Hello all,
I've been slowly (and I do mean slowly) putting together an ExpressionEngine
bundle over the last several months. It's mainly snippets, but it also can look
up a selected EE tag in the user manual and display it in a small TextMate
window. It has code highlighting, but I'm not sure I've set it up correctly. I
also don't have all the EE tags implemented.
Which leads me to the reason I'm writing this. I've had several people tell me
they'd love to try out the bundle, but I just don't have the time to make this
bundle work perfectly. What I'd like to do is add it to the list of available
bundles and let anyone who wants to make it better. The more people contributing
to it the better it will be.
Again, I'm not sure I've set up code highlighting correctly, so that should be
one of the first things people check out.
One note, EE tags can be used inside of other code (XHTML, XML, CSS, etc). In
order for highlighting to work correctly, I had to add an extra language inside
of the HTML and XHTML bundles called HTML (EE) and XHTML (EE). Is that the
correct way to do it or what?
Anyway, enough rambling. I'm not sure how people feel about attachments in this
list, so I didn't attach the bundle to this message. If someone could tell me
how to add it to the bundles list on the TextMate site or do it for me, that'd
be great. I'm looking forward to seeing how others improve the bundle.

Thank you Thank you Thank you for the effort Chris I've been waiting for something like this. :)

Here is a useful bundle for testing out ruby snippets. It includes a
script from eigenclass.org[1].
⌘= insert/remove an eval marker for the current line
⌘E evaluates and annotate the file according to the markers
If there are errors they are placed at the end of the file.
Examples (after eval):
(1..10).each do |i|
i ** i # => 1, 4, 27, 256, 3125, 46656, 823543, 16777216,
387420489, 10000000000
end
(1..10).to_a # => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
Unfortunately you can't do something like this:
(1..10).each do |i|
i ** i

Hi there.
When you preview web pages containing iframes that drag in
information from the web, the frame displays as filled with unicode
characters (instead of the programmed content).
You can see this by viewing this email in textmate (cntrl-cmd-E).
Compare that to what you get if you view the email in safari (you
can't just view, as it will have a .mail extension - reveal in finder
and toggle this to html then double click.

Last week I posted about a little tool I made to allow editing of SQL
data within textmate.
I've turned this program into a bundle, which you can download here:
http://vivified.net/files/downloads/SQLEdit-bundle-09.zip
See the help command for more information.
It seems to require Ruby 1.8.4, why this is I'm not sure yet. I'm
very much a ruby newbie.
Also, I can't seem to get rid of the HTML output window as I need the
edit process to be run in a separate
window from the main textmate window (otherwise it freezes and I
can't load anything into it). Is there a
way to spawn a new background process, and then end my initial
textmate command process?
Anyway, I'd love to hear if anyone finds this useful. I myself use it
to edit my Textpattern site's templates,
as they are all stored inside the database.
Cheers,
Bastiaan
Just to give back a little, I made a change to the Tidy command in the
HTML bundle (actually, made a new bundle and copied code and changed
it.)
When running the stock Tidy HTML command on an HTML document that was
created by saving a Microsoft Word document as HTML, it completely
deletes the contents document! In my duplicate of the Tidy command, I
added an option for Tidy to know it's dealing with a Word document.
I added: --word-2000 yes to the tidy command in the bundle. The
first few lines now are:
"${TM_TIDY:-tidy}" -f /dev/null -iq -utf8 -asxhtml -wrap 0 --tab-size
$TM_TAB_SIZE --word-2000 yes --indent-spaces $TM_TAB_SIZE
${TM_SELECTED_TEXT:+--show-body-only yes}|\
Now it cleans all of the extra MS junk that's added to a document.
There's still a little clean up to do (it doesn't delete the
<o:p></o:p> useless tags, but that's easy to do.)
Hope this helps someone!

Hi,
I have created a few commands that are analogous to the Subversion
commands which diff against a revision, but instead of generating a
diff output, the result is sent to FileMerge for viewing, which IMHO
is a whole lot easier to read.
The commands look like this:
-------------
require_cmd "${TM_SVN:=svn}" "If you have installed svn, then you
need to either update your <tt>PATH</tt> or set the <tt>TM_SVN</tt>
shell variable (e.g. in Preferences / Advanced)"
require_cmd opendiff "You must install the Apple developer tools to
run FileMerge."
"$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/bin/filemerge.sh" BASE "$TM_FILEPATH"
-------------
filemerge.sh looks like this:
-------------
#!/bin/sh
#
# $1 = svn revision
# $2 = full path to file ($TM_FILEPATH)
# First see if the file is under svn control
FILE=`basename "$2"`
INFO_LINES=`svn info 2>&1 > /dev/null | wc -l`
if [ $INFO_LINES -eq 2 ]; then
echo "The current file is not under subversion control"
exit 206
fi
SIZE=`svn diff -r $1 "$2" | wc -m`
if [ $SIZE -eq 0 ]; then
echo "No difference"
exit 206
fi
INODE=`stat -f "%i" "$2"`
TMPPATH="/tmp/tm-opendiff-$INODE.tmp"
svn cat -r $1 "$2" > "$TMPPATH"
opendiff "$TMPPATH" "$2"
-----------
To create a command for a different revision, change BASE in the
command to something else (e.g. HEAD or PREV).

hi,
I know that it has been discussed before -- but I have yet to find the
command or step(s) to effectively translate high-ascii characters -- like
emdashes and smart quotes -- that were written in Word tr html.
I still have stuff like the following:

Hi all,
Sorry for this - it's probably something very obvious that I'm
missing - it might be a default Mac feature that I'm not aware of.
Here's the situation...
I want to check a file into subversion. I hit Shift+Control+a and
select Commit. I enter my comment in the Summary of changes panel.
Now I want to 'hit' the Commit button without my hands leaving the
keyboard (i.e. not using the mouse). I've tried every key combo I can
think of, but I couldn't find one. Anyone?
P.S. Allan, I absolutely _love_ TextMate. I would buy a Mac just to
use this program.
Carpe viam,
Mike

I would be very very very very happy if there was a way to have a
TextMate textview totally replace the Xcode editor. I'm sure others
have asked for this, but searching through the list was painful on my
slow-ass internet connection, so I make the request here.
The idea is that you could write a SIMBL wrapper or an Xcode plugin
wrapper (the API, though private, has been documented) around a
subclass of the Xcode TextView (a dump of the framework - used to be
called PBX.framework or some such would garner the class) and then
basically do a poseAs.
I, for one, would certainly be willing to pay for this feature. That
is, I already own TM, and I would happily buy another license for
this product for $40. What are the odds, difficulties, etc of this?

When I try to execute a SVN command I get this error:
/bin/bash: line 1: require_cmd: command not found
Then most of the commands work fine except for svn status that gives no output.
Any clue? I already checked the various enviroment variables but
everything seems ok.
(I am using TextMate 1.5.1 (961) on Mac OS X 10.4.6.)
I see in the archives that Ke Han asked for a "bracket matching
feature" on 8th March (http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/
2006-March/008927.html) wherein a user could double-click on a
bracket to select the enclosing content (ala BBEdit) but that the
only way to reproduce this behaviour is via the shift-cmd B "Select
Enclosing Brackets" command.
Is there any way for me to implement this behaviour as I would
greatly appreciate being able to select the contents of an entire
bracket so easily? If not, is there any chance of it appearing in a
future release of TextMate? My main use would be to quickly identify
where the closing (or opening) bracket for some code lies.
On another note, I have noticed what I believe is a bug when shifting
lines left and right:
Shifting a line to the left moves the cursor one character to the
right and shifting a line to the right shifts the cursor one
character to the left when I expected the cursor to remain relatively
stationary. More noticeably, this means that if the cursor was at the
end of the line and the user shifts left, the cursor goes to the next
line.
Thanks in advance,

How does one find the key string value for a key? For instance F3. I
found some unicode codes here:
http://hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/Site/Cocoa%20Text%20System.html
and also this little app that tells you various codes here:
http://www.petermaurer.de/nasi.php?section=keycodes
This program, for ctrl-escape, gave me:
Unicode: 27 / 0x1b
Keys: ^Escape
Key Code: 53 / 0x35
Modifiers: 262401 / 0x40101
And for F3 gave me:
Unicode: 63238 / 0xf706
Keys: F3
Key Code: 99 / 0x63
Modifiers: 8388864 / 0x800100
Are any of these numbers the right thing? I'm worried because I am
not seeing \033 in either of these entries.

Hi,
A newbie question. Is there any way to choose from keyboards without
arrow keys when I see multiple options.
For example, as in the Manual "5.1.2 Tab Trriggers", in CSS if I type
list and hit tab, I see 8 options. I wanna pick one up without using
arrow keys and a mouse.
Sorry if this is documented in the manual. Thanks for your attention.
Once I found in the Wiki a tip to let TextMate auto add * in C
comments. That is to say when I press return
it goes from
/*
* this is a comment...
ro
/*
* this is a comment...
*
Unfortunately I'm not able to find it anymore.
This was just a "basic" question, since manually adding * and
spaces (tab is "rigid" it adds a fixed number of spaces, it does not
seem to put the "right" number, that is to say the number that is
needed to align with the above content).
A more advanced question is: could a "Doxygen" mode be done?
Is someone doing it?
I suppose it is possible, since it should behave quite like the css
mode inside the HTML mode or something like that?

... how I stopped worrying and learned to love absolute paths.
Hey all, new (<24hrs) TextMate user, and as a recovering emacs/Alpha
user, I am *LOVING* this thing. I have hopes for one use of the
Projects that I can't seem to get working, and my investigations make
me think that I'm just trying to abuse the poor things more than
they're intended to be.
Scenario:
I have a large (stable) code base that I'm working with, and am
doing a number of investigations into the code to figure out how the
bloody thing works. It occurred to me that I might be able to use
Projects as a way of tracking these investigations:
1) Drop top folder of source repository on TextMate.
2) Start digging through code, leaving windows open as tabs.
3) When I'm done, I have a list from left to right of the files I
ended up looking at, and the last place I looked in them.
4) Save the project with an appropriate name related to the *topic*
"DataFileSearching.tmproj" for example.
5) At later date, when I need to revisit the investigation, I have
breadcrumbs of where I went, what I looked at, etc. I also have a
timestamp on the Project file of the last time it was worked on. (I
considered using Groups in a Project, but that doesn't give me a
workset, or a timestamp.)
Now the problem... if I move the Project file, it breaks all the
folder references. My first thought was that after step 1, but
before I open any files, I just needed to select the top level in the
Project, Get Info, and then check Save as Absolute Path. I peeked
into the .tmproj file, and yup, a nice absolute path was created for
me. Moving the Project file resulted in it still being able to find
the root of the source tree. Problem one down.
Now for the second problem... if any files are open, and I save the
Project, *those* paths are *NOT* saved as absolute, and instead are
relative to where the .tmproj file resides. If I move the file, I
lose all my breadcrumbs. Bummer.
So this boils down to: am I missing something, or is this a bug to
file?

There is not, no. But a solution will appear, and is conceptually
rather simple IMO.
Currently the scope selector is disabled for language grammars, now
imagine it wasn’t, and that selector decided where to inject the
grammar!
That would allow to tear out the PHP, Ruby, and Smarty handling of
the HTML grammar, and instead have that with the language. Likewise
it allows the mentioned FIXME/TODO grammar to be in the TODO bundle,
and be injected based on a scope selector -- disabling the TODO
bundle would then disable this injection automatically.
There is a scope addition which will make this more powerful, namely
exposing arbitrary file attributes in the scope (which scope
selectors can then target), that way, the Java bundle can inject <%
java %> support to HTML files only when the file type attribute is
‘jsp’, and the Subversion bundle can inject the various svn keywords
only when the SCM attribute is ‘svn’.
> Probably I should ask this question on the mailing list, should I?
I cc’ed the mailing list, seeing how others probably would enjoy
reading my reply to this (though I think I have hinted at this
earlier, maybe only on IRC).
I hope to have the file attributes exposed in the scope already in
2.0 (this will then also allow all SCM bundles to use the same key
equivalents), but grammar injection is probably at earlist 2.1 or so…
the technical challenge isn’t that big, but I would also need to
extend scope selectors to allow an injection to stop after a given
depth, so to speak -- and I also need to only focus on one thing at a
time, to actually get anything done :)

Is the functionality of Reformat Paragraph controlled by a bundle?
Specifically, the way it autoindents lines after a * like this:
* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod
tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam,
quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo
I'd like this auto-indenting to occur after a - too.
Q
Hi.
My first post. Since I haven't received any messages from the list yet
(just signed up), I didn't know whether I had to prepend something
like [Textmate] to the Subject line, so I didn't.
I would like to to the delete the current line using Shift + Delete
First Attempt... Macro
Jump to beginning of current line, hit CTRL+K, hit back-delete, press down
This worked OK for a while, but I ran into probems when trying to
delete blank lines, and the carat position is in a less than desirable
place
2nd Attempt... Command
Got pretty far with this one. I read in the entire document into an
array, sliced the line, and set the output to replace the document.
However, couldn't place the carat position anywhere. I believe you can
only define the carat position when inserting as a snippet, not
replacing the document.
Of course, there may be an even easier way to do this, but I don't know it.
Hi,
I don't like pyunit, so use py.test instead. It was really simple to
wire py.test into the Python bundle, but it was also really ugly
using the "Text Window."
Based on some feedback from the IRC channel, and the excellent
example of PyMate, I cobbled together PyTestMate which allows you to
run py.test unit tests directly from within TextMate, and get lovely
formated results from those tests.
It's still a work in progress, but it does work quite well, in fact,
the unit tests for PyTestMate were all written using PyTestMate.
If you'd be interested in taking a look at it please let me know and
I'll forward you the code.

As discussed previously on this list, I have made a bundle of all my
Ruby shortcuts and made it available to all. Bundle and detailed

I'm new to TextMate and can't figure out how to change the width of indentation.
It's currently 4 and I'd like it to be 2. How's it done?
Also, how can I get TM to insert spaces rather than tabs?
Thanks,
Joe
So I bounced this idea off of Soryu and it seems this hasn't been
discussed much. What if you could add multiple carets to the current
document by command-clicking? I imaging this to work in a way almost
identical to that of the current snippet mechanism. For example:
choose three caret locations, start typing, and in each location your
text will show up. Press tab and the caret will focus in on the
second of the two locations, highlighting the newly typed text (if
any). Tab again and it moves to the third.
It would also be ideal to be able to highlight multiple selections in
the same way--kind of like a powerful replace mechanism. Command-
click and select three words in the document, then type one new word,
and incrementally, all three words change to the new one.
Has this been discussed before? It seems plausible given the
powerful way we can already "insert as snippet" to the document.
Hi,
In my FileMerge bundle support script (Support/bin/filemerge.sh) I
call opendiff. If FileMerge is not already open, 2 seconds after it
launches TextMate displays the spinning beachball. Quitting FileMerge
makes the beachball go away.
I have tried using & to execute opendiff as a background process, but
that didn't help. Any ideas?
