folding issue with loop ... end loop (vhdl bundle)

by Peter Vohmann

Hello Mates, Folding is probably what drives me with open arms to you, guys. If I'm getting it to work, that is. A pathological case is this vhdl construct: loop do_something; exit when signal='1'; do_something_more; end loop; My first attempt looks like this (just longer): foldingStartMarker = "(?i:(loop|case|if))"; foldingStopMarker = "(?i:end)"; But this does not work, because the "loop" also matches the stopMarker! TextMate will not mark the end line at all, and get quite screwed up in building its folds. The same for "end if", "end case", to name a few. Any reasonable ideas how to write a foldingStartMarker pattern that will _not_ trigger on the final line? Peter

Spaces instead of tabs -> per filetype basis?

by Shanti Braford

Hey all, I was wondering if there was a way to setup different file types to use the "Tab -> space" conversion feature, and others... not. I.e. for Ruby on Rails code (.rb and possibly .rhtml), I'd like to have Tabs automatically get converted to spaces. But for .txt files and other file types where I would like to keep tabs... is there a way to do this somehow? Just finally registered my copy of TextMate... and, knowing how incredibly versatile it is, I'm just figuring there's got to be a way to pull this off somehow (w/o making it a new feature, which, imho would be nice too!) =) Shanti

Minor Feature Request: Zoom Below 9px

by thomas Aylott

To test what this could look like you can use a font size of like 5 in prefs. After you zoom in, it won't let you zoom back out past 9. If we (I, really... who cares about anyone else :D ) could zoom out past 9, we could get a good visual overview of the whole document. Not a big change, but it'd be handy to me atleast.

PHPCodeCompletion 1.0b4 available

by Mats Persson

1.0b4:: 1. Added a preference setting to handle the snippet output behaviour, so that it can handle both my style ( spaces_within_brackets ) and the PEAR standard style (no_spaces_within_brackets) styles on the fly independent of the stored snippet format. 2. Minor change to notify users of the documentation issues (no local documentation or internet access = empty documentation) You can find out more information about PHPCC 1.0b4 from here [ http://www.imediatec.co.uk/tm/phpcc/ ] or the download it directly from this link [ http:// www.imediatec.co.uk/tm/phpcc/PHPCodeCompletion-1.0b4.zip ] Please keep me informed of the ideas, problems and so on.

Latex preferences: symbols

by Berndt Farwer

I think the scope for the symbol list preferences of the Latex bundle ought to be set to "text.latex entity.name.section" The default of "text.latex entity.name" shows every "\item” in the "Go to symbol ..." (cmd-shift-t) list. Berndt

Question about Rails syntax highlighting

by Raymond Brigleb

Sorry if this is Obvious Question #37... but I swear TM used to have Rails-specific syntax highlighting and that disappeared (is this possible?) in one of the recent betas or something. When I look at my Language selection, I only see Ruby. Am I crazy? Wasn't there a Rails one? Can I just grab that from somewhere? It seemed to highlight more detailed and specific syntax than Ruby does.... Thanks, Raymond

Anyone using ctags?

Save files when focus is lost - to a temp file?

by Oli

Hi All, I'm really liking TM - it's taking a while to get my non-programmer's head around, but I'm learning lots in the process. I really like the "Save files when focus is lost" preference (Preferences > Advanced > Saving > Other), but if you haven't saved the file yet (still 'untitled') TextMate has a heart attack when swapping to another program. As an aside I really need to kill dock bouncing already. I think it'd be even better for the file (if not yet saved) to be automatically saved as a temp file, either in a similar way to using command-enter from other programs, or using the first few words of the file as filename in a TextMate folder in Documents. This temp file could then be automatically deleted when the user saves for the first time. just a thought you probably had already. keep up the great work! peace - oli

Retro ANSi 2

by thomas Aylott

Check it out. All new. All oldschool. Back to the heart of the medium. The only color that isn't a direct ANSi color is the background color on non-source pages (just cuz it looks keener ) this one should look pretty slick for javaScript, CSS & RUBY (as well as HTML, XML & ASP) I thrive on entertaining insults & opinions. Please cater to my sickness.

Retro ANSi DOS color theme

by thomas Aylott

Howdy. I first got started in computers with a DOS pc. I was an artist for dial-up BBS boards before the internet was. I know most people are into Mac chic, but I've always had a fondness for my oldschool CiA agent_42 days. Check out http://www.sixteencolors.net/Artist/?Artist=agent_42 to see what the 'scene' was like back in 'the day'. This theme is a first release. I can't code without a good basic theme, but I need to make it better, especially for other languages. This theme has been tested with html, xhtml, XML (and friends), ASP, ASP.net, ruby on rails, javascript & CSS. I'm not too thrilled with how it looks for javascript & CSS, but i don't code in those (with textMate) too often. The theme rendering & code view does get a bit slowish with all the fancy stuff going on with transparency & background colors. If anyone can suggest ways to speed up the rendering that'd be swell. I have Quarts 2D extreme turned on (using quartz debug & force quitting to keep changes) for faster text-rendering & better anti- aliasing. I'm using proFont 9px anti-aliased. The bold only shows up with anti-aliasing off though. please check this out & share your reactions, good or bad. I know this is not for everyone, but I was just so psyched about the AWESOME theming & scope capabilities of textMate not to share.

Insert Closing Tag bug

by Michael Irwin

Recently I've noticed the keyboard shortcut for "Insert Closing Tag" from the Automation menu no longer works in 1.1b16. If I click the menu item the closing tag is inserted, but not if I type the shortcut Option-Cmd-. I haven't customized any Bundles, but I am using the latest Bundles via svn. Anybody else seeing this? Thanks, Michael Irwin

ASP.net & SQL bundle

by thomas Aylott

is anybody working on an ASP.net bundle? Specifically, VB.NET i've got some work-arounds to make the regular ASP bundle work for it, but there are still a few niggling problems. I'm just getting started with all this fancyness & don't really have much time to mess with stuff. I have a custom color theme done & i've made some snippets & commands. I'm addicted to macros. I work in an all windows office (we actually just got a macMini server for the 'blog') so I've got to deal with a lot of 'classic' ASP 3 & poorly written ASP.net code. In the mean time i've got this workaround to make serverside script tags work like <% ... %> tags. This takes advantage of the fact that the ASP language bundle incorrectly ignores the closing %> tag if preceded by a comment_this_line character "'" (what 'tard came up with the idea of using a quote mark as a comment_this_line character!?!?!1!). So, nobody fix that problem without also making an ASP.net bundle, thanks. <%'textmate fix for ASP.NET script tag' %> <script runat="server"> ... </script>  i know you're all thinking: "coding ASP.net on a mac, what are you a masochist?" ANSWER: It's better than the alternative. (IE: using a PC to code ASP.net) -------------------- SQL. Is there anyone working on an advanced version of the SQL language module? The current one is... not good. (isn't it nice to know that your efforts are being appreciated? :D)

Paren matching

by David Lee

Hi all. First up -- congrats to Alan. Textmate's continuing to improve faster than any other editor I know of, and is already unarguably one of the best. so , any chance we can have both pairs of (){}[]s better highlighted when the cursor is adjacent to one of a matching pair? it'd be nice to have theme elements for the bracket fg/bg colours. I think the short blink we have at the moment is far too little, and it makes more sense to me to have both characters highlighted. ------------ cheers, David

Emacs-like Toggle-behavior for cmd-T, Keyboard-driven tab reordering

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

I appreciate cmd-T as a more flexible replacement for old-school keyboard buffer switchers like the traditional Emacs c-x b action. However, one of the most critical uses of c-x b, in my experience, is the ability to instantly toggle between the last 2 buffers in the current window/pane, which cmd-T (and the stationary ordering of the tabs, as compared to something like the stack ordering of the File History dropdown in XCode editor panes) cannot accomplish. I understand that certain special cases of toggling, like switching between matching, identically-named header and implementation files can be accomplished with special commands and that toggling can be achieved by manually reordering tabs in such a way that the desired 2 files are adjacent in the tab list, but this misses the deeper point that toggling between the last 2 files -- no matter how they were reached, what their file name relationship is, or where they fall in the tab list -- is one of the most central and frequently performed actions at least in my programming experience. (And it is, of course, all the more critical without split pane support ;). It seems to me, however, that this can be addressed quite simply and elegantly in the context of the current cmd-T system. All that would have to happen is that the first item in the list would always default to the last active tab when the window is first opened. Given that the list ordering is dynamic and adaptive, á la Quicksilver, it hardly seems that this very subtle reordering would present any sort of usability issue or confusion. Of course, how this most-recently-used item might be prioritized in the list after the user starts typing, if at all, is an open question, but one which need not even be answered a first version (the behavior can perfectly reasonably be just as it is now after the first search letter is typed). The general issue of fast toggling and navigation between files also brings up a small related thing I've been wanting to see for some time: I would love to have the ability to re-order tabs using the keyboard, alone -- just something akin to select next/previous tab, but which moved the current tab right/left. That's it for now. Back to the code. -jrk

Key bindings question

by Benjamin Jackson

Just hacked TextExtras to do auto-completion on space... however to get it to work I had to alter DefaultKeyBindings.dict, which is now messing with TM as I assume it's using a different InputManager and can't find the functions I assigned to the space key. It would be nice to be able to use the completion functionality within TM, but if it's not technically possible then I'll settle for just resetting the bindings for it. How can I override these bindings just for TextMate? I'd assume it would be possible by editing the KeyBindings.dict file in TM's Resources, however I have no idea how (or if it's even possible) to map a key binding to an NSTextView method with arguments. My first try would be { " " = "insertText:@' '"; /* space */ } However I read somewhere about @-initialized strings being defined at compile-time, so this doesn't work. Any ideas? I'll make sure to put together a nice write-up when I'm done :) ___________________ Ben Jackson Diretor de Desenvolvimento ben(a)incomumdesign.com http://www.incomumdesign.com

Creating plist for SuperCollider file type: .sc

by Iannis Zannos

Hello, I am trying to create a new plist entry for editing files in the SuperCollider language (see: http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/supercollider/ or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperCollider ) I started by duplicating the entry for c++ and editing the initial entries as follows: { scopeName = "source.sc"; fileTypes = ( "sc", "rtf", "txt" ); However this did not work. It works for files of name <filename>.sc.rtf, <filename>.sc.txt but not for <filename>.sc Could someone please help me correct the plist entry so that it works for <filename>.sc? Otherwise the syntax definition for c++ works quite well to cover also the actual syntax of SuperCollider (some adjustments will be needed to make this complete). Thanks, Iannis Zannos

Floating Palettes for Macros and Commands

by Ivan

Hi, As much as I love to keyboard shortcuts, coming from an avid QuickSilver user, I will love to have a floating windows sometimes for less-used macros and commands. Navigating through three levels of menus really bores me. I really don't want to assign yet another arcane keyboard command either. Is a language specific floating palette (like a tear-off menu from Automation) a sound idea? Ivan

Converting BBEdit glossaries (was: TextMate Question)

by Allan Odgaard

On 07/08/2005, at 15.24, Jeff Powell wrote: [ I have cc'ed the mailing list since the info provided may be useful to others as well ] > How then do I take this glossary from BBEdit and copy it over to > the TextMate drawer. I'm not familiar with BBEdit's glossary functionality, but I downloaded some example glossaries and made a perl script which converts these to TextMate snippets (placing them in a bundle). You run it with the folder containing a set of glossary items as argument. It will then create a tmbundle named after this folder, containing the items in the folder (as snippets). It removes #indent#, converts the #placeholderstart/end# to TM-notation for placeholders, does the proper escapes, and saves this as a property list (the format used for TM snippets) in the created bundle. It uses the first word of the filename (in lowercase) as the tab- trigger. And you can supply a scope to be used for the script by using -s <scope> as first argument. So for example I downloaded Marc's Bourne Shell Glossary. After mounting the disk image I ran this command from Terminal: ./glossary_to_snippet.perl -s source.shell '/Volumes/Bourne Shell Glossary.sh 1.0/Bourne Shell Glossary.sh' Then (re)start TextMate, and there's a new bundle named “Bourne Shell Glossary” which contain the snippets. This (TextMate) bundle is placed in ~/Library/Application Support/ TextMate/Bundles -- from Finder you'll need to use Show Package Contents to inspect the bundle, but you can drag it to TextMate to have a look at the contents. I hope this provides you with enough details to convert your glossaries. If you're not familiar with what the scope is, I recommend this blog posting [1]. Kind regards Allan [1] http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2005/07/06/introduction-to- scopes/

BBCode syntax highlighting

Hi all, I'd like to add support for highlighting the syntax of BBCode, but I'm not really sure where to start.

Run command on Event and other stuff

by Tim Shadel

Hi, I'm really new to TextMate, having recently converted to a bit of Ruby development on the Mac. I'm interested in writing a bundle or some commands to help me use a tool called Hackystat. You can check out a few things about it here: http://hackystat.ics.hawaii.edu/hackystat/docbook/ch05.html Basically, it's a metrics collection server. It lets you install small sensors to collect software metrics, like how long you worked on a particular file. Since it's automatic it stays out of your way, it's consistent, and it's reliable. Each user controls their own metrics data. I want to write a sensor to collect these metrics from TextMate. The basics would be: 1) log when a new file is opened, 2) log when a file is closed, and 3) every so often (30 seconds) log which file is in the active window. Pretty simple. I'd like to start a small command-line program from a TM command, but I'd like to keep it open until TM is closed and send info to it periodically throughout the TM session. I've seen several items about launching command-line programs from TM, but can I keep one open in the background? Does TM block until the script finishes or can my Ruby script start another process and then return and get back to that process later? Can I intercept the File | Open actions and then record my metrics? I haven't seen how to do this in other posts. There's a growing list of tools that support Hackystat, including Emacs, Vim, Eclipse, and VisualStudio. I'd love to add TextMate to that list. http://hackystat.ics.hawaii.edu/hackystat/docbook/apa.html Plese let me know if any of this is possible and where I can dig up some documentation on it. Thanks!

Fix for subversion log error

by Noah M. Daniels

I'd just started using the Subversion bundle, and everything was working great once I defined $TM_SVN except for the Log command, which would complain that it couldn't find the svn binary. Turns out that the problem is within the format_log.rb program; the line defining $svn_url read as follows: $svn_url = `svn info #{ENV['PWD'].quote_filename_for_shell}|grep URL| cut -b6-`.chop changing it to: $svn_url = `#{ENV['TM_SVN']} info #{ENV ['PWD'].quote_filename_for_shell}|grep URL|cut -b6-`.chop corrects the problem.

Renaming open files from Finder

by Charilaos Skiadas

Not sure if this is documented yet, but I've been having problems with files that are open in TM, and at the same time I edit their name through the Finder. It seems that TM still works with the old filename, and if I save it will save (a copy of) the file with the old filename. If the file is inside a folder and it is open in TM, and I rename the folder, then TM asks me for my password (!!!) when I try to save the file. No particular error messages in the console. Anyone else can reproduce this? Haris

TM Documentation & RubyOnRails == Your time to help, please !!

by Mats Persson

OK, considering the number of RoR users using TM and on this list, I am throwing this whole thing out to the community to help and assist with. Over the past few weeks I've been working on the TM documentation site (90% done), and has hacked a version of Hieraki to handle it. I've done a variety of changes even though I'm a RoR newbie, but now I'm a bit fed up with my limitations, and the time it takes for me - as a newbie - to do the stuff. It's a good learning ground, but I'm also completely out of time for doing this stuff, so I am hoping that others are willing to help out as well. Outstanding issues & problems: 1. Routing & URLs issues This is 90% done, and the documentation now handles human readable URL's like these: a. URL: site.com/chaptertitle/ b. URL: site.com/chaptertitle/pagetitle/ c. URL: site.com/chaptertitle/subchaptertitle/ d. URL: site.com/chaptertitle/subchaptertitle/pagetitle/ Translated into TM doc's speek: if we have a chapter called "Appendices" and a subchapter called "RegExp" and then a page called "Overview" then the url becomes site.com/appendices/regexp/overview/ The outstanding issues here are: -- not all links are working fully/correctly -- there's too many hacks in the code, -- too much repeated code -- may have issues in it that I've not thought off 2. Support for Markdown within Hieraki. Allan prefers to work with Markdown code, and Hieraki does only support Textile at the moment. I and many others (?) prefer Textile so ideally the system should cater to both. 3. User comments System Having the ability for user's to easily comment on existing documentation is in my mind fundamental to good documentation, and that's why I'm hoping for this feature to be added as soon as possible. The following two points are more important really and are stuff that I can't possibly do, so they really do need someone else to help out with. 4. Code Checking As a newbie, I'm sure to have done some bad stuff, so it needs someone more knowledgeable to look through the code and confirming it's solid & efficient. 5. Installation on Allan's TextDrive a/c and setting up issues. You can see a basic working version - minus some of the latest changes - on this URL: [ www.imediatec.co.uk/tmdocs/ ] I have it all in a SVN a/c on TextDrive, so I can easily open it up for you to work on and commit your changes to. So please take some time to help out !! Worst come worst, I'd be grateful IF I could just have a few people to ask for help from as and when I need it. Yes, I'm on the RoR IRC and ML, and although I've been helped there, it's not always convenient and fast. OK, I'm sure some of you will say "why a hacked version of Hieraki ? Why not ....?" and so on. Hieraki did the vast majority of what was needed, but had some limitations, like no single page display (done), no search (done) and it was easy to make it look and work like the new design style of the Macromates site (due to be public later on this year).

Keybindings

by Andreas Wahlin

In order for the system caret to move with pageup/down, I use this in my Keybindings file "\UF72C" = "pageUp:"; / * Page Up */ "\UF72D" = "pageDown:"; / * Page Down */ This works all and well, but is it possible to get smooth scrolling with it to? If i remove these lines, I get smooth scrolling but the caret won't move (actually, textpad gives smooth scrolling). Also, I'd like tab to indent/outdent lines of selected code, but "\U0009" = "indent:"; / * Tab */ seems to do nothing (actually, it does do something, it completely disables tab in textpad). as always, thankful for assintance Andreas

Additional Keyword support for SQL Language

by Mark Cotner

This size issue is largely a myth. Remember, we are discussing "pictograph" languages. In English, the word "forest" requires six characters. In Kanji (Chinese/Japanese pictographs), it requires one. Even if we need four bytes to encode that one character, it will still be smaller than the resulting English encoding. There are some encodings that squeeze Kanji into a smaller space, it's true, but to say that the files balloon in size without this is not really accurate, in comparison with other languages.

However, the Japanese (the one I know), at least, can just drop into their Kana (Hiragana and Katakana) syllabary to "spell out" any word they can't represent with Kanji. I assume the Chinese have a similar option, though I'm not familiar with that language. However, since the average Japanese person knows a few thousand Kanji and Unicode includes way over that, I seriously doubt this is a common problem. James Edward Gray II

Features request: columnar editing mode and fixed/delimiter conversion

by Jeremy Dunck

My favorite text editor on Windows is UltraEdit, and it has a columnar editing mode which is useful surprisingly often. I am pretty sure I understand how TextMate's columnar editing works (option-arrow to create column selection, then type). However, having a columnar mode makes the feature much more useful. When in the columnar mode, any cursor movement stays in the mode, and shift-arrow does what you'd expect it to: shift-up/down keeps the same columns selected but adds/removes the next line while shift-left/right adds/removes the next column for all lines. When you have one or more columns selected, typing replaces the contents with the character just pressed, but keeps the same number of columns. Typing with 0 selected columns enters that key on every row. Delete removes all the selected columns, yielding 0 selected columns. Paste enters the clipboard contents into the first row of the selected columns, though honestly, I'd prefer that it pasted to all selected rows. I think the primary benefit of a columnar mode is the ease of keyboard selection of the column range. Additionally, UltraEdit has a feature where you can analyze a delimited file and automagically convert it to a fixed width file, which lends itself to columnar editing. When done, you can then convert it back to a delimited format. The two features work together to make it great for editing flat files of both fixed and delimited flavors. I'm attaching a screenshot of the fixed scan dialog in ultraedit for illustration of the feature. It's not the best designed UI ever, but: x The current file is assumed to be delimited. x The scan button analyzes the current file's lines to try to determine the max length needed for each field based on the options selected (which are all settings except "Keep Delimiter" and "Field Widths"). x Based on this analysis, the Field Widths textbox is populated with each field's width. If you know the widths needed, you can skip the scan step and just enter your widths in the Field Widths box directly. x Once you're happy with the Field Widths values, you click Convert to translate it to fixed width. The "Keep Delimiter" option determines whether the original delimiters are stripped from the resulting fixed file. The Convert To Delimiter dialog is much simpler (screenshot excluded); it just takes the last Field Widths used for conversion to fixed, and slaps on the given delimiter at those lengths. === Sorry for the length, but I think these are very useful features which could be implemented (with a better UI) in TextMate, and I'd be happy to see them included.

Just came here ...

by Andreas Wahlin

I just added myself to the list. My name is Andreas Wahlin, aged 25 from Sweden. I fancy myself as a "web developer" and know my way around JavaScript, DOM scripting and such things. I've really just began to discover the rich world of wed development and try to immerse myself in standards, AJAX and other buzzwords. I bought a Mac just a few months back, being totally fed up by windows and not managing to switch to (Suse) Linux. To be honest, I haven't really switched over to TextMate just yet, but something clicked with beta15 and I'll probably be doing the switch real soon, TextMate seems to be heading in the correct way so I really see it as a future investment!

Two things I noticed this evening

by Matt Mower

Hi folks, I noticed a couple of odd things this evening while working in TxMt. 1) In the bundle editor, when I add a new bundle (and again when I added a new snippet to that bundle) the current select went back to the top of the tree (C in my case) and looked a bit odd into the bargain. 2) When I have more tabs than will fit in the tab bar (so that you get the >>), and am looking at a file which is not in the tab bar, there is no way to get access to that files tab any more. My apologies if these are known issues, I did have a quick look for issue tracking in the wiki but couldn't see it.

A Newbie Introduction (nursing student)

by Jeff Schneiter

Hello there, I downloaded the trial version of TextMate 3 days ago and payed for it yesterday, am quite happy with what I have seen so far. One of the big selling points for me is that there is no toolbar! In the past I used Mellel and chose compact view to turn off the toolbar; I prefer the floating pallet. Toolbars are just way too distracting on the eyes, especially MS Word (a way too busy toolbar). So as a nursing student (RN program in Seattle) I will start using TextMate and LaTeX to write my papers. One of my prereqs was English 102 in which I had to write a 20 page paper with over 20 references, 4 graphics, using MLA citations. I used Mellel without any type of bibliography software, and Mellel worked like a champ, quite good at setting styles; but I never worked with TOC or sections. I did have to spend extra time manipulating the text to eliminate widows/orphans and other layout issues. During the 2nd quarter of the program I had to write a 7 page paper using APA citations. For that one I used Apple's Pages and rolled my own references again. But first I used CopyWrite to write the paper before importing into Pages. I did not use fullscreen mode - don't like it. CopyWrite was really nice for organizing that paper, and plan on using it again. This summer I have no classes, so I have spent time learning LaTeX and have converted the 7 page paper to LaTeX, using BibDesk and the apacite package. That was using TexShop. To make TextMate a little like TexShop I installed Schubert's PDF plugin, changed the pdflatex command to "Command-T" and created a bibtex command set to "Command- B". I copied latexErrWarnHtml.py into the local Latex.tmbundle (are there other mods I need to make?). So I think I am set for next quarter's 15 page paper (on the cardiac and respiratory systems), and for the Masters program (whenever that may be). Thanks for an excellent program for editing LaTeX. Cheers, Jeff

Feature idea: split window for output

by Chris Jenkins

Ive been thinking about some of the features that Eclipse has of late and it strikes me that one of its strengths is the way it manages multiple panes within a single window, so I was wondering whether it would be possible to add a new type of window for commands to output into, this is the idea: instead of opening a new window, open the window embedded within the current editing window, sort of like Omniweb does with its site preferences, the window splits horizontally with the site above and the prefs below. This would be great for commands that check syntax as it would avoid obscuring the editing window whilst sill allowing access to the output so that it could be clicked on etc. What does everyone else think? Allan, do you think this would be a good idea? Chris ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.

Project drawer holding position through filesystem update

by Robert M.Zigweid

I'm not sure if this is a known issue or not, but it would be nice if it were fixed. Currently when the project drawer updates, it moves back to the top of the drawer rather than staying wherever it had previously been put. On large projects this gets pretty annoying. Using Command-T instead helps a lot, but I still do use the drawer for other things. I know that redoing the drawer is something on the todo list, and am wondering if this is part of it? Also if that's still a ways off, would it be a quick fix in the meantime to remedy this issue? If it's much work, I wouldn't consider it worth it. If it's a bitflip..maybe I would ;) Thanks. -- Robert M. Zigweid http://robert.zigweid.net rzigweid(a)zigweid.net

Theme Trouble: C, Bold

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

I haven't futzed with the new themes too much until recently -- I just found some decent colors and ran. However, as I get back to C from a bunch of Python and other work, I noticed that the new themes generally seem to lack much definition of anything in C/C++. It turns out the issue is twofold: First, of course, the classic problem of distinguishing many different kinds of elements in a simple C/C++ parser. C parsers aren't easy or fun to write, and so the current language definitions, perhaps not surprisingly, don't seem to detect declaration.function, variable, entity.class, declaration.name.class, etc. However, somewhat more vexing was the fact that some themes (Pastels on Dark) seemed to have substantially less styling than others in C. Looking further into the theme definitions, however, revealed that Pastels on Dark, in particular, was designed to rely on bold text just as much as color, and I wasn't seeing it. Switching fonts to Courier [New] revealed the bold face elements, but it seems odd that my font of choice -- Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, which has a perfectly good Bold which shows up in the font selection dialog, and which renders fine as the whole-document default font if set to bold -- didn't show up as bold in the elements styled to be bold-face. I've never done any development against Apple's Font APIs, but I'd guess there's some bug which is preventing the Bold variant from being detected in the Bitstream font. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the default appears as BitstreamVeraSansMono–Roman (meaning that it appears that the default is set to a specific variant, rather than to the base font, since Roman stands in for Regular in the Bitstream Vera font packages)? I'd love to see this fixed. And is there any news on the C/C++ language definition front? Has anyone tried to add more sensitive language definitions with more detailed elements, like those I mentioned? It seems this sort of task would be made much easier by the ability to define and use a symbol table from within the language definition grammars (since tokens in C-like languages generally can't be re-used, just detecting the type of their declaration should be enough to style every subsequent element with the same name in a given file), but perhaps this is too much to ask of the already freshly-rewritten language parser engine. I'd be glad to work on it, one way or another, as long as no one else is already doing so. -jrk

Kernel Panics on Tiger

by Brian Dote

Anyone getting kernel panics on Tiger? I'm running 10.4.2 and I can consistently crash the machine with TextMate, on both my PowerBook and G5. Last night I had another one which caused my OS to not reboot, and I had to re-install Tiger. I see that only 10.3 is supported but I liked the tool so much that I tried it on Tiger. Thanks! -dP

Restore open files on launch?

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

What ever happened to the option to restore open files/projects whenever TextMate is relaunched? I used to appreciate this and didn't quite notice when exactly it disappeared (or if it just got switched off somewhere in my config and I stupidly can't find it). Thanks. -jrk

Feature Idea: Photoshop/Safari-style drag navigation

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

I recently discovered that Safari supports simple drag navigation around large pages rather line Photoshop's space-drag functionality: by simply holding ctrl and moving the mouse (not dragging -- the mouse button remains up), the cursor changes to a hand which grabs and drags the page. Perhaps I'm really late to the game on this one, but I'm totally hooked. I've been finding, however, that I'm so attached to this mode of navigation when reading in Safari that I'm constantly subconsciously trying to do it in all sorts of other apps. I personally think this would be a fantastic way to browse text in TextMate. Like all good programmers, I'm of course completely attached to the keyboard when actively developing, but there are many times when trying to figure out some code or reading a README is much more like browsing than active development, and in these situations I'd really love to have this sort of interface. It's particularly great for trackpad (or wacom tablet) use. Far from super-high priority, but at least worth a brief thought, as it's probably not the most challenging bit of polish to add. -jrk

Latest release too slow

by Tijs

Does anybody have any speedup tips for textmate? It never was the fastest of text editors but it's latest release (not CVS but stable) is really unworkable on my little iBook. Even in a 100 line html file it takes forever to scroll to the end of a line or the bottom of the document. I only use textmate for PHP, HTML, CSS, Javascript and Ruby so would it help if i just scrap all the extra's for the diferrent programming languages? Thanks for any optimization tips you might have! -- Tijs Teulings Automatique m: +31 (0)624685608 www.automatique.nl

Bug when drag and drop of an image file ?

by Ned Baldessin

Hi, I'm not sure if this have been discussed before, but when I drag and drop an image file from the Finder to an HTML document in TextMate, this is what I get : ## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt) <img src="Angela-Brunton/Angela-Brunton-1.jpg" width="600" height="570" alt="Angela Brunton 1" /> If I drag *two* images or more, the error message appears in the alt attribute of all elements, except the last one : ## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt) <img src="Angela-Brunton/Angela-Brunton-2.jpg" width="600" height="356" alt="## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt) <img src="Angela-Brunton/Angela-Brunton-3.jpg" width="600" height="426" alt="Angela Brunton 3" />" /> Has this bug been identified ? Thanks, - n.

Feature requests

by Dylan Smith

Here are a couple of Project Drawer feature requests. 1. Double-click on folder name should expand folder. (iTunes's Radio streams used to work the way TextMates does now, but with the latest release they've enhanced it as I'm suggesting). It's a small point, but frequently used interface elements shouldn't rely solely on a tiny triangle. 2. Standard keyboard shortcuts. First-letter navigation to file or folder beginning with that letter would be great. Command-Down-arrow should open file or expand folder. Return key should rename. Thanks for a great product. As a recent switcher I honestly feel TextMate is one of the big advantages of using a Mac. --Dylan

Indenting soft-wrapped lines?

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

I'd love to use soft wrap, but find it completely unusable in code when long lines wrap to column 0 of the next line, rather than to some appropriate indent level. Is this configurable somewhere, like it is in Xcode, VisualStudio, etc.? Thanks. -jrk

sorting in symbol popup

by Chris Jenkins

Allan, first let me just say how much I am appreciating the "go to symbol" popup, a real timesaver and so much nicer than my hand made version, however I am wondering whether it would be possible to somehow specify the ordering of this list? For me, using large-ish class files it lists all the functions (which is good), but it would be nice to have these in alphabetical order as opposed to the order in which they occur in the file. I can image that this isn't the way that everyone would want it, maybe some sort of preference or syntax file option would work? Do you have anything of this nature planned?

Enhancement Request: Visible files in a project

by Robert M.Zigweid

This would affect directory based projects. It would be convenient to be able to change/set which files in the structure are ignored or seen. This could be based on an individual file. This could be based on (perhaps) a regular expression. For example, I might not want to ignore all of the '.' files which I don't appear to see now. (This is an understandable default. They are 'hidden' afterall.) But I also am very unlikely to want to see any '.pyc' files in my projects. Ditto for .class, .o, etc. -- Robert M.

Introduction to scopes

by Allan Odgaard

Preparing for the actual manual, I wrote a piece which is supposed to be Scopes 101: http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2005/07/06/introduction-to- scopes/ When I do documentation-style blog posts, you're always more than welcome to send me constructive criticism, especially if there are things which are unclear or you think could be better explained (you can use the comments for this as well).

feature request (async command execution)

by Nick Hristov

Alan, I do not know if this has been asked for, or noted previously. It would be nice to run commands asynchronously: [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:(SEL)aSelector toTarget:(id) aTarget withObject:(id)anArgument] and that runs the command in the background (with potentially an activities panel). This would be really useful when making large builds directly from TM's interface. Currently the UI blocks until the command is completed. Nick

MTASC/TextMate

by Ben Jackson

How many of you are using TextMate for actionscript development? If so, are you using MTASC? I'm thinking about implementing some things like incremental compilations, scanning for undeclared variables, packages, etc... Just wanted to gauge the interest in this and maybe get some insight into the possibility of it. ___________________ Ben Jackson Diretor de Desenvolvimento ben(a)incomumdesign.com http://www.incomumdesign.com

Refresh File Listing

by Eric Curtis

Sorry if this is oh so obvious but I can not figure out if this is possible or something that was already asked for and will come in the future (sorry if this is the case). I have an html site and the way I like to make new files in many cases is to duplicate an existing file (would be great if this was added to the project drawer) so I went to the finder and duplicated the files but they do not show up in the project drawer even after I close the project and reopen it. Is there some way of easily refreshing the project drawer to match the finder? Thanks, Eric

performance degradation

by Brian Lalor

I just noticed that scrolling in a smallish (321 line) XML document was very slow, and TM seemed to be using a lot of CPU. I restarted TM and that same document scrolled much more quickly. How can I give some meaningful input the next time this happens?

Question on EOL and navigation

by Sean Leach

Not sure what this is called in Textmate speak, but is there any way that Up-Arrow/Down-Arrow navigation does not cross an EOL for a line? What I mean is, if I have a document that doesn't have any lines longer than 20 characters, and I put the mouse cursor at line 40, and then hit arrow down, the cursor will stay on column 40 the whole way down, instead of going to the EOL character for each line (like vim does it)? Thanks!

Re-indenting problems

by Matt Mower

Hi folks, I'm a new user of TextMate and using it to edit Ruby code. What I'm seeing is that when I cut & paste code I find the pasted code is double-indented. I have the Editor Uses Spaces Instead of Tabs setting set, and my View|Tab Size is at the default setting of 3. I am editing new code, not someone elses. There doesn't seem to be a general re-indent option and reformatting obviously isn't the right tool. Can anyone advise me how to get pasted code to look right?

REQ: Find in folder

by Edmundo Ortega

I didn't find mention of this in a cursory search, but if it is not currently possible, it would be nice to be able to do a Find that recursively searches within a project starting at a specified folder. This is more directed than a "search in project" find. Perhaps it could even be added as a control-click option in the project drawer. Thanks! Ed

performance tweaks

by Nikolai Hristov Hristov

List, Anybody have any good performance tips for TM over WebDAV? I find it dog slow to use certain features such as the Apple-T search list (does it re-read all the filenames every single time). I am on a 100Mbit connection b/n the machines (and the host machine is a P4 monster), so overall setup performance is good. Overall performance over network leaves something to be desired. Could memory caching help improve performance, and could that be set outside of TM? I use finder to mount the WebDAV share. Nick

Enter key, LaTeX Macros and commands

by Berndt Farwer

Hi, there are two things that puzzle me in the LaTeX language mode of TM: Firstly, the insertion of an \item is bound to -^-, the Enter key or fn-Return, but all I ever get is a new line without the \item. Secondly, there is a macro "LaTeX: Generic Completion" that calls "\"$ {TM_BUNDLE_PATH}/Macros/LaTeXcomplete.pl\""; The file LaTeXcomplete.pl exists in my LaTeX bundle, but I still get the following error: bin/bash: line 1: /Macros/LaTeXcomplete.pl: No such file or directory Other commands, such as LaTeX Tidy work, even though they use the same TM_BUNDLE_PATH variable. I have found that with other commands, if you change anything - even if it's only the key-binding - a copy of the command is generated in the user's Library/Application\ Suppurt/TextMate/Bundles/ directory. If the command invokes some file in the main Library/.../Bundles/..., the command gets broken, since those files are not copied, but obviously the TM_BUNDLE_PATH variable then points to the user's path. I have put symbolic links to the original files in my private copy of the bundle, but this is not very elegant ... Another minor point is the lack of support for correct syntax colouring of \verb!%! ... but this is not used too frequently ;-) I'd be grateful for any help with my problems (perhaps I'm just missing some setting), Berndt

Soft Wrap defined in theme is annoying

by Kumar McMillan

[TM beta 14 ...] I don't really understand why Soft Wrap can now be set in a theme. If it is already in the View menu, wouldn't you consider this a user preference and not language specific? I find it very annoying because I am keeping up with svn and leaving all the defaults set (i.e. Settings: Basic) and now whenever I switch to any document in my project for the first time I have to *manually* activate Soft Wrap in the View menu. I personally cannot see any reason why soft wrap should be turned on for one language and not another (this to me is an editing style preference), but even so, should there not be a way for the user to override this setting? I cannot find anyway to override it. Kumar

Source.tmbundle "Continue line comment" snippet

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

Sorry for being stupid, but could someone please tell me what the -^- character that's the default keyboard shortcut for the Continue line comment snippet in the Source bundle actually corresponds to on the keyboard? It's #^C (as in the actual single character '^C', not '^' followed by 'C') as rendered by less on the ascii plist. I've made a number of educated guesses, but all to no avail. This is just making me feel stupid. I could rebind it, but my experience has generally been that the defaults for things like this are actually quite clever, and I like to know what they are before choosing something else.
