- TextMate - lists.macromates.com

by Graham Ashton

Hi. I've been trying to modify the HTML language so that it understands embedded Python code, as you find in a Kid template. For example: <?python def shoe(potato): pass ?> By default TextMate thinks it's PHP code (source.php.embedded.html). I thought it would be pretty straightforward, and copied the chunk of config that appears to setup embedded ruby. I ended up with this, defined just beneath php-source: python = { name = 'source.python.embedded.html'; begin = '(?:^\s*)<\?python(?!.*\?>)'; end = '\?>(?:\s*$\n)?'; patterns = ( { name = 'comment.line.number-sign.ruby'; match = '#.*?(?=-?%>)'; }, { include = 'source.python'; }, ); }; However, when I click "Format" and "Test" in the Bundle Editor the text in my editor is still marked up as PHP. I removed all the PHP stuff to see if it was overriding the Python settings, but it didn't help. What should I be doing for this? Cheers... -- Graham

[OT]: Ghostwriter

by hadley wickham

This email is a bit off topic, but I thought it might be useful to any developers who are making screencasts. I've written a little ruby script called ghostwriter which uses apple gui event scripting to produce applescript that makes it looks like you're typing. I've found it very useful when for making demo code, because unlike me, the computer never makes a typo! It's available at http://www.had.co.nz/ghostwriter/ Hadley

Convert selection to entity

by Christian Alexander Mueller

On some occasions I use to code html pages with Romanian special characters. Unlike with the German special characters (ä etc.) I feel better to use the standardized entities for Romanian characters in the form ă etc. In TextMate I could not find out yet how to convert a text selection with Romanian special characters typed so that only the special characters are converted to entities. In my page *every* single character is replaced by its entity and makes the text illegible. Where is the solution I missed in the manual?

Move Selection up/down broken?

by Martin Bialasinski

Hello, the Move Selection Line Up / Down feature does not seem to work correctly. I have A B <caret C then press cmd-ctrl-up and get B A <caret C The caret should also move up one line, so I can further move the line, no? Moving down from A <caret B C gets me B A C <caret As you can see, the caret is misplaced again. Can someone confirm this, or is it some local problem of mine? I use Textmate r847. Bye, Martin (Sorry, if this message goes through twice. I originally tried the gmane NNTP access but don't see my posting in the archive)

Textmate service not present in the Services menu

by Pedro Melo

Hi, sorry if this is a common question, but I searched the wiki and the ml archives a couple of months back and I could not find an answer. The TextMate service does not appear on my services menu. TextMate was installed a couple of weeks ago, and I've logged out and logged in a couple of times since then and still nothing. I'm using version Version 1.1b17 (847), and TextMate is installed inside the /Applications folder. Thanks in advance, -- Pedro Melo JID: melo(a)simplicidade.org

Variable Width Fonts (excuse me for inquiring:)

by David Wooten

Greetings, I've been searching for the official line on variable width fonts in TextMate but cannot find it anywhere---though I seem to remember reading it before. Is it on the to-do list at all? I understand that for most(?) TM users it is a non-issue, being programmers, but as I use TM 95% for ConTeXt/TeX paper writing, it sure would be nice. Anyway, I bring it up again because it occasionally starts to bug me, and I can't leave the editing capabilities of TM behind ;). Kind regards, David

Projects pop-up, auto upload

by Nate Beaty

I searched through the archives to see if there was some sort of functionality that would list all your TM Projects in a concise list (in either a sticky or popup window) to ease switching to different projects.. Didn't find anything (did I miss something?) and ended up putting something together with Butler that is really slick and thought I'd share. * I moved all my .tmproj files to a single folder in my Websites directory * added a container in Butler with the folder containing all my .tmproj files inside it * assigned the container a hotkey ctrl-opt-w and set it to: "Opens a menu near the mouse" I previously had all the .tmproj files inside each site's homedir, and set Butler to only show files with a .tmproj extension with 2 levels of recursion, but it was too slow. Making a dedicated tmproj folder makes this an instantaneous popup with ctrl-opt-w that shows all my TM projects, which can be opened by keyboard or mouse. (I guess this could be done with within TM with shell commands, too, in a very similar manner, but using Butler allows you to open a project from anywhere.) Also, this is buried in the wiki, but what put me over the fence on agreeing S/FTP integration in TM was unnecessary, allowed me to drop Dreamweaver from my workflow completely, and caused me to buy Transmit & TM instantly was this simple command: osascript -e 'tell app "Transmit" to open POSIX file "'"$TM_FILEPATH"'"' Set this to a command triggered with cmd-shift-u, and TM first saves the local file, then sends the file to Transmit, which will then auto- upload to the appropriate server if the file belongs to a DockSend- enabled favorite in Transmit. (Allan has this listed for Interarchy in the wiki: I just changed "Interarchy" to "Transmit".) Nate. --------------------- CLIXEL Design & Coding http://clixel.com/

Nested Snippets

by Gabe da Silveira

So, I know that this is already on the todo list, but I'm curious what the status of nested snippets is. I'm talking about initiating another snippet while still in the placeholder of another snippet. Then when you tab out it would return to the previous snippet(s). I'm sure a few thorny issues might come up in implementation, but the general idea is just a stack of active snippets instead of a single one. The reason I ask is because often when I create snippets I am forced to choose between something like: <p>$0</p> and <p>$1</p>$0 The first one is sometimes preferable because I can then put another snippet right in. However in general I would prefer to use the second form. With nested snippets we get the best of both worlds. TextMate already had an easy time replacing BBEdit for me, but this feature alone would probably double my HTML creation speed.

Latest TM version activation delays

by Gerd Knops

Hi, Since I updated from the previous to the latest TM version, any time I switch from another application to a TM window TM is unresponsive (pizza wheel) for approximately 3 seconds (time appears to depend on how many projects are open). Even if I have TM front, click any other App's window and immediately back to TM that delay is observed. Gerd

How to actually do a diff in TextMate?

by Michael A. Alderete

(I read the manual, did a search of the archives for "diff FileMerge" and read all hits before writing this email, and I have also tried a couple of the Diff commands in the Subversion bundle.) I am wondering if, either as part of Allan's documentation effort, or as some bundle maintainer's efforts, a simple "How to Find Differences Using TextMate" document could be written. Because I confess, I am at sea as to how to get a useful, usable diff of two similar documents. My gold standard for usable differences is (as many of the list postings discussed) BBEdit. In particular, it has a menu command, "Compare Two Front Documents", which provides a highly usable interface to locate, review, and merge/modify the differences between two open documents. FileMerge, while flawed in some important ways, also provides a reasonably useful way of interacting with two files. (The diff output of the Subversion bundle is not suitable to my group's needs.) For me, it's *critical* that a usable diff command *not* require either document to be under revision control. I am the first person in my group to be using any form of revision control more sophisticated than DreamWeaver's simple file locking. Subversion is being used only on new projects which I am in charge of, which is a very small percentage of the stuff I'm working on, so it'll be a good while before I can count on having stuff in Subversion. Perhaps this suggestion will be taken as rude (and it won't be useful for non-BBEdit converts who don't have a BBEdit license), but it would be perfectly acceptable for a TextMate differences command to simply pass along the two file references to BBEdit's command line differences program, bbdiff, if the process would allow me to resolve my differences there and have the results saved back into my open documents in TextMate. A more universal version might use FileMerge instead of bbdiff. Last, an offer: If there is an acceptable differences command already, and someone will write up a quick list of the steps to use it ala the "Compare Two Front Documents" command, I will write up a complete tutorial, complete with screenshots, etc., suitable for the complete newbie (such as myself, and my co-workers). I'm a good technical writer, by way of credentials, here are some URLs to Mac OS X documentation I've written: * PGP Desktop Manual Proxy Settings: <http://aldoblog.com/blog/493> * Getting Started with m0n0wall: <http://www.aldosoft.com/docs/m0n0wall-getting-started.html> * A whole series of articles covering audiobooks on iTunes and the iPod: <http://aldoblog.com/audiobooks/> So, I'll commit to writing some quality docs for the wiki covering a differences command, if someone will point me in the direction of a differences command that is useful for my (and my co-workers') needs. Thanks! -- _____________________________________________________________ Michael A. Alderete <mailto:lists-2003@alderete.com> <http://www.alderete.com>

I believe you, but it's confusing because I can match all the empty lines in a given document with "^$". Oh well. No dice.

Bolding and antialiasing (and possibly Markdown)

by Jeffrey E. Forcier

Hey all, Thanks to Allan & co (is there really an '& co'?) for all the hard work--been using TM for about a year and still loving it :) I'm having an odd issue which I fear is actually a feature and not a bug (and I'm not even positive it's TM's fault), so to speak, but am asking anyway. Most monospaced fonts such as Monaco, Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, Andale Mono, &c, show up as vaguely bold when antialiasing is turned on; however I only realized this recently when messing around with Markdown and its syntax highlighting. When surrounding text with double asterisks, which as I'm sure everyone knows is Markdown for bold, the text actually gets *less bold* compared to the rest of the text! With antialiasing off, the amount of bolding is normal, e.g. stuff in double-asterisks is noticeably stronger than everything else. When using Courier or Courier New, things also look more normal (with antialiasing on *or* off). However, I hate coding with serif fonts, so just switching to Courier isn't really an option. I've looked around a bit for other fonts but so far they all display the same behavior as the bunch mentioned earlier. So. Is this something TextMate is doing, or is it at the system level? In the various terminal apps I've never had issues like this. And regardless, does anyone have any suggestions? I realize that at the end of the day it's a silly thing to complain about, but I tend to be a stickler about stuff like this; if, when writing in Markdown, my italics are italic, I'd like my bolds to be bold too =) Thanks for your time, Jeff -- Jeffrey E.

Bug: All commands unavailable until window is open (even if they are commands to open a window :-) )

by Timothy Bates

Hi, the Apache commands are fantastic! Using them highlighted a little bug for me: 1. close all documents 2. go to Automation:Run Command:Apache: expect: see "Open httpd.conf" usable obtained: All commands grayed out I think the best answer is to make them all available, even if this is inappropriate, and let the command have some error checking to feedback to the user that it needs a document, if necessary. tim 我爱言论自由人权和民主 “I love freedom of speech, human rights, and democracy" I also don't like the patriot act, or DCMA
