Problem converting markdown pre-blocks with accented characters

by Bert Fitié

As a new user, I'm venturing a first question. I'm using embedded pre-blocks in markdown for simple tables. I'm spacing the columns with tabs. When a word in a column has an accented character the number of generated spaces in the conversion to html is wrong. See the example below. Before conversion: <pre> Fitié <tab> NextWord Fitie <tab> NextWord </pre> After conversion: <pre> Fitié <space> <space> NextWord Fitie <space> <space> <space> NextWord </pre> When the word has one accented character 2 spaces are generated in this case, otherwise there are 3 spaces. Something to do with UTF-8 encoding? -- Bert Fitié

remote editing with textmate

by Bill Duenskie

I know Textmate doesn't have remote editing built in, but is there a program that is similar to www.webdrive.com on a mac? Basically webdrive allowed you to connect to a FTP server and map the connection to a drive. Can anyone recommend a similar program on a mac?

Cmd Line Invocation Breaks Paste?

by s.ross

I'm not sure about this so it's a question. When, from terminal, I do: $ mate . and then edit happily away, everything in the TM environment works great. But, when I copy from a different app (say Terminal) and try to paste, the clipboard contains its previous contents, not the new copy. Any thoughts on why this could be? Thanks

more language grammar woe

by sam aaron

Hi there, I'm starting to feel really useless now! I'm trying to write a language grammar for the latex TODO bundle (http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/todo/) When used, it produces a nice todo file that looks like the following: (abstract) l.4, p iii, s : expand upon this `argument' (introduction) l.17, p 1, s 1.1: Did I just think these categories up, or did they come from somewhere? (introduction) l.26, p 1, s 1.1: Back these definitions with references to the literature (background) l.37, p 10, s 2.1.1: is there actually an example of a virtual environment with no users? (background) l.67, p 11, s 2.1.1: fill out this section with a complete range of quotes Currently I just want to add syntax highlighting to this document. I have created my own bundle (LaTeXTODO), and inside my own language file: (LaTeXTODO). This language file looks as follows: { scopeName = 'source.latex_todo'; fileTypes = ( 'TODO' ); patterns = ( { match = '^($.*?$)'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'entity.name.latex_todo'; }; }; } ); } I was hoping it would match the first bracketed word in each sentence (abstract), (introduction), etc. and scope them as 'entity.name.latex_todo'. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case. For some very strange reason, when i click on (abstract), and hit the short-cut ctrl-shift-p it says that the scope is tex.log.latex. This is very odd, and the language menu at the bottom definitely says i'm in LaTeXTODO mode. I'm really at a loss with what to do with languages grammars now, and i'm almost wondering whether TextMate is playing fairly... Yours in hope of any help at all, Sam Aaron

language grammars

by sam aaron

Hi there, I'm working on a particular form of yaml (called Feedback) which I'm using as a way of marking up suggestions for documentation. It's still in very early days (say, about 3 hours), but I'm having trouble writing my own language grammar for it. An example Feedback file currently looks like this: thesis_author: chris version: 1 commenter: sam errata: 6: para: 1 comments: - suggestion: "_in which there are no jobs_, what are jobs? Wouldn't it be simpler to just say that DynaSOAr (oh the pain of mixed case acronyms!) only consists of services?" para: 2 comments: - query: "If you're capitalising Web service with capital W, lower case s, why is 'Web Service Provider' all uppercase?" - typo: "_who's responsibility is to recieve..._ should be whose, and receive. Does LyX still not have a spell-checker? :-(" - typo: "_dynmaically_ should be dynamically" - suggestion: "_The ability to dynmaically deploy services in response to consumer requests without interruption to the invocation gives considerable scope for different deployment patterns._ This sentence needs breaking down." This document describes some comments on paragraphs 1 and 2 of page 6 of chris's thesis. As you can see, there are currently three types of comment, a query, suggestion and typo. I would like the file to have all the features of yaml (inheriting from the lovely yaml bundle), yet override certain things. I want everything between underscores to be italicised (although this will probably change due to code_variables), and I want the different types of comment to be understood by the language grammar separately. I also want certain keywords to be understood. Attempting to implement these, I came up with the following: { scopeName = 'source.yaml.feedback'; fileTypes = ( 'feedback' ); patterns = ( { name = 'markup.italic.feedback'; begin = '_'; end = '_'; }, { name = 'keyword.control.feedback.suggestion'; begin = '- suggestion: "'; end = '"'; patterns = ( { name = 'keyword.operator.feedback'; match = 'suggestion'; } ); }, { include = 'source.yaml'; }, ); } However, I didn't get the behaviour I wanted. Nothing seems to be in italics, the suggestion keyword is scoped as 'keyword.control.feedback.suggestion', and 'source.yaml.feedback' only. There's no mention of 'keyword.operator.feedback'. Is there anything obvious that I seem to be doing incorrectly? How is it possible to get a bunch of characters to be scoped with different names. I want to be able to write something like: { name = 'keyword.control.feedback'; match = '\b(suggestion|query|typo|technical)\b'; }, I'm sorry if I'm being a numpty with this! Thanks in advance of any help, Sam Aaron

Adding .json to the JavaScript bundle

by Nate Silva

JSON (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON) is a data-interchange format based on JavaScript. Although there is no official filename extension, .json is typical. It would be nice if the JavaScript bundle had 'json' added to its fileTypes. (The ticket system has warnings about entering bundle-related issues so I'm posting to this list instead.)

Feature request: .NFO file (ASCII-art)

by Johan Klintberg

Hi Textmate group! I don't have too much insight in how Textmate's plug-ins nor bundles work… but after I fiddled around with some of the preferences and files, I soon came to a conclusion that It's hard to change the font- preference depending on what file-type it is. I would like to use a custom font JUST when viewing a .nfo file. Some background info about .nfo files can be found here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=83499 The .nfo file contains "ascii-art", which originates from the demo- scene a la 1980's… and is now used in a lot of filereleases on internet. Keep up the magnificant work ! /Johan

Diff from SVN Status Window

by Mark Eli Kalderon

The link for the diff command in the svn status window seems to be insensitive to the environmental variable TM_SVN_DIFF_CMD. I have it set to fmdiff, but the link for the diff command in the status window gives me the normal diff output as opposed to launching FileMerge. TIA, Mark

Re: [TxMt] GTD Bundle Commands not working

by Adam Potthast

Mike, Thanks for responding. I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest bundle just to make sure (through the GetBundle bundle). I do have excluded.gtd in the project, and when I added "excluded.gtd" to itself, the Active GTD List view error cleared up. However, the Export to Geektool command still throws up an error even with all this. The error comes up as a tooltip, so I had to enter it by hand: /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:42: undefined method `pre_match' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:38: in `each' from /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:38 from /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:34: in `each' from /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:34 from /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:28: in `each' from /tmp/temp_textmate.bQodQm:28 By the way, thanks for the great bundle, which was working for me not long ago. It's very useful to have the output function the way it outputs to Geektool. You may want to clear up in your introduction on the blog whether the exclusions file is excluded.gtd or exclusions.gtd.

folding for php case

by David Clark

Hi, I have been surprised that for the following: switch ( $x ) { case 'Add': $db->query(build_insert_sql('event', $eventfieldlist)); $event_id = $db->insert_id; $db->query('INSERT INTO event_aud (`id`, `aud_id`) VALUES ("'.$event_id.'","'.$_POST['aud_id'].'")'); break; case 'Edit': $db->query(build_update_sql('event', $eventfieldlist, $_POST['id'])); $template['top_msg'] .= '<p>hi there </p>'; break; default: $template['top_msg'] .= '<p>hi there </p>'; break; } one can only fold the entire switch, and not each case. would this be too hard to implement? -- dc ----- David Clark Web Specialist Institute for Community Inclusion (http://www.communityinclusion.org/) david.clark(a)umb.edu (617) 287-4318

opening Projects from command line

by William Scott

I'm a new (but paid up) textmate luser, and I am beginning to appreciate the advantages of saving projects, but find that I tend to have them scattered all over my user directory. I also have a bad memory, so sometimes not only do I forget where they are, I forget what I have named them. I wanted an easy command-line way to find and open textmate projects regardless of where they are located. I wrote a shell script that uses mdfind to locate them, permit listing of them, and open them. This works as a shell script or a zsh function. http://tinyurl.com/j6gbb/tmpj tmpj foo opens the project named foo (actually it will open all projects named foo, so tweak the script if this is problematic) in any location. If used as a zsh function, I wrote an accompanying completer: http://tinyurl.com/j6gbb/_tmpj Then all you do is type tmpj and hit the tab key and you can permute through a list of every textmate project on your hard drive that has been indexed by SpotLight. If you don't want to use zsh, then you can isue the command tmpj -l and it will do the same and list possible projects. Then you just pick a project from the list and issue tmpj foo as before. HTH someone.

todo questions

by Rick Gigger

This is my first post to this list so I hope this is the right place for my questions. I have been using textmate for a while now and have just started using the todo feature. My first questions are: 1) Is there a way to make multi-line todo items that will show up in the todo list? 2) If so where is it documented how to do so?

Differences between TM versions

by Chris Rose

How different is the Cutting Edge version from the Minor Updates version? Is it stable enough to use day-to-day? Is there a place on Macromates (some skimming about didn't turn one up) where I could read the release notes, or do I have to track it by some other means? -- Chris R. ====== Not to be taken literally, internally, or seriously.

Select Python version Textmate uses

by Joancarles Casasín

Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to select wich Python version Textmate uses. Actually my default system version is 2.4.3. BBEdit runs with previous 2.3.5 but Textmate takes the 2.4.3 Revert 2.3.5 to the default Python would be a great idea too, but I couldn't find out how to do it. Thanks for your help, Joancarles newbie,yes ················· www.casasin.com ·················

persisting and communicating with an external process over a period of time

by sam aaron

Hi there, I was wondering whether it was possible for a textmate bundle to launch an external process, and then when triggered, could send some text to the process (for example, using standard streams) and then do something with the information that the process spits out. Now I know you can do this whole workflow for each command, i.e. you could read the current line, pass it as parameters to a command, and then replace the line with the output of the program. What I want to do is to have the process persist over command triggers. i.e. One trigger might start the process, another might feed it information and do something with the response (this command may be called multiple times, and each time it would communicate with the same process, rather than create a new process), and a final trigger might end the process. Is this at all possible? Thanks, Sam Aaron -- http://sam.aaron.name

How to: set reg-exp on by default?

by Timothy Bates

Hi, simple question I think, but I can't find the answer I quasi-always use regular expressions in the find and replace box, but this button defaults to plain text search. Q: What is the pref called to set this button's default to ticked? Executing "defaults read com.macromates.textmate" The closest I can see is this OakFindPanelOptions = { action = replaceAll; findInProjectIgnoreCase = 0; findString = "duchaine"; ignoreCase = 1; replaceAllScope = document; replaceString = " $1"; wrapAround = 0; }; But no sign of "Regular Expression" Tim

Snippet regex transformation help

by Ed Singleton

I'm trying to use a regex transformation in a snippet that will convert the first letter of a word to uppercase and convert underscore _ followed by a letter to a space and an uppercase letter. eg: field_name > Field Name long_field_name > Long Field Name I can't quite get get my head round how to do it, as it seems like two seperate transformations, but I'm not sure how to to do transformations on a string in a snippet. Is there a collection of regexes for transforming between the main cases? (particularly Camel, Title and underscore seperated) I managed one that went from CamelCase to underscore_seperated: ${1/([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:$1_)\l$2/g} Thanks Ed

Projects doesn't keep track of files…

by guerom00

Hi there, Well, that's pretty simple : I create a project by dragging a bunch of files in the project drawer… Fine… After that, I move some of those files somewhere else with the Finder or whatever : TextMate has “lost” the moved files which now appear in red… I cannot believe I am the only one bothered by this behaviour… Or am I ? :-)

Auto saving and auto loading of projects?

by Alan Schmitt

Is there a way to have an auto saving and auto loading of projects? I work on two computers, and I often have TextMate running on both. When I synchronize files (using http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/ unison/index.html), TextMate picks up the changes automatically and visually tells me a file is not saved. However there is no visual clue that a project is not saved, and changes done to the tmproje file are not picked up automatically. I guess I could close all my projects before synchronizing, but I find it really convenient to have TextMate running all the time. (By the way, projects are a great feature and they make my working with many TeX files much easier and more efficient.)

python 'new function' command

by Jacob Rus

Hi all, I just changed the python new function command to do some fun things when one of python's 'special methods' is the name used for the new function. So now, if you press ⇧↩ after typing a word like "setattr", "cmp", "repr", or "init", you'll get a function that looks like: def __setattr__(self, name, value): pass or def __cmp__(self, other): pass I hope that people find it useful. The one downside to this method is that if you want to name a function the same way as one of these special methods (but without the underscores), then using ⇧↩ will not work as before. So in that case use the "def" tab trigger. Also, we may want to figure out a way to get these to execute with the ⇥ key instead of using ⇧↩ In general, I'm surprised that there hasn't been more progress on the python bundle, given how many people claim to use it.[^1] I suppose I'm as guilty for this as anyone. Anyway, us TM python users need to start adding useful stuff to the bundle. It's hard to think of things, given that the language is pretty low on extraneous baggage, but I'm sure there are places where we can speed ourselves up. -Jacob [^1]: http://macromates.com/wiki/Polls/WhichLanguageDoYouUse

Refresh delay for network mounted disks

by Ben Taber

The one thing preventing me from making a complete switch to textmate is the lag when the app regains focus when viewing a project contianing folders on network mounts. I noticed that the manual mentions this behavior, and also says it will be addressed in a future release... Anyone have a time table around this? Thanks, Ben ------ http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/working_with_multiple_files 2.1.1 Auto-Updating Projects Currently updating is done when TextMate regains focus and can be slow for some network mounted disks, in which case you may want to settle for only adding individual files to the project (which can be grouped and re-ordered manually to mimic the structure on disk). The refresh delay for network mounted disks will be addressed in a future release.

Spelling suggestion

Hi! I recently noticed, that alt+F2 invokes the spelling menu. Really good. But spelling errors are recognized, when I type a blank symbol. So I have to move the cursor back and type alt+F2. Is it possible to invoke the spelling menu for the last misspelled word? And perhaps there could be an own TextMate spelling menu which has shortcuts for the entries. Helge

snippet and command questions (toggle comments, hard-wrap, etc.)

by Jason Moore

Hi, I'm a new to textmate and loving it so far. i have a couple of questions that i've saved up after my first week of use that i was hoping someone could help me with: * i find that snippets make it easy to add text - but i'm not so sure how to modify existing text. e.g. i find i am always commenting out code in css, so i added this snippet (and bound to a key): /* $TM_SELECTED_TEXT */ great! ok, now how would i remove comments? (or even better, how to toggle comments on the current line?) * hard-wrap: i know textmate doesn't support this out of the box, but with vi i always used "fmt". so here's my command which i bound to a key: fmt << ___END___ $TM_SELECTED_TEXT ___END___ this isn't ideal (what if the text has ___END___ in it? fmt barfs on non-ascii, and i always get an extra newline.) is there a better way? * some snippets show a series of options, which you cannot select (they just get erased when you start to type.) what's the idea - just a simple reminder - or am i using it wrong? e.g. in the css bundle: list-style-type: ${1:none/disc/circle/square};$0 why not just make 4 snippets - so then you get the popup and can choose which one? (so i could hit '1' instead of typing in 'none'.) well, i've got lots more questions, but that's probably enough for now. :jason

text accents in LaTeX

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi, when writing in languages using accents (e.g. italian) one frequently types \`e or \`o (or \"u etc). The LaTeX bundle has the annoying habit of doubling the ticks or backticks (or the double quotes) even immediately following a backslash \ This seems inappropriate; the sequences \`' and \"" have no use I presume. Is it possible to keep the doubling of ticks except when immediately following a backslash? I know I can disable the doubling completely, but I would like to keep it in other cases. Thanks, Piero

Obj-C: goto method declaration

Running "make" in the current directory?

by Alan Schmitt

Hello, Is there an existing command to run "make" in the current directory, or should I make one? I'm working on a LaTeX paper with sereval people who use emacs, and the building process is done using a Makefile. I looked at the LaTeX "Typeset and View" in the bundle editor, but it seems that it's always adding options to TM_LATEX_COMPILER and cannot simply be used to call make. (I may have missed something there, I'm a fairly new TextMate user). Thanks for any suggestion.

Using default editor on remote connections

by Jerzy Gangi

Hi, I'm fairly new to TextMate - I use it to develop Java applications and my website in an academic enviornment. I followed directions on the TM website to make TM my default Cocoa Text Field editor in OS X (from here: http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/ using_textmate_from_terminal). I press splat + ctrl + E in nearly any application* and I can edit the field with TM. This is a fantastic feature to which I have grown addicted. However, I find myself ssh-ing into servers around campus and I can't use TM to edit files in the shell (since the EDITOR variable is obviously local to my machine). Is it possible in my .bash_profile on remote servers to open files in my local TM? This would be great... I'll conclude by saying that I have very little *nix knowledge, so please be gentle! Thank you for your help - I've learned a lot on this list. - Jerzy G. *Firefox text boxes don't seem to work - I presume it's not a Cocoa text field?

Minor LaTeX Snippet Suggestions

by Steve Lianoglou

Hi guys, I just started to reuse LaTeX again, there's been a lot of really great things going on since the last time I used it, so awesome job! I like how you've added the (fold/end) markers for each section/ subsection, but might I suggest adding the text in \label to the "end" part of the snippet, so as to remind the user what section they are looking at the end of? So, currently the section snippet looks like: \section{${1:section name}}\label{sec:${2:${1/(\w+)|\W+/(?1:\L$0:_)/ g}}} % (fold) ${0:$TM_SELECTED_TEXT} % section (end) I'm thinking something like this (which works w/o damaging anything) % section ${2} (end) But for some reason I find this more handy (which unfortunately hoses the folding): % section (end:${2}) It's easy enough for me to keep it in my own bundle, but I figured others may find this useful as well. What do you think? -steve

LaTeX project options and compiling window

by Alan Schmitt

Hello, A while ago, I was told that I could specify what latex command get run when I "rebuild" a latex file using the "TM_LATEX_COMPILER" project option. Unfortunately the only place I found where I can specify shell variables is in the global preferences, and I would like of course such variables to be project dependent. Is there a way to do so? Another thing I would like is to keep the "compiling" window open, so that I can look at the warnings and messages (right now it closes after compilation). I could not find this window in the "Window" menu. How can I keep it open?

Bug: Python bundle - constant_placeholder definition does not handle '%%'

A revision of the Fetch Categories Command

by Brett Terpstra

Based on suggestions from Allan I've revised the Fetch Categories command to work with a multi-select menu (using osascript). You can now just choose multiple categories at once and it will insert the text "Category: your_category" for each selected item. Once again, this is only tested with Wordpress on my end, so I'm curious to hear if it works with other blogging software. I have also made the command available for download at: http://blog.circlesixdesign.com/downloads/FetchCategories2.zip I'm having a lot of fun writing commands and snippets, but I'm no programmer. If anyone sees fit to clean up the code, feel free, and I'd love a copy to learn from if you do. Brett

Determining list of all keyboard shortcuts

by Michael Henry

All, Is there a good way to determine a reverse mapping from a keyboard shortcut to its purpose? Often I'd like to know if a given shortcut is already used, but I don't know how to search for it easily. I know about the "Show Keyboard Shortcuts" feature (invoked via control-option-command-K). It shows the shortcuts for all bundles, but the keystrokes are written with the fancy Apple glyphs instead of easily searched words like "control-option-command". Is there a simple way to enter these glyphs from the keyboard to make this search easier? I've sometimes resorted to scanning the list for a glyph of interest, then copying it to the clipboard and pasting it into the find box, but I'd like a more direct way. Also, I don't know how to generate a list of keyboard shortcuts for built-in features not found in bundles - is there a way? Thanks, Michael Henry

Errors from InputManagers get inserted by bundle commands

by John Yeates

When I attempted to use HTML > Insert Entity, I got the following text inserted before the entity: 2006-10-01 17:58:18.374 CocoaDialog[3175] GrowlCode: App identifier or version don't match. Doing nothing. Obviously, this is GrowlCode's fault, but any InputManager could drop things on STDERR and mess commands up. I've tried adding "2> /dev/ null" at strategic points in the Insert Entity command, but it doesn't seem to be working (I don't really talk bash, as I've used zsh for years, so it's possible I'm going about ignoring STDERR in the wrong way — shouldn't be a difference, though) I've uninstalled GrowlCode for now, but does anybody know of a way of keeping irrelevant error messages from being inserted? I nearly ended up with a very confusing-looking eBay auction :) Thanks -- John Yeates

Subversion bundle, status actions don't work

completionCommand prefs confusion

by marios

Hi, I am pretty close to set up my development environment exactly the way I want it. The TXP Bundle runs much nicer now, with no warnings in Console output. In the meanwhile, while using it and testing along, I came across a problem that has puzzled my for hours. I hope, that someone might be able to help. I have a project Folder that uses a local document root Folder in my Site folder for Testing, no problems with that. However in order to use the completion command, for completions, that I want for a special Tag <txp:article />, I have a Preference Item, that contains the following command: { completionCommand = 'find "$TM_DIRECTORY" \ -name "$TM_CURRENT_WORD*article.txfml" -maxdepth 2 \ -exec basename "{}" \;|sort'; } as described in Section 4.2 of the manual, in order to provide the filenames of a special folder, that contains the needed filenames that I need to provide as attribute values for the above mentioned tag. My first problem here is, that I would need maxdepth 4 and even worser, maxdepth 4 and 5. I tried to alter the command, setting maxdepth to 4 and 5, since I need to maintain the directory structure of my site folders. This does not seem to work. The second problem is, that I also have some other completions for Tag names and attribute names, which are sitting normally in arrays, in some other pref Items. I set up another pref Item, with : { disableDefaultCompletion = '1'; } and scope : text.html.txp entity.name.tag.single.article.txp which is the same scope that I have for the above command, in order to suppress the default completions on article form attribute values, but the only thing that the escape key cycles through, are the near by found values in the open document. What am I doing wrong here ? (Note also, that the file endings I have, have the form eg.: .article.txfml, comment.txfml, file.txfml, etc, which are needed, to fine grade those completions based on this article form completion command. Any help appreciated. regards, marios

Language Grammar TXP retrospect

by marios

Hi again, to all, I am writing this to get a couple of evaluation thoughts together, on the Language Grammar, that I wrote for the TXP Bundle. It is not solely related to that Bundle only, so you may find this useful, if you attempt a similar approach for other Languages. I have spent the last two days inspecting this Grammar in detail and iterating over the current approach and trying to extract the major mistakes, so I can refactor the Grammar and make it more accessible to TM's Automation Features. In a nutshell, the Grammar is largely inspired and adapted from the experimental XHTML Bundle, following a modular approach,by referencing repository Items with include rules. The difference is, that in the experimental XHTML Bundle, each repository Item is referenced a in recursive manner, and resolves in one exclusive repository Item that stands for the html tag for html tags as exclusive root node. Textpattern Tags on the other hand do not have this requirement, so each repository Item gets referenced within an include rule,except for their attributes and values, which do not have an include rule at the root. In order to make those non root included items easily accessible a naming convention was used, so that after reformating the code in the Bundle Editor appears exactly below the Repository Item, that references them, where there is one for each Tag. Example: author-tag = { }; author-tagatts = { }; The major difficulty is in the distinction of single, container, plugin and conditional tags, plus to get scopes also for the attribute values. which currently leads to matching conflicts, therefore, the current version of the Grammar doesn't have full distinction for attribute values, mainly on the single plugin tags. One verification, that I have done about the shortcoming of this Grammar, is that it is wrong not to have a simple include for quoted single and double strings, which is now the case. For instance if I used cntrl shift < and then typed txp:article space and then get the automatic closing quote insertion, the cursor will be in between "". At this point verifying Scope with cntrl shift P, I should have at least a scope of string.quoted.double or any other dist. available. If this is not the case,all the additional automation possibilities are lost since I can not have a snippet insertion conditional. On the other hand, while including a rule for such a scope left me with the problem of specificity of such rules, making it again difficult to have a distinct scope of attribute.value, that would match only a string, that is in between the quotes, but has another scope then string.quoted.double To be continued, regards, marios

hard wrap?

by Andreas Duus Pape

Hello. Can I "save a file with line breaks" i.e. have TextMate save a text file with hard wrap? (I did a little googling on this topic w/r/t TextMate and found the answers fairly confusing.) Thanks! --andreas

Scope, Document and insert_text

by Brett Terpstra

Is anyone out there in TM land using Wordpress and Ultimate Tag Warrior? If so, I've managed to combine some of my mods and make the UTW tags accessible from TextMate. There's a whole bundle involved, and you have to replace your xmlrpc.php file (after backing it up, of course). It's working really smoothly on my end. If I type fetchtags and hit tab, it gets the entire database of tags, sorts it and returns a multi-select menu. When you finish picking tags it inserts a line in the header with a comma-separated list of your chosen tags. It's got the functionality to save and modify new and existing tags. I also got it working with my AutoTag mod, so that it can read your current post and suggest tags based on a fuzzy search of your database. I could easily add the Yahoo suggest if anyone was interested, but I've never liked the results I get anyway. My biggest question is this, sorry it took me so long to get around to it... After I've accepted an entire document as input, chosen tags and have a string ready to print, what's the most elegant way to make sure that string gets inserted in the blog post headers rather than at the end of the file?

Project Stats & a bug?

by Reprisal

I've attached a few simple commands I hacked up to practice my ruby. There may be better ways to do these so any input is welcome. The first one "Show TODO - ignore list" is pretty basic. On the first line of the script it takes an array of patterns of files to ignore while parsing your project. Its should be pretty easy to enter your list even if you don't know ruby, just follow the example. Ideally I'd like to make it so you can set the list externally somehow to make it easy. I wrote this because the TextMate.each_text_file was parsing everything in the project folder, regardless if I removed it from the project or not. I have a "vendored" version of edge rails in one of my project folders, and seeing a list of all of DHH et al.s comments was hindering my use of the TODO. The other two commands go together. "Project Statistics" displays the total word count, line count, and bytes on the tool tip for the entire project. "Project Statistics - Full Output" displays the same information for each file in the project as well as the totals as html Both of these commands use each_text_file with an ignore list as well, so they suffer the same limitations and advantages. I wrote these cause I had to work on a horrible web system from the pre-standards days all day today and I wanted to see just how ugly it was. I found out - they have more javascript for their drop down menus alone then the entire prototype library contains. William p.s. Allan: If I run any of these commands, regular todo or my versions, on a group of files from a top level directory like /Users/ username my textmate will lock up for a very long time, at least unless of course I have a lot of ignore flags set. Not too hard to avoid, certainly less than ideal. Is there a better way to iterate over project files? p.p.s Thank you for all your hard work and amazing program.

anchors in HTML window

by Piero D'Ancona

Suppose I have a myFile.html file containing a link <a href="myFile.html#myAnchor"> Go to anchor! </a> which points to an anchor in the same file: <a name="myAnchor"> I knew you would come here! </a> When I load the file in the TextMate HTML window, apparently, the link to the anchor does not work (when I click on it, the HTML page goes blank). What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Piero

Error when Posting to Blog

When I post to my blog from TM, it works fine, but a new line gets inserted at the top of my post: 2006-09-29 23:56:35.942 open[1013] No such file: /name-of-my-post And then, of course, it doesn't open up in my browser. I'll also note that I have been able to post to other blogs properly... so it must be something with my typo configuration? Thanks! Adam

Java syntax highlighting bug?

by Trevor Harmon

I am using TextMate 1.5.3 and the latest bundles checked out from the repository. When I open bubbleSort.java [1] in TextMate, some of the comments are highlighted as comments; some aren't. Bug? Also, when I select all text in the file then do Text > Indent Selection, the file isn't properly indented. (Note especially the last few lines of the file.) Is this a bug, or does the command simply not handle inter-method Java indentation? Thanks, Trevor [1] http://www2.latech.edu/~box/ds/bubbleSort.java

(Vastly improved) Wikipedia Linking Command

by Brett Terpstra

I've attached a complete rewrite of the Wikipedia linking code. It's a little more modular, a lot more inclusive and a bit smarter than before. I am definitely still open to input (Haris ;-)) on my coding technique and anything that can be done to improve the command. I'm just getting my feet wet with Ruby, regular expressions and TextMate in general. If you're currently using the command I distriubted previously on this list, Brett Inc.

UTF-8 BOM problem

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Dear list menbers, I have the following problem: I received a plain text file utf-8 encoded written on a Windows PC. I could open this file and I could edit this file perfectly. After my modifications I saved this as utf-8 with LF. OK. Then I tried to import the content of that file in a database. This didn't work, because the database couldn't parse the first line. Then I opened that file in a HexEditor and I saw that the first line begins with EF BB BF. After looking at this I remembered that these bytes are the BOM (Byte Order Marker) for utf-8 and Windows PC's make often use of it to save utf-8 text files. My problem is now that I couldn't find a way to save my text file as utf-8 without BOM. I had to use jEdit for that, because in jEdit you can select the encoding utf-8 or utf-8y (meaning with BOM). Is there any chance to implement this in TextMate? Or, may be better, that TextMate saves all utf-8 files without BOM, because I think this marker is irrelevant within utf-8. It only makes sense in utf-16/32. All the best, Hans

Key equivalents etc. not working after svn up

by Dave Rosoff

Hi, After reading on this list about all the great recent updates to the Latex bundle I decided to svn-up all the bundles I've installed: > cd /Library/Application\ Support/Textmate/Bundles > svn up Then I used the "Reload Bundles" command from inside TextMate. Now an odd thing is happening. The old key equivalents don't seem to work for the Latex-bundle commands anymore, even though they are the same in the menu. Similarly they do not appear in the Use Bundle Item... dialog when I summon it with Ctrl-Cmd-T. Suggestions? TIA for your help. -dave

Blogging bunlde saving

by Helge Hartmann

Hi! I really like the blogging bundle. It's amazing. But each time I close the window, I am asked to save the file. I think there are few, if at all, who save their blog entries as files. Wouldn’t it be a better behavior to ask for post to blog? Also I naturally type apple+s, when I am finished. So, I added a copy of the post to blog command and associated this shortcut to it. Storing the file in this case seems similar to post it. What do you think? Helge

A Visual Enhancement

Hello Textmate-Users, i'd love to see a solid block-cursor in Textmate, configurable by the user : blinking or not, block or default as it is. Maybe i'm gettin' old, but i find myself frequently searching for the cursor since I switched to working on black. I'd like to read u'r opinion on this and for sure maybe there exists a osx-hack already to achive this without bothering Allen ;-) Greets, Andreas --- »In a perfect world… spammers would get caught, go to jail, and share a cell with many men who have enlarged their penisses, taken Viagra and are looking for a new relationship.«

Rmagick and the blogging bundle

by Brett Terpstra

If anyone is interested, and happens to have Rmagick installed, I added on to the image insertion drag and drop command in the blogging bundle to automatically thumbnail and link with titles, alt tags, etc. It gives you a drop down menu asking you whether you want the thumbnail, the full image, or the thumbnail linked to the full image (a rel=lightbox tag is included for those using it). Like I said, it requires Rmagick (and ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick) to be compiled and installed. It bootlegs on the original command for everything else. Brett

syncmate

by Jay Soffian

A common refrain on this list is being able to edit files remotely. I explored various solutions (transmit, subversion, hotkey), but decided that ultimately what I wanted was something that would just watch one or more local files I was editing and then as they change, automatically upload them to a remote destination. So I spent some time last night hacking together syncmate (python script), attached: Usage: syncmate <file> [<file>...] [username@]host:/remote/path/ Watches one or more files for changes and copies to host whenever the file changes locally. The first time called, starts an instance of syncmate as a daemon. Each subsequent time called registers new files with the running daemon. Usage: syncmate --list Lists registered files Usage: syncmate --quit Causes daemon to quit It requires the Growl python bindings be installed for notification (btw, I had trouble with the Growl python bindings occasionally causing python to crash, but I think I've narrowed the problem down to attempting to use a custom icon in the notifications, so I've left that out.) Anyway, I find this useful in combination with textmate, so I figured I'd post it here. Hope someone else finds it useful. j.

HTML-ish bundles

I noticed that there's an XHTML bundle in the repository and then there's the HTML bundle included by default.

(Perhaps it should be included by default as well.) Just curious. Rob

Textmate RoR Bundle tweak - Running tests straight from TM?

by Carl Lerche

Hello, Ok, I'm probably missing something obvious here, but I can't find anything in textmate to let you run your tests without going to the terminal. With everything else in there, it seems like it would be something included. Anyway, I took a few minutes from work to do a quick hack to the bundle (my changes attached). I bound the run test command to command - option - G. If the textmate cursor is in a controller or model, it will run the associated test file. If the TM cursor is in a test file (unit or functional) it will only run the test method that the cursor is in (so that when I'm writing a test, I can run it real quick). If the cursor is outside of a test method (test_*) it will run the entire file. I added a file to the bundle ( bin/test_helper.rb) and a command. I also might have found a bug in the bundle. See the comments in bin/test_helper.rb Please let me know if there already is something out there that would probably be far more thought through than this quick hack. Thanks, -carl

Label Table (for LaTeX) - final (so to say)

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi, so I'm posting this last message to share the "final" version of the Label Table command; of course it is very rudimentary and would need additional work, but for me it does exactly what I need, so maybe it can be useful for others too. I hope Haris or Allan like it and add something like it to the Latex Bundle in the future (who knows what's in the mind of masters anyway). I guess it is not possible to attach files from the web gmane interface, so I am posting the command inside the text. After all it takes 2 minutes to join back the long sed commands into one line, copy and paste into the bundle editor... Input: entire document, Output: HTML file, scope: you choose. The command creates an HTML window listing all the \label-s of the topmost open window (only one file at the time, sorry). Each label in the window is clickable, and clicking inserts text at the insertion point in the open TextMate window. If the label name starts with "eq", then \eqref{label_name} is inserted; otherwise, only \ref{label_name}. Best way to use the command: launch it the first time, the HTML window opens; resize and put the window in a handy position; then never close it, when you need it just issue the command again (the window is refreshed and jumps over the other windows). Thanks to Allan for help. Enjoy and improve, Piero TEXT OF THE COMMAND: # parse the file for \labels (plus two lines following them) sed -n -e "/\\label/{=;N;N;G;p;}" | # separate labels from each other, the html way sed '/^$/d' | sed 's/^$[0-9]*$$/\<p\>\<\/p\>\1/' | sed 's/$.$$/\1\<br\>/' | # the following two sed commands must be on one line each! # do not insert spaces when joining lines # insert active javascript links: for equations (we want \eqref here)... sed 's/\\label{eq$.*$}/\<a href=\"javascript:TextMate.system (\"\/usr\/bin\/osascript \&\>\/dev\/null -e @tell app \\\" TextMate\\\" to insert \\\"\\\\\\\\eqref{eq\1}\\\" @ \&\&quot, null);\"\>\\label{eq\1}\<\/a>/' | # ... and for the rest (sections, theorems etc.: we need \ref) sed 's/\\label{$[^e][^q].*$}/\<a href=\"javascript:TextMate.system (\"\/usr\/bin\/osascript \&\>\/dev\/null -e @tell app \\\" TextMate\\\" to insert \\\"\\\\\\\\ref{\1}\\\" @ \&\&quot, null);\"\>\\label{\1}\<\/a>/' | # I used @ instead of ' for escaping reasons - put the quotes back tr "@" "'"

Template Code

by Ketan Anjaria

In a previous version of textmate the following code for a template worked to create a TM_PACKAGE variable TM_PACKAGE=`sed <<<$TM_NEW_FILE_DIRECTORY -n 's#.*classes/\ (.*\)#\1#p'|tr / .` \ basically it takes the new file directory like this /Users/ketan/Documents/client/project/development/classes/client/ project And It turns the "/" to "." and removes everything before the classes so the end result would be client.project Any ideas on how to do this ? I am not very good with sed. Ketan

question: how to insert a "" from javascript?

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi, one never really escapes the escape tunnel. I have a new problem with escapes. >From the command line I can ask TextMate to insert a backslash: osascript -s 'tell app "TextMate" to insert "\"' I want to do the same from a javascript contained in an a href link. But I can not find the correct way to escape things. Allan's suggestion works perfectly with ordinary text; the following html code: <a href="javascript:TextMate.system("/usr/bin/osascript &> /dev/null -e 'tell app \"TextMate\" to insert \"TEXTTOINSERT\"' &&quot, null);"> TEXTOFLINK</a><br> produces a link TEXTOFLINK and when I click on it, TEXTTOINSERT is inserted into TextMate. But if TEXTTOINSERT contains a backslash, it is ignored. A pity since I want to insert a tex command... What should I write instead of TEXTTOINSERT to get, say, "\eqref" to be inserted? Yes, I am escape-blind. Thanks for any help, Piero PS hm... no one seems to like my new idea for label completion. I'll keep it for personal use :)

Control Arrow with camelCase and numbers

by Eric O'Brien

With this text: mainNavL1 Doing Control + right arrow will move the cursor first to the beginning of the word, then to the left of the capital N, then left of the capital L, and after that pressing the keystroke no longer advances the cursor -- it gets "stuck" there. It seems that the numeral ("1" here) causes the problem. If you start with the cursor to the right of the entire word and use Control + left arrow the problem does not occur. eo

Re: [TxMt] howto help: new user can't figure out HTML completion (10.3 vs 10.4)

by Textmate List User Ivy

Thanks everyone! Jacob's note stepped me through the RoR screencast's actions* Alan's note lead me to the TextMate screencast which starts to unlock TextMate's bundle and snippet secrets* And Tom pointed out that I was seeing snippets in use, not really completion. If these answers lead to a new question its: does TextMate have all its features when run in Panther (OS X 10.3)? And if not, what am I missing? Scrutinizing the text insertion screencast I noticed *my version (1.5.3) is missing the "Automation" menu. Ah-ha! I find no mention of system requirements or Panther versus Tiger capabilities in the docs (aside from a couple minor ones). Is there a version feature comparison matrix somewhere? Maybe that's just for when you have an entire martketing department! So, thanks for all the help, Ivy

Re: [TxMt] CSS bundle - property name pair matching weirdness

by minimal design

I was on vacation for 2 weeks and didn't feel like going through the 60+ TM emails ;) Thanks for the link, creating my own macro solved the issue. I hope that in the future, modifications on behaviors such as this one (that clearly effect every day use) are given a little more time/ thought before being implemented, or at least get documented in a more "in your face" way, so that I don't have to be worried about what's going to happen every time TM gets updated ;) Yann On Sep 24, 2006, at 11:37 PM, textmate-request(a)lists.macromates.com wrote: > What, you didn't get the memo? ;) > > http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/2006-August/012725.html > > Haris

howto help: new user can't figure out HTML completion

by Textmate List User Ivy

Folks, I'm watching Putting Flickr on Rails (http://www.rubyonrails.com/screencasts) and see the presenter using TextMate with completion for a new HTML file. Great! How do I "turn it on"? Just want to set it and use it. I open a new doc, "application.rhml" in my rails tree in folder, "layout" and type "doctype" and hit "esc"...nothing happens - no, I take that back. Textmate beeps at me. I don't want to become a textmate expert or wade through a lot of documentation. Is it a bundle setting? A keystroke sequence? Bad karma? I've gotten pretty good at BBedit in my day, so I'm not daunted by configuration, but I don't want to (re-)learn unix or vm or whatever to understand this. And searching the list archine (http://macromates.com/community) isn't quickly, concisely yeilding the answer (in the first two pages of results for "how to use completion". Please answer this probably incredibly simple question, or point me to the tutuorial, thread, post or URL where the answer is found. Thanks, Ivy

Re: [TxMt] LaTeX: Bibliography-Autocompletion stopped to work?

by Max Lein

Since I have never used BibDesk in conjunction with TextMate before, we can rule out #3 and I use option #2 only if #1 doesn't work or turn up the option I like. I'm definitely talking about #1, although I was a bit confused myself, to be honest. So here are some more details: (1) I have set the variable TM_LATEX_BIB (there are spaces in the path, not sure whether that is important). (2) I type \cite{ and start with the first few letters of a citation (e. g. King for KingSmithVanderbilt:blablabla). The scope is text.tex.latex, meta.citation.latex and constant.other.reference.citation.latex. Sounds alright to me, although you are clearly the expert here. (3) I hit escape and nothing happens, no autocompletion or toggling through my options. Instead, I get OS X' alarm bell. (4) I hit option + escape and everything works just fine. So TextMate definitely finds my bibliography file … If there is anything I can do for regression, just let me know. Max PS I will be on a conference Monday through Thursday, so I won't reply as quickly as I usually do.

CSS bundle - property name pair matching weirdness

by minimal design

Until yesterday, when I entered ":" after a class/id property name like: .class { property_name: As soon as I hit the ":" I'd get ": ;" with a space after the ":" ready to type the value. Now, suddenly I get no space anymore... Which is prety annoying because I finally got used to the space being there automatically... Worse even: when I go to work tomorrow, my version of TM there is probably going to insert that space and I'm going to go nuts switching between the 2 versions everyday... :'( I looked at CSS bundle prefs for PropertyName: { smartTypingPairs = ( ( ':', ';' ) ); } but I don't see where the space came from before and I didn't change anything there anyway... I don't really care either if I get the space automatically or not, but it took me a while to get used to it when TM first started to do that (I kept on inserting an extra space for like 2 weeks...) so what bothers me is that behavior changed... again... and I have no idea why. Happened to anyone else before? I did remove all the customized bundles and restarted TM fresh, but the auto insertion of the space is still gone... Thanks for any help!

R console mode difficulties

by Peter Cowan

Haris, What a great idea, I saw the commit and thought I'd give it a try. Unfortunately I didn't have much success. I have R.app (1.16, R version 2.31) open and running. In the latest cutting edge I create a new document, choose the R console language and get the following errors: > print("hello world") 294:299: syntax error: Expected end of line, etc. but found identifier. (-2741) > x <- 7 152:163: execution error: System Events got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4 (1) Thanks for all your efforts! Peter

LaTeX: Bibliography-Autocompletion stopped to work?

by Niels Kobschaetzki

Hi! Right now I'm writing on the concept for a thesis and it seems that the bibliography-autocompletion stopped to work. I openend the bundle-editor and saw that there was no key assigned it. When I assign Escape I get text-autocompletion, if I assign alt +esc I get the same, if I assign anything else nothing happens. Can anyone verify that? I use built 1258 with an actual SVN-checkout and Bibdesk 1.2.9 for my bibliographies (but the last one shouldn't be important, should it?)

LaTeX: Bibliography-Autocompletion stopped to work?

by Max Lein

Same here, I was wondering why that function doesn't work anymore. I don't use BibTeX (it effed up the special characters in my bibliography, e. g. umlaute and it took me an hour to clean up my bib file). Instead, I have set the proper TextMate project variable and it did work before with the same project. But until recently, I could use only escape to shuffle through suitable entries of the bibliography without using BibDesk at all. I definitely prefer using escape over alt + escape, so if there is any way to get the old functionality back? Here's another vote against removing the old escape-only command ;-) Max

Django Templates Grammar Included in HTML Grammar?

by Brad Fults

I downloaded the Django Templates bundle and it works fine, but I have to select it as the active language on all of my template files. I would rather just select "HTML" as the language and have the Django Template stuff be included within HTML, just like PHP, Ruby, and Smarty are. I took a look at the grammar and tried a few things, but was unsuccessful at integrating them. Could anyone give pointers on how that integration should work or, better yet, a working HTML grammar that includes this change? Thanks. -- Brad Fults

a better label completion techique

by Piero D\\\\\\\'Ancona

Hi, this is a followup to the thread with a similar name, but I thought it deserved a new thread since I'm posting a complete solution (hehe - I'm trapped in a hotel room in Paris, it's raining here...) So: 1) create a new command "Lable Table" with input= entire document output=Show as HTML 2) the command is the following. (I know, I should post a .tmCommand file, but I do not know how so bear with me). GMane requested me to split the commands, but we have here 6 commands (5 sed and 1 tr) which should be on one line each. When joining back the last sed command do not introduce spaces. sed -n -e "/\\label/{=;N;N;G;p;}" | sed '/^$/d' | sed 's/^$[0-9]*$$/\<p\>\<\/p\>\1/' | sed 's/$.$$/\1\<br\>/' | sed 's/\\label{$.*$}/\<a href=\"javascript:TextMate.system (\"\/usr\/bin\/osascript \&\>\/dev\/null -e %tell app \\\ "TextMate\\\" to insert \\\"\1\\\"% \& amp;\&quot, null);\"\>\\label{\1}\<\/a>/' | tr "%" "'" 3) open a .tex file and experiment. When you click on a label the argument is inserted. The command and the text insertion is very fast, and as to usability it's already better than the standard Label completion (my taste). Please, some real coder take this stuff and make it into some serious code, I think the result is pretty amazing compared with the simplicity. I am not able to extend the script for multiple files (i.e. one master file and the \includes), any help? Ciao, Piero

idea: a better label completion technique

by Piero D\'Ancona

Hi list I am using TextMate full time to write Latex and it's great, and improving. One thing I do not like is the CocoaDialog interface to insert \refs: too slow and clumsy. I (almost) can stand it for bibliography completion but \refs are too many, too similar to each other, and too frequently needed, so the dialog interrupts my workflow. So I started thinking and tinkering, but my coding skills are too poor (I also sent a msg to this list asking for help). Finally I think it is better to publish the idea and let the code wizards code it, if they like it. My feeling is that this could be the optimal way to insert references, even better than auctex's. The idea is very simple: parse the tex file, write all labels (plus some surrounding text) into an auxiliary .lbl file, convert this into html, and replace each \label{...} command with an "a href" to a tiny javascript command that tells TextMate to insert the label's name into the source file. Finally, output to HTML. (Improvement: just search the labels matching a few characters, as it is now). Do you see it? This produces an HTML window, with a list of all my labels, followed by the beginning lines of the equations (or section titles). More important, each label is clickable, and when I click on it, the reference gets inserted into the source file. I can keep the label window open, so no need to invoke the command over and over. When I add more equations, I just refresh the window as necessary. But I got stuck with some stupid coding problems. 1- Easy to grep the tex file for lines containing a \label command plus some context. E.g. the following command outputs line number, plus the \label line, plus two nonempty lines following it: sed -n -e "/\\label/{=;N;N;G;p;}" | sed '/^$/d' | sed 's/^$[0-9]+$$/\n\1/' 2- Easy to save all this info into a file fileName.lbl and do some rudimentary html-ization (just add <p></p>'s to separate the labels from each other- you can do much better I know, but this is fast) 3- Not so difficult to replace each "\label{...}" with the javascript link. But I got stuck when writing the osascript. Let me explain. Is is easy to create a link such that, when I click on it, TeXniscope is activated (e.g.): <a href="javascript:TextMate.system('open -a TeXniscope', null);"> TeXniscope</a> Nice! So I said, I'll just insert an osascript telling TextMate to insert the label reference: <a href="javascript:TextMate.system("/ust/bin/osascript -e 'tell app \"TextMate\" to insert .......'", null);">\labe{...}</a> (of course, "....." must be replaced in both places with the \label's name, using some bash, and some string must be joined etc etc) This doesn't work. Why?? even the simple <a href="javascript:TextMate.system("/ust/bin/osascript -e 'tell app \"Finder\" to activate'", null);">Finder</a> does not work. This must be some escaping trickery. Could some pious wizard explain what's wrong? and even better, like the idea so much to code it? I do not think it should be hard (for you :). Regards, Piero

help: shell commands in HTML

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi, somebody help me, I guess it takes just a look at this code to spot what's wrong (for you): --------------------------------------- <html> <head> <script> function letsTry () { TextMate.system("/usr/bin/open -a /Applications/TeXniscope", null); }; } </script> </head> <body> <span id="letsTry"> <a onClick="letsTry()" href="#">Let's Try</a></span> </body> </html> --------------------------------------- I put this in a p.html file. I then create a command in TextMate that does " cat p.html " and outputs to HTML. The HTML appears, but of course clicking on the link does nothing, not certainly opening TeXniscope as hoped. Documentation(s) perused, sleep hours lost. Any idea? Piero

List of files when a folder in drawer selected?

by Takaaki Kato

Hi, It would be cool if I could see the list of the files contained in the folders on the main window when folders in project drower are highlighted. Currently, when the folder is selected, the main window continues showing the file I'm currently editing. Even when no files are open, which means that the drawer and the main window, the window shows nothing but the large TextMate icon. It would be great if we could get a list of the names of the files containted in the folder. Additional information such as the date created and the date last modified would be nice. This, I belive, helps those who use long file names as well as people who use similar prefix for file names. Takaaki -- Takaaki Kato http://samuraicoder.net

Another Subversion Commit Broken

by Ryan Powell

My subversion bundle "Commit" command stopped working - I get the following message: /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Subversion.tmbundle/Support/svn_commit.rb:12:in `require': no such file to load -- /Users/ryan/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/bin/shelltokenize.rb (LoadError) from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Subversion.tmbundle/Support/svn_commit.rb:12 I've searched the archive and I've seen a couple of similar threads, and like some of them, this also only seems to apply to commit (I can still use the diff commands). Maybe I'm missing something, because the recommendations I found didn't work or didn't apply. I've added TM_SVN (/usr/local/bin/svn) to my TextMate shell variables, and I tried adding it to my .bash_profile and changing BASH_ENV in the preferences. The other recommendations centered around the version of Ruby, and I'm running Tiger and have version 1.8.2 already installed. I'm running TextMate version 1.5.3 (1258), and have the latest subversion bundle installed. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Ryan

Lucky Linking Trio

by Brett Terpstra

These are my three variations of the "Lucky Linking" idea, where the command searches Google with the selected text and returns the "I'm feeling lucky" result as a link. I have modified all three commands so that they require no extra support files, but they do require some standard libraries that I made assumptions that everyone would have. If I'm wrong, let me know. The Get Title from URL variation is just an improvement on iamrice.org's version. The regex is a little more flexible, and it returns a link with a title attribute. The Google modification incorporates the Get Title command and grabs the title from the "Lucky Link", using the updated regex, and inserts it as a title attribute in the link. The Wikipedia version goes a few steps further and scrapes the pages with a quick regex to determine if it's a final destination or another search page (or disambiguation page). It provides a dropdown menu when there are multiple results. It will also detect if there is a redirect and put the correct link and title into the link while leaving your original text alone. This should allow you to quickly see if it got off on the wrong track. I am no good at either programming or regular expressions ;-). I do my best to fool people. But I am eager to learn from my mistakes, so if you do take the time to look at these, please give me as much feedback as you can. I'll lap it up like a puppy. Cheers! Brett

Re: [TxMt] Split the project drawer?

by David Rogers

Mark, Thanks for the advice. I rarely use the drawer buttons due to the Ctrl-Click functionality; everything is duplicated in the pop-up menu anyway. The problem I've been experiencing originated from trying to create a group from files and folders within a top-level folder reference, which probably conflicts with the 'Groups can't exist in Folder Reference' rule; Textmate doesn't make the logical jump to create a top-level group. This does represent desirable behavior, however, as it would be conducive to one's workflow to have both folder refs _and_ groups, just not intermixed. I'm not sure how Allan has implemented the data structures for Groups and Folders in the Project Drawer, but they're probably the same base type and TM does a quick type/class check to ensure Groups don't get mixed in with Folders. While I can definitely see the use of both, I haven't quite gotten a grip on how Groups are created, I think. I can't find anything in the GUI that allows me to create an empty Group, although the GUI supports creating an empty Folder. Of course, this has to do with the tie that Folders have to the filesystem, but the ability to create an empty top-level Group and populate it with file references would be nice. Then again, I haven't really found a way to duplicate file / folder references, either, once the groups have been established. That stuff might just still be on the drawing board.

Thanks, Allan. Any reason, programmatically speaking, that Textmate couldn't handle both file/folder references _and_ groupings? I've encountered quite a few instances in my most recent projects where this feature would be more than a little handy. Certainly one can work around it, though.

Split the project drawer?

by David Rogers

Hi, I'm another (mostly) happy (more like nigh-elated) textmate user. Does anyone recall this thread? How about this comment regarding multiple panes in the Project drawer: > You can't currently do anything nearly so complex. > You CAN make groups of files, however. > > Just select a few files and the "group this stuff" command is it the > little widget menu at the bottom of the drawer. > > This can actually speed textmate up quite a bit if you're working on > a remote volume. Does anyone know of any conditions that would prevent files from being grouped? I've been trying to select a number of files for grouping, and encountered no success. I've selected files in the same folder reference, different folder references, files and folders in the same and different folder references, everything I can think of. The "Group Selected Files..." option in the widget / ctrl-click menu, however, is always grayed out (disabled). Any suggestions? David

Filtering request for "Wrap Selection as Link" HTML command

by Glenn Batuyong

When creating documents to validate with the XHTML doctype, the ampersand character in any URL needs to be escaped as an HTML entity & ...TextMate will perform this automatic transformation on copied items when you select text and use the "Wrap Selection as Link" command. It takes the clipboard contents, filters it, and uses the result as the default URL in the link. However, if the URL from the clipboard already has escaped ampersands, TextMate will transform the entity as &amp; Clipboard Example: /some.php?option1=foo&option2=bar When the Wrap Selection as Link command is issued wtih this URL stored in memory, you get something like the following: <a href="/some.php?option1=foo&amp;option2=bar" target="_blank">some link</a> TextMate's default behavior may need to be adjusted so it checks for escaped ampersands in a URL before attempting to transform it.

The file association war

by Trevor Harmon

I've installed TextMate, BBEdit, and XCode, and I seem to be caught in the crossfire of a file association war. Example: TextMate wants to be the editor for Fortran 90 files (.f90), but BBEdit wants to be the editor for Fortran 77 (.f77) files, and XCode wants to be the editor for plain old Fortran (.for) files. Does that make sense to anyone? What I'd like to do is remove all of BBEdit's and XCode's associations, thus leaving TextMate as the editor for just about everything (because it's set up to open unassociated files). Is there an easy way to do that? I know of a program called RCDefaultApp that can show the associations for a given app, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do a "bulk unassociation," just one by one. Is there a better way?

EOL shortcut

by Dave Winzler

Up until a few days ago I've used ctl-rightArrow to move to the end of the current line in TextMate, and shift-ctl-rightArrow to extend the selection to the end of line. Now it seems those commands move to/ select the next word, and are the same as opt-rightArrow and shift- opt-rightArrow respectively. It's entirely possible that I changed something on my end, but I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing this? I'm using TextMate 1.5.3 (1258), and this started happening about two cutting-edge versions ago. FWIW, ctl-rightArrow (and shift version) still work the way they should in my other programs like Mail.app and TextEdit. It's only in TextMate that they act weird. - Dave

Remind Bundle

by Mark Eli Kalderon

I am very happy to see remind being supported. (Thanks, Haris!) I have two comments/observations, though. First, though it is good practice to scope commands, there is a reason to leave the display of your calendar unscoped. As it stands, these receive the scope of source.remind. That means in order to view your calendar, you need to navigate to your remind file(s). If they are unscoped, you can view your calendar on the fly while working on unrelated files. Second, about the Remind-->Show-->This Month command. Why not use the rem2html command? The output is more readable, and anyway it seems odd to have html output of text---all that is being added is the nice header. A screenshot for comparison and an alternative monthly command can be found at: http://www.kalderon.demon.co.uk/Remind.html (As anyone may gather from the screenshot, term here in London begins in October.) All the best, Mark _________________ Mark Eli Kalderon Department of Philosophy University College London Gower Street London WC1E 6BT Dept webpage: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/philosophy Personal wepage: http://www.kalderon.demon.co.uk

Web preview and PHP files

by jose.campos+tm＠galacsys.com

Hi, I just had a glance at HyperEdit <http://www.tumultco.com/HyperEdit/> It allows web preview of PHP pages. It would be very nice that TextMate allows it too. Is this on the todo list? Or did I miss a step? Anyway, I still be faithful to TextMate ;-) Bonne soirée, -- Jo <W:00°04'37" ; N:47°15'36"> 1....'....12.....'....24.....'....36.....'....48.....'....60.....'....72

quote highlighting bug

by David Beckwith

Hi, I would like to report a minor bug. When editing a *.rb file, text in quotations (double or single) appears green. I think there must be a parser in TextMate that detects quotes, which sets off some flag indicating that we're within quotes, which then causes that text to be displayed as green. However, I think instead of detecting all quotes to set off the flag, Allan should detect non-escaped quotes. For example, open("http://www.myspace.com/").read.match /<form action=\"(.*?)\"/ # Code from here on down appears green as though it were still within quotes even though it was an escaped quote inside of a regular expression context. Okay, that's my two-cent contribution to the world. I hope it really is worth at least two cents. Great program! Keep up the great work! David :) http://www.dbitsolutions.com/

bug? pasting in overwrite mode

writing man pages

by Lewis Overton

I've been working on man pages for a bash script. It's been kind of a pain, mostly because I don't know the formatting commands well enough. TM has made so many other tasks easier, so I've wondered about using it for man page writing. Or ... what are other people doing so write these pages. I know there are dedicated editors, but learning another editor isn't where I want to spend my time. Maybe that's the best answer. That's why I'm asking this obviously knowledgeable group. A man writing bundle? A different editor? Suffer? Give it up and switch to ... no, I can't go on. ;) Lewy

Sorry, Allan, the new functionality doesn't buy me anything and it took away something I've being using since I switched to TextMate a year ago. There are probably people that benefit from the sub-word jumps, but I select to EOL/BOL way too often to want to give up the shortcut.

Consistency between apps is really important to me, and TextMate does different things with shift-ctl-arrows than the other apps I live in (like Mail, textarea boxes in Safari, and TextEdit). So I either have to live with TextMate's inconsistency or keep modifying TextMate's KeyBindings file or messing with iKey to map my keypresses into something that works with TextMate. BTW, what is TextMate's official "select to EOL" shortcut anyway? - Dave

Feature request for "Convert Selection to Entities" command

by Glenn Batuyong

Even with the pervasiveness of XHTML, some web developers forget that the XML specification only defines five built-in character entities and most of the converted named entities that TextMate produces actually break some apps that rely on this strict interpretation. It would be convenient if there was another conversion command that would use the numeric ISO character in place of the named entity. For example, instead of of converting a ' character to ' the proposed command would output ’ ...and – would instead be – I would assume that TextMate would need to store an updated HTML -> XML lookup table to do this, similar to the old command.

GTD Bundle Commands not working

by Adam Potthast

Has anyone else had problems with "Active GTD List View" and "Export to Geektool" in the GTD bundle following the last couple of Textmate updates? When I run Active GTD List view I get the following error: /tmp/temp_textmate.H0K13x:78: undefined method `pre_match' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /tmp/temp_textmate.H0K13x:74:in `each' from /tmp/temp_textmate.H0K13x:74 from /tmp/ temp_textmate.H0K13x:70:in `each' from /tmp/temp_textmate.H0K13x:70 from /tmp/temp_textmate.H0K13x:67:in `each' from /tmp/ temp_textmate.H0K13x:67 Export to Geektool throws up a different error that I can't copy and paste, but it appears to be missing the 'pre_match' method as well. Regular GTD List view still seems to work fine. Thanks, Adam

Committing with SVN Bundle

by Bryan Liles

When committing with the SVN bundle, you have to manually deselect any file that you don't want to commit. This is fine if the list of files that has been updated is small, but when dealing with a list of over 30 updated files, deselecting 29 files is a bit tedious when you only want to commit one file. I'm asking the SVN Bundle maintainer to add a button (or two) at the top of the commit dialog to allow the ability for "Select All/Deselect All" thanks.

various little ruby indentation/folding annoyances

by Patrick Gundlach

Hello all, I am using the ruby bundle a lot, and I like it so much! But there are some annoyances where I have to decide between using TM/folding or rewriting my code. IMO the editor/grammar should not be confused by correct ruby syntax. I am using the latest textmate (downloaded today, 1258) and don't have any changes to the ruby bundle. I know, I could fix these in my copy of the ruby bundle, but I'd like to see the fixes in the distribution. Thanks in advance, Patrick -------------------------------------------------- lines=%{a b # <--- I'd like to have no indentation here on 'reindent' c} # missing folding marker lines.collect do |line| line end.class # missing folding marker tmp = lines.somemeth { |l| l.upcase }.foo # missing folding marker, wrong indentation a = myvar.each do |x| x.foo end def baz a=case foo # missing folding marker (or the one at the end is one too many) when :b # and incorrect indentation c when :d e end end --------------------------------------------------

XCode bundle command to share.

Here is a command that i added to my XCode bundle to set a breakpoint in the front most file. Note that this assumes that the project is open in XCode. Thanks for the help on this list to make this work. In case you are wondering why the name of the file and not the path name.. The file reference type for XCode uses the name of the source file only. #!/usr/bin/env ruby # import the frontmost opened project window in Xcode proect = %x{"#{ENV['TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT']}/bin/find_xcode_project.rb"} named = File.basename(proect) xCodeProject = named.sub(/\.(xcodeproj|xcode|pbproj)\/?$/, "").chomp %x{osascript -e 'tell application "TextMate" set myName to name of front document end tell tell application "Xcode" tell project named "#{xCodeProject}" set bp to make new file breakpoint with properties {line number:#{ENV['TM_LINE_NUMBER']}} set file reference of bp to file reference named myName set enabled of bp to true end tell end tell'}

TODO bundle running slow

by Dave Baldwin

Tried to use the TODO bundle and it was taking an age (10s of seconds) to give me a result. Some puts in the command code showed it was parsing all the text files in the directory and sub directories that the project file resided in. These files are a super set of the ones in the project draw - I only expected it to search in the project specific files. As a contrast using the 'find in project command' to search for TODO returns instantly. Dave.

Find in Bundle Editor

by Jeremy Bernstein

There seems to be a bug in the Find function within the Bundle Editor. 1. Launch TextMate 2. Open the Bundle Editor 3. Navigate to, for instance, the C Grammar 4. Perform a Find for "function.c" 5. Perform a Find for "prototype" 6. Close the Bundle Editor and/or the Find window, reopen and try again. 7. Make a sad face Sometimes, if I close both the Bundle Editor and Find windows, it works, but usually not. Oh, I just did an archive search and see that this was reported in January. Well, maybe it was forgotten? *bump* Cheers & thanks - this software is really great. jb

Conditional insertion help

by guerom00

Hi all, I made some snippets using conditional insertions for my declarations in Fortran. For example, I have this one : real*${1:8}${2: a/d}${2/(,a)|(,d)/(?1:llocatable) (?2:imension)/}${2/,a|(,d)/(?1:)/} :: ${3:name}${2/,d|(,a)/(?1:)/} $0 which does that : http://guerom00.free.fr/clutter/Cond_insert.mov What I would like to do is, in the “allocatable” or “dimension” case, that the caret goes between the braces after I type in the name. In the snippet definition, that would be to somehow define a $4 key but I really don't know how to do this... Any help is much appreciated :-) PS : Once again, due to my poor knowledge of RegExp, if anyone has some suggestions/improvements for this snippet, he is quite welcome :-D

What for: Sound Files in TextMate

Navigating Documentation

I recently acquired TextMate 1.5.3, and am overall very pleased with it. However, I am running OS X 10.3.9, and several bundles do not work correctly.

Avoiding hidden menu items and buttons

by Michael Henry

Hi, As I've been using TextMate, I've noticed that some of the features are, in my opinion, unnecessarily hard to discover. Certain menu items are hidden from the user unless the user presses the option modifier key while holding the menu open. Pressing option causes one of the existing menu items to change meaning. For example, the Edit menu of TextMate has a "Paste Previous" command that converts to "Paste Next" when option is pressed. The Text menu has the command "Execute Line Inserting Result" that converts to "Execute Line and Replace With Result" when option is pressed. This makes it harder to discover the available commands in TextMate because the user must know to press option in order to see these hidden menu items. As a recent Mac switcher, it was a couple of months before I realized OS X menus had this hidden capability. Besides making features harder to discover, hidden menus are harder to select with only the mouse because the user must press "option" to have the items available for clicking. Also, IIRC, there is additional difficulty assigning keyboard shortcuts to these menu items (I don't remember the details, but I thought there was something about this on the TextMate mailing list). On a related note, certain buttons on dialog boxes are hidden in a similar way (for instance, the Find dialog's "Replace" button converts to "Replace in Selection" when option is pressed). There are no visible indications that the buttons are dual-purpose; indeed, the user may never know they are there unless he stumbles over them (as I did) by accidentally pressing option while the dialog box is open. Would it be possible to avoid using hidden menus and buttons in TextMate? Other than trying to keep the menu length a little shorter or the dialog box a bit smaller, I've not come up with a benefit to hiding these items from the user, and in my opinion there are several benefits to making them visible all the time. Thanks for your consideration, Michael Henry

Yes, it is immediately possible.

If they are hidden in section 5.2, fewer people will actually use them -- which is a pity. I have given the help some more thought and I think that also one chapter about customizing the LaTeX bundle is missing. Somehow I haven't come across a good documentation on how to edit bundles, something like a HowTo is definitely missing. For me, the most helpful kind of documentation is one that explains by example (e. g. Samba by Example). So I would suggest to write HowTo sections on `Getting Started', `Big LaTeX Projects', `Customizing The LaTeX Bundle'. I would be willing to make additions of my own. Ok, that's all for now. Max

How to match recursive blocks when begin goes over two lines

by Andreas Pardeike

Hi, I am slowly adapting to the language defs. Great. Now, I am having difficulties to specify recursive blocks for a language. So far, I got it working pretty good for things like ----------------- %function foo() { %{ %} %} ----------------- as I created a matcher for {%..%} that calls itself and thus the matcher for the function which for simplicity I state here as begin = '%function .* \{' end = '%}' will match the last %} and not the previous one. Cool. Now, how do I allow for this case: --------------- %function foo() { %{ %} %} --------------- I can't get it to work even though I know that the matcher only matches whole lines. The language I try to define is an obsolete old IBM mainframe macro language called Net.DATA (please, don't ask why). So a block starts either as '%keyword_and_more {' or as '% keyword_and_more\n{' and always ends in '%}'. Is it possible to define this? I assume that I need to define two rule sets to simulate the two states and then either start in state A or B and do the recursion within each set. Right? Andreas Pardeike PS: If you like, you can see my current definition: { scopeName = 'source.netdata'; fileTypes = ( '' ); foldingStartMarker = '%.*\{|%(?i:if)'; foldingStopMarker = '%\}|%(?i:endif)'; patterns = ( { include = '#embeddedstuff'; }, { name = 'source.netdata.comment'; match = '^%\{.*?%\}'; }, ); repository = { embeddedstuff = { patterns = ( { include = '#shtml'; }, { include = '#netdata'; }, ); }; netdata = { patterns = ( { name = 'keyword.control.netdata.conditional'; match = '%(?i:if|else|endif)'; }, { name = 'keyword.control.netdata.include'; match = '%(?i:include).*'; }, { name = 'keyword.control.shtml.include'; match = ''; }, { name = 'source.netdata.block'; begin = '(%\{(?i:macro)?)'; end = '(%\})'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'keyword.control.netdata'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = '#embeddedstuff'; } ); }, { name = 'source.netdata.function'; begin = '(%function\s*$([^)]*)$)\s+(\w+$.*$)\s*(\{)'; end = '(%\})'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'keyword.control.netdata'; }; 2 = { name = 'source.netdata.function.type'; }; 3 = { name = 'source.netdata.function.name'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = '#embeddedstuff'; } ); }, { name = 'source.netdata.block'; begin = '(%.*?)\s*$.*$\s*(\{)'; end = '(%\})'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'keyword.control.netdata'; }; 2 = { name = 'keyword.control.netdata'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = '#embeddedstuff'; } ); }, { name = 'source.netdata.block'; begin = '(%.*)\s?(\{)'; end = '(%\})'; captures = { 1 = { name = 'keyword.control.netdata'; }; 2 = { name = 'keyword.control.netdata'; }; }; patterns = ( { include = '#embeddedstuff'; } ); }, ); }; shtml = { name = 'source.netdata.embedded.shtml'; begin = '(?='; patterns = ( { name = 'keyword.control.shtml.include'; match = '(?i:include.*?=".*?")'; } ); }; }; }

Blue screen?

by Bob Sidebotham

When doing multiple finds, the textmate window goes a light shade of blue, and then stays that way unless I search backwards. How do I turn this off, and what is it supposed to mean? I've looked in the manual, and don't see anything about this (not under Find). Thanks, Bob Sidebotham

Missing "require" in ruby web preview

by Paul McCann

Hi, my glacial migration to ruby continues: I've been dipping into the TextMate book and noticed that ^H should bring up doc refs for ruby keywords. Unfortunately using the command (in build 1252) just threw up a tooltip complaining about "url_encode" being an undefined method. I think that the file web_preview.rb in TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib needs to have the following pasted in after "require erb" : include ERB::Util Well, that fixed the problem for me. Cheers, Paul

OCaml Syntax Highlighting

by Jeremy Cowgar

Greetings, I believe there is a problem in the OCaml syntax highlighting. It has to do with: let xxx = 10 and yyy = 20 If you want it to color that correctly, you have to: let xxx = 10 and yyy = 20 Can someone verify? I have posted two screen shots: http://lifewithchrist.org/OCaml_tm.png <- wrong way http://lifewithchrist.org/OCaml_tm_correct.png <- right way Notice on the first image, how the vars turn italic and purple. But also notice how the try statement below does the exact same thing. Jeremy

Collaborative Editing

by Derek Belrose

I was at a local Mac Users Group meeting last night and during the Q&A session, they were writing down all Q&A's using SubEthaEdit. The one cool thing was there was 2-3 people writing this stuff down, populating URLs, etc. I read Allan's "Future" posting, but I saw nothing about it and was wondering if TextMate would ever get this cool feature? It's probably the only thing I'm left wanting at the end of the day. Thanks! Derek

Large projects?

by Bob Sidebotham

I would like to be able to use Textmate with very large directory trees. I have a tree that has well over 100,000 files in it, and when I try to open the top-level directory, I get the spinning beach ball. I end up having to terminate Textmate, losing any other open sessions. The behavior I'd like is for Textmate to only look at the top level directory, and to browse into lower level directories as I open them. I *think* that it is actually trying to read in the entire directory tree, but this is not a good idea in this case (my file system also happens to be NFS mounted). Any chance of supporting this in the future? Has anyone else run into this? Thanks, Bob

help with perl search/replace for paragraphs

by Oliver Taylor

I'm using a perl search/replace string to re-format documents into HTML. I'm using the following for regular paragraphs: s/^[^\n\t\<].*/<p>$&<\/p>/g; That takes care of single-line paragraphs like this: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. This is just like what you'd get from Markdown, paragraphs separated by a blank line are wrapped in a paragraph tag. But I'd like to add a rule that looks for paragraphs that have hard-breaks in them, like this: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. and wrap them in markup like this: <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, <br /> consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do <br /> eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore <br /> et dolore magna aliqua.</p> The key is finding lines that end only to be followed by more lines in the same paragraph. My RegEx-fu is okay, but not great, so I've come close, but I can't get it right. Thanks in advance.

TODO question (duplicate entries)

I tried to track down the other files. I could not find them until I read about using 'find in project'. They were inside a directory with the suffix .texp which was generated it appears by texshop. The files were in a 'soft links' subfolder. Deleting this directory (which must have been generated in the past) solved my duplicate entry problem. Thanks, Christopher Brewster

Feature Request: same behavior as Xcode + TextEdit

by Andreas Pardeike

Hi, can we get the same end-of-text-click behavior as in Xcode, TextEdit and BBedit? I am talking about this: (1) If you click in the empty area at the end of a text document, the text cursor jumps either into the last line exactly vertical to the clicked position OR (2) The cursor jumps at the very end of the text. Most apps in MacOS X do it the (2) way. TextMate does it the (1) way. It is simply annoying. Just a comment for an otherwise great app, Andreas Pardeike

script arguments/input

by eriksf＠hypersonik.net

Switching to TextMate is slow

by Colm McMullan

Hi, I'm running build 1215 on a MacBook and whenever I switch application into TextMate it takes a few seconds before the application becomes active. For those few seconds the application is just frozen (although it buffers keypresses and executes them when it becomes active). This is very annoying :) Anyone able to help? Thanks, Colm

String Formatting and TM Snippets

by gwendy

I'm fairly new to TextMate, and completely new to Snippets, so I may be asking something overly ambitious for a newbie. If so, I beg your indulgence ;) I'm working on a snippet which will automate the creation of versioned tables, a la the acts_as_versioned plugin[1]. I've started with a tab trigger which will paste in the outer self.up and self.down definitions. Following the example in the "for ... in ... end" snippet, I've figured out how to have my specified table name repeated throughout all the appropriate places in the snippet. So all ready, what I've got is a huge key-stroke saver :) But obviously, an ideal snippet would go further yet. Here's what I've got: def self.up create_table :${1:table}s do |t| t.column :version, :int $0 end ${1/./\u$0/}.create_versioned_table do |t| t.column :${1:table}_id, :int t.column :version, :int end end def self.down drop_table :${1:table}s drop_table :${1:table}_versions end EOS As you can see, the snippet currently fills in a couple of default columns for both my main table and its versioned partner. Is it possible to then begin typing in column definitions for the primary table (where the cursor currently ends at $0), and have those columns mirrored in the versioned table below? Thanks in advance for any pointers someone can offer! Gwendy [1] http://ar-versioned.rubyforge.org/

Nested snippets

by Emmanuel Turquin

Hi, I just started creating my own snippets, and was wondering if it's possible to write 'recursive' snippets. Let me give an example: say I use the banner snippet from the source bundle: // ========== // = Banner = // ========== I'm currently in the $1 tab, and instead of 'Banner', I want to use another snippet, triggered by base<TAB> and which will extend into, say, "All your base are belong to us". // ======== // = base = // ======== <TAB> // ================================== // = All your base are belong to us = // ================================== Once this second snippet is completed, I then go back to the first one, where I left it. This far, I haven't found such a nested scopes option in the snippet syntax, but since I'm a newb I may have missed it. If this feature really isn't available, I think it'd be a valuable addition (even though the example I gave is completely phony). We could imagine a special syntax indicating wether the current tab is in protected mode - as it is now - or if it can be subject to other triggers. For example, $1 and $$1 resp. What do you think of it? Regards, Emmanuel

Minor update request to Python Bundle

by Steve Lianoglou

Hey there, Can we update the Python Language definition in order to add folding markers for python docstrings (particularly for long function docstrings)? Since there is an explicit beginning and end marker for these, I reckon this should be pretty easy, but I'm not sure how to add it in the face of that foldingStartMarker regex I see in the Python bundle (I have the latest one from SVN). So, the convention (from what I understand) is this: A long doc strings for a function looks like so: ----- python code ------- def my_function(param1, param2): """This function does xyz There is some long documentation here ... ... ... blah blah ... .... """" # real python code here ----------------------------- So, something like adding a fold start and stop marker for """ could do the trick (the indentation levels should be the same for start and stop """ when folding is necessary). Of course you can have this: ----------- def my_function(param1, param2): """Short docstring"""" # real python code here ---------- So I don't know if that will hose it any, but I'm guessing it would be ok since you can one-line { .. } code in languages that have brace begin/end block markers. Thanks, -steve

Defining own language based on php + html?

by Andreas Pardeike

Hi, I have the following meta language which uses the tags <php>...</php> and <htm>...</htm> to embed php and html. Now, I would like to write a custom language module that builds on the existing descriptions of php + html but I cannot get it to work due to the 2 level recursion that can occur. Here's an example that I would like to format: -------------------------------------- <span value="prefix"/> <php> print($foo); <htm><span value="cool"/></htm> </php> <span value="foo"/> <php> print($bar); <htm> <span value="test1"/> <php> print($test); </php> <span value="test2"/> </htm> print($extra); </php> <span value="suffix"/> -------------------------------------- The outmost context is html and everything can be embedded in each other in many levels. Is this possible? I got close but i.e. I have problems using include "source.php" because it expects <?php as a start tag. Is this *very* complicated? Andreas Pardeike

Changes: * parsing for the function statements to catch 'global proc' and 'proc' better * preference to allow function names to be put into the symbol list * moved global out of keyword.control.mel to keyword.other.mel * made all scopes point to mel Take what you want and feel free to point out where I made errors.

I don't think this is something you can keep up with the increasing complexity. Thus, I don't think it's a good idea to constrain yourself in such a way. Instead, you could design one section to be read thoroughly and then let the rest be what it is: a manual. > How about a cheatsheet instead?

LaTeX bundle: all references included in drop-down menu in the bottom

by Max Lein

After installing the latest LaTeX bundle, I have noticed that *all* labels are now included in the drop-down menu in the bottom instead of just the section labels. Since I usually have 40+ citations in my papers and notes, the drop-down menu has been rendered unusable. Is there any way to fix this? Max

Ctrl-S wrapping warning

by guerom00

OK. The title is terrible... Sorry... This is a feature request. When I search a word in a file with ⌃S, I would like some warning (either a sound, or so...) when the search starts again from the beginning of the file I hope I make myself clear... :D Thanks in advance :)

repeat scratch macro

by Andreas Wahlin

I sometimes find myself reformating big chunks of code (html) and then i usually build a little scratch macro, and then i just hit shift +command+m lots of times to go through the code. while this works, is there an easy way to say something like "do this until end of file" or simmilar? perhaps make the macro dependant on finding the next text string of something until the end or something? andreas

Abysmal typing speed problems with LaTeX and spellchecking

by Christian Bogen

Hi, I've been experiencing this for quite a while now but until now had no time to dig into the matter: With "Check Spelling as You Type" I'm experiencing abysmal typing speed problems when working on LaTeX documents. It only happens when I'm working some in already existing paragraphs, *not* when typing at the end of the document. I can actually see single letters appearing one after another in slow- motion. Very annoying! Once I turn off "Check Spelling as You Type" everything's back to normal, but it lacks a lot of convenience ... It this a known problem? Does anybody else experience these problems, too? (I'm working on a 12" PB (1st gen., 867 mhz) maxed out with 1.12 GB RAM. It's plain text with a bit of markup so the machine *should* be up to it ...!) Christian

Blogging bundle: Movable Type category support?

full python folding?

by Andrew Jaffe

Hi all, I was wondering about the status of 'full' support for folding in python? The current implementation based on blank lines, spaces, etc., doesn't quite work for me. I understand that the 'folding engine' as it is can't really handle python's indentation model -- but is some support in the cards? Andrew

Bug: minor - Install 'Edit in TextMate' command fails

by Andrew Durdin

Minor bug report: In my .bash_profile I have GREP_OPTIONS=-Hn so that the output from grep always includes the file name and line number (more often than not I'm searching multiple files). However, this caused the "Install 'Edit in TextMate'" command to fail, saying: Error The input manager ((standard input):2:/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/Resources/Edit in TextMate) was not found in the TextMate application bundle. You may need a newer version of TextMate. Once I realised the source of the error, working around was straightforward; if you think it needs fixing, the simplest way is probably just to change the first line of the script in the plist from: SRC="$(ps -xwwp $PPID -o command|grep TextMate.app|perl -pe 's/(.*?.app).*/\1/')/Contents/Resources/Edit in TextMate" to: SRC="$(ps -xwwp $PPID -o command|GREP_OPTIONS= grep TextMate.app|perl -pe 's/(.*?.app).*/\1/')/Contents/Resources/Edit in TextMate" Cheers, Andrew

Folding phpDoc comment blocks

by George Crawford

Hi, I can't get folding to work for phpDoc comment blocks. The reason is that the closing marker is seen by TextMate as being indented by one extra space. phpDoc blocks start with /**, each commented line starts with a space and a *, and the final line starts with a space followed by */. Is there any way to get folding to work in this case? TIA _________________ George

Recreating bbinclude in TextMate?

by Ken Anderson

Hi, After a quick search of the TextMate Wiki and archives of this list, I am writing to ask about TextMate's ability to support a useful feature related to BBEdit's support for creating websites. In particular, BBEdit has a feature called "bbinclude" that allows one to insert statements like   into an HTML file. You can then "update" the host file and BBEdit pulls in the text from the referenced file and includes it in the host file. For instance, my footer.html file looks like this: <div id="footer"> <p>© Kenneth M. Anderson, 1998-#YEARNUM#.</p> <p>Last Updated: #SHORTDATE#; #TIME#</p> </div> and when I run the update command, it generates text like this:  <div id="footer"> <p>© Kenneth M. Anderson, 1998-2006.</p> <p>Last Updated: 08/01/06; 3:43 PM</p> </div>  I love TextMate and use it for a variety of tasks, including the creation of HTML pages, BUT, I miss BBEdit's bbinclude functionality. Is there anyway to recreate this functionality in TextMate? I'm currently using simple snippets with tab triggers to mimic a portion of this functionality but sometimes I'd like to update multiple sections of an HTML file at once and tab-triggered snippets are not sufficient to address that need. In addition, I'd love to have the ability to update all the HTML files contained within a TextMate project with one command. Possible? Suggestions / feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Ken -- Kenneth M.

Remote project

by Hadrien Lanneau

Hi, I usualy work on remote files by opening them with Transmit. When I worked with BBEdit, theses files were opened as tabs in a single windows as the project windows of TextMate. But i don't think it's possible to do this directly in TM. I have to create a new Project, open my files, and them by drag'n'drop in the project. It would be nice to decide if files open in a tab window and it would be very nice if we could open directly remote files from TextMate. Merci. :) Hadrien Lanneau HomeWorks() { -> http://www.hadrien.eu; } Podcast() { -> http://www.AltI.info; } Services() { -> http://www.altnetvision.info; } Chat with me() { -> iChat/AIM/MSN : hadrienl(a)mac.com; -> Jabber { moi(a)im.hadrien.eu; hadrienl(a)gmail.com; } }

HTML and PHP Include Question

by Derek Belrose

Good evening, If I were to add an extra "tag" for foldingStartMarker and foldingStopMarker in the PHP bundle, am I under the assumption that it would be read by the HTML bundle when TextMate sees it inside the <?php ?> region? When I am editing a PHP file and set the bundle to PHP, the folding marks show up. But, when in HTML mode and use the same markers in the PHP region, the folding marks are no longer appearing. Am I doing something wrong? Or do I need to do something else? Thanks

Converting RHTML to Markaby
