Hello everyone,
On my french AZERTY keyboard, some keys are dead by default. This
includes the ‘^’ key and is necessary for circumflexes such as î or
ê. However, when in math mode, circumflexes are seldom needed; in
math mode, I'd rather have the ‘^’ not dead, in order to easily type
exponents. Worse, in fact TM behaves strangely when one tries to type
a character which can't be circumflexed, it doesn't display anything:
when typing ‘^{’ on my keyboard, nothing appears.
So I though the easiest solution would be to override the ‘^’ key
with a snippet in scope string.other.math.latex, but the shortcut
doesn't seems to work. Any other solution?
Oh, and while I'm at it. I found it really useful to bound a ~
snippet to alt-space - ~ is a dead key too on my keyboard. I was
wondering if it was worth including this in the LaTeX bundle. And the
X ~> \Xi command completion is lacking in my version of the package.
Why is that?
As always, thanks for your help,
Édouard
Hey guys,
I am right now trying the out TextMate and it seems pretty awesome.
I do have a Problem with using my old pything files with TextMate. They are
all indented by whitespaces and not by tabs. So when I add a new line with
TextMate, the python script won't run anymore, since TextMate indents by
using tabs.
So I would either have to convert my python scripts to use tabs or tell
TextMate to use whitespaces.
How would I achieve one of the above?
Regards,
Samy

Some frequent discussion topics on this list are:
1. How do I use TextMate's cool project features when my directory is
on some other machine? Or…
2. I've created a TextMate project out of a directory on some other
machine, but now Subversion is broken. Or the extremely common…
3. I've created a TextMate project out of a directory on some other
machine, but every time I switch to TextMate, there's this huge delay.
I've had all of these problems myself and have developed a bundle to
work around them.
<http://kendra.oit.gatech.edu/remote_project_bundle.zip>
The intro in the bundle's documentation sums it up nicely:

## About This Bundle
### The Problem
You want to work with files in a TextMate project on the local
filesystem (for speed, Subversion compatibility, and other reasons),
but the files you're working on are useless unless they're on some
remote machine. This is most common with web based projects where the
code only works on a sever that has been configured in a particular way.
### Who This Bundle Is For
This bundle is meant to support a workflow where all (or almost all)
changes are made locally using TextMate, while all (or almost all)
viewing/running/testing of those changes will be done on a remote
machine (such as a web server).
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
For more details, run the bundle's Help command. If anyone uses this,
send suggestions to me or to the list. I'd like to go through a
couple of feedback and improvement cycles before submitting it for
consideration as an "official" bundle. Thanks.

Hi,
i'm using mySQL Version 14.12 Distrib 5.0.41, for apple-darwin8.5.1

The \href{URL}{text} command of the hyperref package doesn't get
scoped correctly, I think. URL receives the following scope:
text.tex.latex
meta.group.braces.tex
meta.reference.label.latex
constant.other.reference.lable.latex
Shouldn't it rather receive:
text.tex.latex
meta.group.braces.tex
meta.function.link.url.latex
markup.underline.link.latex
Small thing, I know, but it affects syntax coloring and it means that
you cannot launch the URL with ⌅.

I was just writing an e-mail, which is scoped as Markdown, and got an
error when trying to convert something to lower case using ⌃⇧U. I
discovered that ⌃⇧U is bound to "Update References" in the
Markdown2Book bundle. It probably needs to be changed to something else.

I didn't "switch" to Apple... my OS did.
I'm curious about the reiationship between textmate projects and the
subversion bundle.
I've had occasion to commit changes in a Textmate project, then go to
the terminal in the working directory and svn info shows me at a
previous revision, but doing svn up just reports that I'm now at the
latest revision.
Is this an artifact of the way I set the project up?
I have to admit that I'm still a bit confused by JEG IIs description
of two types of text mate projects in the book. I never managed to
understand what he was saying about the difference.
I think now that it's not really that there are two types of projects,
but two types of relationship between items in the project and the
filesystem.
When I first set up my first existing rails project as a textmate
project, I picked File>New Project and then dragged the individual top
level items from the finder to the textmate project pane, so the top
level of the project has the standard rails folders: app, components,
config, db ...; and two files README and Rakefile.
I think this means that the directories are folder references and I'm
not sure what the difference, if any there is for the two top level
files. I just changed README in textmate and saved it and it
certainly seems to be directly changing the file in the rails project
directory. So just what is the difference? I think that the real
difference is between a folder reference and a group inside a textmate
project, Yes?
And I guess that I really want to restructure the project so that it
has one toplevel folder reference which is the rails project
directory.

My blog on Ruby
http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/
I tend to use snippets a lot in textmate because they help me
standardize my data (text files, reports, blogs, wiki pages, code,
etc). I wanted to know if there was anyway (or any planned features)
that would allow the use of a temporary snippet, so that someone can:
1. while working in a file goto a blank line
2. type in some snippet code
3. highlight the code
4. hit a key combo to copy the snippet into a temp register/key that
can then instantly be used in the document.
For example, say I'm writing a document that has is starting to use a
bunch of citations:
"Begin with the name of the author, moderator, or other responsible
person or organization, if available, followed by the date of
publication, the title of the site, the URL, and the date of access.
(ex: American Chemical Society. (2006). Chemistry.org. http://
www.chemistry.org/portal/a/c/s/1/home.html (24 Mar. 2006).)"
So on a blank line I type:
$1. ($2). $3. http://$4 ($5).
I then select the text, and copy it to a temp register[1], (perhaps
with a fixed tab trigger, or hot key) and now I can quickly call on
it to populate the rest of my document.
This would save me time without having to goto snippets, create a new
snippet, assign a name, key combo, code, etc, then use the snippet,
and after I'm done with the document, go back in and delete the snippet.
I find I love the use of the snippets, but sometimes a formating
issue is only needed once, not enough to warrant creating permanent
snippets.
[1]: If there were 3-4 registers, then that would be even better.

I'm really missing the ability to diff two files that I've selected in
the project drawer from the context menu, coming from an IntelliJ IDEA
background (now doing Ruby work).
Currently I have to do option-shift-apple-D, and then press 4 (??)
I see from an earlier post that you can't add things to the context
menu from a Bundle.
Is there anything into the works to add diff functionality into the
context menu for the project drawer? I can see at least two scenarios
that would be big time-savers:
Select modified file:
1) diff with saved version
Select two files:
2) diff between these files (regular and HTML) options, order same as
selection order

Changes:
added: to get allEnvironmentVariables an option variables to output
only these values
added: close allAuxiliaryWindows (very useful for developing ;)
added: close allFloatingDocumentWindows
changed: do closeAllWindows to close allWindows
added: get openDocumentFiles (for all opened floating windows)
added: set/get frontMostDocument (one can edit more than one document
with one script)
added: to get openProjectFiles the output option format=mate;
changed: get openProjectFiles output option escape is renamed to
shellEscape
added: do openFileInNewWindow
added: do revealFileInFinder
added: do openFileWithFinder
added: show alertSheet
Regarding to show alertSheet: I tried to get rid of it within
TMDIALOG but I had some problems to get the return value out. Maybe
it can be done in TMDIALOG 2.0 to show an alert in a sheet attached
at the current window.
I attached two examples:
editAllFloatingWindows:
This will resize and arrange all floating windows, and inserts into
the first line the html escaped file name. Finally it will show an
alert sheet.
reopenAsProject:
This will put all floating documents into a new project (for me very
helpful ;); close all floating windows; and open the front most
document in the project. This also works if only one window is open.
Please note: these are ONLY examples for showing what can be done.

When I try and add a date to an action in the GTDAlt bundle, I get the

Any clues on how to sort this out?
This has happened several times today. I'm using the "cutting edge". I
believe it has happened consistently (at least twice) when I did the
following: if I enter a "(" in the middle of some text, e.g., before the "s"
here:
method_namestuff_after
so it becomes (after TM fills in the right parenthesis)
method_name()stuff_after
TM then goes into an infinite loop, taking all the CPU time and doesn't come
back, at least not before I kill it.
I'm using the Ruby Experimental bundle and MacBook Pro (i.e., Intel CPU), OS
X.4.

Hi,
can anybody tell me how to use the file selection dialog in a ruby script
with the --select-only-directories option?
i tried:
folder=Dialog.request_file(:'select‑only‑directories' => "")
next i tried:
folder=Dialog.request_folder()
after adding to file dialog.rb :
def request_folder(options = Hash.new,&block) # added by PV 13.10.2007
_options = default_hash(options)
_options["title"] = options[:title] || "Select Folder"
_options["informative-text"] = options[:prompt] || ""
_options["text"] = options[:default] || ""
_options["select‑only‑directories"] = ""
dialog("fileselect", _options,&block)
end
On page 140 of Textmate by James Edward Gray II it says:
"You may pass any other options supported by CocoaDialog"
thanks,
Peter

Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
I've just started using TextMate for perl editing and I noticed today
when I opened up a file that this line of code confusing the syntax
coloring...
if ($link eq '' || $user eq '' || $user =~ / / || $link =~ / /) { ... }
TextMate saw a string starting at the first ~ and never stopping.
I looked through the bundle and I found what seemed to be the problem
here...
{ name = 'string.regexp.find.perl';
match = '(?<!\\)((~\s*)?\/)(\S.*?)(?<!\\)(\\{2})*(\/)';
captures = {
1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.string.perl'; };
5 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.string.perl'; };
};
},
The \S there is matching any non-whitespace character so it doesn't
like the space character being used between the //. I changed that
match line to this and it seems to have fixed it for me...
match = '(?<!\\)((~\s*)?\/)([\S| ].*?)(?<!\\)(\\{2})*(\/)';
Is there any reason that's not a wise change to make?
Thanks for any info,
Dallas
Hi all,
I think I’ve finally managed to get a statically linked build of
SVNMate working, which means that it should work on any system
without problems. Maybe.
Apologies if you tried to install it previously and had problems.

Hi,
would it be possible to add support to the
chktex semantic LaTeX checker? it's a nice
program that checks for structural errors
in the latex file and is able to spot errors
in many situations (unmatched braces etc).
It is more advenced than lacheck and last
version 1.6.3 compiles perfectly on Mac OSX.
The ideal would be to produce an HTML view
with links to the offending lines (and to
have an additional button "Chktex" alongside
"Re-Run pdflatex"... etc
Thank you,
Piero
Hi,
I 'finished' the recoding of TMTOOLS. If someone has a bit time
please give me a feedback about the functionality, bugs, wishes, etc.
Please note: The version 0.9 is still beta, i.e. please be careful
while testing it. By myself I use it every day while working, and it
helps me a lot; at least for me ;)
I also wrote a tentative help file for it very quickly.
To install the plug-in download it, uncompress it, and double-click it.
http://email.eva.mpg.de/~bibiko/downloads/textmate/
TMTools.tmplugin.zip (111kB)
(it should be universal - if not please give me a hint)
For help have a look at this page (utf-8 encoded!)
http://email.eva.mpg.de/~bibiko/downloads/textmate/tmtoolshelp.html
or type in an empty TM document (after installing ;):
"$TMTOOLS" help me
and press CTRL+R
A short demo:
http://www.bibiko.de/TMTOOLS_demo_01.mov (10MB)
Up to now TMTOOLS contains 106 shell commands which interact with TM.
some examples:
"$TMTOOLS" get windowOriginAndSize
"$TMTOOLS" get currentWord '{only=tail;delimiter=" ():.";}'
"$TMTOOLS" set spellCheckerLanguage '{to=en_GB;}'
"$TMTOOLS" set windowSize '{width=100;height=200;}'
"$TMTOOLS" set grammar '{to="Ruby";}'
"$TMTOOLS" call template '{name="From Clipboard";}'
"$TMTOOLS" show projectDrawer '{onEdge=0;}'
"$TMTOOLS" complete usingDictionary
'{lang="da";showInternalListFirst=yes;}'
"$TMTOOLS" use nsstring '{initWith="たてもの";
toGet="canBeConvertedToEncoding:"; with="8"; }'
The command "$TMTOOLS" do onKeyDownAfterDelay is still experimental.
I tested it a lot, and it works.
This command installs an event manager which will execute any shell
command after a delay of X seconds if no other keyDown event occurs
within X seconds.
The following example will save the current document in /tmp after
5sec if there is no further key pressed. (A kind of AutoSave function
while non-typing)
If one presses ESC (stopkey=53) one destroys that event handler. For
more details see help.
Furthermore it can be used to display suggestions for the code
completion à la XCODE (see demo).
"$TMTOOLS" do onKeyDownAfterDelay "{
delay="5";
repeat=no;
startAtCall=no;
shell='\"$TMTOOLS\" get textString > /tmp/\"$TM_FILENAME
\".txmtbkp;say \"document was saved\"';
stopkey=53; }"

Hi,
I finally got a macbook and Textmate about a month ago, primarily for
ruby/rails development.
I looked at the various screencasts, and the one on the rails bundle
shows some features like the mdct (migration drop and create table)
and mrac (migration remove and add column) which use schema.db to
generate code in the migration's down method to recreate the table or
column being dropped or removed.
The rails ruby bundle which came with TextMate doesn't seem to have
these. I did find what seems to be the bundle demoed on the
screencast at the syncPeople web site, and installed it, but it seems
to replace the 'standard' bundle which came with TM (the names differ
though).
What's the status of this/these bundles?
By the way, I wrote another mini-bundle which has one command which is
a 'magic' snippet for adding an item to a rails test fixture. It also
works by reading db/schema.db
The code for the command in the bundle can be found in an article on
my blog. I had planned to add the bundle as a resource to the
article, but it seems that typo(my blog engine) doesn't seem to
support uploading bundles.
The article is at
http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/articles/2007/10/09/my-first-serious-tex…
I'd appreciate any feedback on this textmate command.

Hi,
I wonder if it would be possible to tell TM (2.0) to execute a
specific tmCommand on some events like:
-TM starts : execute a autostart script
-TM quits : before quitting execute a script
-TM looses its focus to an other App
-TM gets the focus
-for each TMPROJ, specify an autostart script and a shutdown script
Maybe also:
onRightMouseDown
onLeftMouseDown
etc.
This behaviour could be set in TM's Preference.
Esp. if one develop a plug-in for TM one has to restart TM very
often, and it would be nice if my window settings (code documents,
bundle editor opens with the last edited item, etc.).
I tried to write a plug-in for that, but for me it's a bit tricky. I
got rid of onOtherMOuseDown, etc. but to start a script if TM starts,
well I have no idea to do that because no document is open if the
plug-in will be initialized. Or has someone an idea?
Regards,
--Hans
Hi,
I don't know if someone else is interested in this, but the TMTOOLS
plugin has very nice side-effect ;)
Now I can write quite easily my own dialog/menu/monitor in HTML,
meaning a tmCommand with output 'ShowAsHTML', with my favorite tasks.
see demo: http://www.bibiko.de/TM_HTMLDIALOG.mov (1.5MB)

I've been using pdfsync with Skim, and notice that every time I hit the key combo for pdfsync in TM, Skim reloads the document (this is obvious because Skim now displays a progress sheet). Would it be possible to avoid telling Skim to revert the document unless it's actually changed? That would speed up syncing quite a bit, I think. Skim's displayLine command should handle opening it if necessary, also. If I stare at textMate.py a bit more I might be able to figure it out on my own.
thanks,
Adam
I was a long-standing user of emacs for my LaTeX documents, and I
have recently switched to TextMate, but I miss some features of
emacs. In particular:
pressing TAB in an environment (or in math mode, or inside
parenthesis) move the cursor out of the environment (math mode,
parenthesis). In addition pressing tab when in sub/superscrit takes
the cursor out of the superscript and removes the curly brackets if
the sub/superscript contains a single character.
For inserting symbols I were used to the RefTeX way, i.e., pressing a
key (` in the original setting and ! in my customisation) followed by
a letter produces a (LaTeX) symbol. So for example typing !a produces
\alpha and !A produces \forall.
I wonder if there are ways to replicate the behaviours in TextMate.
All the best

I'd like to automate the date entries for a journal I write in "LaTeX"
and have come up with this snippet:
\subsection{${1:`date +%A`, `date +%d` `date +%B` `date +%Y`}}
which gives me the date as follows in my files (example):
\subsection{Wednesday, 10 October 2007}
It works--that is, it gives me the spaces I want between the elements of
the date, but it looks cumbersome to me to invoke the date command
repeatedly to get these spaces and I wonder if someone could supply a
more elegant way to get the same result.
Thanks.
