Hi, the tidy feature used to create an xtml compliant document. Since I upgraded to 1.5.5 it now creates an HTML 4.01 doc. How can I change this back to XTML? Thanks, Dave

Saving generated HTML from Markdown

by Lists In＠IDC

So... I wrote this nice document in Markdown. Looks exactly the way I want it in the preview window. Uh...how do I save the generated HTML from within TextMate? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I thought it would be obvious. I could run the markdown.pl script from the command line but that seems unnecessarily convoluted. Thanks, S

Typeset & View (PDF)

by Alain Matthes

Hello:) First I do not understand the changes in this script. Certain users prefer to work with latex but without pstricks, why not make two different scripts. There is a little change in one line : now if [ -s "${PDF}" -a ! "$PDF" -ot "$FILE" ]; then before if [ -s "${PDF}" -a "$PDF" -nt "$FILE" ]; then ..... -ot instead -nt ? why ?

Rspec: Requiring a gem

by Todd Breiholz

I am trying to wrap my mind around the RSpec gem, so I've installed the RSpec bundle. I have a simple spec (see below) that requires the RSCM gem that I have installed. When I run the spec from the command line it runs find, but when I run it from within TextMate using the RSpec bundle I get a load error (No such file to load -- rscm). Do I need to do something special to access my gems from my spec? spec1.rb ======= require 'rscm' context "A CVS log" do specify "should parse a path name" end end Thanks Todd

Workflow question

by lekim raasdnil

Hello all. I have been looking at Textmate and bluntly, have been blown away by the balance it has gotten between a really narrow scope that is done really really really well. For example, "wrap each line" bundle command is just majic! I can't think how many times I have had to do this by hand in Dreamweaver! But I have a question that I am sure someone else has solved that I have not found a solution for on the web. That is, how do you integrate Textmate, with SVN and also manage sites? Now, before ou just hit reply and say "SVNX" let me explain... Dreamweaver has a nice feature, that is, it knows about all the files in the site. if you change the location of a file, change the name of a directory or the name of the file itself within the site, it will run back through the entire site and update every link to that file. This is especially useful when you are re-coding sites and bringing them up to the CSS age. The problem with this, is if you do it, SVN doesn't see it and SVN then complains about missing file X and added file Y when in fact it is a simpel rename X to Y - the end result of this is polution orphans in the SVN database (not a huge problem, unless you are using huge files) Conversly, if you do the move from SVN (svn rename big_picture.jpg little_picture.jpg) then Dreamweaver doesn't know about it and can't find those 101 references to big_picture.jpg that just got moved (of course you can do it with a find/replace, but this does not handle relative links). One obvious solution is move it with SVN, then do a find / replace in textmate. But that doesn't handle relative links (../../../img/myimages/little_picture.jpg being the same as ../myimages/little_picture.jpg) So how do you do it? I think my answer lies in regex..... Does anyone have a solution out there to this particular problem? Regards Mikel

Alt-up/down ... and some other navigation stuff

by Magnus Lie Hetland

Is there any more in-depth explanation anywhere about what alt-up/ down really does? I understand there's some sort of columnar behavior, but when I use it in prose text, it seems to behave in a rather baffling manner to me... I've been looking for an equivalent to the (IMO very useful) ctrl-up/down functionality in Emacs (next paragraph, or, rather, next empty line, basically) and thought perhaps this might work somewhat like that -- and it seems to, if I move to the beginning of the line first. (OK, so the "next paragraph" functionality is a question of its own, I guess; is there something like it?) And while I'm on the topic of navigation (and things I miss from Emacs ;-) -- if I accidentally press cmd-up or down, I completely lose my current location. Any way of "undoing" something like that? (In Emacs I used alt-x x or something like that, to switch position with the position before the navigation.) It's not always that I remember to set a bookmark before this sort of thing -- mainly because it tends to be accidental :-> -- Magnus Lie Hetland http://hetland.org

Completion suddenly not working...

by Magnus Lie Hetland

Sorry if this is a well-known issue, but I couldn't find anything about it... For some reason, completions no longer seem to work in my installation of TextMate. Whether I press the escape button *or* select Completion > Next Completion (or Previous Completion) from the menu, all I gett is the system bell/beep. Does anyone have any ideas about what could have caused this (have I pressed some Forbidden Keyboard Combo™?) or, perhaps, how I could go about figuring it out (or, preferably, even fixing it)? -- Magnus Lie Hetland http://hetland.org

Overloading the tab key

by Steve King

I'm trying to do something a little weird and I'd like some help. It has to do with tabs. The local coding standard is to indent with hard tabs, 8 characters wide. So far so good. But we want to avoid tabs within the line, after the first non-whitespace character. Example: int foo = 1234; // foo int bar = 5678; // bar int foobar = 12345678; // foobar So before the "int" there should be a hard tab, but before the "=" and "//" characters there should just be spaces. I'd like to use the tab key for all of this (ie., <tab> i n t <space> f o o <tab> = 1 2 3 4 ...), changing its behavior from hard tabs to soft tabs depending on where I am within the line. I wrote a command script that will actually do this and bound it to the tab key with Activation: Key Equivalent. But, unfortunately stealing the tab key like this breaks ordinary tab triggers and tabbing between snippet fields. Anyone have suggestions on how overload the tab key without losing what it already does? I'd also accept some way of binding tab triggers and snippets to some other keystroke. -- Steve King, <steve(a)narbat.com>

newbie question - img & image (tab) missing?

by lekim raasdnil

Hi guys! Trying out and loving textmate! Got a question. on the HTML screen cast, it has img(tab) and image(tab) as being bundle items for filling out self closing image tags for HTML. Can't seem to get it working here. I have the document as HTML, did a search in "Select Bundle Item" for "img" and "image" and nothing comes up. In the HTML bundle in the editor, nothing. I can make a entry for it, but from the screen cast it looks like something else is wrong with my setup. Any ideas? Am I missing a key bundle? Thanks! Mikel

Technorati-Snippet?

by Niels Kobschätzki

Hi! I read on the blog-comments that someone has snippets for adding technorati-tags to his blog-post. I would really appreciate it if someone could send me those (and maybe those could be added to the blogging-bundle?). Does the Blogging bundle supports pinging to sites like Technorati?

ActionScript Bundle (MTASC)

by thiago demello bueno

Hi there.... I'm new to the list, but have been keeping tabs on the progress of the AS bundle (and sometimes using either get bundle or svn, i dont get the changes your blog posts mention... but thats another point) I agree with Aaron regarding -main being optional... for a few reasons: a. main sort of binds us to either ignoring some of the benefits of library based movie clips or using _root b. some of my clients, are small studios, designers and other small teams.... some of them have decent actionscript skills some have people on staff that can really rock it.... but forcing a swfmill - mtasc - textmate workflow would simply not work or be more than a little unjust... I use textmate/mtasc/swfmill to improve MY life and workflow, it saves me time, the strictness helps me debug and it doesnt crash, i hate the flash IDE. But months down the line or right before launch on a project I've long since moved on from i hate clients calling me for small pitlling changes pulling me off other projects to do small maintanence tasks, or helpt them tweak a now completed project by nudging things here and there when they or there staff are more than capable. I externalize all content, but still things continually come up that normally any number of them would be able to do themselves via the IDE. Adding a call to my controller class in the flash, populating the library and then compiling it once and never touching the IDE again, works well for me, (i customized my rb file to not call main) this allows my clients to then open the fla if they need to down the road, make their changes and compiling with the ide where they feel more comfortable. But as soon as i share it with someone who has a similar workflow, and the main call loops ad-infinitum. Ok, so i rant a bit, but sharing across workflows is enough reason to make -main optional.... no? Also is there any way to avoid needing to list our classes in the main class? It feels like including code to force compile inside the application really mucks things up in regards to separating build instructions from the code itself... i guess thats an MTASC issue more than an actionscript bundle issue, i tried using -pack to work around this but then I got class redefinition errors on the main class.... cheers, t

Completion Nib

by Thomas Aylott

Ahoy TextMateys… I like the cocoa completion menu thing. Open TextEdit. Type a few letters. Hit option-escape. I want to make a tm_dialog nib that works exactly like that one does. Does anyone know if that is at all possible? I like the current dialog menu that we have with tm_dialog --menu. But it's really not ideal for doing code completion. What would need to happen is that while you're typing you can open up the completion panel, but keep on typing. Escape would banish the panel Up and down would move the selection in the completion list and insert the rest of what you're typing and select it right would banish the list and keep the currently selected completion etc... Is that at all doable? thomas Aylott — subtleGradient — CrazyEgg — sixteenColors

Getting out of incremental search

by Mike Hostetler

When I got the latest TextMate update, I was happy to see that incremental search is put in. That makes me very happy, since Ctrl-s is imprinted in my Emacs-brain. Getting into the incremental search works fine, but when I see something I want to edit, how do I get out of the search mode without using the mouse? Again, copying Emacs, I should just use a cursor key, but instead it seems that I have to use the mouse button. Anyone have another method that I missed? -- Mike Hostetler http://mike.hostetlerhome.com/

Web Preview Displaying Em Sized Text Too Small

by Brooks Seymore

Does the Show Web Preview command in Textmate 1.5.5 (Build 1372) have a problem displaying text sized in ems? For some reason, text set in a style sheet at 0.8 ems doesn't display at the same size as when the page is viewed in the latest versions of Safari, Firefox, Camino and OmniWeb. On a possibly related note: does TextMate use Webkit for Web Preview and, if so, is it possible to have TextMate use a nightly WebKit build instead of the version Safari is based on? I've searched the archives and couldn't locate any other discussions about this. Brooks

tm_dialog: Populating a dropdown.

by Ale Muñoz

Hi there, is there any way of populating a dropdown with a Hash/Array from Ruby, using tm_dialog? I'm using a custom Nib, but I don't have too much experience with Interface Builder. Dummy code: categories = ["bar","baz"] dialog = ENV['DIALOG'] plist = { 'title' => "Add your title", 'category' => categories # How do I use this here? }.to_plist str = `#{e_sh dialog} "#{NIBS}/new_message.nib/" -m -p #{e_sh plist}` Any hints will help :) Also... is there any way of calling tm_dialog to load a custom Nib using the Ruby wrapper in dialog.rb?

Blogging Bundle / dateCreated

by Philip Hofstetter

Hi there, today, I was doing the next step in my investigation of why TextMate's Blogging Bundle doesn't really work together with Serendipity. This time, I was after the strange effect around the Date header: Whenever that header is present in the document, it causes s9y to set the creation date to the beginning of the epoch. Aside the fact that it changes the creation date in s9y which is not visible anywhere in the tool besides in the sorting order of entries, which is a flaw in s9y (it's impossible to change the creation date via s9y's interface except by... well creating the entry), this looks like a bug in MovableType actually. Don't ask. Read on. dateCreated is supposed to be passed around as dateTime.iso8601 which in turn is defined as <year><month><day>T<hour>:<minute>:<second> (time in GMT). This is what s9y uses and this is what the rest of the world uses. Except MT, that is. Even though I searched, I found no clear definition of how the date must be formated. In one piece of their sample code, I found this though: <member> <name>dateCreated</name> <value> <dateTime.iso8601> 2005-12-05T21:38:47Z</dateTime.iso8601> </value> </member> .. which is wrong (note the dashes in the date). The blogging bundle defaults to the mt-mode and tries to recreate this flawed format (parse_post in blogging.rb - I wonder what the other T at the end does though) which in turn causes s9y to fail to parse the date correctly and set the time stamp to 0 (which isn't right thing to do, but I'll report that to their forum). Manually setting TM_BLOG_MODE to s9y for example fixes the date problem, but makes one lose comment-toggling-functionality (the ping one currently isn't implemented on s9y's side, but I intend to change that with an upcoming patch). So I created the attached patch bb_s9ydate.diff, which adds a proper s9y mode which basically means it makes blogging.rb use the default date handling, but still provide the comment-toggling features. In addition to attaching the patch, I've also uploaded it here: http://www.lipfi.ch/bb_s9ydate.diff Please consider merging this one too as that date-thing sucks in particular when using TextMate to edit s9y blogs :-) Now I'm off to bug the s9y people about the creation date-problem and about the support for toggling pings via the RPC-Interface :p Thanks for your patience with reading this novel here :-) Philip

tm_dialog v5/v8

by baptiste auguie

Hi, I've been trying to reproduce the steps in the tm_dialog screencast, but failed for some reason: If i call tm_dialog on my test nib file in the Terminal, I get this message: tm_dialog: you have updated the Dialog plug-in to v8 but the tm_dialog tool is still at v5 I'm not quite aware of what I've updated, it's all happened automatically as far as i can tell. Looking at the version, it seems to be "tm_dialog r6545 (Feb 12 2007) ", or possibly "tm_dialog r6021 (2006-11-16)" if I run tm_dialog or tm_dialog_v5 in Textmate (don't know whether I'm supposed to have two of these things installed?) How can I fix this problem?

Nested Transformations in Snippets

by Ed Singleton

Is there a way to do nested transformations in snippets? I want to do something like: class FooFields: [...] foo_form = [...] where the Foo is easily changed. Fields should be converted to form and the whole thing should be converted from CamelCase to under_scored. I can do the underscored convertion, but I can't work out how to do another search and replace as well. I though this might work: class ${1:FooFields}: [...] ${2:${${1/Fields/Form/}/([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:$1_)(?2:\l$2)/g}} = [...] Where the first regex is input to the second regex. But it doesn't work. Instead it doesn't seem to recognise the regex as a regex at all and outputs: class FooFields: [...] {1/Fields/Form//([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:FooFields_)(?2:\l{1/Fields/Form/)/g}} = [...] Whilst writing this I have realised that I can just do: class ${1:Foo}Fields: [...] ${2:${1/([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:$1_)(?2:\l$2)/g}}_form = [...] Which is good enough as a solution, but I'd still like to know if there is a way to solve the problem using nested regexs? Many Thanks Ed

Convert old HTML to XHTML...

by Ron Patterson

Newbie here, please excuse the apparent non-TextMate related question. Has anyone seen a bundle or suggestions on using tidy (or something) to convert old style HTML to newer transitional XHTML without screwing up embedded PHP (or other) code? It seems that by default tidy can really fowl up embedded PHP structures. I have a lot of old PHP-based documents that I'd like to get somewhat brought up- to-date.

LaTeX command completion shortcut

by Édouard Gilbert

Hi every one, I haven't been able to find any post about the topic, but I must admit the number of post containing command and completion is indeed quite impressive. Here is my problem. I'm French and I'm using an azerty keyboard. I can't use the default (command - option - }) “LaTeX command completion based on current word” shortcut. On an azerty keyboard, please note it must be typed (command - option - shift - ‘)’) and that the ‘)’ is located two keys left from the delete key, next to the upper figure ‘0’. Worse, even when I try to change the shortcut to (command - option - shift - ‘)’), it doesn't work. In fact, it looks like the shortcut doesn't trigger a thing. I currently worked around the problem using (command - control - option - ‘)’) 4-fingers “shortcut”, but I'd like to switch back to normal. Do you have any idea of the reason why (command - option - ‘)’) does not work? I've been looking for such a shortcut in TextMate but haven't been able to find one. Thank for your help and my appologies for the potential bad spelling. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/LaTeX-command-completion-shortcut-tf3506038.html#a979… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

XML Indenting

by Nicholas Orr

G;day all, I'm an infrequent TM user, as I spend 90% of my time in FileMaker Pro, but do some occasional work in XSLT. I was wondering if someone could help with an issue with indenting in XML. I've got some code that looks like the following as output in XML : <Style> <Data>Some text Here.</Data> </Style> <Style> <Data>Some text Here. Some more text here.</Data> </Style> This has been indented using the "Indent Selection" option. Obviously I'd like it to work the same on the second set of text as it does on the first. I'm told you can change this via the bundle, but grep and regex are like greek to me. Is this something I can modify, or this maybe intended behaviour? Thanks, Nick

[admin] testmate mailing list digests

by Victor Maurice Faubert

Apologies for using bandwidth on the main mailing list, but my attempt to contact textmate-owner(a)lists.macromates.com bounced with a "not allowed to post" message, though I am subscribed to the list. The message I sent to the owner follows: Hi, Is there any way to get a *daily* digest from the textmate-request list? I am receiving several e-mails each day, all relatively small sized, instead of a single digest per day. Each of these is labelled "textmate Digest" and carries a few messages, rarely more than five to seven. I understand, when the digest reaches a reasonably large size having it split up, but today, so far (and the day is only half over here), I have received digests at 0:19+0000 16K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 14 3:14+0000 20K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 15 6:41+0000 17K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 16 12:00+0000 9K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 17 15:53+0000 15K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 18 That's a total of 77K in five separate messages; looking back over time, it seems as if no digest is ever allowed to grow much over 20K (the largest since I subscribed is 30K and there is only one of those; most are 20K or below). That seems way too low for a *digest*. The digests from the gcc list, for example, are regularly in the 50-80K range, and are much more useful in keeping related topics together than the textmate list is. Thanks in advance for your response. -- Vic

Latex Watch 1.4

by Robin Houston

Here's another snapshot, for those who are interested. I've made it into its own bundle for the moment, for ease of installation. This version should have more robust error handling, and does its best to work with the 3.6.x versions of GV. (Unfortunately they're all pretty buggy — the best version is still 3.5.8 — but it does its best.) Many thanks to Zettt, who went out of his way yesterday to help me identify the problems he was having. PDF support will come in a later version, which I'll probably call 2.0. (You might like to mentally prepend "0." to all these version numbers. This is clearly still alpha code.) Robin

LaTeX Watch

by Robin Houston

Here's a script I hacked together last night. If you're writing something with lots of complicated diagrams (like my thesis, to pick an example at random) then you often have to go through several compile-view-edit cycles before any particular diagram looks right. This involves a lot of tedious waiting. The obvious way to speed it up is to try and reduce the time between making an edit and seeing the results. Hence this script. The idea is that you can 'watch' a LaTeX document, so that whenever you save a change the display is updated as quickly as possible to reflect the change. The script is currently somewhat inflexible in its assumptions. It compiles .tex -> .dvi -> ps, and uses gv as the PostScript viewer. If other people are interested, I can certainly make it more configurable. That's why I'm posting it here. The reason for the aparently-perverse choice of gv as the viewer is that ps2pdf is really, really slow, so if you want a fast cycle – and you're using PostScript specials – you need to view the DVI or PS directly. I don't know a DVI previewer that works with the PostScript specials I use, so that leaves PS. I don't know of anything else for the mac that can display PS as quickly as gv (I'd love to be enlightened here), and gv is very pleasant to use once you get used to its idiosyncratic interface. Anyway, that means you'll need to have X11.app and gv installed for it to work. As I say, this can potentially be changed, but that's the current situation. You also need to have gv in your $PATH. Apart from avoiding PS->PDF conversion, the main trick I use to speed up the update cycle is to build a custom TeX format file for the document. The preamble – i.e. anything before \begin{document} – is compiled into a special format when the file is watched. Thereafter, when the file is updated, the preamble is merely inspected to see whether it has changed. If it hasn't, the previously-generated format is used. Assuming you don't change the preamble very often, this is a big win if you load a lot of large packages. It halves the compile time of the document I'm currently working on. Attached are two files: Watch document.tmcommand A TextMate command that invokes the watcher. Copy this into your favourite bundle. (If you try to watch a file that's already being watched, you're given the option to stop watching it. Alternatively you can just close gv, and it will stop watching. Note that quitting TextMate will *not* stop the watcher.) latex_watch.pl A Perl script that does the real work. This should be placed in the directory Support/bin inside the same bundle that you copied the command into. (You probably need to create that directory.) If something doesn't work, you _should_ get a nice error dialog telling you what went wrong. I'd really appreciate any feedback. I think that, with some more flexibility, something like this could be useful to a lot of people. Robin

subversion usage through NFS

by Jon Hancock

I have an NFS share from my linux server and mount this on my Mac. This NFS share is an svn working copy and its repo is local to the same server. So the svn url is file:///path_to_repo/trunk. If I try to use the subversion bundle in TextMate, it tries to use direct file access to the repo instead of svn+ssh access. Is there a way I can let TextMate know to use svn+ssh for this working copy? thanks, ke han

Default Folder X?

by Stephen Hansen

Does anyone use http://www.stclairsoft.com/DefaultFolderX/? It doesn't work in TextMate's open dialog, but seems to work in every other. That's very... very... very sad, and very, very painful. Anyone know why that might be? Any idea how I might get it to work? The only thing I notice is that TextMate has a 'Show hidden files' option; so wonder if its using a custom dialog instead of the standard one. Thanks in advance. -S

Newbie lost: how to change Textmate search path

by Richard Blumberg

I am unable to use the File/New from Template/Python/* menu item, or to create a new file in an open project, by any of the available means (application File menu, control-click in project drawer, use gear icon menu). I gather, from following several different Google searches, that my problem(s) has/have something to do with the search path that Textmate is using to look for the template files, but I can find no information regarding what I have to change or how I have to change it to make the correct path(s) available to TM. I know that the Python.tmbundle file lives in "/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/", but when I add that directory to my PATH in ~/.bash_profile, that doesn't change anything. I would be really, really grateful for a simple "do it this way" solution to my problem. Thanks. Richard

replace text at the end of a line

by Raphael Villas

Hi everyone, I'm using a regular expression to find groups of text that I need to replace. But instead of replacing the actual text that I have selected, I want to simply append some text to the end of the line that has been returned. For example, if I search in the project, retrieving ten different lines of code, how to do I insert a specific string of text (e.g. "Put this text at the end of the line") at the end of each of those lines? Is there a way to do this? Thanks in advance!

SVN?

by Ethan H. Darling

Everyone/Anyone, I'm new to Textmate (and just about everything else), and I just finished reading the Textmate book (some sections got a thorough once- twice-thrice-over). Very good book, now I'm hooked on Textmate. I'm just an amateur web developer looking to increase my skill and knowledge. Textmate has been a great companion as It allows me to get out of Dreamweaver and into the code, but I find that I have lost some of the "project management" features of Dreamweaver. ie, being able to transparently upload completed development files from within the application. (Sure I can still get it done with Transmit, but it is clunky.) I searched the textmate discussions and wiki and came away with the conclusion that SVN is the answer. Problem is I know nothing about SVN... or where to start. So, my question is... "What is SVN, can I really use it to manage a production website, and what is the best place, resource, book to get information on how to install, configure, and use it?" Sounds dumb right. Well we all have to start somewhere. (I googled it and found more information than I can shake-a-stick at. So I thought that I would ask a smaller community that may better understand my situation and give a little more intelligent mac- oriented feedback.) Thanks, Ethan

Running an AppleScript

by Tim Mansour

So, my copy of JEG2's TextMate book has arrived down under, and I'm really enjoying getting a better understanding of TextMate. Being an avid AppleScripter, this was my first attempt at a bundle command--to look up a selection in a FileMaker database: osascript <<-ENDSCRIPT set title to "${TM_SELECTED_TEXT}" if title ≠ "" then tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced" if not (exists window "HachetteTitles") then open alias "Path:To:My:Database.fp7" set cell "_Search" of layout "Titles" to title do script "Search For Title" set href to cell "_Search" of layout "Titles" set img to cell "_thumb" of layout "Titles" end tell if href ≠ "" then set title to img & href end if return title ENDSCRIPT I know this script method works fine outside of TextMate, but no matter what I do I get errors running it inside TextMate: 31:32: syntax error: Expected “then”, etc. but found unknown token. (-2741) I'd certainly appreciate any help diagnosing this one. -- Tim Mansour <tim(a)neologica.com.au>

Latex Preview with TextMate on Serveraccount

Hi everybody, I have been using Textmate together with PDFView on my powerbook w/ out any problems. Recently I moved my account to Mac OS X Server. And it won't work till then. On the local machine I installed Latex/Textmate/PDFView. A test with Texshop worked w/out any problems. But when I cmd-R in Textmate no preview is shown (the pdf is typesetted correctly, though).

Convert old HTML to XHTML...

by Ron Patterson

Looks like I answered my own question here. It seems that tidy requires ALL PHP start tags to be <?php and not just a <?. Hummm, bummer, but that's ok, I think I can live with that. Thanks and sorry for the bother. Ron ==================== Newbie here, please excuse the apparent non-TextMate related question. Has anyone seen a bundle or suggestions on using tidy (or something) to convert old style HTML to newer transitional XHTML without screwing up embedded PHP (or other) code? It seems that by default tidy can really fowl up embedded PHP structures. I have a lot of old PHP-based documents that I'd like to get somewhat brought up- to-date.

HTML highlighting problems

by porneL

If I write (a perfectly valid HTML4): <div id=foo> TextMate highlights everything up to next quoted string as an ID attribute. The fix for it is to set: end = '(?<=''|")|(?!>)'; for tag-id-attribute in HTML's language definition. There's even no scope for non-quoted attributes. I've managed to add it using back-assertions (?<=[^=]) for attribute and (?<==) for scope of uquoted string. I'm not sure if these are proper solutions - does TM understand something like 'adjacent scopes'? -- regards, porneL

Getting started with the Perforce bundle?

by Daryl Spitzer

I'm new to TextMate, but after reading James Gray's book, I'm eager to become a "power user"... I installed the Perforce bundle (using the GetBundle bundle) and just tried it for the first time. I selected Perforce->Diff With Base with a file open that I've already ran `p4 edit` on in the command-line, and I get: Perforce client error: Connect to server failed; check $P4PORT. TCP connect to perforce failed. perforce: host unknown. I double-checked that $P4PORT is set properly, and I can run Perforce fine from Terminal (and from BBEdit). Do I need to do something else to setup the bundle? (Is there a way to find documentation for bundles that I haven't found yet?) I also noticed that all the key equivalents in the Perforce bundle are "^$". Is this a sign of some kind of problem? -- Daryl

PHP completion preferences

by Rob McBroom

Hello. I'm sure the people that set this up have a better understanding of things than I do, but I'm curious… Why are all the functions listed in the "Completions" preferences and listed in the functions.txt file that's used by the "Completions for Word" command? Couldn't the Completions preferences be changed to something like this: { completionCommand = 'cut -d % -f 1 "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/ functions.txt | grep -i "^$TM_CURRENT_WORD"'; } So the list of functions would only need to be maintained in one place? FWIW, I tried the above, and `"$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/functions.txt` doesn't seem to be pointing the file. I got it to work by giving the explicit complete path to the file, but that's obviously not what we want stored in the preferences by default. Could it be that TM_CURRENT_WORD is defined in the Preferences context, but TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT is not? --- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/> I didn't "switch" to Apple... my OS did.

Set Selection from a tmCommand

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, would it be possible to set a selection in the current document by using a tmCommand? Example: ('|' is indicating the caret position) -This is a te|xt line. I invoke a tmCommand which calculates the starting point of a selection, and it sets the selection to e.g. ('[' and ']' indicate the selection) -This [is a te]xt line. Thanks! Best, Hans

Re: Move the caret to start of line within a TM snippet? (Charilaos Skiadas)

Then you can have the macro have > whatever trigger your snippet was going to have. Thanks, Charilaos (cool idea). Unfortunately, this won't work well in my situation because the point of the snippet is to assign some HTML text to a PHP variable, like this: $myVar = <<<EOQ <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tr align="left" valign="middle"> <td> Data </td> </tr> </table> EOQ; The macro would place the caret to the left of the indented $myVar string, then run my snippet (which would not work properly). Allan's solution looks promising, but I cannot figure out where the place this key in the snippet's plist file: <key>disableOutputAutoIndent</key> <true/> --Cliff

Move the caret to start of line within a TM snippet?

Hi. I have the following TM snippet (scope = source.php, tab trigger = eoq): <<<EOQ ${0} EOQ; My snippet works fine, except: the trailing EOQ needs to always be placed at the beginning of a line. Currently, the trailing EOQ winds up at the same indent position as the beginning "<<EOQ". Does someone know of a way to move the caret to the beginning of a line within a snippet? Alternatively, is it possible to call a macro from a snippet? I know I can build a macro that presses the command and left arrow keys, which will move the caret to the beginning of the line. Thanks in advance. --Cliff

Insert as Snippet: tmCommand versus tmSnippet

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, is there any difference to insert something as snippet by using a normal tmSnippet and tmCommand which is set to the output 'Insert as Snippet' and input 'selected text or line'? My problem: I have a document containing the line: build_cpu=`echo $ac_cv_build | sed 's/^$[^-]*$-$[^-]*$-$.*$$/ 1/'` ; At the end of that line I'd like to insert a snippet '${1:Hallo} World'. If I do it via a tmSnippet it works perfectly. But if I write a tmCommand à la: Command: in=$(cat) caret=$TM_COLUMN_NUMBER-1 lnhead=${in:0:$caret} lnend=${in:$caret} echo -en "$lnhead\${1:Hallo}World$lnend" Output: Insert as Snippet Input: sel. text or line it crashes, meaning TM inserts: 'build_cpu= ; HalloWorld'. Maybe TM has some problems while parsing the line? But as tmSnippet it works? If you change the output to 'Show as Tooltip' the command did the job correctly. I only can guess that if in the line occurs a '$' TM will have problems. And if this is true, what can I do? I already tried to escape all '$' in the variable 'in' but no success. Any hint would be very helpful. The example as tmCommand I attached to this mail. Thanks, Hans

keep it in iso-8859-1

by Danny Krøger

Hi. I'm having some problems with textmate jumping in the encoding. I have e.g. a website which is saved in iso-8859-1 and correctly opened in the same format. I then have some text from a word file that i copy. This text is in danish, so it have some of the danish letters (æøå). When I paste this into the before mentioned document in Textmate, the whole document changes to UTF-8. Because of this when I save it and upload it, all the dansih letters becomes garbage text (because it tries to open it as a iso-8859-1 as I have specified). The same thing happens in Textmate if i try reopen it as iso-8859-1 But is there any reason for Textmate to change the encoding of the document just because I paste some text, and can I avoid it ?

Find/Replace Speed (inserting of many \n)

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, I have a tiny suggestion. For me it is often the case that I have to replace, let's say hex \x0B (TAB INDENTION), with '\n'. If I do it using TM's Find/Replace dialog it takes several minutes for a file with 400 lines and, let's say 4000 occurrences of '\x0B'. Furthermore TM occupies a lot of my CPUs. If I do the same by using the 'Filter-Command' with e.g. 'perl -npe s/ \x0B/\n/g' it only takes a few seconds. I could image that the speed problem arises if the Find/Replace routine has to insert '\n'. Would it make sense to include an option or button within the Find/ Replace dialog, like 'External Replace All' or whatever, to call an external maybe perl/sed/ruby routine to do the job, esp. if I want to insert many NEW LINES? I don't know what kind of disadvantages it would have. Of course, one could write a tmCommand with a dialog to do it (or using the Filter command), but in order to avoid additional typing I would suggest to include such a functionality within TM's Find/ Replace dialog. Esp. for users who don't know the syntax to write such a regular expression would it be helpful, I think. Cheers, Hans

~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles vs. /Library/...

by Daryl Spitzer

I want to contribute some patches to the Perforce bundle, but I need to clear up some confusion first... http://macromates.com/wiki/Bundles/HowToContribute tells me to start by checking out the latest version into ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles. (That's where the Perforce bundle is now, which I downloaded using the GetBundle bundle.) But http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/bundles#installing_a_bundle tells me to create /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles/ and install them there. Then I'm further confused by the following in http://macromates.com/wiki/Bundles/HowToContribute: > Normally it is not recommended that you checkout bundles to the above > location [~/Library/..., I guess], because when you change the bundle > items from inside TextMate, it saves changes to ~/Library/…, > potentially leading to merge conflicts if the files are updated in an > incompatible way on the server. > > If you already have done a full checkout of the repository to /Library > then you can instead do a symbolic link... So what should I do? Should I check out the Perforce bundle to /Library/... or ~/Library/...? Should I ignore the instructions to create a symbolic link, since I haven't done a full checkout to /Library/...? -- Daryl Spitzer

Markdown Bundle link commands are missing

More LaTeX testers wanted

by Charilaos Skiadas

I've tried to make the citation and bibliography commands detect where your installation is, so that you shouldn't have to set any environment variables for those any more. So once again, those brave among you and with no paper deadlines, please remove any special PATH specifications that you had made just for LaTeX TM (likely based on previous recommendations by me), and let me know if the commands still work for you, and if not then also where, to the best of your knowledge, your tex binaries are. (Probably doing: "which kpsewhich" from the terminal should give that to you. Thank you all again for your patience in this transitive period. Haris

Steps for creating a new bundle based on another bundle...

by Ron Patterson

Hi there, I'm fairly new to TextMate and this list has been quite helpful. Hopefully we'll be receiving my copy of the TextMate book today. Thanks James! I do a fair amount of writing in both DokuWiki and WikkaWiki. The DokuWiki bundle is quite handy but I would also like to use it as a basis for a WikkaWiki (WikiEdit) bundle. There not major differences but both syntaxes would be nice. I couldn't quite make out in the manual the best way to go about this. I can make a copy of the bundle package but then what? Thanks in advance for any help, Ron ******************************************************* * Ron Patterson, Email: rpatter(a)asd20.org * * Web Services, Phone: 719.234.1707 * * Academy School District 20, FAX: 719.234.1706 * * Web Site: http://www.asd20.org * *******************************************************

Cscope bundle

by Sacha Arnoud

I have been a long time emacs user and recently discovered TextMate. One of the things I am missing is a "convenient" code navigation tool, a la cscope (find from where a function is called, where the definition of a function is, ...) Maybe there is a built-in/standard way for doing such a thing in TextMate, but didn't find it. I just wrote the first version of a Cscope bundle that : 1. automatically builds a cscope index for files in a project (including projects imported from Xcode) ; 2. allows to find from where a function is called (mapped to Ctrl-C) 3. allows to find where a function is defined (Ctrl-F) Since I am very new to TextMate, I am sure I broke some conventions: comments / ideas for enhancements are welcome. You can download it from here: http://www.box.net/shared/lt1u4tiuj7 Thanks, Sacha

TextMate/Python/Igor Pro

by Paul Nakroshis

I posted the following to MacResearch, with no luck, but I'm hoping there are some Textmate users that might be able to help me: Does anyone have any experience sending data to Igor Pro from python? I'm looking for a way to interface python to Igor Pro. I am using TextMate to write python code that writes a data file. I manually open the file with Igor Pro, set up a plot and then, when I re-run the python script to make a different data file, I want to send an instruction from python to igor to reload a data file, and that way Igor will automatically replot a graph. Apparently one can control Igor Pro via applescript (which I haven't learned yet), and there is a python package called appscript (http://appscript.sourceforge.net/) that can mimic applescript. So, 1) does anyone have a sample applescript that can tell Igor Pro to load a data file? 2) does anyone have an "appscript" (http:// appscript.sourceforge.net/) that would achieve the same end? -paul ________________________________ Dept. of Physics University of Southern Maine http://www.usm.maine.edu/~pauln

Control-L markers

Hello, is it possible to insert a ctrl-L (new page) into the current buffer? And is it possible to make this visible? And can I even use some key to behave as 'go to the next/previous page'? Patrick

OT: Wordpress alternatives?

by Gerd Knops

Hi All, There are quite a few blog experienced folks here so I hope you excuse the OTness: Recently Wordpress has been buffing me: Security issues requiring immediate updates, too much manual labor for updates (especially if you maintain multiple blogs for multiple users on your linux server), upsurge of spam that can't even be stopped by disabling comments... Are there alternatives that address the above issues? Thanks Gerd

Tabbing out of brackets

by Robin Houston

I'm working on a Latex document that uses a lot of complex sub- and superscripts, so I wrote a little snippet _{$1} which is activated by the underscore key (and the corresponding thing for ^, of course). I use this a *lot*, and it has saved my brain a lot of confusion, and my right little finger a lot of wear and tear. But it also has a benefit that I wasn't expecting: when I've finished typing the subscript, I can just press tab to escape from the braces, and continue with the rest of the expression. I find that invaluable, and I've started to get frustrated that the same thing doesn't work with ordinary auto-completed braces, parentheses, etc. Of course I could write a snippet {${1:$TM_SELECTED_TEXT}} and bind it to the { key, but then you don't get the nice feature that deleting the opening brace will delete the closer as well. It would be nice to have the best of both worlds. How about making it possible to tab out of *all* auto-paired thingies, in the way that you can from a snippet? Robin

LaTeX Log language definition

by Robin Houston

TeX flags errors by a line that starts with "! "; but the LaTeX Log format doesn't treat them as anything special so there's no way to make them stand out. Could we change the invalid.illegal definition to the following { name = 'invalid.illegal'; match = '.*Error|^! .*'; }, or something along those lines? And while I'm on the subject, the firstLineMatch seems rather restrictive. Could it be generalised to: firstLineMatch = 'This is (pdfe)?TeXk?, Version '; since not everyone uses non-standard extensions (the 'k' suffix) nor even PDFTeX? Robin

bundle: where to store programs?

by Patrick Gundlach

Hi, I'd like to put my ruby/shell scripts for my bundle on the harddrive. Where should I store them? I'd like to have a place like mybundle.tmbundle/bin But then how would I access the script? Any pre-defined variable for that location, such as $TM_CURRENT_BUNDLE? Patrick

using svn as a storage for bundles

Textmate "backup when saving" problem

by Rudolph van der Merwe

Hi, I'm having trouble getting the "Backup when saving" command documented at http://macromates.com/wiki/Main/Howtos#BackupOnSave to work. I implemented everything as specified, but nothing happens when I Cmd-S (save) a file. I'm suspecting there might be a problem with the environment variables somehow. Has anyone had success with this command? Rudolph

Editor problems with file opened in two windows

by Ed Wong

I've encounter a couple of problems when I work with a file that's opened in two separate windows. First if I select and copy text in one window and past it into the second window, when I return to the first window the selection doesn't disappear when I click somewhere else on the page. I need to cursor over the selection to force a redraw to remove the selection appearance. Second when I perform any sort of editing on one window and Command+` to the second window (and before using the mouse to click on the second window's edit area) the insertion point is moved to the top of the page so that any subsequent keyboard activity results in the page redrawing at the top of page. I then have to relocate the line that I was originally at. This makes any sort of editing between two views of the same file using a keyboard a pretty frustration experience. I'm not going to mention a request for a split window as I think that one's been requested enough in the past. ;-) Thanks, Ed

Re: Prince install

by Laudun John

> Take a look at the screenwriting bundle, which uses Prince for PDF > output. > > http://ollieman.net/screenbundle > > --oliver In fact, it was your work that inspired me to take the next step. If it's okay with you, there are some automations in your ScreenMate piece that I would like to dissect and re-use/adapt for the kind of writing I do -- mostly essays. (I should note that I actually do do some screenwriting, but, since it's for a series of documentary shorts I'm doing with Louisiana Public Broadcasting, most of my screenwriting is in the field, on a notepad while we're driving or while the crew shifts gear around.) On that note, let me say how thankful I am for your work on ScreenMate and James' work on the book and everyone else being so helpful on this list. I don't follow large chunks of the discussion, but I read it all in hopes of some form of intellectual osmosis happening. john

error in Rails:install plugin command - resolved

by Norman Cohen

Hi, Some information for those who are interested in using the textmate footnotes plugin described in the PragProgrammer Textmate book, who have updated ruby recently, and who might be having some problems. I recently updated to Rails 1.2.3 and Ruby 1.8.6 on my intel MacBook Pro. I tried installing the Footnotes plugin for Rails/textmate using the Rails bundle install plugin command and got the following error that started as so: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.7.1/rbconfig.rb:7: ruby lib version (1.8.5) doesn't match executable version (1.8.6) (RuntimeError) After googling extensively, I found the following explanation and fix on the wincent.com site: <http://wincent.com/knowledge-base/ Building_and_installing_Ruby_1.8.6_on_Mac_OS_X_Tiger> It appears that I had previously set the RUBYLIB shell variable in my ~/.bash_profile file to point to: RUBYLIB="/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8:/usr/local/lib/ruby/ site_ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.7.1:/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8:/usr/local/lib /ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.7.1" export RUBYLIB I think I had followed some online recipe a few versions ago to install Ruby and Rails on my computer. So this entry created a mismatch between the correct lib directory for ruby 1.8.6 and the current version of ruby. Removing this line from the .bash_profile fixed the plugin error for me. Hope this helps someone else avoid some frustrations. Norm

drag and drop feature

by Daniel Baldwin

I have not found any documentation on this so I'm asking everyone on this list. How do I change the time delay between selecting text and clicking in the middle of it and being able to drag it? If I click and start to drag I loose my selection. If I wait after clicking for about 2 sec. it will allow me to drag and drop the text selection. This is a really frustrating delay that TextWrangler does not have and slows me down. I'm assuming this is some sort of feature that the devs. thought would be helpful? Is there anyway to turn this "feature/bug" off? Thanks Daniel Baldwin

Hi, I noticed some weird indentation problem when using "Insert as Snippet" as the output for a command. I reduced it to a simple test case (at least I hope): Make a command with Output: "Insert as Snippet" Command: echo -n "$TM_SELECTED_TEXT" Example text: ✂------✂------✂------✂------ - list1 [tab]- indented list2 paragraph 1 paragraph 2 ✂------✂------✂------✂------ If I select the text somewhere in the first line to the end and run the command, nothing changes, which is good. If I select the text somewhere after the tab in the second line to the end I get this: ✂------✂------✂------✂------ - test list [tab]- test indented list [tab]paragraph 1 [tab]paragraph 2 ✂------✂------✂------✂------ If I use "Replace selected text" instead, this doesn't happend. So, if I understand this right: When a command inserts a snippet on a indented line, everything in the snippet is indented. Why? Just in case, I deselected "Re-indent pasted text" in the prefs, still the same. Am I missing something? Thanks -- FredB

prefix , suffix lines ala BBEdit in TextdMate?

by smarks.other

Hi, I was wondering if there's an easy to to prefix or suffix selected lines with a string. Anyone who has used BBEdit will know what I am taking about. I assume there is a way to do this, but I was hoping to avoid regular expressions other overly complex gyrations. Thanks in advance.

Open Document in Running Browsers/Refresh in Firefox

by Nathan Koch

I've found this topic a few times in the archives, but never came up with a definitive answer. I'm using Textmate for basic XHTML/CSS/JavaScript editing and while Camino and Safari happily pop right up when I choose "Open Document in Running Browser(s)" and Refresh when I pick "Refresh Running Browser(s)" but Firefox responds a bit differently. It doesn't respond at all to "Open Document in Running Browser(s)" and Refresh Running Browser(s)" just opens a new, empty, window or tab. It's a bit frustrating as Firefox is my browser of choice for working on sites, thanks of course to the Web Development plugin among others. Any advice?

New: insert Excel table as LaTeX table. (big time saver)

by Alex Mason

Hi all. I've just finished the 0.1 release of a command I've been working on tonight, based on Tom Counsell's (http://tom.counsell.org/view/ ExcelToLatexTableConvertor) excel2latex, that will take an excel table from clipboard (copy from excel. doesn't work for selected text yet.) and run by typing excel[tab] (excel⇥'). It requires that the longtable package is included, but if you're working with tables, you'll probably want that anyway. This isn't perfect, you'll probably want to change the '\begin{longtable}{c c c c c c }' to format the rows how you like, but it seems to work for me. let me know what you think. I know this saves me a lot of time, so I hope it will for you too. Cheers, Al. ☠☢✯☢☠

[Latex] file paths

by Helge Hartmann

Hello! Two Problems on the Latex bundle. I have a project structure like this: -Projectfolder projectmain.tex (master file) -- subfolder1 -- file_1_1.tex -- file_1_2.tex -- subfolder 2 -- file_2_1.tex When I now drag file file_1_2.tex into file_2_1.tex, I get \include{../subfolder1/file_1_2.tex} The problem is, that I´get an error, because the file can not be found. The file path has to be \include{subfolder1/file_1_2.tex} because it depends on the master file. But when I then invoke the command "Show outline", the file file_1_2.tex is not found, because it expects the path as the first statement. Another problem is, that latex does not typeset the files, that where included. Why does the drag command produce a include command? Helge

Different Colors for different error message severities ??? How to ???

by Greg Hauptmann

Hi, Is there a way to setup Textmate (for Ruby on Rails development) such that when I'm "tailing" the error log I will get different line colors for errors based on the severity of the error? Eg - logger.error ('xxx') => RED - logger.warning ('xxx') => ORANGE - etc Thanks in advance Greg

HOWTO: Write powerful snippets

by F. Gabriel Gosselin

Hi, I'm looking for a way to crate a simple snippet so that tab completion: //(tab) will insert CSS comments and wrap any text on the line if applicable. I've got so far as this: /* ${1:${TM_CURRENT_LINE/(^\s+)(.+;)/$2/g}} */ $2 Which when you feed something like: //(tab)some-property: some-value; Produces output: /* some-property: some-value; */ some-property: some-value; What I would like is to delete the second instance. Is there any way? Or, will I just have to settle for selecting the text and create a key equivalent snippet (which means I have one snippet for plain comment and another for wrapping...). Oh and one other question about snippets: in the sequence ${«tab stop»/«regexp»/«format»/«options»} what are the options? I stuck with g because that's what I had seen. thanks in advance, Gabriel

Command to toggle writing to deltas/writing to version-controlled bundle

by Henrik Nyh

For a bundle I'm maintaining, I wanted to be able to easily toggle between having changes written directly to the bundle (so that I can commit them) and having changes written to deltas (so that I can make local customizations that are not committed). I wrote a command for this: http://henrik.nyh.se/2007/03/24/textmate-command-to-toggle-writing-deltas/ I'm sure others have done similar things before, but I couldn't find anything, so I rolled my own, and thought I'd share. If the command does something bad or unnecessary, or if you've solved this problem in a better way, please let me (us) know.

[Latex] source colouring gets confused

by Berndt Farwer

I have lately had to use code that includes \begin{SaveVerbatim}[commandchars=\\\{\},codes={\catcode`$=3 \catcode`^=7}]{guard} $\lnot$busy(phone) \end{SaveVerbatim} The \catcode`$=3 confuses the TextMate's grammar and thus everything that follows is treated at maths in scopes and hence in colouring. Is there an easy solution without messing with the main language definition?

Blogging Bundle / Serendipity / Empty Fields

by Philip Hofstetter

Hi there, after getting nagged at my blog (http://www.gnegg.ch/archives/354- External-blogging-tools.html) to look into why TextMate's Blogging Bundle behaves strangely with Serendipity blogs, I had a look into the problem. Actually, there are two problems, but so far, I've only fixed one (it's getting late here): 1) When you have a Date:-Header in your Posting, s9y will interpret the date wrongly and will assume it to be the beginning of the epoch (1970-01-01). This is problably a flaw in s9y and I'll report it there as soon as I know what's going on. 2) The Pings- and Comments-Headers were ignored and Pings/Comments were turned off regardless of what the headers were set to. This is what I've actually looked into this evening (GMT+1 here): Basically it all comes down to the fact that parse_post (blogging.rb) is unable to cope with empty headers of which s9y produces at least one: s9y always sends an empty mt_convert_breaks-member in the post record and when no tags are defined, it'll also send an empty mt_keywords member. With an unpatched blogging.rb, this will create something like this (ignore the f*ed up date - that's caused by bug 1) above): Type: Blog Post (Markdown) Blog: s9y Post: 1 Title: First entry Date: 1970-01-01 02:00:00 +0100 Keywords: Format: Pings: On Comments: On This causes the parser to stop after the Keywords-header (lines 206/207) which will lead to the following headers to be ignored, thus turning off comments (s9y assumes Comments=off if the information isn't present in the RPC-call). Now I'm not sure if s9y's behaviour is actually legal here (please enlighten me), but I think the blogging bundle should be able to cope with empty fields. There are two possible fixes: One is to fix the fields-parser to make it stop bailing out at empty fields. I've attached bb_fixparser.diff which does that. The other way is to make post_to_document stop adding empty format and keyword fields. bb_skipempty.diff does that. I'm not sure which way is the correct way to go. fixparser has the tendency of working with even more crude blogging engines, while skipempty is what the bundle did so far (look at the handling of mt_tags for example. Anyways. Please consider merging one of the patches to make the blogging bundle work better with serendipity. Thanks Philip

folding request

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi Allan How diffiicult would it be to add an option to the folding system telling it to obey indentation exclusively? With this option, TextMate would become a very nice cataloging tool for removable media: I drag and drop the CD on a TextMate window and the tab-indented list of the content appears. It is already very easy to search such lists, with folding-at-indentations it would be also easy to navigate them. Thanks Piero

Tunnelling SVN

by Matthew Law

Hi, We are evaluating textmate as part of a wider move from PHP to Rails. I have an issue which I hope someone here might be able to help me with... We have a shared linux development server and we each checkout and edit our files on the server remotely either via samba shares or directly by SSHing in. This is so we can preview the changes in our dev sites as we make them. This works OK for the windows guys (they use Tortoise svn and map a network drive to get to their files). I am OK as I am comfortable in the terminal and don't mind SSHing over to the dev server to do any subversion stuff, but we have a couple of designers who have a fear of command lines and want to work strictly within textmate. Running any SVN command from textmate fails because the samba share appears like a local directory and all the SVN commands get screwed up. It then locks their copy and we have to clean up the locks. Is it possible to set up textmate to either tunnel the SVN commands through SSH so they run in the devserver environment as if performed in a dev server shell or switch to using a different network filesystem (SSHFS, maybe?) so that we can edit our files remotely on the development server and use SVN from within TextMate? We'd even consider moving to another open source version control system to fix this as long as there is good support for Mac, Win and linux...

Italics and Bold in Markdown.

by Luke Daley

Hi, Textmate incorrectly labels italicised and bolded text. In the following markdown: "this is s_om_e markdown", 'om' will be tagged as italicised. When converting to HTML, 'om' will not be italicised. I am guessing that the Markdown processor requires that italicised text be surrounded by white space. The same is also true for bolded text. I was able to modify the language grammar to not incorrectly tag the text. My solution is probably quite naive but it did work for me. Can someone with more regex fu vet this and can we get it added to the official bundle please (assuming it should be added and I am not wrong on this). Luke.

PHP/HTML language definition

by Michael Jackson

I've been toying around with the idea of a PHP/HTML language definition. The problem is that when I'm working on a PHP project, I switch back and forth between pure PHP files and PHP/HTML files all the time. As you can imagine, switching the language definition each time to get proper syntax hilighting can get bothersome. It would most likely be a huge bundle and take a lot of work, but I was just wondering if anybody else has found any tricks for this kind of issue before I investigate it further. Thanks, Michael

new error message in GTDalt command with build 1372

by Michael Gilbert

Hi -- A quick request for help... I thought there might be someone knowledgeable here about an error that cropped up for me with the latest build (1372). I apologize in advance is this isn't the sort of thing discussed here or if I should bring this to another forum, but since it just happened NOW, minutes after my update, I thought this might be the place. Anyway, I'm using GTDalt and the context command (shift-@) gives this error after the selection from the dialog: /Users/mcg/Applications/Text/Textmate/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/dialog.rb:138: warning: Insecure world writable dir /Users/mcg/Documents, mode 040756 Any advice.

GTDAlt Date Picker

by Mark Eli Kalderon

I am having a problem with the GTDAlt date picker. The date inserted does not correspond to the date entered. So entering 12/03/2007 gives me 2007-03-11. And entering 31/05/2007 gives me 2007-05-29. While on the topic of the date picker a small issue about the UI. Dates are entered day month year. I think it should be year month day for two reasons: 1. That way it is consistent with what is entered in the file. 2. The date picker defaults to the current date which is now February. Helpfully it doesn't allow you to pick a day not in that month. So to enter in 31/05/2007 I first had to tab ahead to change the month before entering the day (since there are not 31 days in February). The year month day format would avoid this problem. Thanks.

[Pascal Bundle] Better Function Pattern Suggestion

by Ryan Wilcox

Hello all, I use the Pascal bundle quite a bit, and I've been annoyed that it can't tell the difference between declarations/prototypes of functions and definitions of functions. I'll give you that this is tricky - in Pascal they both mostly look the same, and what they are is really determined by the next line (which would be a BEGIN if it was a definition) FUNCTION aTest(varName: theType); However, there is two cases where such a difference can be seen easily: the forward keyword and the external keyword FUNCTION aTest(varName: theType); FORWARD; {a prototype of a function found later in the file} FUNCTION aTest(varName: theType); EXTERNAL; {EXTERNAL is just like C's extern keyword} And, in GPC (the Gnu Pascal Compiler) there's also: FUNCTION aTest(varName: theType); attribute (name = 'aTest'); {You could see this kinda like declaring a prototype in C - functions above this in the file OR outside the file can call this function } Can we make the Pascal bundle use the following regular expression in the meta.function.prototype.pascal scope (so then we can use a preference to turn off their appearance in the symbol list? \b(?i:(function|procedure))\b\s+(\w+(\.\w+)?)($.+?$); (attribute|forward|external) Or other thoughts etc would be appreciated - this could be an inefficient way of doing this.

Python syntax breaks on # in regex string (r'#')

Hi All, I just got the latest build, Version 1.5.5 (1372), and I noticed that the python language syntax is now somewhat broken for comment characters (#) inside regular expression strings r'some regular expression'. like: some_reg_string = r'#' shows up as illegal / incomplete syntax. And e.g. all my code following this line: parentPattern = re.compile(r'^#extends (\w+)\s*$') becomes: source.python meta.function-call.python meta.function-call.arguments.python which is a little confusing. best, dirk ----------------------------- Dirk van Oosterbosch de Wittenstraat 225 1052 AT Amsterdam the Netherlands http://labs.ixopusada.com -----------------------------

Snippet syntax: confused about mirroring

by Robin Houston

If I write the following snippet: ${3:x}${1:$TM_SELECTED_TEXT}$3$2 activate it, then press tab twice so the first 'x' is selected, I would expect what I type to be mirrored in the other 'x' too. Why isn't it? Similarly, ${1:x}${2:y}$1$2 doesn't do what I'd expect: the 'x' is mirrored, but the 'y' is not. What am I missing? Thanks, Robin

Context Bundle

by Paul Nakroshis

Hi, I am a new Textmate user, and this is my first post. My initial interest in Textmate was in using it as a python editor, although as I learn more about it, I am interested in using it for LaTeX and Context. The LaTeX bundle is very nice, though the ConTeXt bundle doesn't seem to have a way to typeset the resulting file (at least as far as I can see.) I have configured TeXShop to use Textmate as an external editor---this works, but it is not as nice as working solely in Textmate. Is anyone is working on a ConTeXt bundle similar in functionality to the LaTeX bundle? Cheers, -paul

scriptmate.rb question

Python bundle question/possible bug...

by Fabry Nicholas F.

> Looking at the diff, the b was previously a <, so the intent was to > convert \< to \b (because of a change in the regexp library), but > accidentally all <’s where converted to b’s. > > I have now reverted this part of r976, better late than never :) Excellent! My first bug report and fix! Most exciting. Please forgive my enthusiasm; I only came to programming in a serious way about a year ago. I was 'inspired' to do so by a custom program my company rolled out that was so astonishingly awful that I felt that I had to demonstrate that better could be done. So, a year later, with 20+ newly purchased yet well worn O'Reilly titles on my shelf, it's nice to be able to start contributing back to projects I like. In addition, I have found another small problem with the Python bundle - it has to do with the way it scopes 'meta.item- access.python' sections. In particular, it gets confused by the end ], and does not recognize it as 'punctuation.definition.arguments.end.python', although it recognizes the lead [ correctly as 'punctuation.definition.arguments.start.python'. For instance, put the following in TextMate as Python, and note the scopes/coloring of the []'s. pairing_name = findNextWord(packet[row])[0] The regexes responsible are below, along with my explanation of the problem and proposed fix: { name = 'meta.item-access.python'; begin = '(?=[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*(?:\.[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*)*\s*\[)'; end = '(\])'; patterns = ( { begin = '(?=[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*(?:\.[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*)*\s* \[)'; end = '(?=\s*\[)'; patterns = ( { include = '#dotted_name'; } ); }, { begin = '(\[)'; end = '(?=\])'; beginCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.arguments.begin.python'; }; }; endCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.arguments.end.python'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = '$base'; } ); contentName = 'meta.item-access.arguments.python'; }, The problem is that the 'meta.item-access.python' begin regex tags a LOCATION, specifically the location of the beginning of the first legit Python dotted name followed by a [, thus correctly allowing the [ itself to be matched within by 'punctuation.definition.arguments.begin.python'. However, the 'meta.item-access.python' end regex tags not the LOCATION of the end ], but the end ] itself, thus preventing 'punctuation.definition.arguments.end.python' from selecting the end ] as it should. In addition, the regex for 'punctuation.definition.arguments.end.python', instead of selecting the end ], selects the LOCATION followed by an end ], which gives it no characters in its scope! My proposed fix swaps the two; both the start and end 'meta.item- access.python' regexes select for LOCATION, and both 'punctuation.definition.arguments.begin.python' and 'punctuation.definition.arguments.end.python' select for the actual CHARACTERS [ and ]. The code is below, and I have tested that it properly scopes the Python constructs now. { name = 'meta.item-access.python'; begin = '(?=[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*(?:\.[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*)*\s*\[)'; end = '(?<=\])'; patterns = ( { begin = '(?=[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*(?:\.[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*)*\s* \[)'; end = '(?=\s*\[)'; patterns = ( { include = '#dotted_name'; } ); }, { begin = '(\[)'; end = '(\])'; beginCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.arguments.begin.python'; }; }; endCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.arguments.end.python'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = '$base'; } ); contentName = 'meta.item-access.arguments.python'; }, ); }, Hope this is helpful - I am (slowly!) looking through the rest of the Python language definition to see if there are any other glitches I can spot. Cheers, Nick

[PATCH] blogging with ssl

by Grant Hollingworth

When connecting to a blog over SSL, various blogging commands (e.g., Fetch Post) will include "warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session" in their output. Net::HTTP generates this warning when its verify_mode hasn't been set. It then defaults to OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE. My patch sets it explicitly to avoid the warning.

Remapping the Option Key (column editing)

by Barron Chugg

I don't work with column editing much at all, but I do instinctively use "select, drag, option key" to copy text. But most of the time my clicking option gets me into column select mode. Is there a way to remap the "select column" off of option so it'll just drag-and-copy for me? Thanks.

how to change font for a "logger*" line??? (e.g. to de-emphasis logging lines in Ruby code)

by Greg Hauptmann

Hi, Any tips on how to change the format of a line of Ruby based on it's content? In particular I was wanting to try deemphasize logging lines (i.e. starting with "logger.*") by setting the text font to a gray. Any ideas/tips would be great. Couldn't seem to see when it would be possible to do this in the bundle manager. Tks Greg

Default color for Embedded Source

by Trevor Harmon

TextMate has a syntax element called "Embedded Source", which is used for things like the lstlisting environment in LaTeX or JavaScript code embedded in HTML. The default background color for this element is a light blue, which is almost identical to the light blue used for selected text. Because of the similarity, I always get confused and think I've inadvertently selected some embedded source. I'm wondering why there is such a similarity between these colors. Was it deliberate (and if so, what was the reason?) or was this an oversight? Trevor

TextMate & LaTeX via MacPorts

by Christopher W. MacMinn

Hey folks - I'm trying to get up-and-running with TextMate, which I will be using primarily for LaTeX-ing, and I'm having some troubles. I've been using LaTeX installed via MacPorts/DarwinPorts for a few months now, so I'd prefer to get TM working with that if possible rather than abandoning it for MacTex (unless there is really and truly a good reason to do so). The main problem I'm having is that when I call the "Insert Label/ Citation Based on Current Word" command, TM spits out "The tex binaries cannot be located!" I assume this means that I have not properly told TM where to find my LaTeX installation, but I can't figure out how to do so. I tried creating a PATH environment variable equal to the output of "echo $PATH" in Terminal, but I don't think it helped. Sorry... either I'm doing something dumb or I'm just not unix-y enough to understand what's going on here. Any suggestions? Thanks very much! Best - Chris MacMinn

Python bundle question/possible bug...

by Fabry Nicholas F.

Hi - I was looking over the Python language definition, and I came upon a regex that I don't understand - or, it might be a bug. The regex is in the FoldingStartMarker: <key>foldingStartMarker</key> <string>^\s*(def|class)\s+([.a-zA-Z0-9_ b]+)\s*($(.*)$)?\s*:|\{\s* $|\(\s*$|\[\s*$|^\s*"""(?=.)(?!.*""")</string> The key mysterious part is right in the first character class, which I believe is designed to pick out the name of the class/def in question: [.a-zA-Z0-9_ b]+ Okay, I get it up until the ' b' part. Essentially, the name of a class or def is a series of characters that are in a-z, A-Z, 0-9, or are '_' or '.' . What's the point of the ' b' part? Was this meant to be '\b', signifying a word boundary? Or is there some deeper meaning to space b that I don't understand? Please forgive if this is not an appropriate place for this question; I am rather new (well, completely and totally new) to the use of mailing lists. Brilliant program, btw - it takes time to appreciate it. Nick

how to highlight all occurances of a given string in the file being viewed???

by Greg Hauptmann

Hi, Is there a way to highlight all occurances (e.g. in yellow say) of a particular piece of text? Say a variable name for example? Ideally also is there a way to, once such a variable is highlighted through-out the file, you can change it in one place and it automatically changes it in real time in other places in the file (I know I had this in Jbuilder).

[Blogging]Problem with cat-Snippet

by Niels Kobschätzki

Hi! Now I sit at my laptop because my other computer is right now not available, my blog is set up here exactly (at least I think so) like at my working-computer and if I use the cat-Snippet from the blogging bundle I get the following behaviour and error: TextMate tries to contact the blog for fetching the items and then I get the error /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/xmlrpc/client.rb:403:in `call': XMLRPC::FaultException (XMLRPC::FaultException) from /tmp/temp_textmate.xQsjEh:27 from /tmp/temp_textmate.xQsjEh:24:in `call' from /Users/nik/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/progress.rb:36:in `call_with_progress' from /Users/nik/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/progress.rb:32:in `call' from /Users/nik/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/progress.rb:43:in `call_with_progress' from /Users/nik/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/progress.rb:40:in `dialog' from /Users/nik/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/progress.rb:40:in `call_with_progress' from /tmp/temp_textmate.xQsjEh:24 Any help appreciated Niels

escape-key for completion in latex

by Claus Haslauer

Hi, I am trying to follow this approach in the latex-help file: In the case where what is expected is a label, then pressing escape will similarly offer all matching labels from the TeX document. Depending on your naming conventions, this could for instance offer a list of all theorems: If the labels for theorems are all of the form thm:labelname, and you have included the colon (:) in the list of word characters in TextMate’s preferences, then pressing escape when the caret is right before the closing brace in \ref{thm} will offer as completion options all labels corresponding to theorems. If there are many matching completions, it is often more convenient to use the pull-down-list versions of the commands, which are triggered by ⌥⎋. I do have ":_" (just a colon and an underscore, no quotations)in the preference pane as Word Characters. Is this ok or do they need to be separated / in quotations / ... ? Neither pressing <escape> nor <escape> + <alt> while the caret is right in front of the closing bracket in latex mode, doesn't do anything. Now, I looked into the bundle editor, into the latex bundle in my installation: 1) <escape> is the key equivalent for bibdesk completion 2) <alt>+<escape> is the key equivalent for "Citation based on Current Word / Selection" AND for "Label Based on Current Word / Selection" --- this seems a little weird to me. Is this how it should be originally? Or have I changed this accidently at some point? I remember a time when hitting <escape> (I think) actually has worked and I used "eqn:" and "fig:" for labeling and referencing equations and figures, respectively. Should the difference between <alt>+<escape> and <escape> only that <alt>+<escape> should offer a pull-down list and hitting <escape> multiple times would move through the possible choices? Is this something that got changed over the releases (I am working with cutting edge)? That leads me to another question: when a bundle gets updated in the bundle repository... do those changes get updated in each new (cutting edge) release or would I check them out and update them as I would with any other "default" bundle? Thanks for your help, Claus

LateXCommandCompletions.rb

by Alain Matthes

Hello:) 1) I know that my use of Latex is different from the majorities of the users because I create especially packages. I need to have a really different completion. I need for example : newcommand renewcommand RequirePackage newcounter setcounter stepcounter newlength etc.. for xkeyval define@cmdkey define@boolkey presetkeys.... for ifthen ifthenelsee etc.... etc... I would like to know the good way to obtain this Is it necessary that I modify LateXCommandCompletions.rb ? 2) But I do not understand why in the LateXCommandCompletions.rb, there are words like pi, Pi, lim etc ... words with 2 or 3 letters ? Which is the interest to complement these words? greetints alain

Category Command w/ Nib

by Brett Terpstra

I don't think there's a default multi-select nib for tm_dialog yet, is there? I used one that I had already created for this, so if it's out of place please switch it out. This should be up to date with the latest specs, the DIALOG environment variable and the previous fallback mods to the cat command. The nib is included and should reside in the nibs folder in the same bundle folder as blogging.rb. Thanks, Brett

Blogging Bundle help

by Edward Crosby

I hope I am sending this correctly. I need assistance with the Blogging Bundle of TextMate. Per the very helpful video I found on the site, I setup the bundle for my WordPress login. After I completed the setup, I made sure I saved it. When I attempted to Fetch Blog and entered my password for the site, I got the below error message and nothing was received: Received Exception:HTTP error: 301 No Post are Available I even attempted to send a blog up to my site and got, basically, the same error message. I was using WordPress 2.0.6 when I first attempted and decided to upgrade WordPress last night to 2.1.2 (mainly because I need to also) to see if that would fix the problem, it did not. Thank you ahead of time for your assistance.

PHP Validation broken in latest update

by Walter Lee Davis

I have been using TM for quite a while, and one of my most-used features is the PHP syntax validation. Immediately after the latest update (to 1.5.5 (1368)) this stopped working. Instead, I see the following lines in place of the error / success readout: dyld: ruby Undefined symbols: _rb_attr_get _rb_attr_get _rb_ll2num _rb_num2ll _rb_string_value I have tried updating Ruby to 1.8.6, and downgrading it to 1.8.4. I have deleted and downloaded a new copy of TM. Nothing helps. I am on 10.3.9 + all patches. Has anyone else seen anything like this? Thanks, Walter

Keep sub-folders from twirling in project pane

by David Chartier

I don't know if I'm using TextMate in a strange way, but: I have an HTML blogging project open with a couple of root folders, and each of those folders have one sub-folder for archive purposes. Every now and then I like to archive posts from the main folder into the sub-folder, but when I do this the sub-folder unfurls - and I really don't want this to happen. Is there any way to stop it? A preference I can check somewhere? Why does it open in the first place; is this behavior useful to some other workflow or language? Thanks for any thoughts - david

[PATCH] checknest.rb screws up if there is more than one opening or closing delimeter on a line

by Robin Houston

I was getting the wrong auto-close \end{...} tags when I pressed apple-option-. in my LaTeX document. The problem turns out to be caused by a bug (or design flaw) in the helper script "$TM_SUPPORT_PATH/bin/checknest.rb", which only recognises a single delimeter per line: in a few places I have a short environment on a single line. I have applied the attached patch to my copy. I admit that I haven't tested it especially thoroughly, but it seems to work for me. I hope this is useful. Robin

custom indentation

by Simon Olsberg

I have started using Textmate for editing c source but seem to be unable to customize the indentation rules to match our code convention Here is an example of I need indentation to work void example_function() { short i, n = 10; for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) { do_something(i); } do_completion(); } I would even be happy to do without the regular c indentation rules, and have tried overriding them with empty patterns, but I still have a problem when I type the semi-colon to complete the do_completion() line as this line will get auto-indented to match the indent level of the loop block. Thanks in advance for any help with this. Simon

Citation Insertion

by Mark Eli Kalderon

I am having trouble with citation insertion in the LaTeX bundle (both the Ref-TeX style and the Insert Citation Based on Current Word). Each issues in a never ending spinning beach ball.

Ruby Auto Complete Not working?

by John Tsombakos

I just updated to the latest cutting edge version, and updated my bundles. I wanted to try the Ruby auto complete, but either I'm doing something wrong, or it just doesn't work. No matter what I try to type, all I get is a tooltip saying "No matches were found". In a Ruby/Rails document, I start typing 'validates' (without the quotes, obviously) and hit Option Escape and get No Matches were found. Is there something else I need to do to get this working?

[LaTeX] Typeset and view command: better respect TS-program option

by Robin Houston

While I'm here, there's an obvious typo in the "LaTeX and view" command, which means it fails to respect the %!TEX TS-program = xelatex directive. I fixed that, and also made it respect 'TS-program=latex', which is supposed to mean that a Latex -> DVI -> PS -> PDF compilation path should be used, rather than PDFTeX's straight-to-PDF compilation. (I need this because I have a package which uses PSTricks. So although PSTricks is being used, the text \usepackage{pstricks} doesn't appear in my actual .tex file.) Patch attached. Robin

Edit in TM: any alternatives to "it's all text" ?

by Pat Maddox

I switched from FF to Safari for a couple days because I really, really liked the edit in TextMate option. However it only lasted for a few days because I like FF a lot more...so I decided to give the "It's all Text" plugin another shot. Hated it. First of all I can't open the editor using my keyboard, and secondly when I save and close my document it doesn't switch back to FF automatically. The edit in TM for Safari does both...are there any alternatives to this IAT plugin for FF? I want easy FF editing in TM. Pat

Transmit - textmate combo

by Erwin Heiser

Hi all, I love a lot of things about TextMate - but I'm still having one major problem. How can I edit multiple files straight from an FTP server in a single window? I use Transmit 3 - which lets you ctrl-click a file and "edit in" whatever. Then, when you save, it shoots the new file up to the server. However, I'm trying to figure out how to do this within one window - like when you're working on a "project". This works fine in BBEdit but in textmate it just won't work. It's probably the last thing that's holding me back from switching over completely...

Re: Transmit - textmate combo

by Yann B

This has been discussed before, you should find a bunch of stuff on here with a search. I don't get the technical reasons behind it but it seems that it is impossible to get that behavior from TextMate. The easiest way to solve this problem is to use Interarchy (FTP program - not free though...). It allows you to create what they call "Net Disks" which are local mirrors that auto synch to server on change and/or regular intervals. Since they're pretty much local files, you can create TextMate "projects" with them. Not ideal... But it does the trick until a better solution gets built in TextMate. Seeing how customizable TextMate is, I would have thought one of the super smart people on this list would have come up a "reopen current opened documents in a project" but I guess it's not as easy as it sounds ;) On Mar 15, 2007, at 5:15 PM, textmate-request(a)lists.macromates.com wrote: > Hi all, > > I love a lot of things about TextMate - but I'm still > having one major problem. > > How can I edit multiple files straight from an FTP > server in a single window?

Suggestions for subversion bundle and textmate

by Claudio Poli

hi, I want to share a few suggestions for subversion bundle that comes with Textmate, I hope this is the proper place. * Add the ability to set the ignore propset on folders directly in menu (ctrl+shift+a). * When viewing status (ctrl+shift+a+0), right clicking in window to reload will present a blank page, I'm the only one? * Add the ability to use the --force flag, this will reduce command line editing in some cases. * Add the ability to use svn move (svn ren) on files in project drawer, or just make rename function svn-aware next, for textmate * add the possibility to directly have a terminal window opened sticked at the bottom of textmate like project drawer. * sorting files and directory in project drawer, directories first instead of alphabetic order. * set a default preference for the position of the project drawer (left or right). thanks for making textmate, the best text editor so far.

Fwd: tm_dialog won't open window

by Dominik Gabi

Hi, this might be a very stupid question and I'm not so sure about whether this is the right place to ask either so I hope you can forgive me if this post is in some way inappropriate. I'm trying to reproduce the screencast about tm_dialog on my computer but somehow it doesn't work. Whenever I try to open a nib-file with "tm_dialog some_nib_file.nib" my shell is stalling but nothing else happens. I wonder what I'm doing wrong!? Are there any Variables I should set? I'm using /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/PlugIns/Dialog.tmplugin/ Contents/Resources/tm_dialog (=$DIALOG) on a core duo macbook with 10.4.8. The nib file is saved as 10.2 and later. Thx, Dominik.

Re: Screenplay Bundle v3 released

by Oliver Taylor

>> I wish I had the time to help you solve the MORE / CONT'D feature. >> That's be pure awesomenesses. > > Can you explain this issue? Maybe someone will take up the charge. When either a scene or a bit of dialogue spans a page-break indicators are placed in the scene and in the dialogue that tell you the scene, or bit of dialogue, continues on the next page. It looks like this: INT. STORE ROOM - NIGHT Darcy sits alone. DARCY I can't stand just waiting here. (more) (CONT'D) -----------------Page-Break----------------------- (CONT'D:) DARCY (CONT'D) Give me something, anything... The only place this pops up in is when printing to PDF. As of now the PDF creation is handled by PrinceXml, so prince determines where the page-breaks should go. Because prince is deciding where the page- breaks go prince would need to determine when it needs to place the "continued" indicators. I'm using Prince because it's easy to install and I can leverage the HTML conversion I can do to create the PDF. People have suggested that I could get much more sophesticated odcuments using LaTex but I've found it to be a large download, a pain to install, and yet another document language I'd have to learn. So, I'm not too interested at this point. But to be frank, this issue is not a priority.

Stats for Document command

by Derek Wyatt

Hi folks, I am just starting to get into TM a bit (I'm considering switching from VIM), and I noticed that the Stats for Document command is a bit overly complicated. I just wanted to suggest the following instead: wc | sed -e ':x' -e 's/$[0-9][0-9]*$$[0-9][0-9][0-9]$/\1,\2/' -e 'tx' | awk '{printf "%11.11s lines\n%11.11s words\n%11.11s bytes\n", $1,$2,$3}' Nice app, so far... well, except it's that a modeless editor, of course :) Regs, Derek Derek Wyatt http://derekwyatt.org

editing as user www for localhost

by Oli

Hi All, I've got localhosting set up and I'd like to edit a folder as user www, but sudo -u www mate folder_name doesn't seem to work as expected. This could be because I don't know the default Mac OS X www user password, I need to modify the sudoers file, or because sudo doesn't pass privs to Textmate when called via mate, as Allan seems to suggest here: http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/2006-November/014625.html Is this possible, or should I add it to the Wiki requests page? If it is possible, can someone point me in the right direction? peace - oli

Cocoa/CoreFoundation class/method/function suggestions

by Todd Ditchendorf

dear list, pardon my ignorance on this one... I have a feeling this has been covered many times... I'm wanting to try using TM for projects I'd usually use just Xcode for... but I'm missing the class/method/function suggestions you get when you are typing symbols in Xcode and press esc. does TM offer popup suggestion menus like this? specifically for cocoa/ corefoundation/core graphics, etc?

tm_dialog - mmm.. Lot's of questions.

by Steven.Klass＠smsc.com

Hi all, I am having a problem getting started with tm_dialog. I followed the instructions (intro_to_tm_dialog.mov -- http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2006/10/28/new-dialog-system-for-comman… ) but the first error I found was this: > tm_dialog /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin/tm_dialog: line 5: /bin/tm_dialog_v5: No such file or directory ( In this 20 seconds I learned the ctrl-R - whoa KICK BUTT!! -- but sadly `which tm_dialog` didn't work (strange tm_dialog worked)..) The script was easy so I just will use tm_dialog_v5, but then the following error occurred. Upon simply creating an empty nib and attempting to use tm_dialog with it I get the following error: > tm_dialog_v5 ~/Desktop/test.nib tm_dialog: you have updated the Dialog plug-in to v8 but the tm_dialog tool is still at v5 Since the movie ended abruptly I figured someone has a working example buried in the TM application. I dug into the SharedBundles and started looking around hoping to find a completion to the movie - or a bunch of people who have created some nibs. I only found 10. (Uh-oh) Doing some digging I can't seem to find any code which calls a nib other than the subversion example but I don't understand how that works - it doesn't appear to actually call it (i.e It doesn't ever seem to do a tm_dialog??) So I am left with a bunch of questions I hope you experts can help me with. 1. How can I get tm_dialog v8 or how do I get this to work as is? 2. Can someone give me a crude example of how to call a nib from a bundle command and use it's output? 3. When creating a nib I want to get a password from a user - how do I obfuscate the input? 4. How can I store that password so I can use it in other functions within the bundle? 5. There was mention of a python property list parser - does anyone know how this works with tm_dialog (example would be great), where it is and how to use it?

Subversion Bug when trying to commit through TextMate?

by Jonathan Kinney

Hello everyone, I'm not sure if this is how I am supposed to commit or if there is a bug with TextMate's subversion bundle but here goes... If I modify a few files and want to commit all my changes in 1 commit with 1 message there is only 1 way I've found to do so. I have to select the top level folder (like trunk, that contains my app, public etc directories) at which point you can use the menu or the key shortcut Ctl+Shift+A to pop up a window and choose commit, see the multiple file, type you message and subversion sends the changes off to the repository... the only problem is that in order to get a pop up dialog on the top level folder (ie trunk) you have to have some (any) file ope in textmate. Is this normal? I have gotten used to it but sometimes before I quit for the night I close all my windows so no preview is open in textedit and just the file drawer is there and I go "shoot...I should really do a commit" but I can just select the folder and get the list...I have to have a file open. I know it's picky...is this how everyone else is doing it??? Thanks, -Jon

Screenplay Bundle v3 released

by Oliver Taylor

So I'm not sure how much interest this bundle will hold for a bunch of code-jockeys on a mailing list, but I released version 3 of my screenwriting bundle today. The bundle is all new, it's got a help file, a preview function, a 'check for updates' function, Auto- Complete, an 'Import from Final Draft' function that actually works, and a lot more. Thanks to SubtleGradiant for the Code Completion work and everyone on the IRC channel. Check out the screencasts and the bundle at http://ollieman.net/ screenbundle/

textmate project pane strangeness

by Alan Watts

hi all, I am a longtime bbedit user but someone said I should check textmate out. I like it so far but I have encountered some weird and frustrating behavior while using the project file pane while editing text files loaded through transmit's 'edit with...' over sftp: - sometimes when files open up through transmit and then I drag them to the project pane, they're blank. I'll repeat the same process and then they show up fine. - sometimes after working on a file for awhile, the filename turns red, which I'm assuming means the link has died and I can't open them up anymore. I can toggle back to the tab if it's still open and see the file, but it won't save any changes at that point. This is the most frustrating because I have set up 100+ html/php/js/css files and then they break. Anyone have similar problems? I'm running 10.4.8 on an intel macbook. thanks! Alan

ActionScript Bundle (MTASC)

by Aaron Clinger

Not sure who to address this to, but I have a few suggestions about how the MTASC compile works in the ActionScript bundle. The new MTASC addition is really great, way better than the one I built for myself, but I do have a few suggestions to make. The mtasc.yaml support file should allow for a tad bit more flexibility: - The option to not use XTrace, a lot of Mac Flash developers use Console and the debug Flash player for this. Right now it seems if no trace is defined it uses XTrace; so there is no way to fall back on the Flash default. Also removing the XTrace class paths if not using them. - The option to easily add additional MTASC arguments in the yaml; for example '- strict'. - The option to NOT include the 'std' and the 'std8' classes. - '- keep' should not be called by default if a SWF is present. This could cause some classes to be present two times if also compiled with MTASC. I would suggest allowing the user to add this command in the additional MTASC arguments variable I mentioned above. My apologizes if there is currently a way to do any of the above without editing the 'build_with_mtasc.rb'. I would be glad to make the changes myself... Thanks for your time. best, Aaron Clinger http://casaframework.org/

Linking commands updated

by Brett Terpstra

This is an updated version of the Yahoo bundle, renamed and packaged to include the two Wikipedia commands revised to use link builder templates. I revised the templates one more time to allow for insertion as snippets with just the title being set up for immediate editing. I changed all of the bundled commands to Insert as Snippet. I included the simplest version of my modified google lucky linking command that grabs the title of the retrieved link, I can't remember how you guys felt about that, so do what you will with it. I also modified the Yahoo commands to use the DIALOG environment variable. I've been using them lately and I have to admit, they're slicker than I thought they'd be. Also... My most useful (to me) blog linking commands require my related post xmlrpc Wordpress plugin, but if there's any interest, they allow for searching of your posts by selected text or input box, linking selected text to related posts on your blog, etc. Those commands haven't been updated for the link builder yet, but will be if it's added to the default distro. http://blog.circlesixdesign.com/download/relatedposts-rpc/

noob question: saving as projects

by Laudun John

Forgive this really bone-headed question, but when I go to save a collection of files as a project -- and I have created them within the project using CMD + Shift + N -- both a project file is saved as well as the individual files. In other words, the individual files appear in the finder. Now, if the groupings were also being saved as folders/directories, it might be okay -- this is what happens when drags a collection of folders and files to Textmate. I thought the save as project feature produced a package of some kind? I don't see a preference I could have changed, so I'm wondering what's going on.

Re: [TxMt] Folding ruby =begin ... =end documentation

by Harrison Reiser

Hey everyperson, I just noticed that the change Allan made isn't quite accurate to the syntax of =begin and =end. Ruby only checks that the start of the line matches; any characters after the 'n' in =begin are considered part of the embedded document, and anything after =end is considered Ruby code. Thus, it should be "^=begin" and "^=end". Thanks, Harrison Simion Ruderich wrote: > Allan Odgaard wrote: > > Sorry, this wasn't clear from my message, but I did not checkin this > > change, I just tested that it would work -- I wasn't sure if folding on > > these keywords would generally be good. > > > > Here is the patch for the change I did, I may check it in later: > > I noticed you committed the change to the repository. > Thanks for this, > Simon

Improvements for Bulletin Board Bundle

by Zettt

Hi As some developer ;) told me i can improve the BB-Bundle by myself. I have done that! How can i contribute now? The way it is mentioned on this page: http://macromates.com/wiki/Bundles/HowToContribute doesnt work. When i am svn co it copies me the Bundle to the Library but when i double-click it TextMate opens with the Project View and in the sidebar i have the folders "Snippets" "Commands" and so on o_O What's wrong there? Here are my improvements (so far): 1. Wrap selection as Link vBulleting & phpBB - takes the adress from the pasteboard and places it where it should be. (Taken from the HTML or Markdown Bundle don't know exactly anymore) 2. Wrap selection as Code Block 3. Wrap selection as Quote - takes the whole text from pasteboard and inserts it. It asks to enter the quoted Username, too. 4. Indent > - lets you make an indented text (don't know if that works in phpBB - not tested yet) 5. Strikout - erm strikes the text out TODO: 1. Outdent < - i haven't figured out yet how to find last occurence of [INDENT] within some indents, delete it, let the text untouched and delete the next [/INDENT]. I was thinking about using some kind of regular expression, but since a i didn't know of RegEx before 3 weeks or so i am very new to this. ;) 2. Integrate "strikeout" to the bundle language. Thanks! ================================== Zettt azeitler(a)zettt.de ================================== -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Improvements-for-Bulletin-Board-Bundle-tf3380961.html… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

How can TextMate be so popular???

by tlm

I just gave TextMate a try... I'm sorry to say it was simply awful, which brings me up against the troubling paradox of TextMate's growing popularity. This is truly a big conundrum for me, one that I'd love to figure out... The first thing I learn about working with TextMate is that to open a file I need to use a GUI. This is a bad start. I, and all other programmers I know, hate to use the mouse while coding, so I must conclude that TM's developers just do not know their target market. A very bad sign indeed. (Yes, I know that one can navigate a GUI with the keyboard, but it is awkward at best, not the kind of action I want to perform often.) Fine, let's use the mouse. I open an HTML file and a JavaScript file. Now I have TWO windows open. Good grief... Let's see, in my typical coding session I work on at least a dozen buffers at any one time. So I suppose that, if I were using TextMate as my text editor, I'd have to wade through at least a dozen windows cluttering my desktop... Strike 2. In the first 60 seconds or so, TextMate has already managed to look pretty darn awful to me, but I continue on the optimistic assumption that all the flaws I have found so far (which are deal breakers AFAIC) can be "customized away". (If so my only remaining misgiving would be regarding the supreme lack of customer awareness responsible for not having these hypothetical customizations as standard-out-of-the-box in the first place.) But what followed is simply inexcusable. I visit the JavaScript file and start using F1 to fold blocks of code. The third or fourth one of these F1s results in a beep (and no folding of the block), but no error message is visible anywhere, nor is any other indication of what TextMate is having a problem with. Signalling an error without telling the user what the error is is an example ATROCIOUS software design. Revoke the developers' licenses, and put them all in jail for software engineering malpractice... Seriously now, by this point I was already truly astonished that I ever even heard of TextMate to begin with. After scanning the menus and the preferences and finding no clue on why the beep, I decide to try TextMate Help under the Help menu. I search for "beep" and get nothing; then I search for "error", and get a few hits. When I visit one of them, there's a lot of stuff on the page, nothing obviously devoted to errors, so I hit Cmd-F to search for the word "error", and all I get is yet another beep. The same thing happens when I visit other pages in the original results list. What's going on here? Things have been bad enough so far that I'm suspecting the unthinkable, I'm suspecting that maybe TextMate's HELP pages are not accessible to Cmd-F. To test this hypothesis, I use Cmd-F to search for a word that I can clearly see on the page in front of me. Again, I get a beep. Whaddya know? Please someone tell me how can it be that software like this is not only for sale, but actually SELLING??? What did I miss? tlm

SVN Bug

by Eric Coleman

Ok, I found the CMPluginContext bug, and a way to reproduce it. in your project, have a few items already added, and ready to be commited. Have a new item in your tree. Bring up the commit window. Click add next to that file, and click the checkbox, type your message in and hit enter. The commit will fail. - Eric

font ugliness/corruption cont'd

by Andy Kish

I apologize for starting a new thread; my mailing list mail is cleared pretty quickly. This is a continuation of a previous thread: http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-March/017974.html In any case, I have managed to get a screenshot of the issue taking place with normal font settings (i.e. no italicization). Screenshot (sorry for the nasty code :-D): http://img144.imageshack.us/ img144/5830/picture6eu8.png . This is actually three separate screenshots composed. On the left is TM behaving normally with AA off, the center is normal AA on behavior, and on the right is the issue taking place. Deleting the font cache + restart seemed to fix it, but I haven't experimented enough to verify that that is what is actually fixing it. Thanks, Andy K.

Pymate using the wrong version of python..

by Steven.Klass＠smsc.com

Hi Foks, Not sure if this goes to you all or not but Pymate is using the wrong version of python when it runs my script. Basically I have a script which looks like this #!/usr/bin/env python print "Hi" It fires python version 2.3.5. If I open a shell and type /usr/bin/env python it brings up the version I want. I have set TM_PYTHON to point to the version I want but still no luck. Any ideas? --- Steven M.

css workflow improvement

by Yannick Schall

Hi everybody. a while ago is followed this article: http://encytemedia.com/blog/articles/2006/11/3/increasing- productivity-with-texmate-s-new-tm_dialog and everything worked well. but after a while, when inserting an image from the menu generated by the command it would return that i have a tm_dialog conflict. at the time i removed the command as i was afraid to do something bad to my text mate when asked to checkout the dialog.tmplugin After a while a removed the dialog.tmplugin from my application support folder. and i forgot about it. i just tried to recreate the command but when i use it it return this /tmp/temp_textmate.n4JLBy:7:in `require': No such file to load -- / Users/zapata/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/plist (LoadError) from /tmp/temp_textmate.n4JLBy:7 and i do not have a plist file in my lib folder indeed. any idea how to fix this or if removing the dialog.tmplugin frommy application support was a bad idea? i tried to copy the one from the application content back into the folder but it doesn't change anything. cheers people from the world. other wise i'm as well trying to set up django on my mac osx 10.4.8 but it does/nt do anything when i follow the instruction there : http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/install/ tar xzvf Django-0.95.tar.gz cd Django-0.95 sudo python setup.py install it keep returning an error message and abort the installation, even with the firewall off Downloading http://cheeseshop.python.org/packages/2.5/s/setuptools/ setuptools-0.6c1-py2.5.egg Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 2, in <module> ez_setup.use_setuptools() File "/Users/zapata/Desktop/django/Django-0.95.1/ez_setup.py", line 72, in use_setuptools egg = download_setuptools(version, download_base, to_dir, download_delay) File "/Users/zapata/Desktop/django/Django-0.95.1/ez_setup.py", line 126, in download_setuptools src = urllib2.urlopen(url) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/urllib2.py", line 121, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/urllib2.py", line 380, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/urllib2.py", line 491, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/urllib2.py", line 418, in error return self._call_chain(*args) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/urllib2.py", line 353, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/urllib2.py", line 499, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

Insert File/Path names + open a file without using a GUI

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

Hi, I rewrote my Command 'Insert File/Path Name + AutoCorrect'. Key: CTRL+TAB Scope: none BTW I use this Command very often to open a file without a mouse or GUI. Just type: 'mate ' and invoke this Command, and finally press CTRL+R. To illustrate that Command I did a screencast (without sound because my mic is out of order, but there are written comments) http://www.bibiko.de/TM_InsertFilePathNames.mov (ca. 5.7MB) Comments are welcome! Best, Hans Some features: - simulates the TAB behaviour on a console with pull down menu, auto correction by looking backwards for a vaild begin of a path/ file name, and supports relative path names using TM_DIRECTORY - it tries to complete that file name according to the file name before the caret's position (i.e.: It is possible to use this command not only at the end of the line but also at the end of a given path within the line and even inside a given path to change it.) - to auto-complete files beginning with a dot type: e.g.: '~/.p' to look for dot files beginning with p '~/.+' to list all dot files in the home directory - if TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT, TM_SUPPORT_PATH, etc. occures in a line it will use this directory as start point Hints: The path ./ will be substitue with $TM_DIRECTORY! ../ is also supported for relative paths using $TM_DIRECTORY as root! You can use wildcards. e.g. ~/Pictures/.*jpg (for all jpg files) [case sensitive!] Symlinks are supported but not for changing a given path name. You can use TAB to jump to the end of the line, or if there is a space in front of the inserted path name you can jump to that space to delete or to insert a /. (Because this command inserts the text as snippet)

Subversion bundle - Revert confirmation dialog

by Constantinos Neophytou ♎

Am I missing something or does the 'Revert' option from the subversion bundle menu (ctrl-shift-A) doesn't display a confirmation dialog? I managed to crash TextMate as soon as I accidentally pressed that (it's right next to Update!!!) so I only lost my local changes in 2 of the 15 files I was working on... But honestly... no confirmation dialog? What's up with that? (btw, I still think TextMate kicks *ss, don't get me wrong :)

Wow...can't believe I missed that one. I knew about Cmd + T I hadn't really used it yet because I am just starting work in TextMate and am working in a project called test and haven't really named my files something super great yet (and can't remember their names) so clicking was more efficient for this project but thank you for pointing out the obvious! So many of the great features are so subtle :-) Thanks, -Jon

Go Murl Yourself

by Brett Terpstra

A little command that's especially useful for writing emails. It takes a highlighted URI and uses murl.info to shorten it to something more like: http://murl.info/14511 Very tinyurl but a little more underground ;-). Plus I couldn't get tinyurl to do this... It will accept a uri with or without a protocol (http(s)) and will accept just about any amount of garbage on the end. It does a pretty decent job of recognizing if what you have selected is actually a uri or not.

Textencoding problems renders scripts useless

by Stefan

Hi list, generally, I use textmate to write source code for various languages and systems. Everything works nicely. Textmate is set to use ISO-Latin1. From time to time, I need to copy text fragments from Word oder PDF documents to PHP scripts. As soon save the file with the copied text, the encoding of textmate document suddenly changes. All diacritical characters get converted to funny chars. All in all, the resulting PHP isn't any longer useable. It took me some time to exactly figure out the reasons. But, I failed to solve it. Does someone has an idea regarding this? BTW: If I try this using Eclipse, the IDE reports a problem saving the file, since the encoding changed. I have to start windows and copy the Word text fragments - since Eclipse on Windows works just fine. An ideas? Kind regards, Stefan

How to create new untitled doc from another process.

by Todd Ditchendorf

TextMate list, how can I command TextMate to create a new untitled document from a separate process? Basically, I want textmate to create a new window (titled 'untitled n', that does not have a file path associated with it yet. Can you do this somehow thru the mate command line command? typing just 'mate' seems to activate textmate.app, but it doesn't guarantee that a new window will be opened (which is good). typing 'mate new' (replace new with whatever title you want for your doc) creates a new file with a path of /new. I would like to create a new file that does not have any path info yet. any ideas? Todd Ditchendorf Scandalous Software - Mac XML Developer Tools http://scan.dalo.us

Question about searching a project

Ctl + Tab like in Visual Studio?

by Jonathan Kinney

I know ctl+tab right now switches focus between the text and the sidebar, which I think is very useful and I don't think that feature should go away, I just really would like a way to switch between the most recently edited file and the one I'm currently working on... I realize that I could order my tabs so that I could use apple + option and left or right, but I would love not to have to care what order my tabs are in to be able to switch between the 2 most recently edited files. Visual Studio has this feature as I mentioned in the subject through the ctl+tab feature. I use quite frequently. Any possibility we could see this implemented?
