I was wondering if it was possible to use xelatex in place of latex from within Texmate (using the LateX bundle)? Would it be as simple as using directives such as: %!TEX TS-program = xelatex %!TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode Or doing some other manual edition of the bundle code? Thanks!

Possible to add on to language instead of "overwrite"?

by minimal design

I've looked through the docs but can't figure it out... I'm trying to add CSS3 stuff to the default CSS bundle, but I don't want to touch the original bundle off course so in my own bundle I try something like: { scopeName = 'source.css.mcss'; fileTypes = ( 'css', 'css.erb', 'less'); foldingStartMarker = '/\*\*(?!\*)|\{\s*($|/\*(?!.*?\*/.*\S))'; foldingStopMarker = '(?<!\*)\*\*/|^\s*\}'; patterns = ( { name = 'meta.selector.css'; begin = '^(?=\s*[:.*#a-zA-Z])'; end = '(?=\{)'; patterns = ( { name = 'entity.name.tag.css'; match = '\b(article|aside|audio|canvas|command|datalist|details|embed|figcaption|figure|footer|header|hgroup|keygen |mark|menu|meter|nav|output|progress|rp|rt|ruby|section|summary|time|video|wbr)\b'; }, ); }, { include = "source.css"; } ); } and I get all the new elements highlighted like they're supposed to, but that "cancels out" the standard CSS elements. I thought adding the "source.css" would take care of that but obviously it doesn't... Do I have to include the standard elements back into the regex? Is there a better way? Thanks for any pointer in the right direction!

Textmate doesn't remember the current working directory

by Stefan Schmidt

Hello, when I save a file in Textmate it doesn't remember the directory. The path in the save as dialog is always set to the root directory (/). Textmate: Version 1.5.9 (Revision 1589) System: Mac OS X 10.6.4 (10F569) It might have something to do with NSNavLastRootDirectory as the following tweets indicate: http://twitter.com/davybrion/status/21932571235 http://twitter.com/scott_to_s/status/21937812511 NSNavLastRootDirectory gets written upon termination of Textmate, but after restaring it gets set back to the root directory. Cheers, Stefan

pandoc bundle

by Dan Lussier

Hi, I just recently downloaded the Pandoc bundle from GitHub, but have run into the following error message when I try any of the 'Convert to...' scripts in the bundle: /tmp/temp_textmate.U3BOyu: line 12: pandoc: command not found However, I do indeed have pandoc on my system. I built the pandoc library from source, but have added the necessary directory to my PATH variable. Are there any future modifications that I need to make to shell variables accessible to TextMate ? Thanks! Dan

Launch Current File with Ruby at Terminal

by Tom Wardrop

Hi All, I'm currently just starting to get into TextMate on my Mac, and E-TextEditor on Windows. One thing I'd like to be able to do is launch the currently active ruby file in Ruby at the terminal, as opposed the to the default "RubyMate". I essentially want a command prompt to open and the following command to be run: /path/to/ruby "/path/to/current/ruby/file". Does anyone know of a simple command to do this so I can add to my Ruby "bundle". Note, I want to manually specify the path to my ruby executable in the command. I don't want to use the Ruby version bundled with TextMate. Cheers, Tom

utility to navigate through errors.

by Afflictedd2

Hi everyone, I have a small program that detects errors and outputs their presence in a file "error.txt" with the following format: <Error> found in line 84 <Error> found in line 98 <Error> found in line 129 <Error> found in line 300 <Error> found in line 620 <Error> found in line 1000 I was wondering can I build something (macro? command?) that will help me navigate through this errors, without me going manually to each line. Like when textmate displays errors where you can just simply click on a link to jump to that line number.

Support for PHP Alternate Syntax

by Timothy Mackey

Hi, is there any support in TextMate for PHP's Alternate Syntax? e.g. Regular Syntax: <?php if (1 == 1) { //Output } else { //Output } ?> e.g. Alternate Syntax: <?php if (1 == 1): //Output else: //Output endif; ?> At the moment, I can't find a way to get code-folding working with the alternate syntax, and I would also like to be able to set TextMate's TAB auto-complete to use the alternate syntax.

Help! Need to recover lost bundle

by DZ-Jay

Hello: I was editing my bundle in the Bundle Editor of TextMate, and I inadvertently hit some key combination that caused my entire bundle to get deleted. The worse part is that I can't seem to be able to restore it! Where are TextMate's bundle settings stored? I used Time-Machine to restore the preferences file and the bundle package from a back up, but this did not restored it. Please help, dZ.

Closing an open file in tab overflow?

by Joe Lapp

How do I close a file that is open but that doesn't have a tab because too many other files are open with tabs? These are the files that appear when you click on the double-arrow to the right of the tabs. I keep clicking on the window's close button and closing all my files. (Grrr!) Ideally, when I'm editing a file, its tab would appear at the top of the window, displacing some other tab, so that I have an X button to click and a clearer picture of what file I'm editing. I'm in a habit of looking at the tab for the name of the file, but it's only sometimes there. I know it's consistently in the window's title line; because it's usually in the tab, I'm not making a habit of looking at the title line. Thanks for your help! ~joe

Textmate cannot find Ruby gems

by Cary Swoveland

I need help getting Textmate to find gems. I've spent quite a bit of type researching the problem, but being new to both OS X (Snow Leopard) and the use of Ruby gems, I can't seem to figure out what the problems are. Many others have had similar problems, but their solutions don't seem to fix my problems. (Among other things, I did read Section 8--Shell Commands--of the Textmate manual.) I expect it largely has to do with the setting of environmental variables, but that's just a guess. A secondary--and no doubt related--problem is that Ruby cannot find the gem active-record when invoked in a terminal (or in irb), as shown below. I've tried entering a TM_PATH shell variable in Textmate preferences, but that hasn't helped. Here are some possible clues. No doubt I have provided some unnecessary information and have left out important information. I recently used RVM (Ruby Version Manager) to reinstall Ruby. From a terminal I then ran gem install xml-simple gem install sqlite3 gem install activerecord They all appeared to install OK. Then I wrote the following short script (test.rb): ************ #!/usr/local/bin/ruby # Ruby 1.9.2 require 'rubygems' print 'Gem.path = ' puts Gem.path print 'ruby_description = ' puts RUBY_DESCRIPTION require 'xmlsimple' require 'sqlite3' require 'active-record' ************* When I run test.rb in a terminal I get: ************* MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ ruby test.rb Gem.path = /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0 /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global ruby_description = ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0] <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require': no such file to load -- activerecord (LoadError) from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require' from test.rb:12:in `<main>' ************* When I run Ruby test.rb from within Textmate (cntrl-r), I get: ************* Gem.path = /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1 ruby_description = ruby 1.9.2dev (2010-07-02 revision 28524) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0] LoadError: no such file to load — sqlite3 method require in test.rb at line 11 method <main> in test.rb at line 11 copy output ************* (If I have <require 'active-record'> before <require 'sqlite3'>, I get the same message, with 'active-record' substituted for 'sqlite3'.) Notice that xmlsimple was found when running test.rb from a terminal, but not with cntrl-r in Textmate. See below (near the end) where I think Textmate found xmlsimple. Next I ran irb: ************* MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ irb /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/irb:4: warning: Insecure world writable dir /Users/cary in PATH, mode 040777 ruby-1.9.2-p0 > RUBY_DESCRIPTION => "ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0]" ruby-1.9.2-p0 > Gem.path => ["/Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0", "/Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global"] ruby-1.9.2-p0 > require 'xmlsimple' => true ruby-1.9.2-p0 > require 'sqlite3' => true ruby-1.9.2-p0 > require 'active-record' LoadError: no such file to load -- active-record from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require' from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require' from (irb):1 from /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/irb:17:in `<main>' (ibr's message, "warning: Insecure world writable dir /Users/cary in PATH, mode 040777" is something I should look into as well.) ************* (It makes no difference if I precede the above with <'require rubygems'>.) and then back at a terminal: ************* MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ ruby -v ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0] MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ which ruby /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/ruby MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ echo $PATH /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin: /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global/bin: /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin: /Users/cary/.rvm/bin:/usr/local/bin: /usr/local/sbin: /usr/local/mysql/bin: /usr/bin:/bin: /usr/sbin: /sbin: /usr/local/bin: /usr/X11/bin MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ ls /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0 bin cache doc gems specifications MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ ls /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/gems activerecord-3.0.0 arel-1.0.1 ffi-0.6.3 rake-0.8.7 tzinfo-0.3.23 activesupport-3.0.0 builder-2.1.2 i18n-0.4.1 sqlite3-0.1.1 xml-simple-1.0.12 MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ ls /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global/gems MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ ls /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems libxml-ruby-1.1.4 xml-simple-1.0.12 ************* The last line suggests to me that, from Textmate, Ruby is using an old version of xlm-simple.

After update of latexmk, TextMate is still using some old version

by Marius Hofert

Dear TextMate users, I work with textmate 1.5.8 (1505) under Mac OS X 10.6.2. I installed the latest version of latexmk (version 4.11) and tested it in the terminal, works like a charm. I then tried to compile a .tex document with latexmk via TextMate. If I click the button "Show Latexmk.pl Messages" I can see which version of latexmk is used. It turns out that some old version is used (version 3.21j of 2 December 2007). After that I changed the variable "TM_LATEX_COMPILER" explicitly from "latexmk.pl" to "/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/scripts/latexmk/latexmk.pl" --- still the old version is used. I have no idea where this old version is located and how I can force TextMate to use the new one. The new one is correctly installed, I can use "latexmk foo.tex" from everywhere on my system. How can I tell TextMate to use the correct version of latexmk? Cheers, Marius

"Scratchpad" memory in TextMate?

by Charles Turner

Hi all- I'm writing a command where it would be really great to preserve a string for later use by other commands. I'm assuming there no way to define a environment variable (like LAST_STAMP or something) that could be set from a command, would persist, and could be read from a later invocation of another command? Any other kind of scratchpad memory that I could take advantage of? (I realize I could write a small file somewhere.) Many thanks in advance! Charles

Bundles. How to: enable IDE style autocomplete ( function name + parameter snippets )

by Aldo Bucchi

Hi, I have a list of functions ( thousands ) for a certain proprietary language and I would like to enable some sort of autocomplete in textmate but that works similar to Eclipse's, IDEA's, etc. in that it allows you to 1. Search or autocomplete 2. Once you select the method, you get a "snippet" template so you can tab around the parameters I imagine lots of people have tried this and I am also afraid that there is no simple solution. What's the best path here? FYI. The library consists of around 2000 functions. Regards, A -- Aldo Bucchi @aldonline skype:aldo.bucchi http://aldobucchi.com/

Mail-Markdown-HTML-Mail error

by Christopher Eliot

I thought this workflow should work, but it’s running into trouble: I open a new message in Apple Mail. I type the keyboard command for Edit in TextMate. I write a simple document in Markdown. I use the Markdown bundle command to convert to HTML. I use the Mail bundle command Send HTML as email via mail. I get “Syntax Error: Expected end of line but found property (-2741)" Problem seems to occur whatever the language grammar is set to. I’m using TM version 1.5.9, with updated bundles. I didn’t find a mention of this in the archive. Thanks very much for any suggestions about a fix or a better workflow.

Re: Change caret width

by Daniel Geese

Hello, thanks for the help, I have tried yoursuggestions and it helps. But maybe it could be put in the next version as a possible feature, it would be useful for people writing texts in textmate, especially when using a screenwriting mode. Best, Daniel Is there a possibility to change the width of the caret so that it would appear to be a blinking rectangular? _______________________________________________ Not that I know of, but you might at least try to turn on the "highlight current line" preference: go to Preferences General tab Check "Visual Ornaments: Highlight current line" You can then move over to the Fonts & Colors tab and pick a background color for the current line. Also, the shortcut Command-L is good for centering the current line vertically in your window (if it's possible). Between those two, I can usually find my current line. I realize that's only one dimension, and you were hoping for two. I don't know of anything to help you locate the current column, short of doing something manual, like pressing Shift-RightArrow to make a selection that would stand out. Not what you were after, but that's the most hope I can offer. I betcha, if challenged properly, one of the wunderkinds of this list like Hans or Ciarán can whip together a plug-in that does just what you're looking for. But that task is not for me. +dru
