicious

[ANN] assignment block tidier script

by Chris Poirier

Hi all, I've written a ruby script that will tidy-up a series of assignment statements by lining up the equals signs. Installed as a command in TextMate, it can reformat all assignment statements in the current selection, or all assignment statements conitiguous to the current line. Note that the script assumes you uses spaces, not tabs; and I wrote it last night, so there may still be bugs. :-) Anyway, if you are interested, you can find more details and the script itself at: http://random-dreams.org/2006/05/fun-with-textmate-align-equals-in.html Regards, Chris Poirier.

ASP Bundle?

by Bryan Hughes

I had to do a little work with ASP (not ASP.net) today and I was surprised to see that Textmate did not come with an ASP bundle. So far, my Google searches havn't found any ASP bundles, so I was hopeful that the Textmate community could help me. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

Using FileMerge with Subversion

by Trevor Harmon

There's a pending patch [1] that gives TextMate's Subversion bundle automatic support for graphical diff utilities like BBDiff. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten this patch to work with FileMerge because FileMerge and its command-line launcher, opendiff, take non- standard arguments and thus aren't compatible with Subversion. Although wrapper scripts are available, the best one I've used so far [2] has been rather flaky: sometimes it simply fails to launch FileMerge. Today, however, I discovered a new FileMerge wrapper script [3] that seems totally reliable and works quite nicely with the patch. So, to use FileMerge with Subversion, here's what you do: * Install the patch * Put the script somewhere (chmodding it to executable) * Add this to ~/.subversion/config: diff-cmd = <path to script> After that, any Subversion diffs you do will be handled by FileMerge. Trevor [1] http://macromates.com/ticket/show?ticket_id=48F737BE [2] http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/svn- viewdiff [3] http://ssel.vub.ac.be/ssel/internal:fmdiff

[ANN] Code Styler/Theme Chooser/Sweet PasteBin

by Soryu

Hey Mates, I made a [Proof of Concept][1] interface of a theme chooser and coder styler for TextMate. Using the fantastic commands from [Brad Choate] [2] to generate `CSS` from TextMate theme and convert documents to `HTML` files, this nifty little thing let's you view code how it would look in TextMate. You can choose a small number of Code snippets and Themes right now and just play with it a little. Feedback welcome. The idea is to use this on your site for pasting code or as a general PasteBin for the `IRC` channel. It's a little `PHP` thingy and some `AJAX` to load the source and I will make it available under `BSD` licence shortly. Again, your Feedback appreciated. There are some items on the TODO list and some incompatibilities and/or browser flaws to master. Just don't nag me too much why your theme is not included in the list right now ;) Also the professional themers out there (namely Thomas Aylott and Infiniknight) are welcome to send me some of their sample code fpr theme designing if they are willing to share it :). Thanks to Jacob Rus for his ideas and Brad Choate for the nice commands. So long (and thanks for all the fish), *Soryu*.

Smart typing question

by John Tsombakos

Hi, I have what may be a simple question about Smart typing. How do you all "finish" typing something that has smart typing characters? Here's a simple example: Typing in some HTML, an input tag.. type <input type=" and TextMate helpfully enters the second " character. Thank you TM. Now I enter the type: text Now my cursor is still within the quotes. By habit, I type the closing quote, but now I'm just defeating the purpose of smart typing. My option, as I see, is to read and hit the right-arrow key. A slightly more complicated example - in PHP: array["something"] As soon as I type [" it looks like: array["|"] (where "|" is my cursor. Again, thanks TM. But now, after typing 'something', I have to move past the " and ]. Am I missing some simple navigation? It's a simple thing that's making my want to turn off Smart typing. Thanks!

Groups & folders

by Timothy Reaves

I'm using groups so that I can hove more that on project folder per TextMate instance. TextMate seems unable to deal with this. Many commands that use the project directory environment variable - such as Subversion - fail. And sometimes the value is set to '/' and other times it is set to an actual folder in the group. Is this a known defect? Is there a workaround? Thanks.

[ANN] RubyAndRails-Experimental bundle a.k.a Ruby & Rails syntax improved

by Mats Persson

OK, everyone seems to be adding some new functionality to TM these days, so I thought it was about time for me to get on that bandwagon again after a long time away ;-) So here is the RubyAndRails-Experimental bundle which will do the following: 1. Syntax Highlight all known Ruby & Rails methods Especially for those that like me waste large amounts of time looking for 'spelling' bugs, where I/we have spelled a method wrongly. In other words: typing "validate_confrimation_of" will NOT highlight since it’s spellt wrongly, while "validates_confirmation_of" will highlight correctly. Just make sure you have highlighting on for the 'support.function' scope. 2. CodeCompletion Pressing ESC after typing a few characters will now give you a complete listing of all known Ruby, Rails or Ruby & Rails methods that begins with those characters. Built in support for three separate scopes if you so wish. (Requires some editing of scopes in the Bundle window) Nope, does NOT yet support code base scanning for your own defined methods. :( Please feel free to improve upon this! ;-) 3. Ruby 'ri' Documentation Support View ri's informational output based upon the currently selected word OR the current word your cursor is within. Requires that you have the ri documentation installed, or it will give you a information text telling you that. Great !! So where do I get hold of it ?? If you have SVN installed just copy and run either of these commands: svn checkout http://www.eyematz.com/svn/public/TextMate/RubyAndRails- Experimental/RubyAndRails-Experimental.tmbundle RubyAndRails- Experimental.tmbundle svn export http://www.eyematz.com/svn/public/TextMate/RubyAndRails- Experimental/RubyAndRails-Experimental.tmbundle RubyAndRails- Experimental.tmbundle or else download it from here: [ http://www.imediatec.co.uk/tm/ bundles/RubyAndRails-Experimental.tmbundle.v1.zip ] and then double-click the bundle to install it. Enjoy ! And if somethings not working OK, please let me know, preferably with a diff patch ;-) Kind regards, Mats ---- "TextMate, coding with an incredible sense of joy and ease" - www.macromates.com - "RubyOnRails development done the Mac way" - locomotive.raaum.org -

Language grammar regexp inconsistency or blunder on my part?

by Michael Daines

Hello, I've been fooling around a little with trying to create a language grammar for guitar tablature, and I ran into a problem with matching something like this: E 0-------|--------|--------| B --0-----|0-------|--------| G ----0---|--0-----|0-------| D ------0-|----0---|--0-----| A --------|------0-|----0---| E --------|--------|------0-| I should probably know my TERMINOLOGY better in order to do this, but I'm calling this thing a "block" for now. Every document will have 1 or more of these. I attempted to write a rule that would match one these things: { name = 'block.tablature'; match = '([A-G].+\n){6}'; } This doesn't seem to match a section like this, but if I use the find command with that regexp, the "block" is found and selected. What am I missing? -- Michael

[ANN] CSS Preview command

by Brad Choate

A couple of days ago I checked in a new CSS bundle command for doing a preview. You can find this in the macromates.com subversion repository: http://anon:anon@macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/ CSS.tmbundle/Commands/Preview.plist The goal was to generate a preview HTML page from the CSS rules declared. It's not perfect, but it's a first stab at it. I've seen similar functionality in TopStyle (for Windows) and a single-item preview in CSSEdit (for Mac). The command is bound to Ctrl+Option+Cmd +P. Note that since it is scoped to source.css, hitting this key within an HTML document with the caret inside a CSS block will also invoke the CSS Preview. If this happens, it will submit the contents of the CSS block as the input to the command (using the new 'Scope' input option). The command also works on a selection; so if you have a few CSS rules you want to preview, you can select them first. Feedback as always is appreciated-- there are still some rough edges (ie, how to handle absolute-positioned rules or floats), but it's pretty useful to me already. -Brad

Restriction / "enter" folds

by Tom Locke

Hi I know Textmate has folding, but does it have a feature that old- school folding editors called "enter fold" i.e. the ability to hide everything *but* the contents of the fold. Folding mode in emacs has this - I think the emacs term is "restricting" the buffer. I live by this feature - with the right keyboard shortcuts you can fly around the file without ever scrolling. If textmate has this, I'm probably going to switch, if not, is there much chance of it making it into 2.0? Tom.

Subversion commit, keyboard only

by Trevor Harmon

There was some talk not too long ago about keyboard-only commits in the Subversion bundle [1]. Chris Thomas said he would set up the Enter key (not to be confused with the Return key) to act as the commit button. However, this only works if you have an Apple keyboard. Some of us (hint, hint) use non-Apple keyboards, and even the ones that are designed for the Mac (they have a little Apple icon on the command keys, for instance) may not have an Enter key [2]. Is there anything that can be done to accommodate us?

After using the 'Xcode/Import Frontmost Project' command, for commands in the newly imported project TM_PROJECT_DIRECTORY is set to '/'. I think that is an unfortunate choice. If for whatever reason it can not be set to the 'real' project directory, I think it should either not be defined at all or empty. Gerd

Linefeeds in commands & snippets

Is there a way to prevent that? Thanks. Mike

Problem with code folding in BibTeX mode

by Matthias Damm

Hi, I recently opened some BibTeX documents in TM (which I normally don't do since I use BibDesk) and recognized the following problem: TM tries to fold the BibTeX code, but the end of the BibTeX entries are not reocgnized correctly. My entries look like this: @book{ros:02, Address = {London}, Author = {Corey Ross}, Title = {The East German Dictatorship. Problems and Perspectives in the Interpretation of the GDR}, Year = {2002}} So, the fields are pretty-formatted by BibDesk, they are preceeded by a tab. This causes TM not to recognize the end of the entry. If the entry looks like this: @book{ros:02, Address = {London}, Author = {Corey Ross}, Title = {The East German Dictatorship. Problems and Perspectives in the Interpretation of the GDR}, Year = {2002}} or like this: @book{ros:02, Address = {London}, Author = {Corey Ross}, Title = {The East German Dictatorship. Problems and Perspectives in the Interpretation of the GDR}, Year = {2002} } everything works fine. Is it possible to change the code folding to work with the first version? I suppose many BibTeX users on the Mac will have this problem, since probably almost all of them work with BibDesk ...

I have read and seen the "edit in TextMate" functionality, but would rather than having a hack use the Services menu for this. I have also read that this was a functionality before that was removed. Is it possible to add that back in easily? Those who don't want to have this Services menuitem can then use e.g. Service Scrubber (http:// www.petermaurer.de/nasi.php?section=servicescrubber) to remove it. Or am I missing something here? -e -- egil helland / it consultant (mcse, web technology) web: ikon.as / egil.net mob: +47-91315555

Lookup documentation command in LaTeX

by Daniel Käsmayr

A quick addition to the LaTeX Bundle -- there was some mention of "texdoc" on the TeX on OSX-Mailing list: Command: "Lookup documentation of current word/package" Shell script: texdoc $TM_CURRENT_WORD (no input, no output) Scope: variable.parameter.name.package with an addition to the language definition: (although I don't know if the scope names are valid TextMate-speak) { name = 'meta.label.package.latex'; begin = '(\\(?:usepackage)\{)'; end = '(\})'; patterns = ( { name = 'variable.parameter.name.package'; match = '[a-zA-Z,:0-9]+'; } ); }, This command will then open the corresponding help file for a selected package. greets, Dan

Help with simple command

by Oliver Taylor

I don't speak any scripting language so I was hoping you all could help me out with two simple commands. 1. Take the current line number, divide my 38 and display the result as a tooltip that reads: Aprox. Page-Count for Current Line: XX 2. Take the total number of lines in the document, divide my 38 and display the result as a tooltip that reads: Aprox. Page-Count for Document: XX Thanks in advance! —oliver

Greasemonkey Bundle

by Adam Vandenberg

I put together a simple bundle for editing Greasemonkey scripts: http://adamv.com/dev/textmate/greasemonkey The page documents the new scopes and snippets. Not a lot to it, but editing a Greasemonkey script is mostly just editing Javascript. I can put it in the repository if anyone else wants to hack on it. -Adam V. http://adamv.com

[ANN] Theme to CSS stylesheet, document to HTML/CSS commands

by Brad Choate

Have you ever wanted to publish your source code with your syntax highlighting intact? That is, formatted the way that TextMate sees it? Well, thanks to a recent update to TextMate[1], it's now possible. I've created two commands that are in the TextMate subversion repository[2] that are in the Experimental bundle: Create HTML from Document / Selection: This command will take your entire document and create a new one that is an HTML file which recreates the view of your document as TextMate renders it. It also preserves the colors that you're using as your current TextMate theme, since it generates the CSS from your theme file. If you have a selection, this command will only output a '<pre>' block for that section (instead of generating a full HTML document plus stylesheet). Create CSS from Theme: This command creates a new CSS document that is based on your current theme. So, what is this good for? Well, if you want to publish snippets of code, nicely highlighted, but don't want to create images. Besides, textual examples are better than images since they're searchable. So, you could create the CSS rules based on your theme, then add it to your existing site's stylesheet. Then, you can invoke the "Create HTML..." command to create the HTML. Why did I do this? There are many syntax highlighting solutions out there (indeed, TM itself has a few commands that do this kind of thing, but they don't reliably reproduce the document the way TM sees it). But this one leverages the document parsing TM does-- and therefore, it works with any language definition that is in your TextMate bundle set. It also doesn't require any additional software to be installed. Please report any errors you find to me. And thanks again to Allan for adding support necessary to do this. Brad Choate http://bradchoate.com/ [1] - Release 948's "One can now access the document as parsed by TextMate." new feature. So these commands require that release or later.

RE: [TxMt] Anyone interested in... Revised Widget

Error importing XCode project

by Joshua Lock

Hi folks, I've just recently bought TextMate and was hoping to use it to work on Adium[1]. I launched TextMate, created a blank document and tried to use the gear menu to "Import Project ...", TextMate flashed a tooltip and then I got an error dialog because the application xcode_to_tmproj quit unexpectedly. I also tried the same project from the "Import Frontmost Project" command. Same crash... I've also tried this with a coupla other projects and had the same results. Weirdest thing is I'm sure this worked a coupla weeks ago as I tried the functionality before I registered... Anyone have any ideas?

Tab Triggered stuff With a Selection!?

by thomas Aylott

Selecting text from the right to the left, stopping the selection before the tab trigger does in fact allow for tab triggered snippets with a selection. tab_trigger<Selection_end>SELECTED_TEXT<Selection_start> There are a couple of bad things about this. There is no way to know how your selection was made, since you can't see the caret when you have a selection. That, and the TM_SELECTED_TEXT variable isn't available. Making the TM_SELECTED_TEXT variable work shouldn't be too difficult (I would imagine). But making the caret visible with a selection would really be weird. I'd still like it, but i may be the only one. thomas Aylott—subtleGradient—oblivious(a)subtleGradient.com

Folding Python

Changing Theme Based on Bundle?

by nightdots

Is there a way to automatically have TextMate change to a specified theme based on the bundle that is selected? An example is, when I select to make a Screenwriting bundle file, I'd like it to automatically change to my screenwriting default theme instead of whatever is currently there. I've been extremely frustrated trying to figure this out. Thanks in advance!

CommitWindow.app

by Eric Coleman

I have a SVN project with a few externals. Every time I go to commit, it automatically includes these external folders in the window and marks them with and X. What happens, is that if im not actually commiting inside one of the external directories, the commit fails. What I want to do, is that if there is an "X" item, I want it deselected by default. If you need a screen shot to understand what I'm talking about, I can give it up. If someone could either fix it or toss the code my way so I can mess with it, it would be greatly appreciated.

using one encoding per project

by Max Lein

I typically use TextMate for two different things: administrating/ updating websites and LaTeX. For Websites I use UTF8, but for LaTeX I have to use Latin1 (since this is what my co-workers use). However, when I load the website project, every time a file is saved, Latin1 is used instead of UTF8. Is there a way to make that encoding stick, preferably on a per-file basis (at least on a per-project basis)? I suspect that this should be very easy to implement (via metadata) … Or is there another way to make TextMate respect my choice of encoding? Thanks a lot. Max

Mercurial bundle

YAML Folding Markers

by Paul Mucur

I'm observing some strange behaviour with the YAML folding markers: the folding stop marker does not appear when there is some whitespace on the closing line this despite of the regex matching \s*. It works fine if the line is completely empty, however. I also thought it helpful to add [^#] after the initial ^ in the folding start marker regexp so that comments containing words followed by colons do not appear as folding markers (as with the default database.yml that Rails 1.1.2 generates). foldingStartMarker = '^[^#]\s*.*:(\s*\[?| &.+)?$'; -- Paul

Changing Open File Name is Not Reflected in TextMate

by Paul Mucur

If one opens a file in TextMate and then renames that file in the Finder, TextMate does not pick up the change and saving the opened file will result in the file being saved with its original name. I only mention this as I am user coming from BBEdit and am used to it picking up file name changes upon activating the editor window. I'm not sure which is the best approach but I like the idea of files not being dependent on their name; the ability to re-open a file despite its name having been changed is a great thing so perhaps this should apply to when a file is currently opened? Thanks in advance, -- Paul

Command-/ (Comments) not working

by Oscar Bonilla

I often hear in this list how Command-/ comments/uncomments the selection with the appropriate commenting characters, however, anytime I use it it _always_ uses C-style comments (/*...*/). I have an up to date /Library/Application Support/TextMate checked out from Subversion and I've poked at ~/Library/Application Support/ TextMate and couldn't find anything there that would create this behavior. Is there anything I need to do to enable this smart comments. And if not, how can I debug this? Thanks, -Oscar -- pgp fingerprint: BC64 2E7A CAEF 39E1 9544 80CA F7D5 784D FB46 16C1

Markdown: Meta Info?

by Stefan Brantschen

Hi list - "xhtml2article" (in the Markdown bundle) has definitions to transform xhtml meta-tags/info into LaTeX definitions/tags. Can I define this meta-information, such as the author, in the Markdown file? If not, how do I get this meta-info into LaTeX? Thanks for any hint. With regards - Stefan

help with workaround with known bug

> I don't speak Perl, so I was just talking generally... but each of > those \t's is a tab, so maybe remove two? Yeah, it works to remove two of the tabs, but since I also don't speak Perl I can't tell why it's doing that. And that sort of bothers me, that it is clearly marked as inserting two, but it actually inserts four. Anyone speak Perl?

help with workaround with known bug

by Oliver Taylor

First off, Allan, for build 989 you're my hero. Second, > If I understand the problem correct, the script below does that. > Input set to 'Entire Document', Output to 'Insert as Text'. > Gerd Seems like you understand it quite well. I'll test it over the next few days to see if it holds up. Looks like it will. One small thing... Ideally, the text that is grabbed and placed via the script should end up being selected so that it can easily be over-ridden. Is there an easy fix for the script that will do that? Thanks a lot guys.

running untitled python scripts

by Jacob Rus

If you try to run an untitled Ruby file, the Ruby bundle saves a temp file, and then runs that. In Python, we are first required to save the file somewhere. I find myself saving lots of files in the trash or in /tmp. What do people think of changing the Python run command to mimic the Ruby run command? I would just change it myself, but perhaps someone has a reason to prefer the existing behavior. -Jacob

help with workaround with known bug

by Oliver Taylor

Allan recently isolated a bug I found to be in the regular expression library TextMate uses and we're waiting for a response. While we wait I was looking to implement the feature that crashed TextMate and I hoped you all could help me out with some ruby or perl (or whatever) voodoo. The bug is explained here: http://ollieman.net/videos/find-bug.mov The expected behavior is explained here: http://ollieman.net/videos/desired.mp4 It works the rest of the time, it's just when at the beginning of the document that it crashes. Thanks in advance for any help. --oliver P.S. Are these videos a good way to ask questions? I feel like it's difficult to articulate without actually showing you.

BlitzMax Bundle

by Tom Hancocks

Hello all, I'm relatively new to TextMate, only been using it for a few weeks, and I have decided it quite possibly the best way for me to develop my games, programs and websites in. Unfortunately it when I downloaded it did not do any BlitzMax, which is one of the main IDE's I use. I began to look around and I couldn't find one anywhere. Anyway I began to develop my own, and I have just today gotten it to a working stage. There are still limitations in it, which I'm looking in to on how to correct. Anyway, here is a link to a post on my blog about it, and where you can download it. I hope people like it, as it has taken quite a bit doing and learning of TextMate's bundle system.

Idea for Selecting Between Multiple Snippets

by Daniel Harple

When a snippet with the same tab trigger/key command is activated you get a menu item with which one you would like to select. Unfortunately you can't use [C-n or C-p][1] so you must either use the mouse or the arrow keys. How about each snippet is assigned a number which would activate the snippet? [1]: Please fix this :) -- Daniel

TmCodeBrowser update (recommended)

by Gerd Knops

A new TmCodeBrowser version is available here: http://www.cocoabits.com/TmCodeBrowser/ This update is recommended to all TmCodeBrowser users. It deals with ctags occasionally hanging and prevents TextMate to hang also when this happens. To install: - Save all open files in TextMate (just in case) - Download and open the dmg - Double-click on the bundle TextMate will take care of the installation. Gerd

am I missing something? per-project variables

When I watched the sqleditor screen-cast, I swear I watched him open a per-project variable list (like the Preferences -> Advanced -> Shell Variables).

Macro recording logo

by Urbanose

Greetings everybody, When you're recording a macro, an ugly logo, which seems to be partly taken from iPhoto's, appears at the bottom on the right hand corner of the window. I replaced it with a beautiful red dot and here's the result : Of course, it's also pulsating, like the previous one. If you like it, here's the file that you have to put in TextMate.app/ Contents/Ressources. Hit "Replace" at the message the Finder will prompt. Urbanose

Bundles: R; LaTeX deep include parsing

by Theorik

POST User-Agent: Xnntp/beta04 (PPC Mac OS 10.3) Dear List, I've recently discovered TextMate and am – so far - quite impressed because it integrates so well with the environment (vim and emacs don't [yet]) and still has some useful features and extensibility. However, I have got two simple questions, to which I don't really find a good answer on the web (my fault, probably): – I'm not sure who develops the R bundle; the highlighting is quite okay, the comments aren't (commenting uses C style by default; this doesn't work). I copied over the Python or Perl definitions (#) with the right scope marker. Is such a trivial change this worth asking for a svn account, or where should such suggestions be directed? – One feature from Emacs' reftex mode (for LaTeX) I'd like to have in TextMate would be the recursive scanning for section commands, i.e. seeing all the sections etc. from the current master document and all (recursively) included files. Is this possible and I am to stupid to find it (perhaps using the wrong search terms)? This is an extremely practical thing for longer documents, because one can go from (the file containing) part I (or a file included by it) to a chapter in (the file containing) part III (or a file included by it). Have a nice Labour Day, Cheers, Theorik

Infinite loop bug in ctags?

by Trevor Harmon

I seem to have discovered an infinite loop bug in ctags, which TextMate depends on. 1. Create a new document 2. Paste in the text "This is a buggy <Java> program" 3. Change file type to Java 4. Save At this point, TextMate beachballs and I have to force quit. After that, I find that a ctags process is still running and consuming 100% of the CPU. Can anyone reproduce this? Trevor P.S. TextMate 1.5.1 (948)

overwriting opening tag doesn't mirror on the closing tag.

by Alain Ravet

Hi all, I've just watched the insert_html_tag movie, and I cannot reproduce the "overtype the tag name" action, where replacing the opening tag - p by div - is mirrored at the closing tag. When I do it, the closing tag is not modified. "tab into the body of the tag" doesn't work either (it just inserts a tab character, instead of having the cursor jump into the tag body area). What am I doing wrong? Alain

/usr/local/bin/mate throwing segmentation fault after Tiger upgrade

by Benjamin Jackson

Hey all, This is a bit OT, as I'm pretty sure the problem is not restricted to the mate binary, but seems to be affecting any shell command that triggers a GUI event. /usr/bin/open is throwing the same error, as is growlnotify. Does anyone have any idea what this might be related to? Thanks, Ben ___________________ Ben Jackson Diretor de Desenvolvimento ben(a)incomumdesign.com http://www.incomumdesign.com

Sending to R console rather than R.app

by Alan Schussman

Regarding the recent R discussion, this came across the R users list today. The author has put together some scripts that interacts with the console version of R via vim. He's reported that it doesn't yet work on OS X, but perhaps his code may be useful for working out some of the problems/goals that people have been raising with TextMate/R. http://www.uft.uni-bremen.de/chemie/ranke/index.php?page=vim_R_linux Cheers- -Alan

Known problem when dragging multiple images into HTML file?

by John Tsombakos

Hi, I just tried dragging several selected image files from a Finder window into an HTML document, and the code it generates is very incorrect: <img src="/Users/john/Pictures/P1010012.JPG" width="1024" height="768" alt="<img src="/Users/john/Pictures/P1010013.JPG" width="1024" height="768" alt="P1010013" />" /> It looks like it's putting the second image tag into the placeholder for the alt attribute. Dragging more will continue the problem over and over. Is this a known problem? Thanks! jt

Bug in HTML display

by Trevor Harmon

There seems to be a bug in the HTML display window of TextMate. 1. Save the following Java code as test.java (the misspelling of "String" is intentional): class test { private java.util.LinkedList<Strin> blah; } 2. Open the file and hit Command-B to build On my TextMate, I see a line that looks like this: private java.util.LinkedList<Strin> blah; It looks like TextMate is properly escaping the greater-than character but forgot about the less-than character. Is there a way to fix this on my end, or do I have to wait until the next bug-fix release of TextMate? Trevor

Future versions of TextMate?

by Joe

I'm thinking about buying TextMate and am curious about future versions - such as: 1. What's planned? Is there a roadmap somewhere? 2. When? For me, sftp integration is a big deal. Right now I check out locally and use rsync to update the server (before you make other recommendations, I've tried cyberduck, interarchy, I DO use SVN, etc.), and it's borderline tolerable. Joe

Subversion and Merging?

by Eric Coleman

I know this doesn't belong here, but Im looking for some quick information: I have the following structure: branches/ tags/ trunk/ In my repository. Inside trunk is version 1 of our application. I want to start on 1.1 which is actually a major rewrite of almost everything. So I create a 1.1 branch. and remove all files in the branch Now, when I'm finished with the 1.1 branch, how do I merge it into trunk? can/do I just remove everything in trunk and merge the branch stuff down? The entire file structure is changing for version 1.1 Any insight would be appreciated :) Eric Coleman

FileMerge revisited

by Trevor Harmon

I have a follow-up to Aparajita's recent thread about adding FileMerge support to TextMate. I really like the idea, but as Chris pointed out, it shouldn't be necessary to clone the Subversion bundle or add special environment variables to TextMate. That's because Subversion isn't hard-coded to use diff; it can run any utility you want, as long as its arguments are diff-compatible. All you need to do is add a diff-cmd setting to ~/.subversion/config. The problem, though, is that TextMate is hard-coded for diff. If you look at the svn_diff.rb file in the Subversion bundle, it forces svn to run diff instead of the user's diff-cmd. I think the best solution, then, is to change this file so that it's not hard-coded. Not only would this add support for FileMerge [1], but it would add support for any other diff utility, as well. With that goal in mind, I've modified svn_diff.rb and posted my changes here: http://vocaro.com/trevor/files/svn_diff.rb To try it out, simply replace your existing svn_diff.rb with this one. You'll then be able to specify a custom diff utility by setting the diff-cmd variable in ~/.subversion/config [2]. The next time you run a Subversion diff command, TextMate will automatically run your preferred diff utility. If you comment out the diff-cmd line (or delete the config file entirely), TextMate will go back to using the standard diff utility as before. The only functional change here is that if you specify a custom diff- cmd and a file has no changes, you'll see no output when doing a diff on it, not even a tooltip [3]. The problem here is that with the regular diff, no output means no changes, but with custom (graphical) diff utilities, usually nothing is printed to stdout, even when there are changes. So, the command can't simply look at stdout and know whether changes were detected or not. With that caveat, I hope some of you can try this out and let me know what you think. I'm hoping that with the proper vetting it can be checked into the repo. After all, it's a pretty low-impact change. No new bundles, no new commands, just different behavior when specifying a custom diff-cmd. (If none is specified, TextMate works exactly as it did before.) Trevor [1] Unfortunately, opendiff (FileMerge's command-line launcher) is not diff compatible. You'll need a wrapper script like this one: http://vocaro.com/trevor/files/filemerge (It's buggy, though. Although it works great for diffs against BASE, whenever the network is involved, such as diffs with HEAD or PREV, it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Can anyone help?) [2] I've posted an example config file here: http://vocaro.com/trevor/ files/config [3] When no custom diff-cmd is specified, you'll get a tooltip that says "No differences found."

New bundle: Edit data on MySQL server in Textmate

Three times a charm, or so they say. Now properly: I've created a bundle for textmate that allows one to edit data (for instance, html templates) stored inside a MySQL database. More info and a simple screencast can be found at http://vivified.net/journal/sqledit-textmate-bundle I hope someone finds this useful -- I did. cheers, Bastiaan Terhorst

A Static Gutter?

by Mark Huot

Hello, Is there anyway for texmate to have the gutter stick to the left side of the window even when scrolling horizontally? I've seen it mentioned several times in the wiki and the consensus seemed to be that it would be added in 1.3, but in 1.5.1 I still can not find it. Thanks Mark

performance ceiling

by Oliver Taylor

I'm interested if anyone else can duplicate this behavior. It seems like I'm hitting some kind of performance ceiling when typing in lines with more than 400 characters. 1. type "lorem" then tab. 2. click in the middle of the generated text-block and repeat. 3. repeat this several times. On my machine (with a completely fresh install of TextMate build985) my typing slows down to about half-speed. The key here is that the slowdown only happens when you are typing in the middle of the text-block; that is to say, in the middle of a very long line. When typing on a new line, everything seems normal. Is TextMate ill-equipted to handle lines this long or is my machine messed up? Anyone else out there see this same thing? Any suggestions?

folders for bundle commands

by Oliver Taylor

Is it on the agenda to add support for folders within the bundles, so we can group commands, snippets, etc.? I've got about 50 commands in my bundle now and I'm sure they are all very confusing to anyone that opens up the commands, but if I would group the commands (arbitrarily) I'm sure people could find things in the bundle much faster.

Close Last Tag Shortcut

by John Tsombakos

Hi, Is there a keyboard shortcut to close the most recently opened HTML tag? For example, I typed <h1>something then hit some key combo that would automatically insert the </h1>? (I was just watching the TurboGears video and it looked like he was auto-closing his tags. It looks like an older version of TextMate.) I searched the online manual and did a search of this mailing list, but couldn't find anything. Thanks! jt

Active4D bundle has taken over HTML

It looks like the latest update to the Active 4D bundle has claimed the .html extension. If I open an HTML file that wasn't created in TextMate, the language gets set to Active4D (HTML). Sure, it's easy to switch, but how do I change it back so it defaults to HTML? Thanks! jt
