(sorry if this pops up multiple times - gmail doesn't seem to be
working properly)
I've recently started using Textmate and the Latex bundle. I found
that I wanted to extend the functionality in various ways, including
by adding definitions to the Lanuage file to allow me to highlight
footnotes and emphasised text. Some of the code I wanted to add is:
{ name = 'meta.footnote.latex';
begin = '(\\(footnote|noteToSelf)\{)';
end = '(\})';
captures = { 1 = { name = 'keyword.footnote.latex'; }; };
patterns = ( { include = '$self'; } );
contentName = 'variable.parameter.footnote.latex';
},
{ name = 'meta.emph.latex';
begin = '(\\emph\{)';
end = '(\})';
captures = { 1 = { name = 'keyword.emph.latex'; }; };
patterns = ( { include = '$self'; } );
contentName = 'variable.parameter.emph.latex';
},
I've added that code to a copy of the Language definition. It seems
to work fine (there are probably errors, since I'm a newbie) but it
occurs to me that there may be a better way to do it. As it stands,
if the Latex bundle is updated in the next release, I'll still be
using the older language definition. Is there any way I could have
written my snippit to avoid that problem?
Best wishes,
Nicholas
Hi All,
Did I missed a step or something, but the first "child" in a
@media ... {...} never appears color-coded (See the attached
screenshot for an example)
Thanks,

Hm, that's an interesting idea, just match any command containing the
word cite as meta.cite.latex ..... I'll have to think about that a
bit though, and ask the other maintainers.
Do you have a list of all these commands?
Of course, adding support for every single latex package out there is
not really feasible...
Looking at http://www.jurabib.homelinux.org/jurabib/jb-com-ref.pdf,
there are not really that many citation options, and most of them are
already supported in the newest version of the bundle (in the
repository). What commands do you find missing? I think it is missing
author and title addons at the moment, but those can be easily added.
footcite support was added two days ago or so, along with the new
completion commands.

Hi Guys,
First time poster, been using TM for a while though.
I'm trying to write a command that will run, do it's thing, then save the
file. The trick is how to get it to save AFTER the command alters the
file. Is this possible?
Specifically, what I am trying to do is update a `Last Modified:` string
whenever I save a file. That's the easy part, I did it with some python
triggered by cmd-s. Now that the string has been altered, how do I save the
file? It seems possible with applescript, but I can't get it to work.
If anyone has any suggestions about this final step, that would be great. I
know there's something wrong with my applescript, it tends to behave
differently in osascript than in Script Editor, is this because of the
escaped quotes? Something to do with combining triple- and single-quotes?
I've searched everywhere, apple documentation, textmate wiki/mailing list,
and turned up nothing! It seems to me that having a "Save After" option for
Commands would be useful. What do you guys think? Maybe this has been
discussed already.
Thanks for your help,
Jim Bagrow
Here is the command:
Save: Current File
Command:
*************************************************************
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import re
import datetime
# get selected text from shell:
path = os.getenv('TM_FILEPATH')
f = open(path, 'r')
text = f.read()
f.close()
string = "Last Modified: "+datetime.date.isoformat( datetime.datetime.today()
)
p = re.compile('Last Modified: \d\d\d\d-\d\d-\d\d')
result = p.sub(string, text)
print result
# how can I save the file at this point, AFTER it's been modified?
# PS: I hate applescript!
cmd = """osascript -e \"
set thePath to do shell script \"echo $TM_FILEPATH\"
tell application \"TextMate\"
activate
save current document in thePath
end tell
\"
"""
os.popen(cmd)
*************************************************************
Input: Entire Document
Output: Replace Document
Activation: Key Equivalent -> "cmd-S"

good tip -- thanks. yes, with a combination like that i can probably
get close to what i was looking for, but i still think that it would
be a lot cleaner for TM to support this more directly.

right, which is why i was asking for a non-applescript API.
(i think what i'd *really* like is to have a lua interpreter embedded
in TM, but in the absence of that we should be able to do almost
everything with external programs...)
"All that stuff" is required for Rails to run, but you can remove it
from a TM project (which doesn't delete them from the finder) and not
have to deal with files you don't modify.

Thanks to Allen I've managed to add HTML export to my screenwriting
bundle. So now you can export your screenplays in proper Studio
Format! However, thanks to Safari's (and all other browsers) lack of
support for paged-media styles the resulting document does not print
ideally. That being said, it's a very nice result for outputting to
HTML. In fact, it's much better than Final Draft 7! (they don't
declare doctypes... bad final draft). It would be nice to see actual
support of CSS2 paged-media styles... one can only hope.
When exporting a PDF from Safari it adds header information and
footer stuff, as well as a nice .25in margin on every side. I'd like
to change that, if you know how let me know.
I've looked into using HTMLDoc and Prince to export the resulting
HTML document to a pdf by way of bypassing the build-in PDF services
but both of those cost money, something I'd like to avoid. If you
have any tips, let me know.
I've also added support for printing and non-printing comments, as
well as general code clean-up.
Aside from minor changes in regexp rules to account for people's
writing habits, I cannot foresee to many more changes in the bundle
(aside from a better PDF option). So, thanks to all of you who helped
and especially to Allen. You can now say that TextMate has a
(somewhat) full-featured Screenplay-writing bundle that imports
resulting documents *perfectly* into Final Draft. Objective
accomplished.

The Diff bundle command 'Selected Files in Project Drawer (HTML)'
references "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/diff.pl", but the actual file is
"$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/Diff.pl" (note case: d vs. D). If (like in my
case) TM is installed on a case sensitive file system, that command
will not work:

Safari's support for paged-media within CSS2 is limited.
Specifically, it supports both the "auto" and "always" values, but
not "avoid"; which is why I can't get the following rules to work:
@page { size: 8.5in 11in; margin: 1in 1in 1in 1.5in; }
dl, dd { page-break-inside: avoid; }
dt, h2 { page-break-after: avoid; }
h3 { page-break-before: avoid; }
h4 { page-break-after: avoid; }
I've tested these in Safari, Camino, and a Safari Nightly Build.
Hi,
maybe I can get some advice from experienced users. I tried to update
my Latex bundle by following the instructions in the TextMate
manual. svn is installed and I could get connected to macromates.
However, when I enter the following command
svn --username anon --password anon co \
http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle
I receive the error message
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:780: (apr_err=175002)
svn: REPORT request failed on '/svn/Bundles/!svn/vcc/default'
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:295: (apr_err=175002)
svn: REPORT of '/svn/Bundles/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request
(http://macromates.com)
I am lost. What could be going wrong ?

This is the feature I miss the most (when writing Rails code).
How it works :
1°/ select a directory, and
2°/ mark it as "exclude from 'find in project'"
context: in Rails, the log files and 3rd party code (EdgeRails, plugins,
javascript libs, docs ..) are all in your project tree
=> your code can be less than 10% of the total files/code present in
the project
===> most of the results entries are useless, because out of scope.

I noticed that the LaTeX bundle provides the same shortcut for two
different commands:
BibDesk Completion
Insert Label From Document
Both are mapped to ⌥⎋. Is this a bug or a feature?
Trevor
Hello
I have this word in completation list "split-path"
if I type "spli" and esc key it does work
if I type "split-" and esc it doesn't
what should I do?
also for color syntax, I'd like "value?" to be recognized
but this doesn't work:
{ name = 'rebol.words';
match = '\b(value\?)\b';
},
thank you!

hello I'm new to TextMate, Hat down to the creators/developers
I'm coming from bbedit..hem..hemm no comment..
I'm trying to build a bundle for the rebol language
and regex is new to me.
Please, help on this
"^""
^" is escape "
all between " and " is a string
this is my code
{ name = 'rebol.string';
begin = '"';
end = '"';
},
which obviously dosn't work for this case.
also any link to great oniguruma tutorial would be great
Thank you and have a great day!

i've written a few scripts to make editing of remote files easier.
then i noticed that TM supports the "external editor
protocol" (http://www.merzwaren.com/external_editor.html), which
sounds like it would make some of my hacks quite a bit cleaner, but
only if i was able to deal with applescript events. i haven't been
able to find tools to make a ruby script (or any other scripting
language) able to receive applescript events (yes, i know how to send
them, although that's still ugly), which means (as far as i can tell)
that i'd need to start mucking with obj-C...
but then it occurred to me that it ought to be easy for TM to support
a more scripter-friendly version of the same protocol, e.g.
mate --notify <path> <file>
would associate the script at <path> with the opened file, so that TM
would make event callbacks, e.g.
<path> saved <file>
<path> closed <file>
<path> reopen <file>
given that you've already got the events-based version of the
protocol implemented, it sounds like this should be pretty
straightforward, and it sure would make my life easier...
(a more general request: please don't make useful TM functionality
only available through applescript. there are a lot of scripting
languages for OS X, and for all but one of them applescript events
are a PITA. anything that can be done by sending applescript events
should also be accessible via mate! thanks.)
This was announced a couple of weeks ago on the Rails mailing list,
but I thought it might be interesting to others in the textmate area
whether for Rails development or for learning purposes.
The textmate_backtracer plugin (download here) for Ruby on Rails lets
you easily jump from your web browser to textmate when a backtrace is
given. Using the txmt:// protocol, the plugin intercepts the
backtrace and inserts the file name and line numbers in a way
textmate understands so that you can get to the source of the problem
(no pun intended) in a single click.

Hi everyone,
I use a Mac part-time, and switching between Mac and Windows key
bindings is driving me nuts. I found the article "Key bindings for
switchers" and happily followed along with the instructions. However,
having set up my ~/Library/KeyBindings/DeaultKeyBinding.dict file
exactly as in the article, the new bindings work fine in Mail and
TextEdit but not in TextMate. I have no idea why that would happen -
any ideas?
Here's the contents of my DefaultKeyBinding.dict (copied directly
from the article) for reference:
{
/* home */
"\UF729" = "moveToBeginningOfLine:";
"$\UF729" = "moveToBeginningOfLineAndModifySelection:";
/* end */
"\UF72B" = "moveToEndOfLine:";
"$\UF72B" = "moveToEndOfLineAndModifySelection:";
/* page up/down */
"\UF72C" = "pageUp:";
"\UF72D" = "pageDown:";
}
Thanks in advance,

I'd be glad to host the screencast, if bandwidth becomes a problem,
I'll let you know. And yes, I know exactly zero about programming

Okay, based on what you posted here before, I added a few things that
were missing and synced these with the language def.
#!/usr/bin/perl -p
s/&/&/g; #ampersands
s/</</g; #reserved for HTML
s/>/&lgt;/g; #reserved for HTML - maybe this is unnecessary?
s/^EXT\..*$/<h2>$&<\/h2>/; #scene heading
s/^INT\..*$/<h2>$&<\/h2>/; #scene heading
s/^I\/E\..*$/<h2>$&<\/h2>/; #scene heading
s/^[A-Z].*\-\s[A-Z].*/<h2>$&<\/h2>/; #arbitrary scene heading ending
with a time
s/^[A-Z].*\-\s*$/<h2>$&<\/h2>/; #arbitrary scene heading NOT ending
with a time
s/^\w.*$/<p>$&<\/p>/; #paragraph
s/\/\/(.*)\/\//<!-- $1 -->/g; #comments
s/\*(.*)\*/<em>$1<\/em>/; #italics
s/^(\t{4})([^\t].*)$/<dl>$1<dt>$2<\/dt>/; #characters
s/^(\t{3})([^\t].*)$/$1<dd class="parenthetical"> $2 <\/dd>/;
#parenthetical
s/^(\t{2})([^\t].*)$/$1<dd>$2<\/dd><\/dl>/; #dialogue
s/^(\t{10})([^\t].*:)$/$1<h3>$2<\/h3>/; #transition (right)
s/^[A-Z].*:\s*/<h4>$&<\/h4>/; # transition (left)
The only one that's not working properly is the last one. It's
baffling to be because it's the same regexp as in the language.

I have no programming skills other that those I've already
demonstrated. Zip
There are a few steps left in the process that need to be addressed.
Next the HTML marked-up text (as generated by the above script) needs
to be inserted into an actual HTML document with doctype
declarations, CSS etc. And somehow (again, I have no idea how) it
needs to be transfered to a PDF authoring environment (htmldoc or
whatever).
Lastly, thank all of you. It's great to give something to a community
and get so much back.
Hi,
I was trying to find an XML editor for large XML files. I tried to
open a 108 MB (genome data in XML) file in TextMate but it failed.
BBedit opens te file ok. Is there an upper bound to the amount of
data you can edit?

PROBLEM:
The feature of all mac apps that I use the most is search.
Specifically find selection & find again. I use that feature to step
through every instance of that selection throughout my code. One
feature that I would love to see is a back button for selections.
Every time you do a search or scroll through your document & select
something, to get back to the last thing you were working on you have
to have set a bookmark & remember which bookmark you were last
looking at, or you have to manually find that place in your code again.
I work on other peoples old janky ASP 'classic' and quickly slapped
together ASP.NET code on a deadline. Anything to help me make quick
work of navigating through the (massive mountain of fetid spaghetti)
code the better.
SOLUTION:
If there was a way for the program to note every time you move the
selection more than 'a little bit' & log that information
sequentially, all you'd have to do to get back to what you were last
looking at would be to hit the back button. bam bam... done, no
thinking.
I know the system is extremely extensible, i'm sure there is some way
for me to 'roll my own' system for doing something similar.
(1) I'd need a command to get the current input location row & column
(2) log that information somewhere
(3) a command to get the last input location from 'wherever' and then
(4) a command to set the input location to 'that location'
??? I think i could figure all this out with applescript and bbedit,
but i'm still rather green when it comes to hard-core UNIX hacking.
Anyone have any suggestions? ??
IDEA: Maybe a quickie version of it would be to undo the last edit,
which would take me back to the last place I was, but then redo my
last action without moving the input location so I don't lost any
work. hmm...
Maybe there's another solution to my problems that i haven't
considered. What does everyone else do?
I have been using TM (1.5 (906)) off and on for a couple of days now
and I noticed this evening that typing had become glacially slow. I
ran the Activity Monitor and noticed that as I type, cocoAspell
(2.0.2) was using about 70% of the processor on a 1.5 GHz PowerBook
G4. I turned off "Check Spelling As You Type" and the problem went
away. I haven't noticed this problem in any other app for which I am
checking spelling as I type. Is this a known issue and/or is there
some way for me to fix it? This is under Mac OS X 10.4.4.
Thank you,
-- Gary

Since I've switched to a Mac and started using TextMate I've wanted
to bind the keypad enter key to the TextMate "Next File Tab"
command.
Is this possible with OS/X? The keyboard shortcuts preference
panel doesn't distinguish the "main" return key from the keypad
enter key.
Stu
Hi,
Is there a way to pervent TextMate from using the Option key
to toggle the selection type?
It's conflicting with another key binding I have for the Option
key :(
This is a deal breaker for me and TextMate is the best editor
I have seen on OSX so far.
Thx

Okay, I guess most people had no idea what I was doing when I posted
my screenwriting bundle because I didn't describe what the bundle
does and how it does it. My mistake.
I've posted a new screencast that goes into much more detail
regarding what I the bundle to be able to do. Grab it here: http://
www.ollieman.net/files/screencast2.mp4
The ultimate goal is to end up with a PDF which contains text that
conforms to the Studio Format. The Studio Format is a industry-
standard layout which all professional screenwriters work in and is
the very purpose of screenwriting software. Fortunately for us, the
format is very strict as it is modeled after what a typewriter is
capable of.
You can find more information on the Studio Format and an example of
it at http://www.ollieman.net/files/bundles/

In another screencast, I intro the bundle and what it's designed to
do from a writer's perspective. Grab it here: http://www.ollieman.net/

Hi,
I have some small suggestions to the HTML, CSS and Markdown Bundle.
# HTML
## Refresh Running Browser(s)
Change Scope to `text.html, source.css` so the Browser can be
refreshed when editing the CSS file.
## Minor syntax stuff
php-source = { patterns = (
{ name = 'comment.line.number-sign.ruby';
match = '#.*?(?=\?>)';
},
{ name = 'comment.line.double-slash.ruby';
match = '//.*?(?=\?>)';
},
{ include = 'source.php'; },
);
};
Ruby mixed with php?
# Experimental/CSS
What about those Experimental Bundles? I use the CSS syntax from
there and it would be nicer if it was in the CSS bundle. Because
calling the Gear (Bundle Stuff) menu (Control-Escape) puts you there
and not in the CSS bundle. The experimental CSS syntax has been
around for quite some time and I wonder if it still is work in
progress? It seems to be better than the official CSS Syntax anyway.
# Markdown
## Suggestion: Markdown with [SmartyPants](http://daringfireball.net/
projects/smartypants/)
“Preview”/“Preview in Browser” or “Convert Document/Seletion to HTML”
Pipe it through `Smartypants.pl` (must be added to the repos.) to
have nicer HTML.
There should not be any problems so one could add it to the default
commands instead of creating an additional variant with SmartyPants.
I wonder why John Gruber did not combine them in the first place.
# Conclusion
That's it for now.
Have a nice day,
Soryu.
PS: Why do I not simply make those changes for myself? I did but then
I won't be able to use better bundle items from the repository or
even a new TextMate release because my changed override them. I know
Allan has something on the todo to manage this but it's not short term.
Hi
I sometimes have to work on large data files. The HITRAN 2004
spectroscopic database, is such an example (http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/hitran//). According to the terminal command wc
(wordcount), the file that I want to open contains 280 983 978
characters in 1 734 469 lines. Opening with TextWrangler takes about
20 s.After that time I can move around and do some copy and paste
etc. TextMate, however, takes about 10 s on my 1.5 GHz G4 PB (2 GB
Ram), then it unexpectedly quits without actually displaying the
file. Can/Shouldn't I expect TextMate to work with files this large ?
There appears to be a problem with memory allocation.
Here is what the console log says.

I'm trying to update/extend the ActionScript bundle and replace the
commands that output using the deprecated "Show in Seprate Window".
To do this I'm trying to store the output of the compiler then,
depending on success parse the output message differently.
Trouble is the following leaves me with nothing to work with:
complieResult=$( mtasc -cp "$TM_MX_CLASSES" -cp "$TM_CLASS_PATH" -cp
"$TM_CLASS_PATH/FP8" -cp "$PROJECT_DIR/src" -cp "$PROJECT_DIR/
classes" -version $flashVersion -trace $traceOption -frame 10 -mx -
out "$TM_SWF_OUTPUT" -swf "$TM_SWF_INPUT" "Main.as" )
echo "COMPILE RESULT $complieResult";
whereas
FILELIST=$( ls $HOME )
echo "FILELIST $FILELIST";
works as expected.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

In BBEdit, TeXShop, Xcode, and I expect several other editors, one
can double-click one half of a pair of delimiters (e.g., braces,
brackets, or parentheses), the editor will find its other half, and
then it will select the delimiters and all the text in between. I
noticed you can't do this in TextMate. Looking through the help, I
noticed that you can do this by placing the cursor in the right place
and typing cmd-shft-b, but it is much easier to double-click to get
the same result. This has also been requested in the wiki, but I
couldn't find a response -- is something like this planned? If not,
consider this another request for this feature. :-)
Thank you,

I can't seem to find a way to tell TextMate that having comments after
the closing brace is okay.
I've tried variations on:
foldingStopMarker = '\*\*/|^\s*\}|^\s*\}.*';
to no avail. TextMate won't un-indent the brace.
Any help appreciated.

Help everyone. If you can't do that, then at least be nice.
If I try using the "Generic word completion" of the Latex bundle, the error
/bin/bash: line 1: /Macros/LaTeXcomplete.pl: No such file or directory
is inserted into the text of my document.
I tried looking at the function in the Latex Bundle, but it seems to
be just a wondow with "No Macro Editor available" at the top and two
ExecuteCommandWithOptions {
lines.
I'm using the latest build 906.
Could anyone explain what is wrong?
Best wishes,
Nicholas
I hope you will forgive the newbie question, but I've searched the
documentation for an answer and can't see one.
I'm trying to use the build comand of the latex bundle with latexmk.pl
I've set my environment variables to:
TM_LATEX_COMPILER = [Path to latexmk] (though I still see "success"
for building even if this path is wrong)
TM_LATEX_VIEWER = preview
Yet the pdf is not generated. This could be because latexmk requires
the argument -pdf to produce a pdf, but I don't know how to specify
that, but the build process is so short, I'm not sure that latexmk is
being called at all.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Best wishes,
Nicholas
I'm creating a bundle for screenwriting and I need help finishing it.

You must be dreading your inbox ;-)
I just spent about 2 hours "customizing" the LaTeX bundle to include
some of the "snippets" and templates that I used to use in TeXShop's
editor. After quitting and restarting TextMate, I noticed that at
least two of my templates have disappeared, the order of my snippets
and templates has changed, and the modifications I made to the
"Filter List..." in the Bundle Editor have all been reset, that is,
all the bundles that were unchecked in the filter have been checked
again and now show in the editor. Is this a bug or something that I
am doing wrong?
Thank you,

I know that TextExtras is not supported in TextMate (a Google search
returned a few places that indicate this), and with the exception of
one feature, that hasn't been an issue for me. One thing that I
really do miss from TextExtras though is the "indent wrapped lines"
setting. Is this something that is on the list of things to be
implemented in TextMate?
Regards,
-- Gary L. Gray
P.S. I am new to TextMate and this list -- if this is not the
appropriate place to post queries such as these, please let me know.
I am doing a bit of Scheme-programming and have spent a few hours
trying to make TM understand Scheme syntax in a feasible way. Syntax
coloring is no problem since I can do recursive patterns (via
includes). However, I cannot find a solution to indentation. What I
have is a rule that creates a new scope called "expression.scheme"
for each nested expression, for example:
(if (= a b)
(+ c 1)
(+ d 2))
where 'c' (as well as 'a', 'b' and 'd') has the scope "source.scheme
expression.scheme expression.scheme".
So, this is my suggestion:
How about making the pattern matching engine scope-aware, so that I
can match beginning and end of scope? I believe having that would
make it a breeze to get indentation to work okay with Scheme, just
make a preference tied to scope "expression.scheme" and tell it to
increase indentation at the beginning ot the scope and decrease it at
the end. Each nested scope would then automatically add an
indentation-level, which is what is needed to indent right. (And
while I'm at it, to be able to set folding at the beginning and end
of scopes would also be awesome... :))
I don't think it is possible to do proper indentation for Scheme
without some new feature, but I could be wrong. Anyone have an
alternate solution? Please tell me.
Anyway, thanks for an outstanding product!

whoha!
I just wanted to do some xml-wrangling with TM and opened my usual
accounting file which contains ca. 6000 lines of xml.
I work with it all the time and never experienced any problems.
except for right now, when i did a search and replace with regular
expressions, just simply remoing all line-breaks, ie. replacing '\n'
with nothing.
TM has been maxing out the CPU for ten minutes now (Dual 1GHz G4) and
doesn't let me do anything. I've got ca 15 projects open and am
praying that they're saved.
How can this be avoided in the future? is TM really only usable for
small files such as XHTML templates or code? that'd be a real shame...
can anybody shed any light on this or give some advice, what other
product to use for the 'heavy lifting stuff'?
best regards,

Hello,
I've tried searching the list, but I didn't find anything about
this. I've had this problem for a long time now and I figured it
would get fixed, but maybe I'm the only one having the problem.
When I'm editing HTML/PHP pages and I switch to my web browser,
Safari, to refresh and view my changes, then when I switch back to
TextMate I lose my place in the text area. It acts like it reloads
the file when I switch back to it. The carrot moves to the beginning
of the line, and most of the time the whole text area will scroll
down one line. Usually when this happens there is a 2-5 second lag
before I'm able to start typing.
It's very annoying. Is anyone else having this issue?
Hi all,
Been lurking for a bit and have finally come upon a situation where i
need some of TM's more advanced features, if anyone can offer some
pointers on the following - it would be greatly appreciated.
I need to:
surround a selection with some additional text ie 1,2 becomes [1,2]
after selecting the 1,2
on the line with the carat, trim any excess spaces from the end of the line
Any pointers appreciated,
Nik
Hi,
Just wondering what do you get when you buy a textmate licence, in
terms of upgrades.
Are you entitled to all the point releases, e.g. 1.4 -> 1.5 but not
major release like 1.5 -> 2.0.
Also will textmate work with the new Intel Macs?
Thanks,
Andy
Folks;
Looking at the templates the Python folks have in TextMate, I think
Ruby should have similar items in place.
Is anyone already working on this, or should I endeavor to add it?

Hey all,
i'm new to TextMate and i wonder if it's possible to change the
default ruby used when doing :
Automation > Run Command > Ruby > Run script
because i've severall rubys installed the one given by "which" being :
/opt/local/bin/ruby
but TextMate uses the latest :
/usr/local/bin/ruby
(notice my PATH is setup such a way to get the wanted "/opt/local/bin/
ruby")
then, how to setup TextMate in order to get "/opt/local/bin/ruby"
otherwise my scripts aren't working because of dependencies.

Hi all,
jEdit has a plug-in for its HTML/XML mode that automatically closes
the current markup block. For instance, if you have this:
<html>
<body>
<h1>
And then you hit the hotkey, "</h1>" will be inserted automatically.
I thought I remembered reading something in the TextMate manual about
an identical feature, but I can't find it now. I know that there's an
"Insert Open/Close Tag (with Current Word)" command, but that's not
quite the same.
Thanks,

Hi,
I found a bug while going through Why's (Poignant) Guide to Ruby.
Whenever you type the following string of characters in Ruby mode:
"#<#{}#{
if you follow up with a '}' (just the right bracket), you end up with
}"}#}<}#}{}}#}{
If you do it in a piece of text, it garbles up your entire file,
adding a right bracket after every single character, making your file
look like this:
}#} }T}h}e} }g}u}t}s} }o}f} }l}i}f}e} }f}o}r}c}e} }w}i}t}h}i}n} }D}w}
e}m}t}h}y}'}s} }A}r}r}a}y}
}c}l}a}s}s} }C}r}e}a}t}u}r}e}
} } }
} } }#} }G}e}t} }a} }m}e}t}a}c}l}a}s}s} }f}o}r} }t}h}i}s} }c}l}a}s}s}
} } }d}e}f} }s}e}l}f}.}m}e}t}a}c}l}a}s}s};} }c}l}a}s}s} }<}<} }s}e}l}

This bug appears both in r847 and the latest r906.

Salvete,
in 906, I observe the following behaviour:
- Open the Ruby language definition in the bundle editor (probably works
with others as well)
- Search for “indent”.
- Close search window
- Go to the beginning of the file
- Search for “def”
--> TextMate is still searching for “indent”.

Hi!
I develop my Rails pages with two monitors.
On the left Monitor, I have TextMate open, on the right monitor, I
have Safari with the current controller/action I'm editing open.
Instead of always manually:
1) Saving document in TextMate
2) Focusing Safari
3) Refreshing Safari
4) Put focus back on TextMate
I wrote the following Script in the Bundle Editor:
osascript -e "
tell application \"System Events\"
key down command
keystroke \"s\"
key up command
end tell
tell application \"Safari\"
activate
end tell
tell application \"System Events\"
key down command
keystroke \"r\"
key up command
end tell
tell application \"TextMate\"
activate
end tell
"
However, the last three lines make TextMate freeze, and Safari
doesn't even Refresh. As soon as I remove those three lines,
everything works (except of course, refocusing TextMate).
Any ideas?
Is there any support for TextMate? I bought TextMate a couple of
months ago.
Thanks a bunch!

Hi,
Since Tiger it is possible in Cocoa apps such as TextEdit to create
non-contiguous selections by holding command pressed. For example
command + double click can be used multiple times to select a few
words, or command + tripple click to select some lines. Seems like a
handy feature, would be neat to get that onto the ToDo list.

Hi,
I'd like TextMate to provide better visual feedback when typing
characters that require multiple keystrokes. When you type Alt + e in
Mail.app, it displays ´ with yellow background, then you type e and
see the resulting é. In TextMate you see only the result. Not a big
deal for accented characters, but pain for some special keyboards -
like Russian phonetic that i use, where a lot of frequently used
letters are created by typing two, and sometimes three characters :)

Rather than using just the *current* file as the source for
completions, I'd like to expand that a bit and make TextMate search
all currently open files for word completions.
I've searched around a bit, and I am aware of the standard
completions / completionCommand usage. However, it seems that there
is no way of getting the list of currently open documents in to the
shell. Is that the case?
TM_SELECTED_FILES appears to be pretty close, but it only works on
"selected" files within the project. Is the list of shell variables
in the manual a comprehensive list? I'm hoping there's a secret
something that I've missed :)

Hello everybody,
I have been trying Textmate for a couple of days now and am quite
stunned -- it really has improved greatly compared to an older
version I had tried before.
It seems to have most of the key features I am missing in TeXShop for
writing my Ph.D. dissertation (like tabs and code folding), so I am
seriously considering switching.
Let me ask one question about using it for LaTeX however:
I would prefer to keep TeXShop to control the LaTeX processing rather
than Textmate's own processing since I have some .engine file (i.e.
scripts that are started form within TeXShop) I would like to keep to
perform some specific tasks.
Of course I can simply set TeXShop to "external editor", open my
main .tex file there and process it, but this is not so nice because
of two reasons:
- You have to switch applications. Not a big deal, but pressing a
shortcut from within Textmate was nicer.
- Syncing does not work. I suppose TeXShop would have to provide a
feature to call an external editor and jump to a defined line, just
like in TeXniscope (where it works fine).
Is there any chance that there will be a solution in the feature that
would allow Textmate so tell TeXShop to begin the TeX processing
(with a given .engine used), and that would allow syncing?
Has there been a feature request for TeXShop already to implement the
needed features?
Or am I simply missing something?
Thanks in advance,
best
Matthias

Hi,
there is a discussion about LaTeX editors going on in the BibDesk
users list (with some enthusiastic recommendations for TextMate ...).
Let me forward one mail that could be interesting here as well.
To sum it up:
- Someone is missing code collapsing for \footnote{} commands (very
good idea if you ask me ... I've seen that it is already in the Wiki
as a feature request.)
- Adam Maxwell offers a completion controller that could improve the
interaction between BibDesk and TextMate.
Best,
Matthias

I was looking at some C source with TextMate and it seems the C
regexp for functions is broken when there is a new line in the middle
of the argument list. What I mean is that if your functions are
defined like this:
static int
AliasCreate(
Tcl_Interp *interp, /* Interp for error reporting. */
Tcl_Interp *slaveInterp, /* Interp where alias cmd will live
or from
* which alias will be deleted. */
Tcl_Interp *masterInterp, /* Interp in which target command
will be
* invoked. */
Tcl_Obj *namePtr, /* Name of alias cmd. */
Tcl_Obj *targetNamePtr, /* Name of target cmd. */
int objc, /* Additional arguments to store */
Tcl_Obj *CONST objv[]) /* with alias. */
{
Then TextMate will not see them as functions. I tried fixing the
regexp, which is
{ name = 'declaration.function.c';
begin = '(?x)
(?: ^ # begin-of-line
| (?: (?<!else|new) (?<=\w)\s+ # or word + space before
name
| (?<!&&) (?<=[*&>])\s* # or type modifier before
name
)
)
([A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_:]+) # actual name
\s*\( (?=[^)]*\) # match "(" and use look-
ahead for ")"
(\s+const)?\s* # optional const modifier
(\{|\n)) # start bracket or end-of-
line
';
end = '\)';
beginCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'entity.name.function.c'; }; };
patterns = ( { include = '$base'; } );
},
But so far, I've been unable to make it ignore new lines in the
argument list.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
-Oscar

Are there any plans for a Universal Binary for Textmate?
Hi Allan,
Quite a while ago there was the question how to search a document for
information, then come back to the spot and continue editing.
You mentioned the technique to scroll around, read what you need,
then press Command-J (Jump to Selection). Too bad that Find or Copy/
Paste move the selection.
How about a command "Jump to Last Edit" and bind it to Cmd-Shift-J?
Is this possible to have as a macro, or as a TextEdit extension?
One could design it with a few parameters
- How many edit positions to memorize? 5 sounds good to me.
(to cycle through them, recent to older)
- How far apart edit positions should be to be different?
10 lines, less than half a screen, sounds good to me here.
So if change happens "near" another edit position, the position
moves to the cursor spot.
- Jump across files? I don't think so.
Edit positions should be part of the Undo queue.
I'm not trying to interfere with future expansions or better ideas
like stacks of tags, except that simplest often works best.
BTW I'm an raving fan of two windows of the same file side-by-side,
because I copy a lot (and I forget a lot). For Projects this is easy
achieved, has just a few refresh hickups when I edit a point above,
then switch to the other window. I see twice the amount of stuff, so
split windows wound't cut it.
For single file edits, like in a Fugu session, it is utterly
impossible to open a second window. Then I resort to throwing chunks
in a scratch pad, and jumping around in the same file. Hence the
topic. ;-)

Peter

Hello!
(I'm new to the list and to TextMate. Let me know if this has
already been covered.)
Version 1.5 (906) --
Problem: Web Preview does not reflect changes made in a CSS file to
which an open, previewed HTML documents refers.
Steps:
Open separately a HTML file and then a CSS file that's used by that
document. Evoke Web Preview on the html document. Switch to the CSS
document and change something that will effect the visual
presentation of the html document.
Pause, waiting for something to happen. ... Nothing Happens. Web
Preview does not change;
Save the CSS document. ... Web Preview does not change;
Switch to the HTML document and make a small change ... the change to
the html is immediately available, but the change to the CSS file
does not appear;
Close the Web Preview window, save the html file, reopen Web
Preview ... The change to the CSS file remains invisible to Web Preview;
Open the Drawer on the Web Preview window and press the "Refresh Now"
button ... No Change -- modification to the CSS file still is not
reflected;
QUIT TextMate, reopen the two files in question and apply Web Preview
to the HTML document.
--> NOW, the changes in the CSS document are properly reflected.
Clearly, Something Is Wrong Here.
It is as if Web Preview has CACHED the CSS file and is using the
cached version, rather than the current version, when it parses (or
whatever) the HTML file for preview.
The current behavior substantially reduces the value of Web Preview.
I hope we can get a fix soon. After the skiing trip of course! ;)
Related to this, I'd really like a "persistent" Web Preview when
using a Project. Consider the simplest example: one CSS file and
one HTML file open in a project. I select the HTML file and choose
Web Preview. I switch to the CSS file to make some edits and ...
WHAT! the Web Preview window disappears.
Of course, what I need is for the Web Preview of the HTML file to
STAY OPEN open while I edit the CSS file. And for it to reflect
changes to the appearance of the HTML file as I make changes in the
CSS file. I imagine that this situation may apply to editing other
sorts of "include" files (PHP?). When I make changes to ANY TYPE of
file to which an open HTML file refers, a Web Preview of that HTML
file should be updated, AND include the changes to the included files.
Thanks,

Hello,
the "copy condensed sql to clipboard" function removes newlines from
string literals as well, effectively changing the semantics of the
query. It would be nice if it replaced them with the correct escape-
sequences, or even left them in...
e.g. if you copy "SELECT 'line 1
line 2' " to you clipboard, you get "SELECT 'line 1 line 2'", that
actually does something else... Especially nasty with INSERT/UPDATE
queries etc.

When opening a folder in TextMate, sometimes the "file browser" thingy opens
on the right and sometimes it opens on the left.
Does anyone know how to make it always open on the left?
Thanks,

Hi,
there seems to be an error in the very first rule of the SQL Syntax
in the svn repository.
it starts:
{ name = 'declaration.create.sql';
match = '(?i:^\s*(create)\s+(aggregate|conversion|database|domain|
function|group|(unique\s+)?index|language|operator class|operator|
rule|schema|sequence|table|tablespace|trigger|type|user|view)\s+)
([''"`])?(\w+)';
but should have an additional
([''"`])?
at the end.
Because as it is now, the closing ` (e.g.) starts a string after the
frist CREATE TABLE for me and that makes syntax highlighting useles
for the rest of the file.

Hi all!
When documenting old code, I find myself trying to stick to ~80
columns, but plenty (well some) of my actual code lines is longer
than that. So what I'd like is to have the right-margin displayed at
say 78 chars, but soft wrap on the current window size.
Is this already possible? If not, is this useful in general?
Thanks,
Daniel.
If you're still using Terminal, you will find iTerm is an excellent
replacement.
It has tabs for multiple terminals, shortcuts for SSHelling to other
hosts, etc.

Help everyone. If you can't do that, then at least be nice.
I've been playing with Textmate's latex capabilities and I am impressed.
But I am unable to get any graphics. Here is an example (TMExample):
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{ps4pdf}
\PSforPDF{
\usepackage{pdftricks}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{pst-plot}
\usepackage{pstricks-add}
}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\PSforPDF {%
\begin{pspicture}(-5,-5)(5,5)
\psaxes[linecolor=blue,tickstyle=top]%
{<->}%
(0,0)(-5,-5)(5,5)
\end{pspicture}
}
\end{document}
Out of this I get a rectangle in the viewer saying:
Can’t show picture #1 because TMExample-pics.pdf not found. Create it
from TMExample.dvi using dvips and ps2pdf!
I am not sure what to do with this.
Hi List,
is there a shortcut to make tm close the current tag? On BBedit you
could find it under: Markup --> Close Current Tag. And it was pretty
useful.

I believe the architecture information was added in 10.4.3 which was
the release after the announcement of the Intel switch.

As much as I love textmate the one area were it has continuously fell
short for me is in the web preview pane. I want it to keep the file
up that I last used when I go to a css file and display the changes
however it will does not work this way.
I found that I needed to check some css syntax today so I fired up my
second favorite editor CSS Edit and once again found the exact
solution I which textmate would introduce.
Is there anyway I could make a key command that would fire off a
message to CSS Edit to update it preview, similar to how I can make
Safari refresh? (CSS Edit has command-R assigned to refresh it's
preview)
Thanks,

I just found 1.5 recently and I am very impressed -- it is excellent and
shows some very nice enhancements over the previous release 1.1.
I still hope to see it undo typing all at once (rather than a character
at a time) before switching, but this is by far the most promising
replacement for Pepper that I've seen.

As a new user of TextMate, the only thing that has disappointed me is
the incredible slowness of many bundle commands. For instance, if I
hit ^⇧D to duplicate the current selection, TextMate beachballs
(hangs) for about 15 seconds. This is quite surprising because my
machine is fast enough (1.33GHz G4 with 1.2GB RAM) and my files are
small (< 200 lines).
If I run top while TextMate is beachballing, I notice that bash is
consuming all available CPU cycles. Could there be something wrong
with my bash configuration? (I realize that TextMate is probably just
running some UNIX commands on top of bash to do the bundle command,
but still... 15 seconds of 100% CPU activity just to duplicate a
selected line? That can't be right.) Does everyone suffer through
this, or only me?
Trevor
P.S. I searched the list archives for this problem, but all I could
find were slowness issues related to remote file systems. All the
files I'm working with in TextMate are local.
Dear Textmates,
I am currently evaluating Textmate as a substitute for Emacs. My
first impression is really good (especially due to the excellent
documentation), but now I have encountered a problem that I cannot
resolve by myself. I hope you can help me with it.
I mostly work on LaTeX documents. With AucTeX, pressing Meta-q
(Reformat) when on line 2 of the following block of text would
reformat lines 2 and 3:
\begin{description}
\item[Projectivity:] A word and its transitive dependents must form a
continuous region of the full sentence.
\item[Planarity:] Dependency edges must not cross when drawn above the
words of the sentence.
\end{description}
The corresponding action in Textmate (Control-Q) produces this:
\begin{description} \item[Projectivity:] A word and its transitive
dependents must form a continuous region of the full sentence.
\item[Planarity:] Dependency edges must not cross when drawn above the
words of the sentence. \end{description}
I wonder if there is any way to tell Textmate that in LaTeX mode, a
paragraph should only stretch from the beginning of an \item to the
beginning of the next \item (or the \end{...} token), rather than
between empty lines? (This is what AucTeX does in the Emacs setting.)
Any help is appreciated.
Best,
Marco
Image Map Tool:
This is probably the feature from Homesite that I miss the most with my
transition to OS X for my work computer.
TM has done a great job of easing the pain in most other regards, but I
still find myself having to create at least one or two new image maps
every week. Most of the guys I work with are happy firing up ImageReady
to create them, but I consider this ridiculous. It's overkill to open a
(bloated) program, which I use for no other purpose, just to create an
image map.
Having used BBEdit prior to TM, I know that it also lacks an image map
tool. So this would be yet another area in which TM could beat BBEdit.

Salvete,
in a new language definition (MuPAD), I have
foldingStartMarker =
'\b(proc|domain|case|if|%if|for|while|repeat|axiom|category)\b';
foldingStopMarker =
'\b(end|end_proc|end_domain|end_case|end_if|end_for|end_while|end_repeat|end_axiom|end_category)\b';
Now, this works as expected, but I get folding markers whenever I type
the word “for” in a comment. Should I switch comment contents
explicitly to text scope or what is the recommended way of dealing with
keywords appearing in comments?
As an aside, another question on folding: MuPAD allows code of the
following structure (and that is actually quite common):
if foo then
dosomething()
elif bar then
dosome();
thingelse();
else
noidea();
end;
case x
of 1 do
...;
break;
of 2 do
...;
break;
otherwise
...
end;
What I would like to have is the ability to fold away the indented parts
above, i.e., everything fom an if or elif to the next elif, else, end,
or end_if, whatever comes first, from else to end/end_if, from an of
inside case to the next of, otherwisem end_case, or end and so on. But
it seems I can't have begin and end of two folding regions on the same
line, or can I?
regards,
Christopher
My Haskell bundle seems to have disappeared from the languages menu
and bundle editor. The bundle is in my /Library/Application Support/
TextMate/Bundles/ directory, but it doesn't show up in the TextMate
menus. If I save a file as .hs or .lhs, the mode is activated
correctly, so I know the bundle is getting loaded. Any ideas?

If you're still using TextMate, you will find emacs is an excellent
replacement.
It has all kinds of stuff and can even cook your coffee (with a

Is there a way to use vi cursor key bindings in Textmate?

Sorry for the post to everyone, but I know there are at least a
couple of mathematicians in the crowd, and I thought that we could
arrange a meeting with any of you attending the San Antonio Joint AMS-
MAA meetings. I'll be there from Thursday afternoon to Sunday, and
will spend my time mostly being interviewed, but I'm sure we can find
some time to meet.

I've searched diligently but can't find out, is there a way to display
all or part of the Project's Path on the main window? I use Subversion,
and have working directories like:
~/src
pcb-gcode/
rb3.0/
rb3.1/
trunk/
They all look the same when I'm in TM, so an elided path, such as used
elsewhere, would be great!
Thanks,
JJ

Help everyone. If you can't do that, then at least be nice.
Hi, folks,
I must have missed a preference somewhere. Is there a way to tell
TextMate to *not* open the previous document when I start up? I'm
perfectly happy with a new blank document, and I'd rather not have to
close the last document I worked on and open a new one every time I open
TextMate...
TIA,
Mike

I had started a mediawiki bundle, which has not gone much further
than copying from the markdown bundle, but at least one person asked
me to make it available.
Since I am not really very proud of it as it stands, and since I am
not planning to work on it much in the near future, I won't add it to
the repository yet, but if you want to download it and use/improve
it, point your browser here:

Hello
i need to use this script for latex:
> #!/bin/sh
> location=$(dirname "$1")
> basefname="${location}/`basename "$1" .tex`"
> # process the figures
> latex --shell-escape "$1"
> dvips -Ppdf -o "${basefname}-pics.ps" "${basefname}.dvi"
> ps2pdf13 "${basefname}-pics.ps" "${basefname}-pics.pdf"
> /bin/rm "${basefname}-pics.ps" "${basefname}.dvi"
> #process the file (once)
> pdflatex --shell-escape "$1"
>
but i don't know how to make this.
Perhaos i need to modify the script in the command Typset & View :
run_tex () {
if [ "$TEX" != latexmk.pl ]
then "$TEX" ${TM_LATEX_OPTIONS:= --shell-escape -
interaction=nonstopmode -file-line-error-style} "$1"
else "$TEX" -f -r "${TM_BUNDLE_PATH}/latexmkrc" "$1"
fi
}
An idea ?
Thanks

Hello all,
I recently upgraded from version 1.0.2 to 1.5(906) and seem to have
lost an option. In 1.0.2 I was able to select View->Syntax Highlight
As -> (insert language here). Now with 1.5 that option is not
available in the menu. I do get the proper highlighting if I save
the file with the appropriate extension (.py for Python), but I can
not seem to find a place to start off that way. That is except for
using a template.
Did I mung something up here?
I have deleted and reinstalled but to no avail.
Thanks,
Brian
Hi there -
Ive been a textmate user for many months now. I notice the most
recent download (rev 898) has dramatically changed the "find" dialog,
most importantly in that it has removed the option to search and
replace within a selection !
I noticed that the "edit" menu has a selection "replace all in
selection". There are two problems with this. One is, it doesnt
work ! I click on it when i have some text selected, and nothing
happens. If it is in fact using my previous selection, thats not
very convenient since I dont get a chance to tell it what i want to
search and replace. Also, the key comibination - shift+ctrl+apple
+F ... a little excessive perhaps ?
Why cant the "replace in selection" checkbox be present in the
default "find" dialog like it was, and more importantly, why cant
this checkbox be automatically selected when I have text selected ?
this is how TextPad does it and it is by far the most intutive way to
do it.

# TextMate 1.5
It is with great pleasure that I am releasing [1.5 of TextMate][1]
(5.4 MB).
This is a free upgrade for all registered users and it features
hundreds of major improvements over the last non-beta (1.0.2) which
was released a year ago.
The jump in version number from last beta (1.1ß17 r898) is to
indicate how much has changed since 1.0.2, and that this release is
to be seen as half-way towards the 2.0 release.
_TextMate is a text editor that combines the beauty of Cocoa with the
power of UNIX and is intended for programmers and power users._
_TextMate has been built for both PPC and i386 and comes with a
[complete manual][2]._
