hello:)
I've some difficulties with the macro "Convert ASCII Symbol to LaTeX",.
arrowShortcuts.rb is there :
/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle/Support/
bin/arrowShortcuts.rb
and in the macro we have : command = "\"$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/bin/
arrowShortcuts.rb\"";
or Show TM_* Variables give :
TM_BUNDLE_PATH=/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/
TextMate.tmbundle
TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT=/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/
TextMate.tmbundle/Support
so i think that the script is not found !
the script is fine because i put the code in a command and the
command works very well
But i've a question
TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT is unique or this variable depends on Bundle ?
how do I have to make so that works?
Thanks
Alain
Hi guys,
The sexy and helpful textmate manual says I can fold/unfold code
blocks using my F1 key. But I can't get it to work. What needs to
be selected? Where should my caret be placed? Do I have to utter
some secret magical phrase while clicking F1?
Thanks,
Sean

Total bummer, although this still may be possible using "begin" and
"end"
So, to restate my question in a more clear way... (thanks for your
patience Haris) I know nothing about programming...
I'm trying to run a perl search/replace command via a 'bundle
command'. I've entered the following into the 'Edit Command' box:
perl -pe '
s/^([A-Z]+.*[A-Z]*\s*)\n(\(.+\))\n(.+)$/\n\n\t\t\t\t$1\n\t\t\t$2\n\n
$3/g;
'
I've set the input to 'Entire Document' and the output to 'Create New
Document'.
But when I run the command none of the tabs or newlines I've
specified in the replace section of the command are applied to the
text in question. I've also tried the command with the 'e' option at
the end which, as far as I can tell, is supposed to evaluate the
right side of the search/replace command as regex... but it's not
working.
Any help is appreciated.
Just so you know, I'm trying to write a set of commands that will
transform the plai-text output from Final Draft when exporting a
screenplay. If I can get this working then I can bring all my scripts
over to TextMate.
As an example, this:
-----------------
OLIVER
(I want to tell you)
I've got things to say.
Dr. Robert
-----------------
should look like this:
---------------------------
OLIVER

The Go To File command doesn't show files in the same easy-to-read
hierarchy as the project drawer. This is especially evident when a
project contains many files that have been carefully arranged into
custom groups. In this situation, the flat list of the Go To File
dialog isn't as easy to navigate as the project drawer.
This is why I like to select files directly from the drawer instead
of with Go To File. With mouse navigation, this works fine; I can
simply point and click. But I prefer to use the keyboard as much as
possible, and there doesn't seem to be any way to move the keyboard
focus to the project drawer (unless of course I use the mouse, but
that defeats the whole point of keyboard navigation). Is there some
hidden key combo not mentioned in the manual that will do this? Thanks,
Trevor
I'm trying to get what seems like a simple custom coloring rule
working. As a simple test, I just want to set a custom color for all
characters between <code> and </code>.
I added this to the HTML language definition:
{ name = 'markup.code.html';
begin = '<(code)>';
end = '</(code)>';
captures = { 1 = { name = 'entity.name.tag.html'; }; };
patterns = ( { include = '$self'; } );
},
I then went into the Fonts & Colors panel and set a custom color for
the scope markup.code.html, but I don't see any effect.
I read Allan's blog post on scopes and it really seems like the above
should work, but I'm finding a lot of conflicting information on this
topic. The wiki mentions a number of things are out of date so I'm
not sure where the authoritative docs are. The blog? The wiki? If so,
which page?
The full explanation of scope is useful (assuming it's up to date),
but it would be really nice to have some simple, practical examples
just to get started. I believe instant gratification as a strong
motivator for further research. :)
Thanks!

You know, I never even thought of that. I'll give it a shot.
Still, I'd like to know how to run a perl search/replace command with
regex in the replace side properly for future reference.

tried that, didn't work.

I'll try these things and report in the morning on my progress. To

Sorry, what I meant this that I'm using the search and replace perl
string inside a bundle command.

Here's what i managed to come up with:
begin = '^[A-Z]{2,10}.*[A-Z]*(\s*|\()$';
end = '\.$|\?$|\!$|--$|-$';
...which suits my needs *okay* but not perfectly.
----------
I'm using the following (adapted from Dr. Drang's suggestion):
^([A-Z]+.*[A-Z]*\s*)\n(\(.+\))\n(.+)$
for a search and replace string like this one:
s/^([A-Z]+.*[A-Z]*\s*)\n(\(.+\))\n(.+)$/\n\n\t{4}$1\n\t{3}$2\n\{2}$3/;
...which makes sense to me, but it doesn't insert those tabs or
newlines when piped thru a command. Clearly I'm missing something
here. As you can no-doubt tell, I'm a complete noob when it comes to
all this programing.

Hello
I am a professor of mathematics and my essential activity is to
create exercises which I arrange in a structure called "Base"
Often, I work in the following situation:
I create a file "exercise.tex", i put this file in the "Base"
then I create a new file "try.tex" :
\documentclass{myclass}
\begin{document}
\input{exercise.tex}
\end{document}
I do not have enough knowledge on scripts to obtain this:
In Textmate, when i work on an file exercise.tex, i would like wih
one command or script (?)
to compile "try.tex" directly.
I think that a modification of "LATEX & VIEW" should be enough...
With this idea and
with FILE = exercise.tex (the file which I create)
with VAR_FAV_CLASS = myclass
1) modification of FILE in ---> NEWFILE
NEWFILE =
"\documentclass[]{VAR_FAV_CLASS}
\begin{document}
\input{$File}
\end{document}"
2) Compilation of NEWFILE like in "LATEX & VIEW"
Is it possible ?
Would somebody have an idea to build this script?
in LATEX & VIEW, line 35/36 there is
if [ "$TEX" != latexmk.pl ]
then "$TEX" ${TM_LATEX_OPTIONS:=--shell -escape -
interaction=nonstopmode -file-line-error-style} "$1"
I'm not sure but "$1" is perhaps the file I want modify
Thanks

I'd like to find and replace a variable inside of a document. How can
I do this? [VAR] Represents the variable:
Find: title="[VAR]"
Replace With: title="dummytext"
Text in Document I want it to affect:
title="Webmaill"
title="Control Panel"
title="Customer Service"
title="Web Hosting"
How can I do this in TextMate?
Also TextMate has no way to upload/browse SFTP/SSH/ or FTP? The price
is way to steep for an application that can't connect and upload the
edited files directly.
Please let me know your thoughts,
Best Regards,
Court Kizer

Yeah, sorry.
Matching the 2nd line (but not the 5th): I want to match any line
that begins and ends with a parenthetical ... ^\(.*\)$ ... but only
when the line is directly preceded by a line of all capitol letters,
Matching the 6th (but not the 3rd): Actually, I got this one
backwards. I want to match the 3rd but not the 6th. So... Any line
that is directly preceded by the match I described above.

Hi,
I already know that it is not possible by default to have a different
tab and indention size.
I'm new to TxMt so I want to ask if this is possible to achieve via
scripts / bundles ?
One example to show my need. I'm working in a Python projekt, where
the interpreter handles one tab as 8 chars. We use an indention of 4
chars.
My workaround at the moment: set Tabs to 8 convert all tabs to spaces
the set tabs to 4 soft spaces.
If somebody has hints, I'll work on it for myself.
Thx Jonatan
Hi,
It would be helpful if the language bundle editor had a pop-up hierarchical
menu of the standard name
Something like:
keyword
meta
string
support
variable -> other.
storage parameter.
string
So when writing a language syntax, and looking for names, you can just have
the insertion point in the right location, click on the pop up to see what
is appropriate, then either it inserts when you release the menu, or there
is an insert button beside it.

I don't know where else to turn for help with regex, so I turn to
you. Consider the following:
------------------------
ONCE
(twice)
Three times a lady.
Not as much as the Gambler.
(This sucks)
How would you know?
------------------------
How do I match the 2nd line but not the 5th?
How do I match the 6th, but not he 3rd?
Is this possible?
P.S. Do you guys have any really good references for regex (aside
from the manuel), where I can hunt down problems like this?
I just wrote a blog entry on a convenience command for Ruby on
Rails... but I'm not sure to whom I should address this. I'd like to
see it added to the default Rails bundle that ships with future
TextMate versions if others find it useful. How should I go about
submitting this for review?
Thanks,

Hi guys,
I get errors when I try to run some Ruby scripts in TM.
NB: I don't have those errors when I run these scripts in Bash (even
from inside TM) or in IRB
I have "TM_RUBY /usr/local/bin/ruby" in my shell variables.
e.g.
When using erb (example taken from Programing Ruby):
---------
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
require 'erb'
input = %{\
<% high.downto(low) do |n| # set high, low externally %>
<%= n %> green bottles, hanging on the wall
<%= n %> green bottles, hanging on the wall
And if one green bottle should accidentally fall
There'd be <%= n-1 %> green bottles, hanging on the wall
<% end %>
}
high,low = 10, 6
erb = ERB.new(input)
erb.run

NB: This script works, but I get the error, sometimes scripts using
sqlite3 doesn't work at all, sometimes I only get "Program exited

I have other errors of this kind, but examples are more complicated
to share or I didn't take note of them.
Am I missing something?

Okay, that makes sense.
A ranked-order search result makes a lot of sense when the order of
symbols is unimportant and/or there are not enough identical results
to confuse the list. But when there are a lot (say, over 20) of
identical results, the placement in the document becomes very
important, in fact it becomes just as important as the match itself.
A simple way to achieve this is with a search result that also
outputs line-numbers... I know that would do the trick for me. Now
for a crappy mock-up! This is not the prefect example, but you get
the idea.
First I tried an update and got:
svn: Failed to add directory '/Library/Application
Support/TextMate/Bundles/SQL.tmbundle/support': object of the same
name already exists
I deleted the checked out directory and did a fresh checkout and got
the same error!
I notice that the last 2 commits are:
intermediate step to rename support
recover capitalized Support directory
Any ideas what this might be? Possibly some naming clash as a result
of an attempt to rename Support to support.

Hi,
I just wanted to post a nice snippet I just made...er, actually I just
ripped it from the fun (function) snippet. It goes like this:
prototype.${1:method_name} = function(${2:first_argument}) {
${0:// body...}
};
I have it set up to expand on proto<tab>. Actually, after thinking
about it, maybe this would be better:
${1:class_name}.prototype.${2:method_name} = function(${3:first_argument}) {
${0:// body...}
};
Either way, I think this is really useful because like all good snippets
it keeps you from typing a bunch of stuff that is always the same, and
it keeps you from forgetting the trailing semicolon (which the fun
snippet and auto-close brace omit).
Any chance on getting something like this included with Textmate out of
the box? Forgive me if this has already been discussed; a quick search
on the list and wiki didn't turn up anything on this subject.
Also, the fun snippet that's included uses "# body..." instead of "//
body...". Is this intentional, or was the hash just forgotten when
porting the snippet from another language?

There has been some talk in the past about TextMate's undesired
tendency to use a software generated bold for the Bitstream Vera Sans
Mono font.
One fix seems to be to run:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS
Afterwards one will have to reboot the machine, but then the bold
shows up as drawn. And what a difference it makes:
Though I don't know for how long this fix will work. And it will
still look incorrect when the bold text is light on a dark background.
Hi All,
I'm evaluating TextMate and find it very useful, but I can't get it
to remember the [BBEdit] Theme that I have downloaded.
1: Does the non-licensed version not remember importet Themes?
2: Is something else wrong?
Here's how I do it:
- Doubble-click the Theme file in the Finder -> opens it in TextMate
and activates it..
- Quit TM = It's gone from the Theme selector in Prefs, but still in
my AppSupport folder...
Hints?

Hi,
I'm working on a grammar for Io (www.iolanguage.com) and I've got a
basic one working. I notice that in the other languages I've looked
at, typing a "{" , getting the auto-paired "}" , and hitting return
with the cursor in the middle, gets you a new line and the
indentation decreased. Like so:
before:
if(true) {}
hit return:
if(true) {
}
Now, in Io, matching parens serve as block delimiters (effectively
anyway). So you could have this statement:
if(true) then (
// do something
)
So, I'd like to have the same behavior for parens as one gets for
braces, but I can't seem to locate where this is enacted. As far as
I can tell, there is no key in the grammar or language preferences to
auto-expand this sequence, but I'm new to all this.
Does anyone know if this is part of the language definition system
that I can control?
Thanks in advance,
John

When searching in the "go to symbol" pop-up, I find that because the
search alphabetizes the results, it's very much the opposite of useful.
In my screenwriting bundle it's possible to have over 20 matches for
the same symbol-search-string, if I can't see those results in the
order they are in in the document, the search is useless. Wouldn't
this be a problem in other languages as well?
There is a "Keep Symbols Alphabetized" option in the pop-up at the
bottom of the window, why not the search pop-up? Am I missing a
preference somewhere?
hello:)
I can't delete a space with the key "delete" or with the key <- also.
I need to delete the file preference of textmate
i would like to know if i made a bad thing and if can modify the bad
prefs
finally which can be the origin of this problem?
Greetings Alain Matthes
In the bundle I've created I'm attempting to refine my scopes. Take
the following example:
INT. SHIPYARD DOCKS - DAY
The above line falls under the scopes "text.splay.screenplay" (the
document) and "splay.slugline" (the element). What I want is to be
able to define the three separate elements: "INT", "SHIPYARD DOCKS",
"DAY" as independent scopes, while retaining their status as
"splay.slugline" So "INT" would fall under the jurisdiction of
"text.splay.screenplay splay.slugline splay.slugline.setting".
I guess the simple question is: how do you stack more than two (the
document and the element) scopes?
In Markdown a link gets text.html.markdown,
markup.paragraph.markdown, markup.underline.link.markdown... how do I
do that?
I recorded a macro to search forwards and backwards for
(?=(?:private|public)( static)? ), which is working nicely for
ActionScript, but it'd be interesting to see it tied into the language
grammers somehow. Any thoughts?

Not sure what you need to debug this, but all of a sudden indentation

I'm stumped again. I got > comments working for plain text documents

bundles, using source.php as the selector:
/* preferences */
{
shellVariables = (
{ name = 'TM_COMMENT_START';
value = '// ';
},
{ name = 'TM_COMMENT_END';
value = '';
},
{ name = 'TM_COMMENT_MODE';
value = 'line';
},
);
}
Doesn't work! I've tried with .php files set to both HTML and PHP
language types.
Idears?
Thanks again, Q
PS: Is it _always_ appropriate to use "HTML" as a file's language? I
noticed the "Source -> View source as HTML" command doesn't work unless
you select " X PHP -> Use HTML".

Is this a known bug of Textmate or Spell Catcher X? As both programs
look really nice, I'd be glad to have both work together.

Arrrg! Trying to understand the format of bundle definitions.
Trouble number one: I'm trying to change the type of comments used for
plain text types. I've added the following to the patterns array of the
"Plain Text" language definition:
{ name = 'comment.line.right-angle-bracket.text';
match = '>.*$';
}
And nothing happens. I then tried creating a new bundle for a new type
of document ("Test Doc") and setting the patterns array to only the
above. Nothing.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks if you can help!

hello:)
Allan,since Texlive 2005 or Tetex 3 this code
I announce you that since Tex one should not any more
use this code (used in the Latex templates)
\newif\ifpdf
\ifx\pdfoutput\undefined
\pdffalse % we are not running PDFLaTeX
\else
\pdfoutput=1 % we are running PDFLaTeX
\pdftrue
\fi
must be replaced by \usepackage{ifpdf}
% Use: LaTeX: \usepackage{ifpdf}
% plain: \input ifpdf.sty
% The package provides the switch \ifpdf:
% \ifpdf
% ... do things, if pdfTeX is running in pdf mode ...
% \else
% ... other TeX or pdfTeX in dvi mode ...
% \fi
% The package can also be used to set global
% documentclass options:
% \RequirePackage{ifpdf}
% \ifpdf
% \documentclass[pdftex,...]{...}
% \else
% \documentclass[...]{...}
% \fi
note in texlive 2005 :
Last year, we kept \pdfoutput and other primitives undefined for DVI
output, even though
the pdfetex program was being used. This year, as promised, we undid
that compatibility
measure. So if your document uses \ifx\pdfoutput\undefined to test if
PDF is being
output, it will need to be changed. You can use the package ifpdf.sty
(which works under
both plain TEX and LATEX) to do this, or steal its logic.

Hello all, hope to pick yer brains...
I notice that you can define multiple files for a template, but I can't
figure out how to create multiple files when running the template. Why
else would TM use multiple files in a template? But then again, there
seems to be only one $TM_NEW_FILE variable per template.
I'm trying to setup a template for a particular case when I will always
need several files at once. For now I'll just define one template for
each file I will need generated.
A quick side question, how can I populate env variables at runtime? If
my template has ${WHAT_DID_I_HAVE_FOR_LUNCH_TODAY} and I want to run a
template every day... is it possible to popup a dialog with fields to
fill-in or something?
Thanks!

Strange Find and Replace Bug - r906
Summary:
Doing a selection based find and replace consistently inserts many lines
of code when it should be only replace one word with another single word.
Reproducing The Bug:
* Open the attached (.rb) file
* Switch to Ruby on Rails editor mode
* Do a full line selection on line #39
* Hit cmd+f to go into the finder window
* Replace the word ":now" with "now" while using the shift button to do
a selection only replace
Results:
* Replaces the entire line #39 with only the word "now"
* Performs a selection from line #39 down to #110
* Duplicates a bunch of code under line #110 (copies and pastes the new
selection)
Details:
* Ignore and wrap are checked. Reg exp. is unchecked.
* Restarting Textmate doesn't seem to fix the issue.
* Soyru in IRC helped me confirm the bug, so it is not specific to my
situation.
Environment:
* I don't use manager hacksies.
* I haven't edited the default bundle editor commands.
* I do use quicksilver, starting it is ctrl+alt+cmd+space; Everything
else is at defaults

There are two heredoc-rules for the PHP grammar:
A generic one and an HTML one with HTML Syntax (the first rule even).
I improved the HTML one a little by including the PHP variables and
made another two for XML and SQL.
Maybe someone with svn write access could include them in the default
grammar. Forking the PHP grammar does not really work as one had to
fork the HTML as well…
Have fun,

Hi Robert, hi Mark (et al.),
I've just downloaded TextMate and subscribed to this list, curious if
there's also a ConTeXt bundle to work with.
As I have read your thread from last year I was wondering how things
are going?
Or does anybody else has good news for us ConTeXters?
Steffen
Thanks Niko,
mysql is definitely in my path. I use tcsh and mysql is there:
setenv PATH /usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH
However /usr/local/mysql/bin/ and other directories that I set in my
path are not reported in the search path that the MySQL bundle tells
me it is using:
"Couldn't find mysql
Locations searched:
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin/
CocoaDialog.app/Contents/MacOS
/bin
/sbin
/usr/bin
/usr/sbin
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin"
I tried modifying the PATH variable in the Advanced pane of TextMate
Preferences, to no avail.
So as a hack, I created a symbolic link to mysql in TextMate using
these commands:
cd /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin
ln -s /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql mysql
It's not pretty but it works. I'd still like to figure out how to
modify the PATH that the SQL Bundle uses ...

I looked through the mailing list history and I know the whole FTP
integrated thing has been talked about a lot already but hear me out;
I just started working for this company where I HAVE to work off of
the server. I don't like it, but that's the way it's gonna have to
be for now (working on it though ;)
So I tried to figure out a way to work with project windows off of
the server and discovered it was impossible... What I do now, is
open all the files via FTP and then drag them to an empty project and
hide all the windows. It's a major pain but I do it once in the
morning and leave it open all day so that's not too bad.
What I would like to know is if there's a way I could automatize the
process, some sort of "add all open windows to empty project" type
macro or something along those lines. Not as good as being able to
save projects on remote servers, but it would be good enough for now...
I also read that someone had some kind of Perl/rsynch combo that sort
of mimicked the project on server idea, but I couldn't find enough
info to get anything working.
Any help in optimizing a remote type workflow would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!
(As a side note, I almost got my boss to switch from BBEdit, but the
whole remote project issue blew it.)

Transmit has a new feature they're calling 'Edit in Whatever.' Edit
any remote file, in any app — even graphics!
<http://www.panic.com/transmit/>
Editing Files in an External Editor
Transmit can edit any remote file, using any local editor. Transmit
will download the file to a temporary directory, and watch the file
for changes. When you hit "Save" in your local editor, and the file
is changed, Transmit will automatically upload the file to the server.
Select the file to be edited.
- Choose File > Edit in [Editor Name]. (The name of the Finder's
default editor for that file type will be displayed.)
- Keep Transmit running while editing the file.
- Make the desired changes in the editor.
- If you want to keep the changes, save the file in the editor.
Transmit will save the file to the server automatically. The editor
can be closed or quit when it is no longer needed.
If you wish to edit files in a different editor than the Finder's
default:
- Right click, or control-click, the file to be edited.
- Choose Edit With > [Name of Editor You Want To Use]
- If the editor you wish to use isn't present, choose Edit With >
Other... and select the editor manually
If you wish to permanently edit files in a different editor than the
Finder's default:
- Choose Transmit > Preferences.
- Click Files.
- Click the icon next to Custom File Editors.
- Type the extension you wish to associate (for example, html), and
choose the application you wish to edit with.
I have mysql 4.1 installed on my machine in /usr/local/mysql/bin/.
It's up and running just fine.
When I run the "Execute Selection as MySQL Query" command from
TextMate, I get the following error message:
"Couldn't find mysql
Locations searched:
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin/
CocoaDialog.app/Contents/MacOS
/bin
/sbin
/usr/bin
/usr/sbin
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin"
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Here's what I'd like to do:
On my webserver, I'll edit my .bash_profile to include and alias for 'mate'
to a shell script. The shell script will do the following:
1. secure copy the argument file to my local tmp folder
2. open the the local tmp file with 'mate -w'
3. once I finish editing the file in TextMate and close it, secure copy the
new file to replace the file on the webserver
The problem is, I don't know anything about shell scripting. :-)
But I'm wondering if anyone else already has something like that or would be
willing to help write one.
Any other ideas for accomplishing the same goal (edit remote files with
TextMate) are also welcome.
Thanks,
Simon
P.S.-I saw the copy to tmp folder idea in this useful view safari source
applescript:
http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/2005-September/005727.html
I did a super quick search and didn't notice anything, so I am
posting here (feel free to tell me to shuddap if it's been discussed
before).
Isn't there a way we could customize bundles that are "added" in. I
was thinking that when you do an update, if a bundle gets updated,
but I have a "customized" version (aka, i added a few things) I won't
get the updated bundle. Is this correct? Or is textmate smart and
only inserts my updates?

Hello all,
I'm trying to work out how to order files/folders in the project drawer.
I dragged and dropped files in to the drawer ordered however they're

hi everybody.
i really LOVE the TODO-Bundle (thanks to whoever wrote it). as i'm
using it alot, i added some features:
- i like to see, wether s/th is TODO, FIXME or CHANGED. so i added
these words to the list and colored them differently.
- i added buttons to hide each category.
- as i'm a programming nube, i add own "changed"-comments
("NikosChange") to stuff i change in my RoR- and Joomla-projects to
keep track of what i do (wrong ;-). i added this as another category.
adopt this to your needs.
as i'm a programming nube (but you know that already), i'm all but
shure that i didn't make mistakes in my changes (you know that, too).
so if anybody and especially the author of the TODO-bundle finds bugs
in my code, please tell me over this list.
regards, niko.
ps: excuse my bad english.

I have a server that gets all the åäö (and the like) botched when I
upload my stuff to it. I hate to see all the ä stuff when I
edit, so I thought a macro to do a project wide search and replace
would be nice just before uploading the stuff.
I tried to record a macro that would do a project wide find/replace,
but it didn't seem to work. Suggestions?

I agree this plugin is fantastic, but I had to remove it after just a
few minutes of use as I had no idea I often hold modifier keys while
I'm thinking, and it kept popping up when I didn't want it to.
Simply changing the method to invoke it would make it immensely more
useful.
Thanks for your work on this! Very cool idea..

Hello,
I'm evaluating TextMate (coming from Vim) and I really like what I
see. I'm now trying to create my first Bundle, to deal with some
editing I do every week to create the Caml Weekly News. The format
I'm using is xml, so I'd like to have a Bundle with the same language
syntax, a few new snippets, and a command stolen from the HTML bundle.
About the language syntax, I'm a little confused by what the manual
says (http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/
language_grammars#language_grammars) about scopeName:
"scopeName (line 1) — this should be a unique name for the grammar,
following the convention of being a dot-separated name where each new
part specializes the name. Normally it would be a two-part name where
the first is either text or source, and the second is the name of the
language or document type. But if you are specializing an existing
type, you probably want to derive the name from the type you are
specializing. E.g. Markdown is text.html.markdown and Ruby on Rails
(rhtml files) is text.html.rails. The advantage of deriving it from
(in this case) text.html is that everything which works in the
text.html scope will also work in the text.html.«something» scope
(but with a lower precedence than something specifically targeting
text.html.«something»)."
So I tried a scopeName of "text.xml.CWN" to see if I would get XML
like syntax hilighting for free, but it did not work. I had to do:
{ scopeName = 'text.xml.cwn';
fileTypes = ( );
patterns = ( { include = 'text.xml'; } );
}
including the text.xml language.
Is this the correct way to proceed?
Another question is about the presence of a support directory in a
tmbundle (as there is one in the html bundle). Do they need to be
created by hand in the Finder, or is there a way to add a Support
file using the Bundle Editor?
My last question is about snippets: it seems that it's not possible
to invoke a snippet while completing one (that is, in the middle of
tabbing through all the fields to fill). Is it the case?
Thanks a lot,
Alan

Is there a way to run some code from a Bundle before TextMate opens a
file? The idea would be that when I run either:
$ mate foo.c
or
$ mate myprojectdir
and then click on foo.c I get to see if foo.c is version controlled
and then I check it out if it is. The version control system that I
use (BitKeeper) has a 'get' mode that checks out the files read-only,
and before editing you have to check them out in 'edit' mode. I have
written a function in a bundle that does this, but I have to call it
manually. I would like that to be automatic...
Thanks,
-Oscar

Hi Folks,
inspired by the UI thread I hacked together a TextMate plugin. It
shows all bundle shortcuts applying to the current scope whenever a
modifier key is held for more than a second.
It really is just a proof of concept and missing some features. I am
not even sure if I will continue to work on it and am kind of busy
the upcoming week, but I was curious about what people thought about
that one. Is it useful at all?
Get it here: http://www.cocoabits.com/TmShortcutSnitch/

I think this should be pretty straightforward, declaring the .heredoc
scopes to inherit styling from html (in cases where all heredocs are
HTML styled) or making a new .heredoc-html scope to match only names
with "HTML" in them which then inherit from HTML styles.
Could someone on the list help out with details?
best wishes, Eric

Has the problem with using environment variables for macros been
solved yet? I have a problem using the macro "Generic Completion" in
the LaTeX bundle. It complains about "/Macros/LaTeXcomplete.pl" not
being found, and since the command line is
command = "\"${TM_BUNDLE_PATH}/Macros/LaTeXcomplete.pl\"";
I suspect it's a problem with setting TM_BUNDLE_PATH.

As far as real-time syntax checking, I've been thinking about throwing
together a solution with a combination of the technique mentioned in
the above link and the awesome stakeout.py script to watch for file
saves. I'll let the list know if/when I get anywhere with it. Peace,

hi there.
somehow i list the symbol-popup and symbol-search functionality in

symbol-finder doesn't find anything.
is there perhaps any bundle i should not filter or s/th like this?
i'm clueless.
any help highly appr., regards, niko.

I must say, when I first started using TextMate I had no idea all the
commands even exited. And even now, after I've developed a fully
functional bundle of my own, I'm still discovering things about
TextMate that are kind of hidden.
Clearly Allan wants the app to be completely transparent, that the
code should be the most important focus of what you are doing and
that the interface should completely disappear and become an
extension of the code itself. And that's what I love about TextMate.
That being said, I think more needs to be done to expose the true
power of TextMate to people who are unaware of that fact that
commands in multiple bundles could apply to what they are doing. I
often don't know of all the possible commands that I could be using
at any given time. Aggregating those commands into a list so that
people can see what is possible, given the current scope, would be a
good thing I think. Be that in a drawer, palette, floating box,
whatever. And I don't think that that would significantly impact the
transparency of the app.
This keyboard combination does nothing when I type it. I have no
idea how to track this down. I have not noticed it doing anything in
any other context (program) either.
Considering the recent spate of "my keyboard bindings are broken"
messages, this sort of thing may not be an uncommon problem.

I've written several commands that access Rails functions (such
as script/generate scaffold) via osascript. They serve me well, and
I'd now like to give them out to the RoR/TextMate community as a
plugin. It would be great to package them together into a single
floating window with a drop down or similar item to provide quick-
access under Window>RailsTools or similar. Both TextMate and plugin
development are fairly new to me -- can anyone give me some hints or
sample code that would help me on my way?
Is it possible to change the key binding for completion, everywhere?
Unfortunately, I'm a converting Emacs user, and very used to hitting
Alt-/ to do completion...
I had a brief look in the manual, but I couldn't see an obvious way to
do this.
Thanks,

Just downloaded your bundle, the Balance Jr Macro is pretty sweet.
Indeed not exactly what I was looking for, and what was previously
very thoroughly and precisely explained by Eric O'Brien, but
nevertheless a very useful addition and a good example to study and
see if I can figure out how to code the functionality myself.
I thought there was a shortcut out of the box for that though, I used
to use it all the time in BBEdit and somehow assumed it was also in
TM. My bad! :) Time to brush up on my regex...

Sorry if this has come up before and sorry if I'm missing something
obvious...
I like to work with tab stops set to 4 characters and use spaces
rather than hard tabs for indentation - otherwise everything gets
messy when you process your file with something that expects 8 column
tabs.
Something seems a little counter-intuitive with the soft tabs setting
in TM. With Soft Tabs (Spaces) selected hitting tab still inserts a
hard tab character. Additionally with Soft Tabs selected Text >
Convert > Tabs to Spaces doesn't seem to do anything - it certainly
leaves plenty of tabs in the files. With Soft Tabs turned off I still
get hard tabs when I hit the tab key - but at least Tabs to Spaces
works.
This is in Perl mode - I haven't tried other modes yet but shall if
it's likely to make a difference.
So - what's the blindingly obvious solution I've missed? :)

I use Change to Column Selection as a quick way of commenting out
selected lines. For instance, if I've got a LaTeX selection that
looks like this:
%\captionwidth{\textwidth}
\begin{comment}
\begin{figure}
%\includegraphics{table2.pdf}
And I want to comment out the entire selection, then I can't use the
Comment Selection command (Command-/) because that simply removes the
existing comments. (I think this is a bug in the Source bundle.)
To work around the problem, I can do Change to Column Selection, then
hit '%', which achieves the desired effect of commenting out all lines:
%%\captionwidth{\textwidth}
%\begin{comment}
%\begin{figure}
%%\includegraphics{table2.pdf}
However, if I later want to remove the commenting I've added, Change
to Column Selection does not work. It seems I am only able to add,
not delete, text during column selection. Is this a bug?
Trevor
P.S. The Comment Selection does work properly for removing the
comments in the latter case, but it seems wrong to have to use one
technique for commenting out a selection and a completely different
one for removing the commenting.
I'm evaluating Tetxtmate and I found a behavior that I'm trying to
see if it is a feature or a bug.
The caret position doesn't match where the character gets inserted.
For example:
function myFunction()
if I position the caret inside the parentheses and I start typing the
character will be inserted to the outside the parentheses
function myFunctionpVal()
instead of
function myFunction(pVal)
I tried it on 2 systems and iMac G5 and a PowerPc Dual G5. same behavior
TextMate version 1.5 (906)
I like the feature set of the editor and would love to use it on
project, but unless I find a way to place the characters at the caret
position is would be really hard to use it..
thanks
The patch below for the Diff Syntax modifies it so that diffs
produced by the Perforce bundle are properly recognized and syntax-
highlighted.
BTW aren't the shortcuts for the commands in the diff bundle
incorrect? They all use 'Shift-Ctrl-Alt-D', which I thought was were
reserved to select a syntax (Diff Syntax did not have a shortcut
assigned, the patch below includes that). Shouldn't the command use
'Shift-Ctrl-D' instead?
Gerd
Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find reference to the problem on
the wiki, so I thought I'd post to the mailing list.
I's using Textmate 1.5 (build 906) under OS X 10.3.9. Whenever I copy
some text to the clipboard, the program crashes. This happens
consistently, whether I'm using new documents or existing files.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!!

hi all and alan -- thanks for a great product.
One suggestion: I think a split pane ala mail.app would be an
improvement over the current drawer. Use of a drawer implies to me,
an optional part of the interface, but when working on a project, the
file list is hardly option, in my opinion. Is there any here that
opens and closes the drawer repeatedly to access their project
listing? A drawer makes window resizing a two step operation -- you
have to first position your window to accommodate your drawer before
doing the resize.. Try it, you'll see what I mean. I think really,
managing the use of space *inside* a window is much more natural than
managing it outside.

This, I am sure, is super newbie basic material, but somehow it
eludes me with tenacity...
What's the shortcut to select text within tags in html? Let's say,
for instance, to select "I am a paragraph" in:
<p>I am a paragraph</p>
I'm ashamed to ask that, so go easy on me, thanks ;)
It seems TextMate fails to notice a c++ function definition if I
write it like this:
static void
foo(
void * a,
void * b,
void * x )
{
}
but all on one line works fine:
static void
foo( void * a, void * b, void * c )
{
}
Has anyone else noticed this? Is there a way for me to fix this
myself or should I wait for an update?
Thank you.

I just checked in a new Scheme language bundle into the svn
repository if anyone's interested.
The bundle is really just syntax coloring at the time being. I cannot
find a working solution for indentation with what TM currently
offers, but maybe someone else can, or we'll get some new nifty
feature into the editor someday that allows me to solve the problem.
Anyway, enjoy! And if you haven't ever programmed in Scheme, please
do! It's a really elegant and fun.

"Strangers have the best candy."
Howdy.
I was just editing some embedded SQL today and though of an
interesting idea.
Modify the new Edit In TextMate global function to work with
selections, and work inside of textmate.
The flow would go something like:
I'm in an asp.net document
I select some embedded SQL
I hit the 'Edit In TextMate' command
It opens my selection in a new textmate window (saved as a file in a
temp folder)
I edit my text like crazy
Save & Close
My original document shows and it replaces my selection with the
contents of that temporary file
This would be SO totally hip!
I'm sure I could whip something like this up as a command, but I
think native support for it might be better.
It might just be easier to modify the global command to either select
all & activate or use an existing selection and activate.
Then just make it work IN textmate and you're set!
yay!
Thanks again for completely changing my life for the better! (the
coding section, anyway)
I LOVE the Edit In TextMate action!!!

Hello list!
I'm absolutely loving TextMate - $50 seems insane for a text editor
until you use it. :)
I'm doing a lot of work with Subversion, and want to be able to
commit a change and upload it to the server as easily as saving a
file. Is there any way to modify the bundle so that it saves the
frontmost window without any dialog asking for a summary? I'll still
use the dialog sometimes but I don't want to have it pop up all of
the time. I realize I can just press enter to move on, but I'm
looking for the fastest possible solution, as I save and refresh
files quite often.
Thanks for any suggestions you may have!

I hate feeling like a pest, and was curious if there was a formal
place to post bugs.
What I noticed is that when you use the SVN bundle, if you pop open
the menu on a selected file in the project drawer, you -must- have a
file already open or you get no menu ;)
Sorry to be a pain :p

I notice that there are a lot of great snippets in the ruby bundle,
but I'm wondering if there is a way to do the self-modifying versions
of these methods. For example, there is collect, but not collect!
Thanks,

In other text editors (in my pre-mac days), I very commonly used the
block editing feature to quickly align code. I would use a regular
expression match/replace to insert in a bunch of whitespace where I
need it, then block select where I want the column to start and shift-
tab to squeeze all of the text back into a nice column.
TextMate does most of the above quite nicely, with the exception of
the shift-tab. Shift-tab does not shift everything left, eventually
squeezing out the whitespace and leaving a nicely aligned column. Can
I do this somehow, and if not could it be added? (I really miss this
feature)
Thanks...

Hey all, sorry for the mass email. If you are not using the LaTeX
bundle, you can safely ignore the rest.
I am currently working on the various completion commands in the
latex bundle, and I am considering dropping bibdesk support in the
completion commands in the following way: Instead of asking bibdesk
for the completion list, I have a command read that does the following:
It collects a list of bib files from the following locations:
1. the files pointed to by the environment (or project specific)
variable TM_LATEX_BIB, space separated (use quotes if the filename
contains spaces).
2. If either the file pointed to by the variable TM_LATEX_MASTER, or
the current document (if saved), or both, contain any text of the
form \bibliography{bibfile}, it adds this bibfile to the list of bib
files to examine.
It scans all these bib files for the cite keys, and uses those for
completion. It will look for titles for the pop-up menu. So there
will be (actually there already are) two commands, one that works
with Esc (normal completion) and one that brings up a pop-up of
possible completions.
The above will be faster than calling Bibdesk through applescript.
And you can of course still create citations by dragging them items
from Bibdesk and dropping them in textmate.
The main question is whether calling Bibdesk has any advantages
compared to the approach I outlined above, and whether the approach
above misses something. Your feedback would be much appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I'll be getting a Mac in the near future, and am completely convinced
that TextMate will become my text editor from day 1.
Until then however, I would really like to get used to the key commands
that TextMate uses (by default), to make the transition as smooth as
possible. Basically, I want to mimic TextMate's key bindings in my
current Windows editor, Komodo.
I've been using 'Emacs shortcuts' in Komodo for a while now, but I
understand that Textmate's key bindings are not completely similar to
Emacs (and I am sure Komodo's 'Emacs' key bindings are not 100% similar
to the real Emacs either).
Is there a complete list of all default TextMate key bindings somewhere?
Also, I've seen messages come by about 'key bindings for switchers' on
this list, but that seems to be focused on people trying to emulate
Windows key bindings in TextMate... Is there anyone that has tried the
opposite, like I would like to do?
Sincerely,
Yuri van der Meer
I used subversion to retrieve the Source bundle, but it doesn't show

I'm trying to write a command that will open the current document in
an external app, here is what I've got:
open -a Final\ Draft\ 7 $TM_FILEPATH
The problem I'm having is that the FilePath (as constructed by
TextMate) does not insert "\" before a space, thus the command in
question is unable to find documents with spaces in the filenames to
pass on to the external app.
Is there another way to do it? What am I missing?
Request:
The Ctrl-T action should see the space as a - directory - separator, and
not bluntly ignore it. (except if some files names contain a space)
Example
/store/index.html
/cart/index.html
/client/index.html
Command 1:
[Ctrl-T] + "in"
=> displays
index.html - store
index.html - cart
index.html - client
Command 2:
[Ctrl-T] + "in cl"
=> SHOULD filter and display
index.html - client

Hi, I'm a very new user of TextMate and it seems to be just what I have
been looking for.
However, I do have a couple of questions that I haven't managed to
resolve from the documentation, Wiki, mail list, etc.
1. Is there a way to highlight (or move the cursor to) a matching
parenthesis, bracket, quote mark, etc?
2. Also, could some kind person step me through the process of Change
All In selection? I seem to keep ending up with a change all in
document....
many thanks in advance

Allan,
Any reason there's no "Page Setup" link in the File Menu? I want to
print out this document, but I want it landscape so the code is all
on 1 line instead of wrapper..
Anyone have another solution? I opened the file in bbedit for now to
print it.

I tried the toggle between single and multline block with the following block:
domains.each do |d|
f[1].sub!(/^#{d[0]}$/, d[1])
end
It converted it into a single line block just fine, but when I toggled
it back to multiline I got this:
domains.each do |d|
f[1].sub!(/^#{d[0]
end$/, d[1]) }
Haven't yet examined the bundle regex but figured I'd post it in case
someone wanted to know.
Thanks,

I'm trying to maximize my use of textmate. One of the first things
I'm doing is looking through the ruby bundle to see what snippets I
can use. I first noticed the hash key/val snippet, which starts with
a colon.
The first thing it does is highlight the key so that I can type in a new key.
The next thing it does is highlight the sample string so that I can
type in something different. However, I'm having trouble typing
something in at this point. If I want to edit the string inside, is
there a key I can type that will put the caret inside the quotes? If
want to edit the string contents, I have to move my cursor over then
back. If I start typing, it erases the quotes. If I type quotes, it
surrounds the quotes in another set of quotes. Is this behavior there
because the snippet writer assumed I would not always want to put
strings in the hash buckets? This is understandable, but as a
shortcut for creating symbol/string combinations it is actually quite
tedious.
I figured maybe I was missing some secret keyboard shortcut that would
put me inside a fresh set of empty quotes instead of the sample that
is highlighted.
Thanks,
Carl
I'm using the run script command in the ruby bundle. Is there a way
that I can tell it what to pass as the command line parameters? It
seems to be passing in the filename of the script to itself.
Thanks,
Carl
What's the best way you've found to open some remote folders/files in TextMate?
* the files are kept remotely on a Linux box
* there is SSH (and presumably SFTP) access; I'm not sure if there's
Samba access enabled
* I want to be able to use the built in Subversion tools
* I absolutely want to use the various "project" features of TextMate
that I'd get if I open a folder with TextMate
I briefly tried using Cyberduck, but that would only let me open
individual files (rather than whole folders).
Any suggestions?

Has anyone experienced this. Im running Textmate 1.5 (v906) with rev
2643 checkout of bundles. Tidy used to work fine but I now get:
-e:5: undefined method `match' for #<String:0xc5dd0> (NameError)
when I use it. Anyone got any ideas?

Hi all,
Is there a way to select some text in TextMate with the mouse, then
drag it to another application? What I'm trying to do is grab some
text out of TextMate and create a note in Yojimbo by dragging it to a
folder in Yojimbo's Drop Dock. I'm trying not to copy/switch app/
create note/paste.
Is there any way of doing this? I hope I'm not missing something
obvious.

Good Morning :)
I put together and polished some commands Allan made in order to get
the TextMate Documentation under way. As I worked on a documentation
project at the same time, I used his scripts, bundled them and
adapted them a little to my needs. If you are curious as to what
happens behind the scenes… Here it goes.
This bundle is for compiling a Documentation project made of several
Markdown files to HTML. It generates a TOC, a print version with all
chapters on one page and HTML files for each chapter. You can use
references to easily link between your pages.
I appended the bundle “Markdown2Book” plus, as an example how to use
it, the first three chapters of the TextMate manual.
Have fun,
Soryu.
PS: For quick reference the Help file from the bundle (also available
from the bundle itself via the “Readme” command):
# Setup
You will need a TextMate Project (a Scratch Project will do) to make
this work.
## Structure
The following files & folders are needed:
* `pages`
This is where all your markdown files go. You need to make a new
file for each chapter. It should have one first level heading which
will be used for the name of the chapter (in the Table of Contents,
for the Navigational Links & in the HTML title).
The files in the `pages` directory are converted to HTML (using
Markdown and SmartyPants) with the _Generate_ Command. They have to
be in the right order, so they have to be named beginning with
numbers followed by a space or an underscore (as seen in the included
example). This prefix will be stripped by the Generate Script.
* `html`
The generated files will go here.
* `index.html`: Table of Contents from which you can navigate to
all chapter.
* `all_pages.html`: A single files with all chapters. This is
mainly for printing and it uses the `print.css` Stylesheet.
* `*.html`: Every chapter has it's own file.
Also this folder holds two links to the css and images folder.
When "deploying" your compiled book, just replace these by the actual
folders.
* `templates`
This folder contains three html templates. Adapt them to your
needs.
* `all.rhtml`: template for the `all_pages.html` file which
contains all your chapters.
* `chapter.html`: template for each chapter
* `toc.html`: template for the `index.html` file containing the
Table of Contents
* `css`
This folder contains the stylesheets (`stylesheet.css` and
`print.css`). Adapt those as you like. The default style resembles
the [TextMate Manual](http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/).
* `images`
This folder should hold all your images. When the book is
generated `height` and `width` HTML attributes are added to the
images. The source path could be changed, too, to make it absolute.
## References
You can use reference style links (`[link description][link id]`) in
your text. There is a command _Update References_ that will collect
them from all `.markdown` files in the `pages` folder and write them
to a file `markdown.references` in the project root. It notifies you
of missing or duplicate entries via a Tooltip. You can then edit this
file and insert the link targets within your text. The _Generate_
Script will add `id` attributes to your headings, so you can
reference them directly. Is converts some characters (`- \/_`) to
underscores and strips non-alphanumeric characters afterwards.
I wrote a command _Show References_ that brings up a dialog with all
the references from the `markdown.references` file and inserts a
reference snippet.
## Generation process
The _Generate_ Command is a Ruby Script, which does some
transformation, constructs the Table of Contents and runs all your
Markdown files through [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/
markdown/), [SmartyPants](http://daringfireball.net/projects/
smartypants/) (for good Typography) and the Image-Script.

Hi guys, i've been a textmate user since i developed a shopping cart
system for a non profit website that bought me a license because i
refused money. I absolutely love textmate.
Just about an hour ago though, i made a little change in a database
class i use on my own website, only edited one file and suddenly
strange things happen on a couple of pages where the class is used
(front page and news page) textmate remembers where i've put the
caret in a file, but now it shows that info on my website (without
being able to find the text in there anywhere)
I work on the site over an AFP connection, i've tried everything i
could think of to get rid of it to no avail. anyone have any idea
what's going on and/or how to get rid of that one line of awkward text?
the site is on http://www.theredhead.nl, the line of text that's
bothering me is:
&7{"com.macromates.caret" = "{column = 0; line = 0; }"; }
hope someone can help me here.
Kind regards,
Kris
Thanks for the tip! Always a pleasure to avoid applescript...
I actually tried that before and couldn't get it to work. The problem seems
to be that saving from the menubar (or from the keyboard shortcut) is not
recorded during the macro. Do macros only record automations (snippets,
commands, etc.) or do I have something setup wrong? I couldn't find this
documented anywhere.
I ended up getting around this by defining ANOTHER command that saves the
current file but then does nothing, then recording a macro where I execute
both actions. Seems to work great, except it doesn't seem to be saving new
files, so I have to just save it twice the first time. Not a problem for
me, personally.
Oh course, it's ugly to have two commands and a macro sitting around in a
bundle, when there really should be only one. Anyone else think it might be
useful to have a ''save after'' check box or something in the command
window?
Thanks again,
Jim
Hello,
I am new to this list, so this question may have been asked before.
Since TextMate 1.5 I keep getting a spinning beach ball for 20+
seconds so often that it makes using TextMate very cumbersome.
Are my documents too long (2000+ lines)? Are there too many files in
my projects? Am I using the wrong color scheme (iPlastic)? Is there a
problem with LaTeX (what I am using TextMate for)?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thx,
Wolter
Whenever I try to use the 'Convert Selection to Entities' command it
results in the following error.
env: ruby -KU: No such file or directory

Terminal reveals I'm running ruby 1.6.8
Thanks for any help.
Trying to make a set of Emacs-like bindings for TM, I discovered that
setMark: and others are defined at a low level in the operating system,
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/
ApplicationKit/ObjC_classic/Classes/NSResponder_index.html
Some keys I wanted to use with these, e.g. ^q and ^h, are defined
downstream, for examples in the bundles or in
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/Resources/KeyBindings.dict. I
got rid of all those bindings, I think, but I still am unable to use
the Mark commands in TM. I am able to use them in Mail: set a mark,
move, press the key bound to deleteToMark: and the block is cut, Yank
it back, etc. Am I missing some interfering bindings or does TM
somehow not respond to the xxxMark: commands?
Thanks,

I've managed to hose the binding for my keypad Enter key. It doesn't do
