by Patrick James

Hi I've just started using TextMate and I'm hugely impressed by it. My text editor requirements are not very sophisticated, I use it mostly for HTML/CSS and for processing text from time to time from databases, or transcripts of online meetings with chat clients, that kind of thing. I'm sure that I will be using TextMate for my simple AppleScript writing as well now in preference to Apple's rather basic Script Editor. I have been using BBEdit for ages and I feel it is a very fine text editor indeed, however TextMate is a bit of genius. Before I used BBEdit I used the Nisus Writer word processor for text editing in the classic Mac OS. Although a word processor Nisus Writer was a superb text editor and, like TextMate offered many truly unique abilities. Nisus also made a text editor called QUED/M which predated their word processor and had similar unique abilities of their word processor. One of the truly great things about Nisus Writer and QUED/M was the non-contiguous text selection and the way in which Nisus had exploited this. I think Nisus were the first with non-contiguous text selection but today it is quite common-place. An obvious example is Apple's TextEdit which will do non-contiguous text selection. If you are not familiar with it then you can open an TextEdit document and put it in 'rich text' mode if it is not already. Then put some text into it. Now you can select non-contiguous words in that text using command-click. Now that you have selected those words you can press command-B on your keyboard and those words will turn bold. I'm now going to describe how Nisus exploited non-contiguous text selection and why it was so very useful. If you imagine that you have some text which is intended for a web- site. Within the text are various book titles and you wish to surround these with the <em> tag. There is nothing at all about the words of the book titles which is similar. Well with Nisus Writer you would select the book titles non-contiguously, using command-click, then you would get out the Find dialogue and put in the Find field: .+ In the Replace field: <em>&<em> (The & matching all of the Find field) Then you invoke 'Replace in Selection' and each piece of non- contiguously selected text is now surrounded by <em> tags. In Nisus Writer you would turn that operation into a macro and now you can apply the <em> tags to any non-contiguously selected text with great ease. Now it gets cleverer :) In the example above the replaced text, the book titles surrounded by <em> is still selected after the Find/Replace has been performed. This means that further GREP Find/Replace can by performed using 'Replace in Selection. With a programme like BBEdit a search for multiple items in a file will produce a browser identifying the search results. However with Nisus Writer a search for multiple items in a file will leave them selected non-contiguously in the file. This enables you to perform a further search on those non-contiguous selections with 'Replace in Selection' again. To give an example. I think it is nice to have smart quotes in the displayed text in a web- site. To do this I have to use HTML entities. The actual text I have contains 'stupid' quotes, however I can create a Find/Replace that will look for the 'stupid' quotes and replace them with 'smart quote' HTML entities depending on whether they come before or after words. The problem is that there are many 'stupid' quotes in the HTML tags for things like class="main". What I need to do is to find the text between the HTML tags and then replace the 'stupid' quotes in that with the smart quote HTML entities. To do this in BBEdit I created an AppleScript which has a loop. It finds the first instance of 'text between HTML tags' and then replaces 'stupid' quotes with smart quote HTML tags. Then it finds the next instance of 'text between HTML tags' and so on... To do that required me to create quite a clunking AppleScript. However in Nisus Writer I could do it with two simple Find/Replace operations. Because Nisus Writer had non-contiguous selection of course. I could find all the instances of 'text between HTML tags' and know that this was selected. Then I could use 'Replace in Selection' to replace all the 'stupid' quotes with smart quote HTML entities. For Nisus Writer this was an absolutely trivial matter. So, the moral of my story is that in a text editor with GREP Find/ Replace having non-contiguous text selection brings a massive amount of additional text editing power. Patrick

Keep project drawer expansions across sessions

by Jason Tokoph

Is it possible to add the feature or even a plugin that makes TextMate remember which directories I have expanded in the project drawer? I'd like to be able to quit TextMate and be able to keep my project window exactly as I had it the next time I launch the project. Thanks, Jason

Feature Request inline menu for bundle commands with the same shortcut

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, example: if I press CTRL+SHIFT+A I see all subversion commands: Add to Repository Remove From Repository Revert Update to Newest ---------- Commit ---------- Blame Info Log View Revision... Status ---------- Diff Revisions ... Would it be possible to have the submenu titles instead of a line '--------' in TM 2.0? À la: Add to Repository Remove From Repository Revert Update to Newest ---------- Commit ---------- History and Info Blame Info Log View Revision... Status Diff Diff Revisions ... Merge  Show Available Revisions for Merging Resolve Conflicts With FileMerge… .... This already works for shortcuts of commands which are stored in different bundles. And I do not know if one could add a new level in the inline menu. Cheers, --Hans

Feature Request for Bundle Init

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, for some bundles I wrote I came across that it would be nice to have a kind of a "init procedure" for bundles. I'm thinking about to have a standard subfolder called "_INIT_" in a bundle. If that subfolder exists all scripts inside of that subfolder will be executed while installing that bundle (meaning double-click at X.tmbundle, or "Reload Bundles", or TM starts). It should be added a marker that indicates that the init procedure was done to avoid to call these scripts more than once. This init scripts should be execute inside of the bundle environment (to e.g. interpret $TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT correctly). This could be helpful for instance: - to check dependencies of libs, files, versions of executables, OS version etc. and give an alert if something mismatches - to set up/build/unzip bundle specific files (useful to minimize the bundle size while downloading) - to install a specific environment used by the bundle's commands (e.g. for the Rdaemon, it will install Rdaemon while installing the bundle) - to ask the user if a file is missing to download it and to install it I do not know if that request is specific to me. And I do not know what kind of consequences will arise, esp. to check e.g. a text file was changed inside of the bundle which is the source to built an index file. Of course, it could also be a security issue. Furthermore if these init scripts always will execute if TM starts it could be used to check if an update is available for the given bundle. Are there any comments on that? Thanks, --Hans

"Edit in Textmate" not working for Mail.app

by hiaw

Hi, I try to use the "Edit in Textmate" function in Mail but all I get is a blank page. If I type something and save it, it would just add that piece of text to the mail, where the cursor is. Is this the default behaviour? I thought Textmate usually display the whole mail.... The "Edit in Textmate" works in other application, I'm writing this post now through Safari in Textmate.

Insert todo with ruby idents =begin and =end

by Vesa-Pekka Palmu

A annoyance with the insert todo -macro and ruby is that if the cursor is indended when using it it places the =begin and =end tags at the current level. The problem is that ruby only regognizes them at the start of the line. So this works: if true puts "foo" =begin TODO: =end end But this doesn't work: if true puts "foo" =begin TODO: =end end I haven't had the time to look at the insert-todo code too much so I can't provide a patch, but the correct behaviour would be to make sure that there is no whitespace before the comment block tags. (IMO is rather silly of ruby that block comments can't have whitespace before the =begin and =end tags...)

Shortcut Alt+Shift+S conflict

by EDi_nabi

Hello, I'm a fresh user of TextMate, and I have a little problem. By default there is something assigned to the Alt+Shift+S keys combination. This "something" prints a message: cat: /tmp/TextMate-ScratchSnippet.txt: No such file or directory The problem is that this keys combination is also a combination for the Polish letter "Ś", so it's difficult to write regular Polish text. Is there a way to turn this shortcut off? Thank You for help.

Small Python annoyances

by Julio Biason

Hi guys! I bought TextMate a few days ago, but Python editing is giving me the creeps. First, I disabled the Auto-pair characters option, but I still get the closing parenthesis and colon when I create a function ("def"). It ignores when I type the closing parenthesis, but it doesn't ignore the colon. Second, it seems TextMate get really confused when you follow PEP8: If you use spaces instead of tabs, it doesn't do auto-indentation in the next line. In the same issue, it seems TextMate uses tabs instead of spaces (against the PEP8.) Third, still in the PEP8-issues, I'm trying to find a way to make hard-breaks when going beyond column 78. TextMate have soft-breaks, but I'd really like to have it to automagically insert the break for me (and add an indentation to the next line.) Fourth, PyCheckMate doesn't understand when you do an indentation when you do a hard-break and add the indentation (it complains about "unexpected indent".) I guess most of it is easily fixable messing with the Bundle, but I still didn't grasp the whole concept of it. Any points would be really helpful. -- Julio Biason <julio.biason(a)gmail.com> Twitter: http://twitter.com/juliobiason

SVN, Save Project, Regex search and replace

by MattMecham

Our development team has been tracking some odd behaviour with SVN commits and updates. We are primarily a three man team and we all commit code into our repo which works well. However, we've noticed that after I perform a project wide search and replace using regex and then commit, the data committed is not from the current file. The regex replacements are actually carried out on what appears to be a copy of the file from the last "Save Project" date. For example: "appCaches.php" is a file maintained by subversion. Download the files, here: http://www.mattmecham.com/images/appcachefiles.zip r#1355 was made by me on 21st May - which coincides with the last time I chose "Save Project" even though I choose "Save All" regularly. r#1479 was committed by a member of the development team adding data to the file. Although I chose rev 1479, this file was committed around 1450ish and hasn't changed until I did my global search and replace, so it's not just a one revision increment problem. r#1480 was made by me after performing a global search and replace. As you can see, it's actually performed a search and replace on r#1355, not r#1479! What does TextMate do when you choose "Save Project"? I thought it just updated the xml file containing data about open files. Does the regex search and replace work on cached copies anywhere?

Turn off auto-indent? Or paste without indent?

by Skye Poier Nott

Hello, been using TextMate for a few years now, a good record for my first annoyance :) I'm writing a lot of Python code now and since it uses whitespace for blocks, every time I paste something after a function or class etc the pasted text is indented at the level of the previous block when I want it to be pasted the way it was copied. This means every time I paste, I have to select the block I just pasted and un-indent it hundreds of times every day... Is there a command to turn off auto-indent? like Cmd-something Cmd-V Cmd-something so I can toggle it off when pasting in Python. Or even better, some sort of macro like Cmd-Shift-V that would paste without auto-indent Thanks, Skye

comments in LaTeX bundle, wrong with TeX grammar

by Damien Pollet

Hi list, The comment/decomment command (apple-/) has a different effect in LaTeX files (correctly prepends %) than in TeX files (incorrectly prepends #). To fix that: < ciaran> cDlm: ok, if you go into the bundle editor, change the dropdown at top left to select Preferences, and then look for the "Comments" item in the LaTeX bundle < ciaran> and change where it says "text.tex.latex" at the bottom right to be "text.tex" Also here are the conclusions of the IRC discussion with ciaran and allan: - the TeX grammar is not meant to be use per se (then it shouldn't appear in the mode menu at the bottom of buffers) - .sty files are claimed by the TeX grammar (LaTeX would be better) -- Damien Pollet type less, do more [ | ] http://people.untyped.org/damien.pollet

Textmate/Latex: Citation Inclusion does not work

by n00by

Hello together, I'm facing quite a strange problem with the citation inclusion in Latex (->Latex ->Insert ->Citation Based on current word). I always get the following error: /tmp/temp_textmate.zgtzns:4: command not found: kpsewhich -show-path=bib After the error-message, the right citation key is inserted. But i always have to delete the text before (the error message), and this is very uncomfortable. I am working on a project, and the problem only occurs in the "child"-documents, in my Master-File everything the citation inclusion works very fine. I set the the shell variable for the master-file as well as for the Bib-file. I'm quite confused what the problem could be and i hope somebody of you could help me, Thanks a lot! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Textmate-Latex%3A-Citation-Inclusion-does-not-work-tp… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

PHP Debugging - ZDebug Client Coming Tomorrow

by Clark Endrizzi

Hi all, About a month or so ago I asked what people did about php debugging and stuff, something I really wanted that ZDE offered (the client itself I don't like). Several people responded and it sounded like there were a lot of error_log'ing and stuff, but nothing on par with a real debugger. With this in mind, I figured it was worth mentioning this project: http://www.bluestatic.org/software/macgdbp/ It's a Cocoa based client for xdebug that code stepping and more.

How to target my AS3 class library when compiling from Textmate?

Setting up syntax highlighting for python scripts embedded in xml files

by Pedja

Hi, The project I am currently working on requires me to write xml configuration files for a custom application for experience sampling. The files contain embedded python scripts, contained in the following regions: <script event="OnLoad"> <![CDATA[ python script ]]> </script> I know that TextMate is able to deal with embedded regions that have a different language deffinition than the main file (like php and javascript sections in HTML) so I was trying to set this up for XML so I can have proper syntax highlighting for python. So far, though, I have not had any luck with this. I tried adding the following in the xml language definition, both right after the section for embedded java and, when that didn't work, right after the section for CDATA comments, but it doesn't seem to work: { name = 'source.python.embedded.xml'; begin = '<script.*?}>\s*?<!\[CDATA\['; end = ']]>\s*?<script/>'; beginCaptures = { 0 = { name = 'punctuation.section.embedded.begin.xml'; }; }; endCaptures = { 0 = { name = 'punctuation.section.embedded.end.xml'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = 'source.python'; } ); }, This was based on the example for embedded java, but obviously I either didn't understand what the java example does, or I didn't specify the begin and end strings correctly. I also suspect that since there is already a definition for CDATA comments, this needs to be in a specific place to override that definition. Any help with getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. The scripts can be quite long, so having proper syntax highlighting would make things much easier.

Textmate Bundle - Show Scope

Hello Do you have a source code for "Show Scope" action from Textmate bundle? It seems that the newest versions of TM don’t have it. I can see this option in screencasts, documentation but it cleary isn’t there. Textmate bundle from screencast: http://img.skitch.com/20080612-mwpw4tt8qk8efwrdumdx6yttjw.png Current menu (the same in 3 different copies of TM. I checked this with friends): http://img.skitch.com/20080612-ph5gtp54n3rqcx4be7edfed4cs.png Can you tell me where to obtain those snippets and/or explain to me why such a difference? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Textmate-Bundle---Show-Scope-tp17798176p17798176.html Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

tm_dialog question (maybe a feature request)

by Trevor Squires

Hey, after tinkering with tm_dialog for a plugin[1] I have come to really wish you could embed an 'html output' webview into a NIB. The idea being that instead of invoking 'returnArgument:your:arguments:' you could invoke 'htmlOutput:your_command:and:arguments:' and display the results directly in the dialog rather than outputting to an enclosing html view. Note that I don't want to do async and then update the dialog with results (to go in a listview perhaps). The process I'm getting results from can take a long time to complete and can generate reams of information so I want to display the partial results as they come in. Obviously you'd need to wire-up the WebView delegates to point to the File's Owner, as well as tell the File's Owner about the WebView and progress indicator etc etc. I tried some cruel hacks by instantiating OakHTMLOutputManager in my nib and wiring it all together. Alas, I could only manage to evaluate a "TextMate.system" calling [[webview windowScriptObject] evaluateWebScript] via bindings. I also managed some other experiments to tell the OakHTMLOutputManager that it was busy (to update the progress control). The only other behavior I cold elicit was some spectacular crashes trying to convince the OakHTMLOutputManager to invoke anything... yeah, I know I'm tinkering with stuff I shouldn't :-) So... my question: is there any way in current TM to achieve my goal (embed html output in a dialog) - perhaps in DIALOG2 (that I haven't looked at yet)? Assuming the answer is 'no' - I'd just like to say that capability could be an excellent bridge between the current tm_dialog+html_output and a full-blown plugin. Thanks for listening, Trevor [1] http://github.com/protocool/ack-tmbundle/tree/master -- -- Trevor Squires http://somethinglearned.com

Tooltip marginal ligature "bug/improvement" under Leopard

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, there is a very tiny and marginal issue about rendering in the content of the tooltip under Leopard. If I have a string "simplified" (length 10) it will be displayed as "simpliﬁed" (length 9) caused by the used fi ligature. This leads to a small problem if one wants to output a pretty looking table for instance. Under Tiger is that not the case. Is this behaviour switchable? --Hans

some Python thoughts

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, I'm just beginning to like Python ;) Caused by that issue here are some tiny suggestions: Walter Dörwald had the idea to provide exit codes similar to Ruby's exit_codes.rb. This could be integrate in tm_helpers.py à la: def exit_discard(): sys.exit(200) def exit_replace_text(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(201) def exit_replace_document(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(202) def exit_insert_text(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(203) def exit_insert_snippet(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(204) def exit_show_html(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(205) def exit_show_tool_tip(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(206) def exit_create_new_document(out = ''): if out: print out sys.exit(207) Furthermore tm_helpers' sh(cmd) is not UTF-8 safe. If I'm using e.g. popen("grep 'ä' 'test.txt'") or tm_helpers.sh("grep 'ä' 'test.txt'") I have problems with the codec. I tried several things to encode/decode unicode but no success. Maybe some of you can fix this. I went the way to use popen2. Then I didn't have such problems (?) The next issue is regarding dialog.py. Maybe one could the function 'menu' looking for DIALOG2. If there's DIALOG2 it uses that syntax, if not fall back to DIALOG1. This could also be done for Ruby's ui.rb. Cheers, --Hans

Test

by Allan Odgaard

I moved the mailing list to a new server. I couldn’t migrate individual user settings (other than digest/non-digest) so if you had disabled mail delivery or similar, you’ll have to do that again and if you had a list password, then that is now reset. We may also have lost around 40 subscribers, at least if the number of subscribers in Mailman’s web UI is correct. Also, messages to the list sent in the last 8 hours or so have bounced with “relay access denied”. But other than that, everything went smooth :)

weird bug

by Piero D'Ancona

My TextMate today started acting funny. When some text is represented as italic (e.g., in LaTeX, inside an \emph{THIS TEXT SHOWN AS ITALIC} , the text looks corrupted: some of the caracters are replaced by other characters. If I switch back to non-italic e.g. by changing bundle, everything looks ok. Two funny thngs: 1) not all characters are changed. This \textit{AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA} appears perfect. On the other hand, if I write \textit{EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE} some of the E's are replaced by an upperscore: the 4th, the 8th, 12th AND 13th, etc.periodically 2) if I shift the thing, the position of the corrupted characters remain fixed:i.e., if I write \textit{EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE} (three spaces at the beginning) now the 1st, 5th, etc are changed into an upperscore. Any ideas before I download a fresh copy and reinstall? Thanks Piero

Caching Undo-History?

by Dennis

Hi, is there/could there be a way to cache the undo-history in TM or future TM2 even after closing the programm? Users of laptop computers who prefer the sleep mode instead of shuting down the computer will have the advantage to find their desktops/ workspaces just as they have left them, including undo histrories. They will have the disadvantage that sleepmode will suck empty their batteries, especially when you have a lot of RAM installed. Also this is over the time lowering the life expectancy of your accu set. Sometimes I only use sleep mode because I dont want to loose the changes that I have made in TM (code debugging most of the time)... If Historie would be cached, I then have one reason less to worry about shutting down completely or not. Id be happy if more programs could support such a behaviour, it is convenient and will save at least some resources and energy. Thanks & sincere Dennis

Re: syntax highlighting in perl bundle

by Eric Hsu

> Now what context this bit of grammar is really for I don't know. > From what I can see the other examples I gave don't use above. > Perhaps the original author of this grammar can shed light on this > and make the proper changes. I guess I am the original author, though I haven't worked on it for a while (not since my kids were born!). The svn blame for this piece of the grammar goes to gerti, duff and msheets. Let me say that if we as a Textmate community really want to have distributed editing of these grammars, then we should develop a set of test cases to check if our grammar edits break anything. Maybe one or two documents with a .png of the correct highlighting using a default color scheme. best wishes, Eric -- Eric Hsu, Associate Professor of Mathematics San Francisco State University http://math.sfsu.edu/hsu erichsu(a)math.sfsu.edu

No colors from running command output (Ruby bundle)

by Adam Strzelecki

Hi, I'm recently playing a lot with great Ruby web framework called Ramaze. By default when running my project, Ramaze highlights different event types in the console with different colors. So errors are red, warnings yellow, notices green and so on. This works great when I run my program from the Terminal, but when I run it within TextMate with ⌘R and its output window unfortunately I get no colors. I don't know if it is fault of Ruby bundle or TM internals, but I'd love to see the colors there too, as they help reading logs a lot. Best regards, -- Adam Strzelecki |: nanoant.com :|

How to use Teminal and TextMate in Ruby on Rails

by Takaaki Kato

Hi, This is just a generic question on how you use Terminal and TextMate in developing with Rails. I benefit from the bundles like Ruby, Rails RubyAMP and RSpec. My problem is that I would like to have a few Terminal tabs open for one application. I need one tab for running commands like script/generate or rake tasks. (I know I can use Control- Shift-\ for some tasks, but it feels a bit slow to me.) Another tab is for the server log genarated after `script/server`. And optionally I have a tab open for script/console. If I use Control-Shift-O, the Terminal window opens and `cd` to the current directory. RubyAMP bundle has Control-Command-P for a similar feature. But if I use the same command more than once, a new Terminal window shows up. I would like to have a new tab instead. What I do currently is that: 1) Open the TextMate project file, 2) I use Control-Shift-O to open the Terminal window and find myself in the project directory, 3) run the AppleScript I made to duplicate a tab. My AppleScript is written at <http://samuraicoder.net/applescript_duplicating_tabs_terminal >. This is just a shitty script, simply emulates what I do on keyboards. Is there anybody who can know a much better way? Or would you suggest any better workflow? Takaaki -- Takaaki Kato http://samuraicoder.net

Suggestion for the Latex Bundle

by Karl Meyer

Hi, I suggest to add German quotation marks to the Latex Bundle: This can be archieved by adding >> <array> <string>„</string> <string>"</string> </array> << to Latex.tmbundle/Preferences/Miscellaneous.plist and Latex.tmbundle/Preferences/Smart\ Typing\ $Strings$.tmPreferences under the "highlightPairs" and "smartTypingPairs" sections in each file. Please note that I have limited knowledge on how those bundles work. Applying the changes above worked for me. Kind regards Johannes

Re: Writing a Book with TextMate

by John Laudun

I *am* writing my current book in TextMate. I won't claim that my way of doing it is *the* way, only the way that I am doing it. First, let me say that you'd be a fool not to look at Scrivener. It's a great app. I just about bought it myself, but I had (1) already spent enough money on trail of the word processing grail and (2) begun to imagine myself enough of a geek to go it on my own (e.g., I already had a way to play QT files from within textmate) I did, however, copy some ideas from Scrivener, as you'll see in the layout of my project folder: (For those who don't want the JPG: /boats /fieldwork /outputs /research /~mss ) As you can see, the book is about boats -- crawfish boats in south Louisiana (if you want to see a picture, there's one on the front page of my website: http://johnlaudun.org/) -- and it's a nonfiction work with different enough, to my mind, kinds of research that I have it broken out into simply research and fieldwork. The tilde (~) puts things at the top of Finder windows, but the bottom of TextMate project drawers. (I don't care, as long as the part where I'm doing writing is easy to find. I use MSS, for manuscript, instead of draft, ymmv.) Most of the mss texts, as you can see, are in Markdown, but that's really MultiMarkdown. I haven't begun to experiment with footnotes just yet -- I'm still early enough in the drafting process that I can play with reference schema -- and Fletcher's footnote implementation is tenuous. (I'm taking a look at Maruku right now, to see if there's anything to learn there.) I have heard the siren call of LaTeX several times now over the years, but I just can't bring myself to do it. I like being able to share my plain text files with non-markup-aware clients and colleagues and that I can then generate RTF files out of them, which is all publishers want. (Most will also take Word documents, but an increasing number are going back to RTF, precisely because of having to deal with Word's noting system is such a pain.) So there are writers who write with TextMate -- check out the impressive ScreenMate some time! -- but I don't know if there's any consensus. I, for one, wish I could go from MMD texts to RTF or PDF with headers and/or footers, but I haven't found a convenient way yet -- and I keep forgetting to see if I can get Prince working on my MBP. I hope that helps. john

another "Ack in project" TextMate plugin.

by Trevor Squires

Hey, a short while back I went looking for a TextMate plugin for ack but the advertised link was dead so I based one off GrepInProject++ (instead of doing something sensible like contact the plugin's author about the dead link...). Anyhow, my own take on "Ack in project" can be found at: http://github.com/protocool/ack-tmbundle/tree/master It does nifty stuff like remember your last 10 searches, allows you to choose word, literal or case insensitive search as well as configure options like whether you want to show context lines, follow symlinks and ignore .ackrc (you can define a .ackrc in your project directory too). I've still got a few things I'd like to improve with it but it's in daily use (on Tiger, will test Leopard shortly). Regards, Trevor -- -- Trevor Squires http://somethinglearned.com

New "Unicode" bundle in the Review trunk

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Dear all, there's a new bundle called "Unicode" in the review trunk. It is meant to be a place where we can gather any kind of scripts, commands, etc. which are related to general Unicode issue, meaning non-ASCII. This should also a place where we can gather scripts related to specific languages like Japanese, Chinese, Greek etc. This bundle is the first stage. How do we separate this bundle is a future task. Thus, if there is someone who already has such scripts or is willing to support, please let us/me know. Up to now there are the following stuff in: - Normalize according canonical (de)composition of accented characters - Delete Diacritics: façadë έ だ => facade ε た - Convert to a similar Unicode Character: type the letter 'c' to get a list of "cçćĉċčƈ¢ɕʗḉ⒞ⓒｃ￠" - Convert to Greek Character: type 'n' to get "ν" - Show Unicode Name: select some letters to get a list of the Unicode names like LATIN SMALL LETTER A I have many other scripts, but I need some time to polish them up. To get this bundle, simply use the Subversion Bundle's checkout http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Review/Bundles/Unicode.tmbundle save this to the Desktop or whatever. I know, to deal with non-ASCII scripts in TM 1.x is a bit tricky, but TM 2.0 will come ;) Cheers, --Hans

Autocompletion

by Teifion Jordan

I know that autocompletion exists in many bundles but requires you to push ecsape to get it up, is there a way to do the following with a bundle? Lets assume I am editing a PHP document and type "s", the bundle (or even better, TM2 ;)) looks up a list of function names and then outputs after the s, the first keyword in the list that starts with "s". However, that extra text is left as selected, if the user continues to type then they will overwrite the text (and it will alter it's guess accordingly) but if the user hits the relevant key, it leaves the selected text in place and puts the caret (I think that's the name) at the end of the word. If it's not possible in a bundle, is there any chance of seeing something like it in TM2? Thanks Teifion –––––––––––––––––– http://woarl.com/blog

How to implement auto-completion for TeX with alt-esc?

by Mojca Miklavec

Hello, I would like to implement auto-completion with alt-esc, in the same way as it works with HTML. <a n[ALT+ESC]> --->generates---> <a name=""> but having a slightly different syntax: \commandname[options1][options2] where I would like to be able to type \commandname [{here's the caret, I press ALT-ESC}] [] and then I would get a list of options, specific for the first argument after \commandname and specific for the first bracket (second bracket has a different set of commands). A sample usage: \definecolor[orangered][r=.9,g=.5,b=0] or \setupcolors[state=start] % could be state=stop In the first case, I want to hit alt-esc in the second pair of bracket, and I want TextMate to offer me the options "r=", "g=", "b=", "c=", "m=", "y=", "k=" (and maybe to give me hint that a number between 0 and 1 has to follow). In the second case I want to hit alt-esc in the first pair of brackets and I want TextMate to offer me a list of options "state=" and "conversion=", and if I choose state=, I want to hit alt-esc again and TextMate should offer me a list of two options "start" and "stop". I know how to write a ruby script that would get command name or current line as the argument, and would return a list of available options, but I don't know what exactly my script needs to return, and I don't know how & where to plug it in. I've seen this in html: #!/usr/bin/env ruby require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/codecompletion" print TextmateCodeCompletion.new( #[%{class=""}, %{id=""}, %{style=""}, %{<img src="/images/"}, %{<img border="0"}, ], TextmateCompletionsText.new(ENV['TM_COMPLETIONS'],{:split=>','}).to_ary, STDIN.read, {:scope=>:html_attributes} ).to_snippet but it's not really clear to me how to experiment with it outside of html. Moreover, the library codecompletion might not be able to handle too complex cases. (I don't really know, I only fear that.) I'm willing to do it for plain TeX + LaTeX + ConTeXt (I'm currently extracting TeX primitives & ConTeXt commands with options, for LaTeX it would work the same way once I get some list of commands), but I need some pointers where to start first. Thanks a lot, Mojca

Suggested workflows AS3: Flash/Textmate

by Alistair Colling

Hi there, thanks to the list I've managed to get my AS2 projects publishing out of textmate great using MTASC, now I'm trying to do the same with my AS3 projects. I would like to compile my AS3 SWFs direct from Textmate. At the moment I am only building a single SWF as you would get if you published from Flash. I would like to be able to build my graphic assets in Flash then write my code in Textmate and compile from Textmate and view my SWF and trace using Xtrace. Could someone give me some pointers on how to do this, all of the AS3 / Flex bundles seem to want to create a whole Flex application not just the single SWF. If someone could also point me in the direction of a step-by step tutorial for creating Flex Apps in textmate that would be super-handy too as I would also like to learn this at some point.

Bundle command to import from external file

by Ben Smith

I'd like to set-up a command to import text from an external txt/html/ js to a current project but have had no luck finding any tips on how to go about this. Is it possible? I think it would be really handy to have for example a command that pulled in the latest swfobject.js from my SVN repositories. I'm sure this could be useful for lots of other workflow timesavers too.

A long em-dash (and other things)

by Will Robertson

Hello, I've always dreamed about a text editor that will show unicode to me in a slightly more suitable form than what I'm used to. Like a double- width em-dash (assuming fixed width fonts are being used) -- or even a double-width en-dash and a triple-width em-dash -- and visual differentiation between the various invisible characters like no-break space, zero-width joiner, and the half dozen or so extra unicode glyphs that aren't displayed very well in code. While TextMate's "Show Invisibles" does indeed show no-break space, (most of?) the others remain invisible. And em-dash is rather hard to distinguish from en-dash :) Has anyone else ever thought such things before? Certainly I think greater editing support for such unicode glyphs would encourage their use (which, at present, seems rather uncommon). Will

xcode bundle: "Executable doesn't exist"

by Rene Christen

hi all, i'm a long time textmate fan and want to start using it with the openframeworks c++ lib (http://www.openframeworks.cc) the xcode plugin compiles the example projects fine, but at the end gives me this error: Executable doesn't exist: /Users/nay/Documents/openframeworks_05/apps/sketches/moviePlayerExample/build/Release/./openFrameworks.app/Contents/MacOS/openFrameworks it runs fine in xcode, but the path here should actually be: /Users/nay/Documents/openframeworks_05/apps/sketches/moviePlayerExample/./openFrameworks.app/Contents/MacOS/openFrameworks the directory seems to be correctly set in xcode under executables as /Users/nay/Documents/openframeworks_05/apps/sketches/moviePlayerExample which is where the app gets put it looks like it has something to do with the 'active build config' being misread, which is 'Release' in this case. any help hugely appreciated. cheers, nay.

dialog.py UTF-8 problem

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Dear dialog.py developer, I'm not a python programmer but I'm just learning ;) I believe that dialog.py's method "menu" fails if I call it with a list of strings which is encode in UTF-8 (i.e. the string contains non-ASCII characters) What I did: ... suggestions = list(list(unicode(grepout.read(), "UTF-8"))[2:]) ... suggestions contains a list of Unicode characters. Fine. suggestions[3] etc. can I insert in TM's document perfectly. But: result = dialog.menu(suggestions) fails. Did I something wrong or is this an issue of dialog.py? Many thanks in advance, --Hans

Transcribing with AppleScript?

by Alexy Khrabrov

Greetings -- when looking around to assemble a transcribing system for Mac, I've found a very cool solution at O'Reilly's Digital Media, by David Battino: http://digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2005/03/09/transcriber.html It consists of AppleScripts for Tex-Edit Plus, a speech-capable editor also supporting AppleScript. The scripts to rewind and replay are provided in the article, names ending in function keys like _F10 -- that's how Tex-Edit assigns keys to them. What does it take to adapt them to TextMate -- where's I put them, etc.? Cheers, Alexy

Showing all available commands of a bundle in a drop-down window

by Martin Palma

Hello, is there a way in Textmate during editing a file to open a "helper" window (something like in the subversion bundle when i hit shift+ctrl+a) where the exact menu entries of all commands are listed which are available for the current language. I mean to display the same menu which appears when I go to Bundles > LaTeX (for example) so that I can browse with the arrow keys through the commands. Bye, Martin

AS3 Commenting Style

by Gaby Vanhegan

I recall this being discussed before but searching for the phrase "comments" on Google matches pretty much every blog out there, so no joy. I wish to modify the commenting style in the AS3 bundle from this: /* * Comment in here, everything left aligned, huge tab in there! */ To this: /* * Comment in here, one space before, not a tab after * Final line leaves all *'s nicely lined up */ I have tried searching through the AS3 bundle for anything relating to comments but I must be looking in the wrong places. It'll be some tiny tweak to a regex, I hope. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Many thanks! Gaby -- Uganda Maximum - Enemy of the English Thrust http://www.playr.co.uk/

Does a clickable xml outline exist (like jedit sidekick or eclipse outline)?

by Rick

For editing xml, I'm really missing a clickable outliner of the xml document that lets me easily jump to different nodes. I know TextMate isn't an IDE but I would love this functionality (it's in jedit as well as part of the sidekick plugin.) Here's a screen shot of Eclipse's outline view of an xml document http://img.skitch.com/20080528-f34dyh22e7sm7j7h218ymaqtxm.jpg It doesn't look like xmlMate bundle has this kind of functionality. Does it exist in some other bundle out there? Thanks -- Rick

Feature Request: Copy the content of a tooltip into the clipboard

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, I do not know if this request is a general one, but in the past it often happens to me that I want to get the content of a tooltip in order to do something with it. A simple example is the output of "Statistics of Doc/Sel". Sometimes I want to insert that info into my document. [The same for the HTML tooltip (?)] Is there a way to provide such a functionality? Now I do the following: Change the command's output behaviour to "Create New Doc", invoke the command again, and reset the command's output behaviour. But this is a bit annoying. Of course, to find a proper key/mouse event could be a bit tricky. All key events are bound to text document except for ESC. Thus my question is: Does anyone have an idea? Cheers, --Hans

AS2- How do I target my root MC when using MTASC?

by Alistair Colling

Hiya, I've started compiling using MTASC from Textmate using the 'Build with MTASC' option. I'm using the XTraceTest.as file (at the bottom) and it compiles great. What I can't figure out is how to target the Stage from my class, if I have movieclips on there that I want to target for example. I can target the _root but this isn't ideal. Any suggestions much appreciated Cheers :) Ali import com.mab.util.debug; class XTraceTest extends MovieClip{ static function main() { debug.waitForSocketConnection = true; debug.initSocket("127.0.0.1"); debug.trace("Yo, whaz upppppp:?"); debug.trace("This is a really really really really really really really really really really really long string"); debug.trace("[DEBUG] This is a debug string"); debug.trace("[WARN] This is a warning"); debug.trace("[NORMAL] This is a normal formatter string"); debug.trace("[CRITICAL] This is a critical warning"); for(var a = 0; a < 10; a++) {//say hi 10 times debug.trace("Hi server!

New LaTeX sectioning structure

by Will Robertson

Hi, I've been playing around recently with developing a different technique for sectioning in LaTeX; put simply, instead of writing \section{} ... \subsection{} ... \subsection{} ... \subsubsection{} ... you write \begin{sect}{} ... \begin{sect}{} ... \end{sect} \begin{sect}{} ... \begin{sect}{} ... \end{sect} \end{sect} \end{sect} I'm not 100% convinced that this is an easier way to write than LaTeX's absolute method as opposed to this sort of relative one, but I'm willing to give it a try for my thesis to see how it works out. The advantages are that folding is more easily supported :) and that it's much easier to move sections around without having to search/ replace all of the \\(sub){0,2}section commands. But here's the thing...I know it would take you guys orders of magnitude less time than it would take me to adjust the LaTeX bundle to integrate this structure into it. (Starred sections look like \begin{sect*}{} and optional ToC section titles are with \begin{sect} [toctitle]{...}.) All I'm really missing is the nice outlining features. Is this an easy change to make to the bundle? Many thanks, Will Robertson

TextMate hangs when editing an ActionScript3 file

I've got a project that I was previously working on in FlexBuilder, and I have managed to get that to build and run through TextMate. I can open mxml files and make changes absolutely fine there, but if I go into a .as file and try to make any sort of alteration then TextMate hangs and I have to Force Quit.

Mercurial Bundle shows status only for the current open file

by Thomas

Hi list, I have just installed the Mercurial Bundle, and I have a little problem. Let's say I have a project, and 2 files have been edited since the last commit. When I check it at the command line, I see the two "M" markers for the 2 files. But inside textmate, it is like the "hg status" command only applies to the file I am currently viewing, so I only get the "M" for the file I am viewing. And if I am viewing a file that hasn't ben changed, I don't see anything at all. Is there some special setup that I might have missed? I have saved my project as "a project" in textmate. I open it using project.tmproj file. I saw from the help, that if the file doesn't belong to a project, it is checked alone. Is it a problem if my project files are actually a symlink to a another repository that lives in /var/www? Best regards,

new bundle from Sweave and markdown

by baptiste auguie

Hi textmates, A while ago I was asking about mixing R and markdown in a similar way Sweave uses LaTeX to document R codes. It turns out the "brew" package (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-packages/2007/000327.html) can make this very easy: any text outside markers in the document is unprocessed by R and returned unchanged, while R code chunks inside some special tags is run by R (creating graphics, etc...). This combined with Multimarkdown provides a very powerful workflow (by-passing the latex syntax and long compilation time I find overly intruding in Sweave). Obviously, I'd love to have a custom syntax highlighting to go with this new approach. It would be heavily based on Sweave's bundle, with only a few differences: 1) Multimarkdown is to be used as the normal text syntax (conditional syntax highlighting and commands) 2) the "@" and "<< >>" delimiters are now replaced by "<%" ( 3) instead of calling latex, the perl script for multimardown could be used ) I've tried to tweak the Sweave bundle, but I don't really understand the code to be honest: i think i was too naive in thinking that changing sweave to "breweave" and text.tex.latex to text.html.markdown.multimarkdown everywhere could work. Is there some sort of guidelines I should follow to modify the Sweave bundle? Would this be fairly doable by a novice in Ruby and TM macros?

toggling pairs as in VI

by Peter Rossi

I am a new registered user to textmate. I realize that textmate implements automatic pairing of delimiters such as parentheses. However, this does not prevent you from removing one of the paired parentheses etc during the editing process. In vi, I would use ³%² to toggle between open and close delimiters to debug syntax. I can¹t find a similar feature in textmate. I wonder if someone has written a macro to implement this. or am I missing a feature? Is this specific to a bundle? I am using the R and C bundles. thanks! peter r

Find Dialog - History List - keyboard "problem"

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, I run TM 1.5.7 (1464) on 10.5.2 ppc. I'm a keyboard person. If I open the standard Find Dialog and I would like to choose a previous used Find pattern, I press ARROW-DOWN to open the history list; then I go to my desired pattern; and finally to select it I press ENTER or RETURN. But pressing ENTER/RETURN not only selects my pattern but also starts the Find/Replace process, which can be a bit annoying caused by the issue that I didn't choose my replace pattern yet. Is there a way in TM 1 or TM 2 to get rid of the "tiny problem"? Meaning, if the history list is open ENTER/RETURN _only_ selects the list item? Many thanks, Hans

Problems with \cite-items

by Niels Kobschaetzki

Hi! I have a strange problem lately when I compile tex-files (actually I can't say how "new" the problem is because I didn't compile a tex-file for a longer time now): When I compile a file with a bibliograpy the cite-fields won't get filled out. Let's say I have a bib-item with the bibkey test:2007sf (authors last name test, year 2007) and I write for example \cite[p. 45]{test:2007sf} it will compile to (?, p. 45). In the log-file stands that the item cannot be found in the bbl-file. Looking into the bbl-file the item is there. Even several recompiles won't work. But if I compile the file with TeXShop everything works as expected. A re-compile with TextMate will then also compile as expected. If I introduce new items via \cite the same problem as before occurs. I use TM 1.5.7 (1464) and update my bundles regularly via svn. The TeX-distributions I am using are gwTeX and TeXLive 2007 and I use Latexmk.pl for compiling my files with TM which uses pdflatex (but with latex the same problem occurs). Any ideas what's happening here? Niels

LaTeX change current environment command

by Daniel Grady

The "Change Current" command in the LaTeX Bundle seems to always select the outermost environment rather than the innermost. For example, if the caret is on the line with the equation in the following: \begin{enumerate} \item \begin{equation} f(x) = x \end{equation} \end{enumerate} I would expect that hitting Control-Option-E would let me change the equation environment to something else, but instead it selects the enumerate environment. Is there a way to change this? Thanks for any help! -Daniel

LaTeX Cite completion

by kbj＠linguist.umass.edu

I am new to TextMate, and am using it for LaTeX, and finding it loads of fun. I can't seem to get cite completion to work, however. If I put the caret inside a \cite{} command, along with some text, and press escape, it does complete the citation and cycle through my bibtex database. But if I press option-esc, it gives me an error message in a tooltip. (The error declares that it cannot find my bibtex database.) I'm expecting it to give me a menu of citation choices. I have a standard MacTeX setup, running on a MacBook under OS 10.5.2. My bibtex database is found in ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bib. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Kyle

right margin indicator

by Thomas Krajacic

I have to develop with someone else's styleguide and it requires to break every line at 80 characters. Is it possible to get any visual clue where r.g. 80 columns are?(I mean a vertical line like most texteditors have... not the column number on the bottom) Would be nice to have that feature, since the "right margin indicator" as is present in textmate is pretty useless I think. It only shows where the window is larger than the rightmost column fully visible?(What is it for anyway?) Maybe I am just missing something... Thomas

Reformat comment command

by Alan Schussman

As I set up Reformat Comment commands for the languages I use most frequently (LaTeX and R), it occurred to me that maybe there's a way to make a single call to rubywrap more generic, so that we don't need a command per bundle. This is the result: #!/usr/bin/env ruby $LOAD_PATH << "#{ENV["TM_SUPPORT_PATH"]}/lib" require "escape" scope = ENV["TM_SCOPE"] case scope when /comment\.(block|line)\.number-sign\./ cstring = "# " when /comment\.(block|line)\.percentage\./ cstring = "% " end flags = "" flags += " -p \"#{cstring}\" " flags += " --retabify" if ENV["TM_SOFT_TABS"] == "NO" text =`echo -n "#{e_as(STDIN.read).gsub(/[$`]/, '\\\\\0')}" | ruby "# {ENV["TM_SUPPORT_PATH"]}/bin/rubywrap.rb" #{flags}` print e_sn(text) The parameters are the same as the current command, with the exception of scope, which I set to "comment.line, comment.block". I also added a gsub to the command because it was eating latex math and R symbols ($). There's probably a better solution to that. This seems to work for me, and should be extended easily by adding lines to the case statement for other languages. One advantage is that by specifying the comment character based on the scope, it ought to work for anything; it catches comments for both bash and perl, for instance, without any extra effort. I think it's kind of cool. -Alan

Changes to running Ruby and Python scripts.

Hi all, I have made some changes to the way that scripts are run. To accommodate this I had to update the Ruby and Python bundles to be compatible (it's a change for the better). If you update either of these bundles, you are going to have to update Support as well if you want the Run (⌘R) commands to work. I do apologise for any inconvenience, but it is for the best. LD.

Is TM memory hog? 10MB text file makes TM use 564MB of RAM

by Adam Strzelecki

Hello, I just want to ask if anybody can confirm TM taking the 564MB physical (1.3GB VM) with this simple test: $ otool -tv /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/MacOS/TextMate > /tmp/ tm.s /tmp/tm.s is ~11MB Close TM, and run: $ mate /tmp/tm.s Open Activity Monitor and check TM memory usage. It means if I open 3 such files I'm out of my RAM. This is really nothing good. I'd accept 1:5 filesize/mem usage ratio, but 1:50 is kind too much. Would it be any better in TM 2.0? I hope we can try some beta soon. Regards, -- Adam Strzelecki |: nanoant.com :|

New ruby method for opening processes.

by Luke Daley

Hi again, I have added process.rb to Support/lib. It has a single method, TextMate::Process.run() that can be used to gracefully handle opening processes and capturing their output. I would encourage everyone to use it if you are scripting processes. Especially if you want the process to take advantage of the interactive input features which should be released sometime in the near future. If processes are opened with this method, then they should benefit from any other features that are added for dealing with processes over time. There is a blurb in the file on how to use it. Would be interested to hear any comments you might have on it. Just to clarify the implication of this… In the next release of TM on (once the bundles have been updated to use TextMate::Process.open()) whenever a process requests input, a dialog will be presented to the user giving them a chance to enter input. The classic use case for this is the Subversion bundle. No more never ending commits while svn is waiting for you to enter your credentials. LD.

Javascript indentation

by Nate Cavanaugh

Hi all, I've tried searching for this, and my google-fu is weak. Does anyone know how I would be able to change the indentation behavior for just parenthesis in Javascript? Basically, our code convention is so that when you have multiple arguments on new lines (for instance, passing an anonymous function as a closure), the closing parenthesis aligns to whatever the current tabbing level is. Currently, the curly brackets do this now, and would like to mimic the behavior, but can't make heads or tails of doing it with the current indentation patterns. Here's what I would like: var xyz = ( \t ) Here's how it actually currently is: var xyz = ( \t) Here are my current indenation rules, could anyone help me get what I'm looking for, or have I been looking in the wrong place? { decreaseIndentPattern = '^(.*\*/)?\s*(\}|\))([^{]*\{)?([;,]?\s*|\.[^{]*|\s*\)[;\s]*)$'; increaseIndentPattern = '^.*(\{[^}"'']*|\([^)"'']*)$'; } Thanks in advance all! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Javascript-indentation-tp16985640p16985640.html Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[LaTeX]Project-wise engine setting

by Édouard Gilbert

Hi, I’ve been looking through the bundle help, but I haven’t been able to find any information about my problem. While I am usually using pdflatex to compile my files, I’m currently working on a project containing a little pstricks. As we’re several people working on the file, I’fd rather avoid using %! comments in the beginning of the file. I was thus wondering if there was some way to set a project-wise environment variable to override the default engine. Thank you very much, Édouard GILBERT edouard.gilbert(a)gmail.com

Clean bookmarks in a file

by guerom00

Hello everyone :) Often, bookmarks accumulate in my files and soon enough, well there's too much of them and it becomes tedious to jump to the one I want :-D I don't know if it is possible for the time being but I would like to be able to delete all bookmarks from a file, to clean completely the file.

A GitMate? Sharing the same keyboard shortcut for SVN, GIT..

by Adam Strzelecki

Hi, I want to ask if there's anything like GitMate that does folder icons same as SVNMate? 2nd thing is if it would be possible to share same shortcut ⌃⇧A for SVN, GIT and all versioning bundles. Since they are exclusive -> folder may either contain just .git or .svn subfolder, the ⌃⇧A menu could display/trigger its items relatively to presence of those folders somehow.

Double-click and option-arrow have started behaving strangely

by Michael Glassford

The behavior of double-click and option-arrow have recently changed for me (only in TextMate), and I'm finding the new behavior really annoying. For example, if I have the following Python code: def my_function(parameter_name, defaults=None): #This is a test + another test ... ...then, 1) if I double-click on the "my" part of the function name, it select the string "def my"; 2) if I double-click on the word "test", it selects "This is a test ". Previously, #1 would have selected either "my" or "my_function" (I forget which) and, #2 would have selected only the word "test". The option-left-arrow and option-right_arrow keys use similar "word" breaks when moving the cursor: if the cursor is in the word "test", for instance, option-left-arrow moves it to the beginning of the word "This". It's not just a Python change, either. If I have the following text: ALTER TABLE `my_table_name` MODIFY COLUMN `column_name` FLOAT NOT NULL; ...then double-clicking on the word "MODIFY" selects " MODIFY COLUMN ", for instance. What might have changed to cause this annoying behavior, and how do I fix it? I'd appreciate any suggestions, Mike

SVNMate looses svn-managed folder badges, when they contain unmanaged file

by Adam Strzelecki

Hello, This report is mostly to Ciarán, who deserve great thanks for making great TM plugin. I've reported this problem on http://ciaranwal.sh/2007/12/07/svnmate-update-2 But since there's no response I believe Ciarán might missed that, so I just want to report that some of the folders and files that are supposed to be under SVN control have no badges at all. This happens when SVN controlled folder contains the unmanaged file (out of version control) + few other files under version control, folder badge is missing (removed), also parent folder looses badge too. IMHO there’s something wrong with badge inheritance. Also there’s missing badge for files marked as “!” (svn status) and when there’s such a file in the folder all other SVN files loose badges.

Textmate Freezes when a Subversion project contains a symlink pointing to itself

by joeowen

My Subversion project contains a few symlinks that point to the same directory the symlinks are in. When I try to add that svn directory to a Textmate project by dragging the folder into the project window, it freezes Textmate. When I remove the symlinks before dragging the directory into the project, it's fine. However, when I do a Subversion update on the entire project, and the deleted symlinks get brought back down... it immediately freezes. Is there some way to instruct Textmate handle this apparent endless loop more gracefully?

Feature Req. - Select Current Scope via Double Click?

by shin kurokawa

I know about the shortcut for 'current scope', but I'd like to see an optional "double click to select current scope" thing similar to how Xcode does it. (Or, is there already some way to bind a double-click to an user-defined action somehow?) BTW, there seems to be a lot of cases in Textmate where a scope is not selected correctly via Select -> Current Scope. Seems to be happening in large nested blocks (cpp). -Shin

Saving the layout of windows for further

by Reinaldo

Hi Guys. I work a lot with Textmate, almost exclusively, in my MAC 24inch. In my work, I deal with several textmate windows spread on my desktop, so I organise them as I like. Sometimes, I need to close the all or some windows (independent windows and some projects spread on my desktop). Unfortunately, when I need to open the last windows, I have arrange them again. My question is: Can I save the layout? Thx a lot and congratulations.

Inserting Tab Stops inside of Conditional Insertion

by Quine

I am trying to make a snippet for easy writing of Effective Uniform Annual Worth calculations which look something like this: EUAW = (Yearly Benefit + Salvage Value*[A/F, $5%, $6]) - (Yearly Cost + Initial Cost*[A/P, $10%, $11]) = [same thing but with [] expressions replaced by table lookups i do by hand] This is the snippet I've crafted for this (and to learn how to use conditionals in snippets in general): EUAW($1) = (${2:Yearly Benefit}${3: + ${4:Salvage Value}[A/F, $5%, $6]}) - (${7:Yearly Cost}${8: + ${9:Initial Cost}[A/P, $10%, $11]}) = ${14:($2${4/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.)/}$12) - ($7${9/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.)/}$13)} That fills in everything, with appropriate mirroring, with one exception. I want the text that's inserted if Salvage Value or Initial Cost are not removed to include a tab stop. Thus I want the last line to look, I think, like: = ${14:($2${4/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.${12:Table Lookup Value})/}) - ($7${9/$|(.+)/(?1: + $1*0.${13: Table Lookup Value})/})} So that way if the salvage value/initial cost fields are removed in the first part of the equation, the tab stop won't be there, but otherwise it will so I can fill in the table lookup value. However, I've tried about a dozen things and I can't get it to put that tab stop there. I understand that $12 in that context would refer to the regex subexpression 12, but I have tried escaping all sorts of character combinations to prevent that to no avail. If someone could please tell me how to insert those conditional tab stops in there, I would be most appreciative.

TM 2.0 // visual effects via CoreVideo?

by Dennis Amrouche

Hello Allan, I found this on the net today: http://www.simplehelp.net/2008/04/24/how-to-blurminal-your-os-x-terminal/ Its a hack of the terminal via SIMBL giving transparent backgrounds of Terminal a 'blur effect'. For a certain degree 'blurring backgrounds' improve usability, instead of being GUI-toy only. Also, it would integrate well into GUI changes of OSX that came with Leopard. Could something similar be on the roadmap? BTW: This 'blurring' effect could be accompanied (fo' tha freakanoidz) by effects like 'invertation of the background', making it B/W or applying textures to it. And Im thinking these kinds of effects will be supported by Core technology, having in mind that you stated TM2.0 will be absolutly build on core libraries of OSX 10.5 Leopard :0) Thanks in advance! Dennis ps: But I also have in mind that you dont think TM will have its own background-images, so I consider that you dont put any priority on these GUI things :0(

feature request: mate command line tool should open file as tab in project independent of path

by Thorsten Kohnhorst

hello, don't really know if it's a feature request, bug report or my stupidity: if i have a project opened in textmate like this: ~/project_dir a_file.txt and i call 'mate a_file.txt' from inside the project_dir everything is fine (file opens as tab in project window). but if i call mate from another directory with an absolute or relative path to ~/project_dir/a_file.txt, it opens in a new window which is very unconvenient for me. if there should be a reason (can't imagine one) against this proposal, i could live with a command line option to specify the project's directory. thanks in advance for considering it, yours kodi

Using tab to move out of parentheses (like eclipse) - help please! :)

by Quine

Hey fellow textmates! I'd really really like to replicate something like eclipse's ability to hit tab to move outside parentheses. However, all I really want to do is be able to hit tab to move from |) to )| outside parens, I don't really even need it to work when the cursor isn't directly adjacent to the closing paren. I know I can make ( trigger a snippet that does that, but then I lose all the regular functionality. I thought perhaps one could define a scope ('within-parens') for all source code, and then there could be a command or something that checks to see if the next char is a ) and if so advances the cursor past it that'd only work in that scope. More advanced functionality would be great but not really crucial. If anyone could help with this I'd REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

Mercurial bundle - abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!

by Kevin Horton

I've recently starting using mercurial (using v0.9.5), and am using the Mercurial bundle (2 Aug 2007 version - the latest, I think). Sometimes it works great, and sometimes an attempt to use it fails with "abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!". I've searched the list archives, and found one reference to this issue: http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-November/023219.html But I don't understand the discussion, nor how to apply it to my project. How can I create a TextMate project that has files from several different nested directories, without having the Mercurial bundle fail to work? Thanks, -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada

Different behavior for input as Selected Text versus Scope

by Michael Manti

I have written a command to "Reflow comments" in my Stata do files. The command is as follows: #!/usr/bin/env bash sed -E -e 's_^\s*//(.*)_\1_' | # strip leading // and whitespace from each line fmt | # reflow comment text sed -E -e 's_^(.*)_//\1_' # prefix each line with // Input is set to "Selected Text" or "Scope", and output is set to "Replace selected text". If I invoke the command with the cursor in the middle of the following comment: // this is a profoundly silly comment that I'm writing just to test out how to reflow comments // something strange happens when I select the text rather than simply execute it within the comment scope // i wonder what's going on // maybe i'll write to the mailing list I get the desired output: // this is a profoundly silly comment that I'm writing just to test out how to // reflow comments something strange happens when I select the text rather // than simply execute it within the comment scope i wonder what's going on // maybe i'll write to the mailing list However, if I instead select the entire block of text, I get the following mangled result: // this is a profoundly silly comment that I'm writing just to test out how to reflow comments // something strange happens when I select the text rather than simply execute it within the comment scope // i wonder what's going on // maybe i'll write to the mailing list Can anyone explain what causes the differing behavior?

Hi Kai -- This isn't exactly the correct fix, but if you go to Bundles- >Bundle Editor->Edit Languages... and pick the LaTeX->LaTeX syntax definition, down about 1/3rd of the way down, you'll find the place where it is looking for these mathy environments: align|equation|eqnarray | multline|aligned|alignat | split|gather|gathered soon below that, you'll find end = '(?x) (?:\s*) # Optional whitespace If you change the (?:\s*) to (?:.*?) then you can get a sort of approximation of the correct syntax coloring. I really don't quite understand why it works, but the idea was essentially to allow the { that precedes the \end{gathered} to be ignored (it wouldn't have counted as whitespace). In the original formulation, TextMate couldn't find the \end{gathered}, and so just assumes that the environment ends when the document does. This isn't actually the right solution, but it at least keeps you from having the entire body of your document math-colored. The symptom of why this isn't the right solution is that everything following \begin{gathered} (including the closing brace of the first argument to \newenvironment, as well as anything from then on until just before the line containing \end{gathered}) is math colored. Ideally, the LaTeX bundle would be able to handle \(re)newenvironment specially, since each of the two arguments to these commands will almost always contain a lone \begin or \end, and scope of any mathification should presumably be restricted to the argument itself. But I haven't got a clue how to approach this the "right" way. -Paul

Latex: should i be getting "There was a problem reading the preferences file, continuing with defaults"?

by Darren Croton

Hi. I've recently moved from emacs to TextMate and am enjoying the shift. When i first tested it, the Latex bundle option "Typeset & View" worked fine. However that was short lived, and a week later i now get "There was a problem reading the preferences file, continuing with defaults". I've noticed other people have experienced this before, and the previous posts on the subject seem to say that this is a problem with the python plist parser under Tiger, but that Leopard should be fine. However i'm using 10.5.2 and the latest version of vanilla TextMate (freshly downloaded), running on a PPC G4. I have also freshly installed teTex from macports which works fine both in emacs and from the command line. Can anyone suggest where to begin? Thanks.

Latex Typeset and View problems

by Sean McDaniel

Hi folks. I have a problem with "typeset and view" with the latex bundle. It used to work; now it doesn't. Whenever I 'typeset and view' the display window doesn't display the pdf. The progress wheel spins indefinitely. I tried changing the shell variable TM_LATEX_VIEWER to another pdf viewer ('preview') from my previous choice of 'TeXniscope' but that didn't help. The latex engine is working, because I get the final pdf in my directory, i just can't see the nice quick preview with cmd-R. Any suggestions? May it be a problem with Acrobat? The display window, while trying to perform its fruitless display, shows an Acrobat icon.

Keystroke characters display is heavily condensed in TM

Since I found this: http://blog.macromates.com/2006/multi-stroke-key-bindings/ I'm using it a lot, and it is really nicer to type ⌘A than Cmd-A, when writing all documentation, support mails etc. I've tried to use those ⌘⇧⌥← when editing some markdown blog post content, and I was quite surprised that TM displays them heavily condensed, making them totally unreadable. I tried with few fixed-width fonts, nothing helps. Is there any way to cure that? Cheers, -- Adam Strzelecki |: nanoant.com :|

Docstring Formatting for Python Bundle

by Nithin Reddy

Hello, I'm new to the Python Bundle in TextMate and was wondering how one would go about formatting the docstrings in Python. The traditional CTRL-Q did not work correctly. I then opened up the Bundle editor and added the "string.quoted.double.block.python" to the scope of the format "Reformat Comment" command in the Source Bundle. Again, this did not work correctly. I then attempted to create my own command to reformat comment, but when I read what is passed to the script, I get the whole damn document, and not the scope. Thanks in Advance, - Nithin As an interesting side note I attempted to copy the Reformat Comment command and do some alterations to it, but for some reason, this is not set: ENV["TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"]. I wonder why it's set in the Source Bundle, but not in my own Bundle...

Hi all, I really having trouble with TM. For some reason TM does not consider the % sign within LaTeX. This means I get a lot of error messages. If I comment out some included file (e.g. %\input{history}) TM still reads the file and sends me errors like: Latex Error: ./history.tex:6 LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item. The file looks at this point as follows: % \item parindent durch Option halfparskip entfernt Why does that happen and so suddenly and how could I resolve it? Thanks Christian

Ruby bundle Ruby 1.9 compatibility

by Adam Strzelecki

Hi, I'm not sure whether somebody has asked this before, but what is the current status of Ruby bundle compatibility with 1.9, at least for execution in TM preview window? I'm trying to execute simple ruby script with ⌘R: > #!/usr/local/bin/ruby-1.9 > puts "Ala ma kota".reverse I get: > RubyMate r8136 running Ruby r1.9.0 (/usr/local/bin/ruby-1.9) >>> > test.rb > :0:in `require': /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/ > Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle/Support/RubyMate/catch_exception.rb:13: > invalid multibyte char (SyntaxError) > /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ > Ruby.tmbundle/Support/RubyMate/catch_exception.rb:13: invalid > multibyte char > /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/ > Ruby.tmbundle/Support/RubyMate/catch_exception.rb:13: syntax error, > unexpected $end, expecting ')' > ...ML e.message.sub(/`(\w+)'/, '‘\1’').sub(/ -- /, ' — ')... > ... ^ > Program exited. AFAIK 1.9 is getting closer towards stable release, so the final syntax, and for sure it is much faster than 1.8, so for executing some simple tasks but time consuming tasks it may be a good alternative to 1.8.

balance braces

by Artie Ziff

Greetings, When I google the two terms "bbedit balance" (without the quotes) and the resulting search ranks a textmate mailing list post as #1, I start thinking, "I wonder if Allan is aware of this?" I checked previous discussions (but only through 2006) to see if anything had developed in the realm of balancing braces in the way that "the app formerly known as the mac programmers first choice" did, back in the day. And by the looks of things, I see only heavyweight solutions to balance tags, which I believe is way more than I need and possibly not what I want. I also think it's undesirable to download an eval copy of "the app formerly known as the mac programmers first choice" for this feature. Perhaps my Christmas wish will be: Oh please, Oh please, Deliver command b, Under the tree. Cheers! the nameless popular programmers

Lock files in project drawer

by Christian

Hi, When I work with new projects I often orientate on old ones. Therefore I include these old files in the project drawer within my new project. Often I copy something from the old ones. To prevent the old (original) files from being changed during that, is there way to lock it or give only rights for reading to it? Thanks in advance Christian

DIALOG1 or DIALOG2

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, what is the best way to detect whether only DIALOG1 is available or DIALOG2? Up to now I would do this by checking whether the shell variable DIALOG_1 is set. If yes I can use DIALOG2 features, if not I have to use DIALOG1 syntax. But I do not know whether there will be a change in the near future? Thanks, --Hans

Problem with finding libraries using ruby.

by John Hannah

Hi everyone, Well here it goes. I am using TextMate to create ruby code. I can run the scripts from the command line without issue. However when I run the same script from with TextMate using command-R I end up with an error stating it can not find the installed files seen from the command line. I would appreciate any help with figuring this out. Having quite a bit of editing to do in the future I would prefer to remain in the same environment and not have to switch back and forth during the development. John Hannah

Highlighting Found items

by Jorma

Hello - When doing a "Find" within a file, the found item(s) is highlighted but there is not really enough contrast to make it quickly noticeable. I find my myself having to scour over the document to locate where the highlighted word or phrase is. Is there a way to change this, so that when doing a "Find" the found item(s) shows up in yellow (or some other bright color)? I am using the Mac Classic theme... I did not see anything within the preferences for that. Thanks! - Jorma

key binding question

by phil swenson

I recently switched to Mac from Windows.... I have specific keybindings that I want to use. Specifically, I want cmd-y to delete a line, cmd-d to duplicate a line, and shift tab to reverse indent selected lines. In most apps I've been able to get cmd-y and cmd-d to work by adding this to the ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict file "@y" = ("selectLine:", "delete:"); "@d" = ("selectLine:", "copy:"); I don't know how to do the reverse indent. These keystrokes work for most applications, but not for TextMate. I have also tried this file: ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/DefaultKeyBinding.dict Could someone point me in the right direction? thanks phil

Feature Idea: Selectable TM_PROJECT_DIRECTORY

by Luke Daley

Hi all, Just bouncing this idea… I would like to be able to active a directory withtin the project to be the TM_PROJECT_DIRECTORY until deactivated or another directory activated. Use case: With maven it's common to have a master project with lots of modules, sometimes you want to target a command to a particular sub module, not the master module which is the TM project. You could argue that the commands should be smart about using the project drawer selection, but IMO this can be confusing when dealing with multiple selections. Thoughts? LD.

Bundle or Language Grammar for raw PDF syntax?

by dzurn

I have to manipulate some PDF files directly so I was looking for a TextMate Bundle for PDF/FDF files. They have a pretty weird syntax, so I'm not sure which bundle might be useful as a starting point. I have the PDF reference (1,310 pages of excruciating detail) but I'm looking for something simple to at least make some logical sense from this 'non-human-readable' language :) Any pointers to a similar or even a partial bundle would be appreciated.

Throw us a bone?

by Jay Soffian

Allan, I know, I know, 2.0 will be ready when it's ready. But can't you tease us just a little? For example, let's say you have a todo list for 2.0 and you're working your way through it checking off items. Can you tell us what percentage of that list is complete? It wouldn't really give us any idea at all when the thing will be out, since that last 10% can take 90% of the time to develop and we don't really know when you started on 2.0 anyway, nor what percentage of your time is devoted to 2.0. But it would be a nice teaser. (Not that there's anything wrong with 1.5.7...) Fanning the vaporware flames, j. :-)

Filename Extensions

by Steve King

In another thread Allan Odgaard wrote: > TextMate will not search binary files, granted it knows that the file > type is binary. So right-click a file (using the extension you want to > exclude) in the project drawer and select to treat it as binary. That helps, but isn't perfect. For one thing, it can't handle files without an extension, such as executables. If I just open a directory as a project, it's likely to be a mixed bag of source, object, and executable files. It's easy enough to tell TextMate to skip the object (*.o) files, but how do I tell it that the executable named "xyzzy" is binary? There's another quirk related to filename extensions that drives me nuts. For various reasons, I have a lot of files with the extension "*.txt" which actually contain different types of data. We have, for instance, configuration files, SNMP MIB files, and plain ol' text files sharing that extension. I'd like different syntax highlighting rules to be used for each. So I open "foo.txt" and change the language to "MIB". Then I open "bar.txt" and change to "plain text", and so on. It seems that every time I open a file with the *.txt extension I have to fiddle with the language. (Yeah, if it were up to me I'd give all these files different extensions. Unfortunately the naming conventions were established long before I was hired here!) Since the majority of *.txt files I edit actually are plain text, I think it'd be great if I could tell TextMate explicitly, "Treat *.txt as plain text unless I tell you specifically otherwise" instead of having it automatically change the definition of the whole extension whenever I switch. I'd still end up changing types, but at least it'd cut down on how often I'd need to. Bonus points for remembering which full filenames have been manually mapped to something else. What would be even better would be for TextMate to examine the contents of the file as well as the filename to determine what language it is. If the extension is ambiguous, check the first few bytes for a shell shebang line, or an emacs-style modeline, or some other clue as to the type. And I would absolutely swoon if the language definition itself contained a way to specify what to look for, letting TextMate try each language in turn until it found a match. -- Steve King Sr. Software Engineer Arbor Networks +1 734 821 1461 www.arbornetworks.com <http://www.arbornetworks.com/>

Extreme slowness on files with long lines / no carriage returns

by Ian Kershaw

Hi, I've done a basic search on Google but can't find anything specific about a problem I'm having with Textmate, namely handling large textfiles or textfiles with long lines. It's driving me nuts. I'm having to deal with XML and HTML files which have been 'compacted' so there are no carriage returns / line feeds and I want to tidy them up in TextMate so I can make then human readable but TextMate just takes forever to load the files. TextPad on the PC has no problems, but I didn't switch to Mac for my Windows colleagues to point and laugh! :) Seems like a basic capability of text editor that TextMate just can't deal with. Had this been noted before? Is there a fix in the pipeline? Thanks, Ian. -- Ian Kershaw Save paper and the environment. Don't print this email unless necessary.

With Select Bundle Item (ctrl cmd T) I checked and the ctrl shift G is not being used by any other bundle. Not sure what is going on. Best, Mark

Question about Find in Project

Does anyone know if you can save your search results (in Find in Project dialog), as a text file? I tried selecting items in the dialog and copy and pasting into a textmate document, but that doesn't work. I look at the manual online, and it doesn't say anything about saving your search results. It would be nice to get my results into it's own file. My situation is that there are many instances of a particular email address(es) in some webforms, and I'd like to give a nice list (like the dialog has) to someone. Thanks, Kevin

Language Grammar

by Teifion Jordan

Hi I am trying to add a clause to my PHP language grammar that only affects a variable between square brackets/braces, for example it would match $bar from the following $foo[$bar] The language block I have is this var_index = { name = 'variable.other.index.php'; match = '(?x) \[(\$+)[a-zA-Z_\x{7f}-\x{ff}] [a-zA-Z0-9_\x{7f}-\x{ff}]*?\b\]'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.variable.php'; }; }; }; The problem is that it affects the square brackets/braces as well as the variable inside them. How do I alter it to only affect the variable and not the brackets/braces? Thanks in advance for any help Teifion –––––––––––––––––– http://woarl.com/blog

Git Bundle GUI Tools

by Mark Eli Kalderon

Hi, The Git bundle is great, but the GUI tools don't seem to be working. View Branch History with Gitk does nothing, though Gitk works from the command line. View history with Gitnub launches two empty GitNub windows. Again nub works properly from the command line. Git Gui does nothing as well. Fine on the command line. I thought it might be a path issue, but running echo $PATH inside of TM with ctrl R shows that the paths are fine... Others on the irc have the same problem. Best, Mark

Exporting bundles

by Paul Collins

Hi all, Sorry if this has been asked before, but the instructions on the textmate website don't work for me. If I open up bundle editor and try to drag the bundle called "html" into my finder window, it won't let me. Does anyone know a way of "manually" exporting a bundle, or another alternative. Thanks for any help. Paul

Changing color of selected text?

Is there a way to customize the color of selected text? -- I.e., I want the foreground (text) color to be amber, but black when highlighted (the highlight itself would be another color, e.g., blue). _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself wherever you are.

Groovy bundle Run or Evaluate Expression seems busted in OSX 10.4.11 as well

by Chris Patti

It breaks identically on my Leopard laptop at home. I noticed in Subversion that there's a blurb about it not working in Leopard, and I just thought I'd mention it's broken in Tiger too. Quad G5 2.5Ghz 4G AM Hope this gets resolved soon. I'm doing a bunch of groovy work and having to cut/paste into GroovyConsole is a drag!

DIALOG2 popup Question

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Dear DIALOG2 popup developer, I have a problem ;) I want to insert a character which could have several names like ↓ arrow down ← arrow left ↑ arrow up α greek alpha β greek beta My aim is to write e.g. "arrow" and the popup dialog shows all arrow matches (only the glyph). Then I want to choose one and instead of inserting "arrow" it should insert the chosen glyph. Fine. I tried it and I had partly success. #### First problem: for the suggestions I have to write: {display="↓";match=down;},{display="↓";match=arrow;} this leads, of course, to having two ↓ in the list. Why not write: {display="↓";matches=("down","arrow");} In other words to allow more than one match. #### Second problem: If I want to do that I have to use the options -w for wait, because I want to replace e.g. "arrow" by my chosen glyph. Fine. But if I delete 5 characters to show all suggestions I do not see what I'm writing whereby the popup menu does its job perfectly. #### Third problem: If I type e.g. "arr" the popup dialog finds all matches beginning with "arr". But it would be nice to have an option to show only those items matching exactly. E.g. I have to type "arrow" to show all 'arrow's not only "a" or "ar" etc. ########## Here's a first naïve example command: Input: Selected Text or Word Output: Replace Selected Text Command: RES=$(echo '{suggestions=({display="↓";match=down;}, {display="↓";match=arrow;},{display="↑";match=arrow;}, {display="←";match=arrow;},{display="α";match=greek;}, {display="α";match=alpha;},{display="β";match=greek;}, {display="β";match=beta;});}' | "$DIALOG" popup -iwf "$TM_CURRENT_WORD") RES=$(echo "$RES" | grep display | perl -Xpe 's/.*?display = "(.*?)";/ $1/;s/\\U([0-9A-F]+)/chr(hex($1))/iesg;') echo -n "$RES" My overall aim is to provide a possibility to insert a glyph by looking for words in its Unicode name. Or is the DIALOG2 popup dialog not the right tool for it, meaning should one write its own rountine for that? Or is there a better way to do it? Thanks a lot for any hints in advance! --Hans

how to call CocoaDialog from Ruby?

by Matt Neuburg

In my Ruby script which is called somewhat indirectly, I tried saying `CocoaDialog blahblah` but it didn't work; evidently the indirectness means that I'm not inheriting some path trickery from TM. So I changed it to this: `#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/bin/CocoaDialog.app/Contents/MacOS/CocoaDialog blahblah` That works. But is there a better way? Thx - m. -- matt neuburg, phd = matt(a)tidbits.com, <http://www.tidbits.com/matt/> A fool + a tool + an autorelease pool = cool!

TextMate Wish List

by s.ross

Hi-- This might already be doable in TM, and I just don't know it, but I thought it might be worth mentioning in case it's new: - Tear-off tabs. It would be great if, when working on a set of files in tabs, I could just drag one over to the side, to have it in a new window. Stacking in tabs works great in most cases, but occasionally, it's necessary to see two files side-by-side. - Many others have said this; I'll echo it: Split screen in horizontal, vertical, and both directions (ala Emacs), both to navigate the same file or different files in each pane. - Advance to next tab bindings uses the ` key. Right now, Cmd+Option+- > is the binding, and Cmd+` advances to next window. It would be great if the default binding for advance to next tab was Cmd+Option+` just to clear a few gray cells for other use :) Just a few thoughts.

scriptmate: how to start different tasks from different windows displayed in different HTML windows?

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, imagine I have two documents open for Ruby or R. I wrote some scripts and I know that these scripts are running for a while. I select one doc and press APPLE+R and I switch to the other one and I press APPLE+R. Fine. I see two HTML output windows working. But just in the moment I switched to the second doc to execute it, the first script finished its job. Thus my script from the second doc will be shown in the same HTML window for the first document. And I had no chance to read the result or error message. How can I get rid of it. I thought maybe by naming the HTML windows differently. But what will be the best way? Add a the starting time or the name of my doc window? But this leads to the problem that I want to have one HTML window for one script. I do not want several HTML windows hanging around, I do not know which belongs to which. Is that possible in some way? Many thanks in advance, --Hans

LaTeX bundle keybindings

by Nicolas Schmidt

Hi, I experience a problem with keybindings and the LaTeX bundle. Specifically, the command "Insert Environment Based on Current Word" does not get activated if I hit the corresponding key sequence (but I can still activate it from the menu). Other commands (such as "Insert Command Based on Current Word") work perfectly, however. I checked my Mac OS X keyboard preferences, and the corresponding key sequence does not appear in the keybindings there. Perhaps someone had this problem before, and can enlighten me about this issue. Thanks in advance Nicolas

Paste with indentation

I don't understand why every time I paste something (from external programs or even textmate itself) it always indents it of at least one level. Is it done on purpose? Any way to disable this?

Gem that works in Terminal and doesn't work in TextMate

by Takaaki Kato

Hi, I'm trying to make RubyAMP (not hosted at macromates.com) work. I installed rb-appscript using "sudo gem install rb-appscript", but when I try to run with TextMate and require it in a script, it shows me an error "LoadError: no such file to load ― appscript". In irb, I could get "true" to require 'appscript' irb(main):003:0> require 'rubygems' => true irb(main):004:0> require 'appscript' => true My ruby script is as simple as: p require('rubygems') p require('appscript') and if I run Command-R, it fails to load appscript. The script require 'rubygems' puts Gem.path returns /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/ gems/1.8 /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8 My ruby version is: ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i686- darwin9.2.0] gem version is 1.1.1 The gem is installed at `/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rb- appscript-0.5.1`. I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.2 on an Intel-based MacBook. Looks like I need to add a gem path to TextMate(?) Any help would be appreciated. Takaaki -- Takaaki Kato http://samuraicoder.net

Problem with pdfsync in LaTeX with Skim and Textmate

by Yaniv Stopnitzky

Dear community, I am newly trying out Textmate, which I intend to use primarily with LaTeX, with the hopes of possibly switching permanently from my current text editor, TexShop. But I cannot get either the forward or backward search function of pdfsync to operate with Skim, my preferred viewer. I have already done the following: 1) Selected Skim as my viewer in the Textmate preferences. 2) Selected "View in Skim" from the LaTeX preferences in Textmate. 3) Synced (from inside Skim preferences) with Textmate. 4) Put the pdfsync.sty file in \user\texmf\tex\latex 5) Inserted the \usepackage{pdfsync} in my document. 6) Attempted forward search with "shift-command-click" and backward search with "Show in Viewer (pdfsync)". Interestingly, the .pdfsync file, which is full of numbers that describe the document geometry, is created in the current directory... my understanding is these numbers are what is used to locate one's position in forward and backward search. But the functionality is certainly missing. (Note: I am trying to run all these programs on a PowerPC-based Powerbook G4.) Any assistance in resolving this issue would be GREATLY appreciated. I have scoured the internet and discussion groups in search of an answer, but I cannot seem to fix this error. Thanks in advance, Yaniv

LaTeX Syntax coloring problem

by Kai von Fintel

The minimal test case below shows that something in the parsing of the newenvironment command is throwing off the syntax coloring by the LaTeX bundle, at least on my system (TM 1.5.7 1464 on Leopard). The text in the document is incorrectly parsed as being in a math environment. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \newenvironment{choice} {\left\lbrace\begin{gathered}} {\end{gathered}\right\rbrace} \begin{document} Text incorrectly parsed as being in a math environment. \end{document} ----- Any ideas of how to fix the parsing? -- Kai von Fintel fintel(a)gmail.com

New project with current file?

by Kevin Horton

If I have a single file open, is there an easy way to create a new project with an existing file + the current file? I was hoping to find a menu item, or key combination that will give a file dialog to select new file(s) that would be added to a new project that includes the current file. -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada
