I get the error below when I try to run a command lookup (control- shift-option L) in Markdown mode. I never did a Plugins checkout (and don't know how to do so). What's the best way to fix this? Thanks, Ernest tm_dialog: you have updated the tm_dialog tool to v6 but the Dialog plug-in running is still at v4. tm_dialog: either checkout the PlugIns folder from the repository or remove your checkout of the Support folder. tm_dialog: if you did checkout the PlugIns folder, you need to relaunch TextMate to load the new plug-in. /Users/ernest/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/ dialog.rb:34:in `initialize': No such dialog () (TextMate::WindowNotFound) } for command: /Users/ernest/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/ Support/bin/tm_dialog -a -p \<\?xml\ version\=\"1.0\"\ encoding\= \"UTF-8\"\?\>' '\<\!DOCTYPE\ plist\ PUBLIC\ \"-//Apple\ Computer//DTD\ PLIST\ 1.0//EN \"\ \"http\://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd\"\>' '\<plist\ version\=\"1.0\"\>' '\<dict\>' '\ \<key\>details\</key\>' '\ \<string\>\</string\>' '\ \<key\>isIndeterminate\</key\>' '\ \<true/\>' '\ \<key\>summary\</key\>' '\ \<string\>Asking\ Google\ for\ the\ link\</string\>' '\ \<key\>title\</key\>' '\ \<string\>Feeling\ Lucky\</string\>' '\</dict\>' '\</plist\>' ' ProgressDialog.nib from /Users/ernest/Library/Application Support/ TextMate/Support/lib/dialog.rb:17:in `new' from /Users/ernest/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/ dialog.rb:17:in `dialog' from /Users/ernest/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/ progress.rb:39:in `call_with_progress' from /tmp/temp_textmate.Qqxuxz:5

[Todo Bundle] Patch to ignore certain folders

by Ryan Wilcox

Hello all, Let me explain my use-case first. One of my projects uses code from an open source group, and I have this code in the same TM project as my group's own code. This works great, except when I run the TODO bundle. TODO picks up all the notes from the open source group, stuff really not relevant to my particular work - I just want to see notes for my group's code. You could use this to skip over log files/folders too, or whatever else you wanted in your TM project but not looked at by TODO. To accomplish this goal I modified the TODO bundle to skip over files whose path matches a TODO_IGNORE_PATTERN grep. The patch is attached, I hope this is useful to other people (and/or makes it into the todo bundle in subversion ;) ) Hope this helps, _Ryan Wilcox -- Wilcox Development Solutions: <http://www.wilcoxd.com> Toolsmiths for the Internet Age PGP: 0x2F4E9C31

SQL bundle can't find MySQL to 'execute line/selection'

by Mike Stickel

I just started looking more into the SQL bundle and using it to execute the statements I'm creating but I keep getting an error in the results display saying that it can't find mysql — and it, of course, lists all the places it looked. Is it possible to set the mysql path in the shell variables or is there something else I have to do so TM can find my mysql?

Finding lines that DON'T match

by Tobias Jung

Hallo, I've got a file with a LOT of lines that match the following regular expression: ([0-9]+);([^;]+);([0-9]+);([0-9.]+);\n But within that file there are a few lines that don't match (in various ways) and I've got to find those lines. Is there a way to tell TextMate: "Find everything that DOESN'T match the given regular expression"? Kind regards, Tobias Jung

GTDAlt doesn't sync at all to iCal

by Niels Kobschätzki

Hi! I just wanted to start using GTDalt but the iCal-sync just gives the message that it will take a while and ends w/out any errors after a few seconds. In iCal is now one additional calendar called GTDalt and that's it, not one for each context specified in TM_GTD_CONTEXTS. Does anyone have an idea how I can hunt down the failure or what I'm doing wrong? Niels

tm_dialog ...

by Wild Karl-Heinz

Hello list, I thought I'd like to work through some screencasts today. I was interested in tm_dialog with the Interface Builder. Now there are some problems in my environment. First there was a problem that I use version 5 and I should have used version 6. I've copied the tm_dialog from /Library/Application Support/... into the Textmate.app/... When I call tm_dialog test.nib/ with an very early version out of the screencast it doesn't show an empty window?! Could someone give me a hint? Thanks. Regards Karl-Heinz

prefixing TM_PROJECT DIRECTORY in applescript

by xolela＠mac.com

Within a snippet, I am trying to prefix the $TM_PROJECT_DIRECTORY to a file name in applescript (but I am not sure how TM environment variables & files are concatenated into the applescript world?). In essence, the file textmatetostata.do is created (from textmate) by default in the $TM_PROJECT_DIRECTORY. The problem is that when stata activates it cannot find it - since it opens in a different directory by default. What I am trying to do is as below: (but this is failing!) query=${TM_SELECTED_TEXT:-$TM_CURRENT_LINE} echo "$query" > textmatetostata.do osascript -e "tell application \"Stata\" activate open POSIX file {$TM_PROJECT_DIRECTORY} & \"textmatetostata.do\" end tell" - thanks danstan

LaTeX Bundle: Syntax highlighting in `\section` comand

by Aaron Jacobs

I've found a problem with the syntax highlighting in the LaTeX bundle. I use the Cobalt theme, and normally the argument of a citation command such as `\citeauthor` appears in purple. However, I have the following line in a document I am writing: \section{\citeauthor{kager:1999}'s analysis} The arguments to section commands normally show up gold-colored for me, and "analysis" appropriately does so here. However, the `kager:1999` part also does, which I believe is incorrect since it is not part of the actual section title but rather a bibliography keyword and thus should be purple. Not a huge problem, but I wanted to point it out. I would fix it if I had time to learn TextMate's grammar system -- as I said, I'm currently writing a paper. :-)

Blogging bundle and ExpressionEngine

by Jackie Chappell

OK, I seem to have answered my own question :-). In case it helps anyone else, here are the steps I needed to take to get the Blogging Bundle working with ExpressionEngine (1.5.1). There are two problems with using the Blogging bundle with EE. The first is that the blog id is not in the same format in the endpoint URL as standard metaweblog endpoint urls. It looks something like this: http://mydomain.com/pathtoEE/index.php?ACT=25&id=1, where id=x is the blog id. The second is that the date format returned by XMLRPC isn't parsed properly by the the ruby parser.rb (I'm using ruby 1.8.4), because it has a Z on the end of the time string. So, to fix it, make the following changes: 1. Edit /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/xmlrpc/parser.rb (the path may be different depending on where you installed Ruby), line 87 to read: if str =~ /^(-?\d\d\d\d)(\d\d)(\d\d)T(\d\d):(\d\d):(\d\d)Z?$/ then Note the extra Z? near the end of the regular expression. 2. blogging.rb, line 167 onwards: if @endpoint =~ /#(.+)/ @blog_id = $1 elsif @endpoint =~ /&id=(.+)/ # EE format of blog id in endpoint @blog_id = $1 else @blog_id = "0" end That seems to do the trick for me. It would be sensible to copy the Blogging bundle and save the new one under a new name, and with a new UUID in info.plist, I guess. Hope that helps anyone else using EE. Jackie

problem with R interaction [was math bundle feature request]

by Christof Janssen

Hello, My first enthusiasm got an immediate stopper. After switching the language environment to English and installing the newest version of R (2.40), I was able to calculate 100^2 using the R bundle command R > Console > Execute Selection. Here is the result: 100^2 [1] 0 > Now, I wanted to do the following calculation 1/1e-1 and thats the answer: 1/1e-1 Fehler: syntax error > Of course the same calculation leads to the correct result when done in the R console. Does anybody on this list have an idea what happened here? - Obviously I have not entirely got rid of the German localization in R. But is this likely the problem? Now it appears to be an error message generated by R rather than by AppleScript or whatsoever. I am lost. May be, I need to trash R entirely, which I thought I had. Or is there an alternative way to go (without R). Which bundle should I look up if I wanted to write my own bundle for doing very simple math (I don't know anything about ruby etc)? JJ

Summary/Plug for LaTeX in TextMate

by Charilaos Skiadas

I recently sent an email to the MacTeX mailing list, in response to someone's question about what each editor for LateX has going for them. It is a long post talking about some of the major things in the bundle, so I thought it might be of interest/useful to some people in this list. Appended: Haris A lot of these things are documented in many places, so to begin with I will add some links to resources, and then will talk about some of the things it can do well, IMHO. 1. First and foremost, there are a number of screencasts I've done, along with blog posts, a lot of them on the LaTeX bundle. They are here: http://skiadas.dcostanet.net/afterthought/list-of-my-textmate-pages/ Also see here for more TextMate screencasts: http://macromates.com/ screencasts 2. The online TextMate manual is a key resource of information. There you can learn about: 1. snippets (http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/ snippets#snippets). These are easy to create yourself for common repeatable code (and so much more). 2. project navigation (http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/ working_with_multiple_files#moving_between_files_with_grace) 3. Find and Replace in multiple files (option regexp included) (http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/ working_with_multiple_files#find_and_replace_in_projects) 4. Navigating within a single file (http://macromates.com/textmate/ manual/navigation_overview#navigation_overview) 5. Moving text (http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/ working_with_text#moving_text) 6. Setting up your preferred color arrangement via themes: (http:// macromates.com/textmate/manual/themes#themes) Now I'll talk about the LaTeX-specific commands in TextMate. I will not refer to their shortcuts, because you can set these to whatever you like, though they do have some reasonable defaults. You can see these commands using ctrl-esc and navigating into the LaTeX bundle. The help file for the bundle is here, in markdown format: (http:// macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle/Support/ help.markdown). From within TextMate this can be accessed through the Bundle's help command. Hm, perhaps I should explain what Bundles are very briefly. There is a core TextMate program, which offers the ability to extend it by creating Bundles, which are collections of rules, commands and preferences on how TextMate should act in particular languages. In some sense a lot of the power of TextMate is in these bundles. The bundles have a very open license (http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/ trunk/LICENSE), and are being maintained by a large group of volunteers. The list of languages supported is quite extensive (http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/). The success of TextMate is largely due to this power it provides to the bundle. It is easy for people to add functionality to TextMate, in a similar way as one would add functionality to emacs or vi, with the difference that it is a lot easier for "newbies" to add functionality. Ok, on to the bundle then. First of all, you don't need any customizing to begin with. Dragging a LaTeX document onto the TextMate icon should just open it with TextMate and set you to LaTeX mode. To start a new document, you can use the Templates found under the file menu, or you can start from a scratch file. The moment you save the file with extension .tex, TextMate will recognize it as a LaTeX file and color it accordingly. 1. Now first of all, creating environments. TextMate has a command called "Insert Environment Based On Current Word", triggered by command-{ (which is command-shift-[ in US keyboards, (command key=apple key)). You can even use this without a word and it will offer you a list of environments to insert. If you type in a word first, then TM creates an environment based on this word. For instance, typing "en" or "enum" and then the command trigger (cmd-{) will insert: \begin{enumerate} \item \end{enumerate} and place the caret right after the \item thing. When you are done with the first item, pressing Enter (fn-return on laptops) inserts a newline and a new \item entry. Similar behavior for "it", "item" for itemize etc. You can further customize this list to your heart's content by using the "Edit Configuration File" command in the LaTeX Bundle. For me a typical workflow these days is using the exam class. The "words" "q", "p" and "sol", followed by command-{, produce the "questions", "parts" and "solution" environments respectively. 2. There is a similar command for inserting common commands, called "Insert Command Based On Current Word". This is triggered by command-}, and functions in a similar way. for instance "l" becomes "\lim_{}" with the caret inside the braces. Once you are done adding things there, pressing tab takes you out of the braces. 3. The LaTeX bundle offers context-sensitive completion, via the common "esc" key. For instance, when typing a command, it will complete only with respect to commands, and not every word in the text. It will use any commands you have introduced before, as well as a stock list of commands. For instance typing "\dis" and pressing escape converts it to "\displaystyle". Typing "\di" and pressing escape multiple times cycles through all commands starting with \di. On the other hand, if you are inside a \ref{}, then it completes with respect to all keys found in \label{} commands within the current document or any tex file included in your "root document" (called master document in TM). Similarly, inside a \cite{} it will offer completion with respect to all bibliography keys in your bib file and/ or any \bibitem's in your document. Also, option-esc will offer you a popup of all completion matches, similar to the BibDesk completion plugin that BibDesk offers (though I think that plugin is a lot closer to XCode style completion, anyway...). 4. Image drag and drop. You can drag and drop any image into the text, and an appropriate figure environment will be created, with the accompanying \includegraphics command. By pressing modifier keys, option or shift in this instance, you can adjust whether you want the entire figure environment, or just a simple \begin{center} \includegraphics...\end{center} thing, or the \includegraphics by itself. And these can to some extend be customized. 5. Table conversion. You can create a table by first typing the entries into rows, with columns separated by tabs, like so: one two three four five six and select it and run a command, and it will become: \begin{tabular}{ccc} \hline one & two & three\\ \hline four & five & six\\ \hline \end{tabular} Similarly, you can create a new table with a prescribed number of rows and columns. 6. Wrapping things. You can tell TextMate to wrap the current selection in a command. Suppose for instance you just typed the sentence "foo bar" and what to higlight it, so to include it in \emph. In TextMate, you would select it by pressing opt-left arrow twice, and then press ctrl-shift-w. This results in: "\emph{foo bar}" with the emph selected, so that you can type another command in its place. Pressing tab instead moves you past the closing }. There is a similar functionality for wrapping the selection in a begin-end environment pair. 7. Changing environments. Suppose you are inside a split environment, and decide to change it to aligned. In TM, you would press ctrl- option-E, and then just type in the environment name, and both \begin and \end entries get fixed. Similarly, there is a command to toggle the presence of a * in the environment, like turning {equation} to {equation*} and back. 8. Project Outline command. I recently added this command. It offers you an HTML, clickable outline of your project, much like a table of contents. Clicking on any section title takes you to the corresponding section. 9. Special Beamer setting. You can set the language grammar to LaTeX Beamer, which causes some commands to have particular behavior related to beamer. For instance, the commands inserting a new \item also add an overlay specification to it. 10. You can quickly turn a list of of lines into an itemize or enumerate environment, by selecting them and running the command ctrl- shift-L. 11. This is a general feature of TextMate that I found worth mentioning, it's very useful. It has a columnar editing mode, where you can for instance select a bunch of lines and add the same text at the beginning of each line. For instance with the three lines: foo bar baz we could move the caret at the beginning of the first line, then shift-down twice, and then press option for columnar insertion. Now typing "\item " adds it to all three lines. Ok, this is probably enough for now, but I would be happy to answer any other questions you have about TextMate. And you can usually find me in the irc channel, (irc://irc.freenode.net/#textmate). It is populated almost all the time by extremely helpful and great people (I would in fact say it is one of the great things TM has going for it).

text coloring + function declarations spanning more than one line

In C++ mode, what is the correct method to modify tmthemes such that function declarations written like : TF Funk(T1 arg1, T2 arg2) ...and... TF Funk( T1 arg1, T2 arg2,) ...or... TF Funk( T1 arg1, T2 arg2,) ..are rendered identically? or is that even possible? (TF above is the function return type, possibly more than one word to include a storage type. T1/T2 above are argument types, again maybe augmented by an additional word(s) like const or default assignments). TIA, -Shin

PSTricks problem with LaTeX bundle

by Aaron Jacobs

(This is my first time contributing, so please be gentle.) I've found a problem (annoyance?) with the way that the `Typeset & View (PDF)` command works in the LaTeX bundle. I set `TM_LATEX_COMPILER` to `latexmk.pl` so that I don't have to deal with manually running BibTeX and all that, but I also use packages that depend on PSTricks and thus don't work with pdfLaTeX. The problem is that while the command normally looks for the presence of `\usepackage{pstricks}` and then automatically uses `latex` instead of `pdflatex` for typesetting if appropriate, this does not happen if the compiler is set to `latexmk.pl`, since the rc file passed to the latter says to use `pdflatex`. I've attached a quick and dirty patch to tell `latexmk.pl` to typeset to PostScript first if PSTricks is detected, which fixes the problem. The patch also contains a modification to the PSTricks detection part to add a search for the following packages which depend on it: * [xyling] [1] * [pst-asr] [2] * [OTtablx] [3] These are packages that I personally frequently use, and it's annoying to have to manually do a `\usepackage{pstricks}` just for the sake of telling TextMate it's being used. There's probably a better way to detect if *any* package uses PSTricks, but it would be cool if this could be committed for now. Feel free to consider that a completely selfish request, though maybe there are a few other linguists who would appreciate it. :-) Aaron Jacobs [1]: http://www.ling.uni-potsdam.de/~rvogel/xyling/ [2]: http://www.math.neu.edu/ling/tex/ [3]: http://wso.williams.edu/~nsanders/OTtablx/

Re: [TxMt] BundleForge

by domenico.carbotta＠fastwebnet.it

well, I'm glad to see thomas tackle bundleforge ;) IMO, the most important thing actually is allowing for easy sharing of a bundle and quick updating of the installed bundles -- ideally just a couple of mouse clicks. easy bundle setup is trivial, and the rest is if secondary importance: the focus of the server-side development should thus be on sharing and updating. then of course you need to take care of the UI, but I'm sure you know better than me how to handle that! ;)

BundleForge: time to start?

three good reasons: * the GetBundle bundle is a solid foundation; * in the community there is no shortage of server-side programming skills and, most of all * we have ten (10!) weeks without an official release, so that we can tinker with BundleForge! so... why don't we start doing something? :P if there's any amount of python code involved, I'm ready to help!

math bundle feature request

by janssen＠ccr.jussieu.fr

Hello, I am a plain textmate user and a complete computer/programming illiterate who searches advice and input from other, potentially more experienced users of textmate. When writing latex based papers using the wonderful latex bundle I frequently want to do a quick and simple calculation. Unfortunately, this often involves other formats than those provided by the existing math bundle and I have to invoke an external calculator. Would it be possible to extend the math bundle to normal calculator capabilities? IE providing exponential/logarhithmic, power function, trigonometric functions, numbers in ecponential notation etc. ? I don't know whether others miss this feature. I would certainly welcome such extended functionality or some experienced guidance how to achieve the same functionality with existing bundles. Using the R bundle I tried to send commands to R, which I found very slow (and not what I would find useful), and also to execute R on the selection, but only to the effect of receiving an error message.

Re: C Library bundle MONSTER

by Stephen Skubik-Peplaski

I am the maintainer of the C Library Bundle. I have removed it from the repository until a better solution can be found. I apologize for the trouble I have caused, I was unaware of the current practice of discussing new bundle before adding them to the main repository and committed my changes without thinking. It was not my intention to offend any part of this excellent community. My heartfelt gratitude to those of you who defended me on this list. I hope that the C Library bundle (or a better replacement) can be made available to those who may find it useful. If any of you would like a copy, please contact me and I will make it available (probably on my .Mac account). Sincerely, Steph
