Hi,
I'm running build 1215 on a MacBook and whenever I switch application
into TextMate it takes a few seconds before the application becomes
active. For those few seconds the application is just frozen
(although it buffers keypresses and executes them when it becomes
active).
This is very annoying :) Anyone able to help?
Thanks,
Colm

The approach you have suggested seems to work fine.
However, I think it would be much better if the user has a chance to
review his deltas to a bundle. (This is not something you can do, I
guess, but rather the developer of TextMate.)

Ok, a difference in philosophy. However, then there should be more a

I'm fairly new to TextMate, and completely new to Snippets, so I may be
asking something overly ambitious for a newbie. If so, I beg your
indulgence ;)
I'm working on a snippet which will automate the creation of versioned
tables, a la the acts_as_versioned plugin[1]. I've started with a tab
trigger which will paste in the outer self.up and self.down definitions.
Following the example in the "for ... in ... end" snippet, I've figured
out how to have my specified table name repeated throughout all the
appropriate places in the snippet. So all ready, what I've got is a huge
key-stroke saver :) But obviously, an ideal snippet would go further yet.
Here's what I've got:
def self.up
create_table :${1:table}s do |t|
t.column :version, :int
$0
end
${1/./\u$0/}.create_versioned_table do |t|
t.column :${1:table}_id, :int
t.column :version, :int
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :${1:table}s
drop_table :${1:table}_versions
end
EOS
As you can see, the snippet currently fills in a couple of default
columns for both my main table and its versioned partner. Is it possible
to then begin typing in column definitions for the primary table (where
the cursor currently ends at $0), and have those columns mirrored in the
versioned table below?
Thanks in advance for any pointers someone can offer!

Hi,
I just started creating my own snippets, and was wondering if it's
possible to write 'recursive' snippets. Let me give an example: say I
use the banner snippet from the source bundle:
// ==========
// = Banner =
// ==========
I'm currently in the $1 tab, and instead of 'Banner', I want to use
another snippet, triggered by base<TAB> and which will extend into, say,
"All your base are belong to us".
// ========
// = base =
// ========
<TAB>
// ==================================
// = All your base are belong to us =
// ==================================
Once this second snippet is completed, I then go back to the first one,
where I left it. This far, I haven't found such a nested scopes option
in the snippet syntax, but since I'm a newb I may have missed it. If
this feature really isn't available, I think it'd be a valuable addition
(even though the example I gave is completely phony). We could imagine a
special syntax indicating wether the current tab is in protected mode -
as it is now - or if it can be subject to other triggers. For example,
$1 and $$1 resp. What do you think of it?
Regards,
Emmanuel

Hey there,
Can we update the Python Language definition in order to add folding
markers for python docstrings (particularly for long function
docstrings)?
Since there is an explicit beginning and end marker for these, I
reckon this should be pretty easy, but I'm not sure how to add it in
the face of that foldingStartMarker regex I see in the Python bundle
(I have the latest one from SVN).
So, the convention (from what I understand) is this:
A long doc strings for a function looks like so:
----- python code -------
def my_function(param1, param2):
"""This function does xyz
There is some long documentation here
...
...
... blah blah ...
....
""""
# real python code here
-----------------------------
So, something like adding a fold start and stop marker for """ could
do the trick (the indentation levels should be the same for start and
stop """ when folding is necessary).
Of course you can have this:
-----------
def my_function(param1, param2):
"""Short docstring""""
# real python code here
----------
So I don't know if that will hose it any, but I'm guessing it would
be ok since you can one-line { .. } code in languages that have brace
begin/end block markers.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have the following meta language which uses the tags
<php>...</php> and <htm>...</htm> to embed php and html.
Now, I would like to write a custom language module that
builds on the existing descriptions of php + html but I
cannot get it to work due to the 2 level recursion that
can occur.
Here's an example that I would like to format:
--------------------------------------
<span value="prefix"/>
<php>
print($foo);
<htm><span value="cool"/></htm>
</php>
<span value="foo"/>
<php>
print($bar);
<htm>
<span value="test1"/>
<php> print($test); </php>
<span value="test2"/>
</htm>
print($extra);
</php>
<span value="suffix"/>
--------------------------------------
The outmost context is html and everything can be
embedded in each other in many levels.
Is this possible? I got close but i.e. I have problems
using include "source.php" because it expects <?php as
a start tag.
Is this *very* complicated?
Andreas Pardeike
Well, my email to Chandler was returned to me so here goes my
improvements to the MEL bundle. I find them very useful and that they
round out the MEL support.
Changes:
* parsing for the function statements to catch 'global proc' and
'proc' better
* preference to allow function names to be put into the symbol list
* moved global out of keyword.control.mel to keyword.other.mel
* made all scopes point to mel
Take what you want and feel free to point out where I made errors.
Thanks,
Dan

Ok, I'm no expert, but I figure this is what many, many people want
to do. Perhaps you could just list these commands in a separate file
and include that file appropriately?

Well, we do what we are used to in the end ;-)

You can also (ab)use me as a beta tester.

No sure, but that's what in principle the closing tag feature should

I gotta give this a try.

Yes, this would complement written documentation nicely.

I don't think this is something you can keep up with the increasing
complexity. Thus, I don't think it's a good idea to constrain
yourself in such a way.
Instead, you could design one section to be read thoroughly and then
let the rest be what it is: a manual.

Sounds like a good start. Refer to the appropriate sections in the
Help as well, then people can go on reading.

I would say both. Take a look what I did, I hacked your bundle to get
the functionality I want -- at the expense that it might break in the
future.
So I would actually do both -- if time permits.

No, I haven't. You should definitely link them in your help.

After installing the latest LaTeX bundle, I have noticed that *all*
labels are now included in the drop-down menu in the bottom instead
of just the section labels. Since I usually have 40+ citations in my
papers and notes, the drop-down menu has been rendered unusable.
Is there any way to fix this?

Howdy all,

I sometimes find myself reformating big chunks of code (html) and
then i usually build a little scratch macro, and then i just hit shift
+command+m lots of times to go through the code. while this works, is
there an easy way to say something like "do this until end of file"
or simmilar?
perhaps make the macro dependant on finding the next text string of
something until the end or something?

Hi,
I've been experiencing this for quite a while now but until now had
no time to dig into the matter: With "Check Spelling as You Type" I'm
experiencing abysmal typing speed problems when working on LaTeX
documents. It only happens when I'm working some in already existing
paragraphs, *not* when typing at the end of the document. I can
actually see single letters appearing one after another in slow-
motion. Very annoying! Once I turn off "Check Spelling as You Type"
everything's back to normal, but it lacks a lot of convenience ... It
this a known problem? Does anybody else experience these problems, too?
(I'm working on a 12" PB (1st gen., 867 mhz) maxed out with 1.12 GB
RAM. It's plain text with a bit of markup so the machine *should* be
up to it ...!)

Hi all,
I was wondering about the status of 'full' support for folding in
python? The current implementation based on blank lines, spaces, etc.,
doesn't quite work for me. I understand that the 'folding engine' as it
is can't really handle python's indentation model -- but is some support
in the cards?
Andrew
Minor bug report:
In my .bash_profile I have GREP_OPTIONS=-Hn so that the output from
grep always includes the file name and line number (more often than
not I'm searching multiple files).
However, this caused the "Install 'Edit in TextMate'" command to fail, saying:
Error
The input manager ((standard
input):2:/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/Resources/Edit in
TextMate) was not found in the TextMate application bundle.
You may need a newer version of TextMate.
Once I realised the source of the error, working around was
straightforward; if you think it needs fixing, the simplest way is
probably just to change the first line of the script in the plist
from:
SRC="$(ps -xwwp $PPID -o command|grep TextMate.app|perl -pe
's/(.*?.app).*/\1/')/Contents/Resources/Edit in TextMate"
to:
SRC="$(ps -xwwp $PPID -o command|GREP_OPTIONS= grep TextMate.app|perl
-pe 's/(.*?.app).*/\1/')/Contents/Resources/Edit in TextMate"
Cheers,
Andrew
Hi,
I can't get folding to work for phpDoc comment blocks. The reason is
that the closing marker is seen by TextMate as being indented by one
extra space. phpDoc blocks start with /**, each commented line starts
with a space and a *, and the final line starts with a space followed
by */. Is there any way to get folding to work in this case?
TIA

Hi,
I usualy work on remote files by opening them with Transmit. When I
worked with BBEdit, theses files were opened as tabs in a single
windows as the project windows of TextMate. But i don't think it's
possible to do this directly in TM. I have to create a new Project,
open my files, and them by drag'n'drop in the project.
It would be nice to decide if files open in a tab window and it would
be very nice if we could open directly remote files from TextMate.
Merci. :)

Good evening,
If I were to add an extra "tag" for foldingStartMarker and
foldingStopMarker in the PHP bundle, am I under the assumption that
it would be read by the HTML bundle when TextMate sees it inside the
<?php ?> region?
When I am editing a PHP file and set the bundle to PHP, the folding
marks show up. But, when in HTML mode and use the same markers in
the PHP region, the folding marks are no longer appearing.
Am I doing something wrong? Or do I need to do something else?
Thanks
Does anybody have/know of a macro or other bundle that
converts RHTML to Markaby templates? I created a basic
macro that converts '<tr>' to 'tr do', '</tr>' to
'end', and so on.
Thanks,
Joe
