Hello again,
NVM is a Node Version Manager. I believe it works similarly to RVM (but I’m
not sure). Functionally they do the same thing; allow you to install
multiple versions of Node (or Ruby) and switch between them easily.
For NVM to keep multiple versions in the path it adds ~/.nvm/nvm.sh to your
.bash_profile, which interns amends the "default nvm-node path" to PATH.
Like this, `which node` will return something like
"/Users/______/.nvm/versions/node/v6.2.2/bin/node".
I could simply add that path to TM_PATH, but if node versions change,
TextMate will continue using the old version (or worse).
I’m sure some of you are running into this problem. What have you done to
solve it?
Thanks,
Graham Heath
Hi all,
I've noticed that any file that has a shebang at the top (#! /path/to/exec),
is automatically set to executable when saved. Is there any way to turn off
this functionality?

Good evening everyone,
does anyone here know of some BibTeX language bundle and could point me there?
Having to edit (mostly my own … yes, I am _that_ old) BibTeX styles from time to time, I’d like to have a TM2 bundle for that. I’m talking of that nameless RPN language used in .bst files as described in chapter 4 of “Tame the BeaST” <http://mirrors.ctan.org/info/bibtex/tamethebeast/ttb_en.pdf>, not the data base language of .bib files.
Thanks!
Regards,
Martin Wilhelm Leidig

Since updating to MacOS Sierra, I get this error when trying to open files from the shell. For example:
$ mate .
objc[48814]: Objective-C garbage collection is no longer supported.
Abort trap: 6
I’m running TextMate version 2.0-beta.12.4; trying to update says I have the latest version of TextMate.

I run a lot of commands from TextMate, and sometimes they can take a long time to finish. The usual “execute line” command doesn’t return until the execution is complete, so the document (and TM as a whole) is unresponsive while waiting. I can run them in the background, but then I need a way to insert the output into the original document. My current workaround is to bring the document forward using 'mate', but that means whenever output is ready, the doc jumps into the foreground, interrupting anything else I may have been doing.
I don’t know of a way to do this, but it would be great if I could send text to a document without giving it focus… e.g. something like:
echo "some output" | mate --no-focus --uuid $DOC

Hey
I hope I'm not getting on everyone's nerves with another feature
question -- can I make it work? -- or feature request -- if answer to
previous is negative, can you make it work? :)
My question: can I change the order of autocomplete suggestions, between
'user defined' and 'default/document harvested'?
I have a pretty large list of my own completions, some global. Internal
order of these completions seems to obey the order in which they appear
on the list. Yay!
But: the document harvested completions always seem to be suggested
before any of my own completions.
I know, I can entirely disable these default completions, but I use them
as well, just that mostly, my own completions should take precedence.
[wishful thinking on] Any way to change the order between user
completions and default/document harvested completions?
If someone can think of a way that requires messing around with some
default bundle scripts: I'll happily try it, did so before. Just
suggestions requiring to build my own are problematic: tried it a few
times, never got it to work 100% cleanly.
Thanks for lending me your time, reading the above.
Hi,
is there a way to control indentation by supplying a regex for the previous line and the current?
What I want to do is indent javascript chained methods calls (every line starting with a dot, except if the last line started with a dot itself):
Thanks

Comment for jbuilder should be a #, but TM is putting a double slash. The files are Rails apps/views/<view>/xxx.json.jbuilder .
I’ve just started using jbuilder, but the hash seems to be the right one.
Can I change this? If so how?
======
Change file type to Ruby. Probably was JavaScript automatically.
Did I change it to jS or is that something TM does.
I can live with it as is.

OK, Thanks -- this does seem to work. However, I note that I've got a
LOT of bundles (and a `Support` folder) in Pristine\ Copy/. I assume
that those are all now shadowing more recent bundles, without any way to
actually tell. I think this dir was once used to differentiate the
original version of bundles from ones with edits (might it have
something to do with the old "getbundles" package?). Should I just trash
that folder? Or would it be safer for me to revert to a clean install?
And, why did this just start happening?
Andrew
Probably more complicated. I’m not sure all the things commented out with # are ignored by Rails.
I’m still trying to sort out what all the paths involved are. But that’s Rails not TM.

Dear all,
[Apologies if this gets posted twice, as I sent it to both the gmane
newsgroup and the list itself...]
I've got TM running on two machines, both updated to the most recent build.
On one machine, everything seems to be working fine.
On the other, the LaTeX bundle has stopped working correctly when I try
to "Typeset and View":
- I need to explicitly add /Library/tex/texbin to TM's path in
Prefs>Vars. If I don't, it fails looking for kpsewhich. (This is not
necessary on the other machine -- PATH is not explicitly set at all in
the TM variables window.)
- I can't "view" with anything but the TM PDF viewer (although I can
select other options from the prefs window, but it doesn't affect the
behaviour).
On both machines the bundles are set to auto-update, and appear to be on
the latest version from over the summer. *However*, if I actually look
in the bundle editor, I do see differences. For example, on the
non-working machine, there is an explicit check for kpsewhich, but not
on the other one. And, indeed, if I look at the files in
~/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Pristine\
Copy/Bundles/LaTeX.tmbundle, I do find that they are from 2010!
I also note that the directory structure of ~/Library/Application\
Support/TextMate/is very different on the two machines.
So, does this have something to do with the recent move from old Avian
folders? Or is it just an unrelated local problem? In any case, please help!

Hey again.
Second message today, but not feature related though this time. Instead,
I wanted to ask whether the License buying option from:
http://shop.macromates.com/
is still up to date / whether the money ends up at the right place?
Apologies if that sounds like a dumb question, but I felt I had to check
since the website can appear a bit *tumbleweed* in parts, so before
making a transfer I wanted to know for sure.
P.S. No nagging screen ever on my so far unlicensed (private) copy. I
only thought of registering now because I've been using TM a lot lately
(and keep bugging you people in here), and started feeling bad for not
contributing anything. While the "zero naggin" is kind of classy I must
say, may I ask what's the idea behind not reminding the user at all to
register?
TM version 2.0-beta.12.22
Did the way TM handles last window/tab position just change?
What I mean is: previously, TM remembered, for each document, the last
scrolled to position, regardless of where the caret was.
If I scrolled the document and line x was at the very top, then switched
to another tab, then back, line x would still be at the top. Caret
position didn't have any influence on this, i.e. the caret could be out
of view, and the window would still open at the line it was when I left
the tab.
Now it seems that on tab switching, the caret position defines the view,
as in: the caret is always roughly in the middle of the screen.
Is this intended? I really hope it's not, since it suddenly makes a
quick 'switching back and forth' code comparison across documents a lot
more difficult.
If it's not intended: did it break with the last update, or could it be
a problem on my side? (some variable that stores the view isn't updated
anymore in my installation... I'm just fishing in the dark here)
[+textmate(a)lists.macromates.com] since this seems to be growing into a
feature request, rather than a request for more information.
[I hope I’ve recombine-ed these emails in a sane way…]
The way Atom appears to be doing this "on change" event is by debouncing it
over 300ms. ESLint-d is a daemon implementation of ESLint. IIRC it is a
rather simple wrapper around ESLint that keeps the linter open in a
background process.
If I could get the "on change" event, I’d be happy to setup a node script
that either launches a background process ("TMHinter-d" perhaps) or
attaches to the existing background process.
Thanks,
Graham Heath

The current callbacks are:
callback.document.did-open
callback.application.did-deactivate
callback.application.did-activate
callback.document.will-save
callback.document.did-save
There is no option to monitor a document for changes in real time, doing so
would activate for every single keypress which is just too much overhead
for general use. To do this properly we need a program running constantly
in the background which isn’t really part of how bundles work.
A good example to look at that we use is the SCM Diff Gutter bundle, this
updates on save and open.

This isn’t a list, it goes directly to me only. :) If you want to discuss
things with the wider community the main TextMate mailing list is the
solution. (Or for a subset the IRC chatroom perhaps.)

Hello again;
I’ve been working on some exciting features (for me any way) for the
existing JSHinter bundle. I’ve had some PRs for small things pending for a
while, and I guess that the original author is no longer interested in the
project. No problem there, my work continues and the plugin will soon be
better than ever.
The goal is to be comparable to the (awesome) Atom Linter plugin, and as
the new author I intend to rebrand it as TextMate Linter (or something
similar).
My current issue is that Atom can lint in real time. I figure with the
gutter/marks API the front-end is ready for this. However, in my research
the only thing that seems to update without a save is spell checking.

Hi Allan,
there's a TINY issue for moving the bundle stuff from Avian to TextMate.
TM 2.0-beta.12.23 is still asking to move the Pristine Copy folder from Avian to TextMate. In my case I have an empty folder at "~/Library/Application Support/Avian/Pristine Copy" but I do not have a "~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Pristine Copy" folder. Due to that fact I get the error message that "Bundles" couldn't be moved. Maybe check simply if the destination folder exists in beforehand - if not create it.
As I said - it's only a tiny issue ;)
Cheers, Hans
Hi,
I wonder if we could have a 'Open Last Closed File' on the File menu - the
idea being it would allow a keyb shortcut to be assigned directly to it?
We can already do this via File -> Open Recent -> (first item), but afaik
this doesn't allow us to assign a keyboard shortcut specifically to the
first item
I'd quite like to be able to re-open it with something like CMD+SHIFT+T,
similar to how Chrome lets you reopen the last closed tab
Thanks
In the latest nightly build (2.0-beta.12.21) I've noticed this when
searching in multiple files:
When you click on a result in the find dialog it brings the proper document
into focus and selects the found section of the document, but does not
always scroll the selection into view.
When the target document already has focus (before clicking on the found
result)
it scrolls correctly.
But if another tab has focus, then the target document gains focus and the
selection is highlighted, but it is not scrolled into view.
Another thing is that if a result in the find dialog is highlighted
(because it is the last result that you clicked on), and you click it again
it does not take you to the corresponding document. You have to command
click to deselect it, then click it again for it to work. Double clicking
it here will close the find dialog but will not take you to the result in
the document.
Hello!
I've noticed that recent changes have broken jumping to search result
occurrences in documents which aren't the current tab. I.e. clicking on a
search result opens the document (or switches to a tab with it already
open) and puts the cursor in the correct place, but doesn't scroll the
document so that the matched occurrence is visible (i.e. so you have to
up/down arrow to move the scroll correctly).
Cheers,
David.
Hey
Is there a way to change the default modifier key that enables multiple
caret selection by mouse? Default is 'cmd'.
I already know about changing keybindings in general, e.g. from
https://manual.macromates.com/en/key_bindings.html
or
http://blog.macromates.com/2005/key-bindings-for-switchers/
but neither of them seem to work for what I want to do.
Changing it by OSX Keyboard shortcuts doesn't work either, since it's
not a key combination but modifier & mouse event. So I'm out of ideas.
The reason I'm asking is that with the current key, the multiple caret
selection is a bit 'trigger happy', and I've lost code several times in
the past without even noticing. I type something, move the caret with,
say, cmd-left arrow, select another line by mouse, continue typing. If
I'm not careful/do the above too fast, I sometimes enable multiple
carets, and start overwriting or adding code or text I didn't want to. I
eventually figure it out (usually when I my code suddenly doesn't
compile), but it always takes me a while to figure out what was going on
since I never notice that I had multiple carets active.
Long story short: If somehow possible, I'd like to rebind the 'cmd'
modifier to something like 'cmd+shift', making it less likely I enable
multiple carets by accident.
Any idea if there's a way to do that?

The issue is that XML does not allow ASCII control characters (and python checks this). XML 1.1 should allow them when entity-encoded, but both python 2.7.12 and 3.5.2 still throw an exception (for ) in my test.
The biplist is using plistlib for XML property lists, so it may actually work for binary property lists.
So when encountering this exception, you could try convert the property list to its binary form (using plutil) and see if that works.
You could also look into using PyObjC and import NSDictionary, this should definitely read the file without problems.
Thanks Allan,
plutil did the trick. In fact it could actually convert the plist file to JSON with the escape properly escaped (pun intended;)
For the records, this is what I ended up with (no need for plistlib/biplist):
def json_from_plist(path):
p = Popen(['plutil', '-convert', 'json', path, '-o', '-'], stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
res, err = p.communicate()
return json.loads(res) if not err else {}

Hi,
I have a small utility that auto-generates documentation for the commands in a tmbundle by extracting key-combo and documentation comments from the command files, see:
https://github.com/persquare/CalvinScript.tmbundle/blob/master/Support/lib/…
It works mostly well, but trying to parse a command file that contains a command mapped to the escape key using plistlib/biplist fails with an exception:
InvalidPlistException: ExpatError('not well-formed (invalid token): line 18, column 9',)
The (python) code to trigger is simple enough, plistlib or biplist doesn't matter:
try:
import biplist as plistlib
except:
import plistlib
for file in os.listdir(path_to_cmd_dir_in_tmbundle):
path = unicode(os.path.join(cmd_dir, file), 'utf-8')
pl = plistlib.readPlist(path)
