Hi, a quick question. Is there any bundle which can be used as a kind of GUI for SQLite databases? If not, is there a free Mac GUI available? Thanks, --Hans

Re: Writing a Book with TextMate

by John Laudun

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

Keyboard shortcut for moving the focus the Project Drawer to the Editor

by Alessandro Vernet

In the editor, I can do ctrl-tab to move the focus to the Project Drawer. But what shortcut can I use to move it back to the editor? Pressing tab 3 times does the trick, but it doesn't seem very optimal. Any suggestion?

another "Ack in project" TextMate plugin.

by Trevor Squires

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

Concatenating multiple Files

by marios

Hi, I often have some Project Folders with multiple HTML files. I need a Shell Script to concatenate them all together into one single file, to use in a command. Possibly to strip also Header and Body Tags. File names have consistent naming convention. Any Ideas ? regards, marios

New "Unicode" bundle in the Review trunk

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

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

Autocompletion

by Teifion Jordan

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

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

by Mojca Miklavec

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

Suggested workflows AS3: Flash/Textmate

by Alistair Colling

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

Bundle command to import from external file

by Ben Smith

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

A long em-dash (and other things)

by Will Robertson

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

xcode bundle: "Executable doesn't exist"

by Rene Christen

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

dialog.py UTF-8 problem

by Hans-Jörg Bibiko

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

Transcribing with AppleScript?

by Alexy Khrabrov

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

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

AS3 Commenting Style

by Gaby Vanhegan

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