Hi!
I just wanted to ask how to use the new "`"' ?
When I type " it autocompletes to "" setting the cursor between the
two "
When I type now ` the whole thing becomes "`'" and not "`"'

How different is the Cutting Edge version from the Minor Updates version?
Is it stable enough to use day-to-day? Is there a place on Macromates (some
skimming about didn't turn one up) where I could read the release notes, or
do I have to track it by some other means?

Hi,
I'd like to know if it's possible to select wich Python version
Textmate uses.
Actually my default system version is 2.4.3. BBEdit runs with
previous 2.3.5 but Textmate takes the 2.4.3
Revert 2.3.5 to the default Python would be a great idea too, but I
couldn't find out how to do it.
Thanks for your help,

Hi there,
I was wondering whether it was possible for a textmate bundle to
launch an external process, and then when triggered, could send some
text to the process (for example, using standard streams) and then do
something with the information that the process spits out.
Now I know you can do this whole workflow for each command, i.e. you
could read the current line, pass it as parameters to a command, and
then replace the line with the output of the program.
What I want to do is to have the process persist over command
triggers. i.e. One trigger might start the process, another might feed
it information and do something with the response (this command may be
called multiple times, and each time it would communicate with the
same process, rather than create a new process), and a final trigger
might end the process.
Is this at all possible?
Thanks,
Sam Aaron

Hi, simple question I think, but I can't find the answer
I quasi-always use regular expressions in the find and replace box, but this
button defaults to plain text search.
Q: What is the pref called to set this button's default to ticked?
Executing "defaults read com.macromates.textmate"
The closest I can see is this
OakFindPanelOptions = {
action = replaceAll;
findInProjectIgnoreCase = 0;
findString = "duchaine";
ignoreCase = 1;
replaceAllScope = document;
replaceString = " $1";
wrapAround = 0;
};
But no sign of "Regular Expression"

I'm trying to use a regex transformation in a snippet that will
convert the first letter of a word to uppercase and convert underscore
_ followed by a letter to a space and an uppercase letter.
eg:
field_name > Field Name
long_field_name > Long Field Name
I can't quite get get my head round how to do it, as it seems like two
seperate transformations, but I'm not sure how to to do
transformations on a string in a snippet.
Is there a collection of regexes for transforming between the main
cases? (particularly Camel, Title and underscore seperated) I managed
one that went from CamelCase to underscore_seperated:
${1/([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:$1_)\l$2/g}
Thanks

Hi there,
Well, that's pretty simple : I create a project
by dragging a bunch of files in the project
drawer… Fine…
After that, I move some of those files somewhere
else with the Finder or whatever : TextMate has “lost”
the moved files which now appear in red…
I cannot believe I am the only one bothered by
this behaviour… Or am I ? :-)
I'm working on a Wordpress blog and sometimes need to comment out
blocks of intermingled PHP and HTML. Don't get me started on either
PHP or interspersing code and markup. Anyhow, here's a hackish
command that toggles an if(false) block:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
lines = STDIN.readlines
php_regex = /\<\?php/i
if lines[0] =~ php_regex
lines.each{|l| puts l unless l =~ php_regex}
else
puts '<?php if(false) { ?>'
lines.each{|l| puts l}
puts '<?php } ?>'
end
Hope this is useful to someone...
Has any one written a .ctags.tmcodebrowser code for seeing markdown or
multimarkdown in the CodeBrowser?
Thought I would ask before I spend an inordinate amount of time trying
to figure out how to write the regex for it.
Thanks

When I attempt to update a directory with the SVN bundle, I get this error:
ruby: No such file to load -- /Users/offline/Library/Application
Support/TextMate/Support/bin/shelltokenize.rb (LoadError)
shelltokenizer.rb _does_ exist, however -- it's in ~/Library/Application
Support/TextMate/Support/lib.
If I symlink it into ../bin, I get this:
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Subversion.tmbundle/Support/format_status.rb:4:in
`require': No such file to load -- /Users/offline/Library/Application
Support/TextMate/Support/bin/Builder.rb (LoadError) from
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Subversion.tmbundle/Support/format_status.rb:4
-:13:in `write': Broken pipe (Errno::EPIPE) from -:13:in `puts' from -:13
from -:13:in `each_line' from -:13
Obviously this last is not supposed to happen under any circumstances, but
it did seem like a possible quick fix at the time :)
Anyway, there appears to be a bug in that bundle.
I have TM build 1215, if that makes a difference -- wasn't there supposed to
be a new release coming soon?

Is there a way to have an auto saving and auto loading of projects?
I work on two computers, and I often have TextMate running on both.
When I synchronize files (using http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/
unison/index.html), TextMate picks up the changes automatically and
visually tells me a file is not saved. However there is no visual
clue that a project is not saved, and changes done to the tmproje
file are not picked up automatically.
I guess I could close all my projects before synchronizing, but I
find it really convenient to have TextMate running all the time.
(By the way, projects are a great feature and they make my working
with many TeX files much easier and more efficient.)
Thanks,
Alan

Hi all,
I just changed the python new function command to do some fun things
when one of python's 'special methods' is the name used for the new
function. So now, if you press ⇧↩ after typing a word like "setattr",
"cmp", "repr", or "init", you'll get a function that looks like:
def __setattr__(self, name, value):
pass
or
def __cmp__(self, other):
pass
I hope that people find it useful. The one downside to this method is
that if you want to name a function the same way as one of these special
methods (but without the underscores), then using ⇧↩ will not work as
before. So in that case use the "def" tab trigger.
Also, we may want to figure out a way to get these to execute with the ⇥
key instead of using ⇧↩
In general, I'm surprised that there hasn't been more progress on the
python bundle, given how many people claim to use it.[^1] I suppose I'm
as guilty for this as anyone. Anyway, us TM python users need to start
adding useful stuff to the bundle. It's hard to think of things, given
that the language is pretty low on extraneous baggage, but I'm sure
there are places where we can speed ourselves up.

The one thing preventing me from making a complete switch to textmate
is the lag when the app regains focus when viewing a project
contianing folders on network mounts.
I noticed that the manual mentions this behavior, and also says it
will be addressed in a future release... Anyone have a time table
around this?
Thanks,
Ben

2.1.1 Auto-Updating Projects
Currently updating is done when TextMate regains focus and can be slow
for some network mounted disks, in which case you may want to settle
for only adding individual files to the project (which can be grouped
and re-ordered manually to mimic the structure on disk).
The refresh delay for network mounted disks will be addressed in a
future release.
Hi!
I recently noticed, that alt+F2 invokes the spelling menu. Really
good. But spelling errors are recognized, when I type a blank symbol.
So I have to move the cursor back and type alt+F2. Is it possible to
invoke the spelling menu for the last misspelled word? And perhaps
there could be an own TextMate spelling menu which has shortcuts for
the entries.

Hi,
I'm a new to textmate and loving it so far. i have a couple of
questions that i've saved up after my first week of use that i was
hoping someone could help me with:
* i find that snippets make it easy to add text - but i'm not so sure
how to modify existing text. e.g. i find i am always commenting out
code in css, so i added this snippet (and bound to a key):
/* $TM_SELECTED_TEXT */
great! ok, now how would i remove comments? (or even better, how to
toggle comments on the current line?)
* hard-wrap: i know textmate doesn't support this out of the box, but
with vi i always used "fmt". so here's my command which i bound to a
key:
fmt << ___END___
$TM_SELECTED_TEXT
___END___
this isn't ideal (what if the text has ___END___ in it? fmt barfs on
non-ascii, and i always get an extra newline.) is there a better way?
* some snippets show a series of options, which you cannot select (they
just get erased when you start to type.) what's the idea - just a
simple reminder - or am i using it wrong? e.g. in the css bundle:
list-style-type: ${1:none/disc/circle/square};$0
why not just make 4 snippets - so then you get the popup and can choose
which one? (so i could hit '1' instead of typing in 'none'.)
well, i've got lots more questions, but that's probably enough for now.

Hi,
when writing in languages using accents (e.g. italian)
one frequently types \`e or \`o (or \"u etc).
The LaTeX bundle has the annoying habit of doubling
the ticks or backticks (or the double quotes) even
immediately following a backslash \
This seems inappropriate; the sequences \`' and
\"" have no use I presume. Is it possible to keep
the doubling of ticks except when immediately
following a backslash? I know I can disable the
doubling completely, but I would like to keep it in
other cases.
Thanks,
Piero
Hi!
How do I navigate from a method call to the declaration of said method?
In xCode I would command-double-click the method call.
BTW, I am new to the list and am just re-discovering TextMate. I had
looked at it once before. At that time it lacked the one key feature
for me: code completion. Now it is a killer app!

Hi!
When working on a file, I would at times like to switch back to xCode
to:
- set a breakpoint
- use the better code sense implementation
- ...
I see no such feature.

Hi to all,
Small side question regarding the focus toggling between Drawer and window.
After the first toggle ctrl shift, the shortcut doesn't get me back to
the editing window using the same shortcut at the curser.
I was wondering,may be if it is expected, or something broken from my side.

Hello,
Is there an existing command to run "make" in the current directory,
or should I make one?
I'm working on a LaTeX paper with sereval people who use emacs, and
the building process is done using a Makefile. I looked at the LaTeX
"Typeset and View" in the bundle editor, but it seems that it's
always adding options to TM_LATEX_COMPILER and cannot simply be used
to call make. (I may have missed something there, I'm a fairly new
TextMate user).
Thanks for any suggestion.

Hi,
I'm fairly new to TextMate - I use it to develop Java applications
and my website in an academic enviornment. I followed directions on
the TM website to make TM my default Cocoa Text Field editor in OS X
(from here: http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/
using_textmate_from_terminal). I press splat + ctrl + E in nearly
any application* and I can edit the field with TM. This is a
fantastic feature to which I have grown addicted.
However, I find myself ssh-ing into servers around campus and I can't
use TM to edit files in the shell (since the EDITOR variable is
obviously local to my machine). Is it possible in my .bash_profile
on remote servers to open files in my local TM? This would be great...
I'll conclude by saying that I have very little *nix knowledge, so
please be gentle!
Thank you for your help - I've learned a lot on this list.
- Jerzy G.
*Firefox text boxes don't seem to work - I presume it's not a Cocoa
text field?
Hi guys,
I just started to reuse LaTeX again, there's been a lot of really
great things going on since the last time I used it, so awesome job!
I like how you've added the (fold/end) markers for each section/
subsection, but might I suggest adding the text in \label to the
"end" part of the snippet, so as to remind the user what section they
are looking at the end of?
So, currently the section snippet looks like:
\section{${1:section name}}\label{sec:${2:${1/(\w+)|\W+/(?1:\L$0:_)/
g}}} % (fold)
${0:$TM_SELECTED_TEXT}
% section (end)
I'm thinking something like this (which works w/o damaging anything)
% section ${2} (end)
But for some reason I find this more handy (which unfortunately hoses
the folding):
% section (end:${2})
It's easy enough for me to keep it in my own bundle, but I figured
others may find this useful as well.
What do you think?

Hello,
A while ago, I was told that I could specify what latex command get
run when I "rebuild" a latex file using the "TM_LATEX_COMPILER"
project option. Unfortunately the only place I found where I can
specify shell variables is in the global preferences, and I would
like of course such variables to be project dependent. Is there a way
to do so?
Another thing I would like is to keep the "compiling" window open, so
that I can look at the warnings and messages (right now it closes
after compilation). I could not find this window in the "Window"
menu. How can I keep it open?
Thanks,
Alan
