repetition of inputinputinputinput

by David Lee

Hi. wondering if I'm missing something, or else how I'd go about this. in vim / emacs one can specify a 'repeat count' for input, so i could easily insert 80 '-'s by typing (in vim) 80i-<esc> which is far less boring than holding the key down, and maps well to instances where a more complex repeated sequence is needed. can we do something like this in TM, as a built-in ? I mean in the general sense, though if there are commands to 'underline words' etc I'm still interested in those. cheers, David

Bug in Ruby syntax

by Matt Mower

Hi. When using a construct: x = case x when expr1 ... when expr2 ... else ... end I find that TxMt does not correctly indent after the CR after "case x" and then de-dents after the first "when" so that: x = case x when... becomes: x = case x when expr1 However it correctly indents when not assigning from case so that: case x when... becomes: case x when expr1 Which seems like a bug.

What's wrong with the Draw?

by Ryan Allen

I think the draw is okay. Saying that Edmundo's mock looks nice but it's just fussing if you ask me (which you didn't :D). I didn't make the switch to SubEthaEdit from BBEdit because it didn't have a project draw. BBEdit v8 had a project draw that cost me more to upgrade than Textmate cost me to buy outright. Go Textmate and it's Draw! Infact BBEdit from memory didn't have heriachical listings either. But that part of my memory is a bit vauge. The pain! The pain (of developing in 3 colour syntax highlighting).

Permission denied when creating the "mate" link

by Luís Bruno

Howdy, I'm evaluating build r790 and chose to create the "mate" link in ~/Applications, which is already in my path when I open Terminal.app. However, TextMate somehow requested admin privileges; I _cancelled_ and I got back an error message: "Creating the link “/bin/mate” failed with the following reason: Permission denied". Am I expecting the wrong thing? Thanks, -- Luís Bruno

Remapped PC keyboard

by porneL

I've got PC USB keyboard connected to Mac Mini. Using Ukelele I've remapped Context-Menu key to act as Delete (&x7f;). It works in all applications except TextMate, which keeps opening context menu (offering various web searches) when I press that key. Other remapped keys work in TextMate fine. Is that a bug/feature? Can it be fixed/disabled? -- regards, porneL

Open Recent for CL tool

by Jason Haslam

Hi, I noticed that the mate CL tool has a -r --recent option to add the file to the Open Recent menu but this doesn't seem to work for me. Am I doing something wrong? Also I would say that this should be the default but it isn't a big deal since I can just alias mate as mate -r. Thanks, Jason

Auto-saving remote files

by Matt Mower

Hi, I'm not sure there's anything to be done about this but I figured I would ask anyway. I'm using Fugu to manage a remote site via SFTP and have configured it to invoke TextMate as my editor. This makes it quite easy to edit files on the remote site. However the unintended consequence is that, every time I switch away from TxMt, it saves the remote file which is, quite often, a work in progress. I'm not sure there is any sense in which TxMt is aware that it is editing a file that is being edited from a remote site but, in case there is, would it be possible to control whether auto-save is activated for such files? Regards, Matt -- Matt Mower :: http://matt.blogs.it/

Ditch the drawer

by Colin D. Devroe

Are there any plans to ditch the drawer? I wouldn't mind the file list working like Mail, iTunes, iPhoto or most of the newer apps coming out lately. I don't think the Drawer works, especially for large hierarchies and 12-inch screens - both of which I am plagued with. Thanks, Colin D. Devroe

Using a self-made template

by Drew McCormack

I'm trying to get the Template functionality working. I have authored a template, but when I use the New from Template... menu item, I get the file name 'untitled', which is not what I want to use in my file. I see that if I have a project, I can choose a template to use, but the list is different to the one in New from Template..., and I cannot choose my newly created template. Is this functionality useable, or is it still in a state of flux? Am I missing something? Drew --------------------------------------------------------- Drew McCormack www.maniacalextent.com

Jump to file command

by Chris Jenkins

Can anyone out there with superpowers in writing shell script help with the following? Id like to write a command that can locate the currently selected word as a file within the project (assuming the word is the name of a class or some such thing) and open that file. Now I know what you¹re all saying, just copy the selection and paste it into the ³Go To file...² window, I just thought this might be, you know, fractionally quicker, add up all those extra clicks and key presses and over the course of a day I might save, oh, 10 seconds or so. ;-) I just know someone out there can do this, but the more I stare at combinations of locate, grep, perl and whatnot the more I can feel my sanity ebb away. Go on, you know you want to. Chris ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.

A scope/theme bug maye?

by Matt Mower

Hi, I just noticed that my syntax highlighting seems a bit messed up. I've attached a screenshot, you can see that the "def" isn't getting the keyword style but, by a process of switching themes about, appears to be getting the entity style. I also attached screenshots of the ctrl+shift+p output for the def & end statement to show what TxMt thinks they are. I updated to 790 this morning, don't remember seeing this before then.

Yeah, but the script I linked to actually runs the program and gives you (almost) real-time debugging while you're editing the file.

Project (feature request)

by Rune Hansen

I like the fact that I can have several folders each representing a "project" within a TM Project. However, it becomes quite confusing when editing files in a Project set up this way. - TurbogearsProject(group) - Admin/ -admin/ -controllers.py -static/ . . -Website/ -website/ -controllers.py -static/ . . When editing the file "controllers.py" from folder Admin/admin/ and Website/website/controllers.py there's no distinction between the two files in the editor. The list in cmd-T shows the files as "controllers.py - website" and "controllers.py - admin". Is there any way I can get the same in the file tab in the editor? regards /rune --------------------------------------------------------------------- Behind the firewall, nobody can hear you scream...

language grammar question

by Sylvain Benilan

Hi all, Have downloaded the demo (1.1b17 (769)) and currently evaluate TextMate (vs bbedit/textwrangler) against my needs. It looks like the editor I was missing :) Indeed I work on the support of the CLAIRE language which have special construct that are often impossible to describe with other editor's syntax facilities. The way TM handles languages/scopes and other language inclusion is the best I've ever seen. I could create a CLAIRE bundle that, for the first time, handles correctly the syntax of CLAIRE (and, trust me, I'm not a regex guru...)! My question is about a language description design. I tried (but failed) to design the grammar such anything that is a valid CLAIRE construct is described by a specific pattern and anything else falls into the scope of 'invalid.illegal.something'. For instance, in CLAIRE, a variable scope is introduced with a 'let' construct : let x := 1, y := 2 in (x + y) // valid let x := 1, y := 2 *BAD* in (x + y) // invalid : *BAD* illegal The rule that describe the 'let' construct would look like : let <#var-def-list> in <#any> Which can't be described with a begin/end pattern, unless I can reference a repository rule from whitin the begin/end pattern. Can we do that ? Is there a way to acheive this ? Sylvain

Find/Replace strangeness

by Jack Baty

I may simply be confused, but I just had a global find/replace operation appear to go rather haywire on me and thought I'd ask about it. The following values were entered in the dialog... Find: <cfif Session.InAdminGroup IS "Yes"> Replace: <cfif Session.InAdminGroup> "Ignore case" was checked and "Regular expression" was unchecked. Here's what I ended up with in each replaced instance... <cfif NOT Session.In<cfif Session.InAdminGroup>> That doesn't seem quite right to me. -- Jack Baty Fusionary Media - http://www.fusionary.com

Useful ruby commands - anyone interested?

by Benjamin Jackson

Found this util today: http://eigenclass.org/hiki.rb? Enhanced+xmp+code+evaluation+and+annotation You feed it code and it puts the output in comments, i.e. a = 5 a # => would return a = 5 a # => 5 I set up a command to save and run this filter to replace the document and bound it to F10. Also a command to take the selected text, add ".inspect # =>" and push it to the clipboard.

TextMate screencasts - keyboard overlay?

by Jeremy Dunck

Like most on this list, I love TextMate. There are tons of useful features in it, and I keep finding new ones every date. I just stumbled on the Cmd-T file-find the other day, in fact. I just learned that my peeve about columnar selection was based on my ignorance of the fact that you can toggle to columnar by hitting Option after starting the selection. Every day, I'm pleasantly surprised by a new feature. However (and you knew that was coming...), the help files are a bit sparse, and the discoverability of some features is pretty bad. (By the way, the documentation wiki[1] seems to be down right now.) Screencasts are all the rage now, and I was thinking of making little 30 second - 1 minute demo vids of some useful but hidden TextMate features. The problem with that idea is that it's not just the screen people will be interested in, but the keyboard interaction. I'd like to provide a keyboard overlay on the demo vids, which would show which keys are being depressed to get the specific features to activate. Does anyone know how to do this? I'm familiar with vnc2swf and wink. I'm also considering buying Camtasia and/or Snapz Pro. I guess a "stay-on-top" utility could be used and just be captured along with the subject app usage. Any pointers appreciated... [1] http://macromates.com:3000/read/book/1

[REQ] Back/Forward buttons

by Edmundo Ortega

I didn't see this in the list, but that doesn't mean it's not there. It would be cool to have a back/forward functionality like in a browser. For example, I often use cmd-T to find a file to look up the signature of a class method or whatever. Then I want to go back to the last file I was viewing. If I have more than 8 files open, the tabs become useless. I could use cmd-W to close the file, but often times I have three files that I'm working on at one time and it would be nice to be able to just quickly switch between them in the order in which i've looked at them. Browser-ifying the tab system is a pet request of mine that I hope to someday see realized. TextMate is an amazing editor - thank you again, Allan. Ed

TM Interface problems.

by Rune Hansen

I apologize if this has been brought up before. Cutting and pasting text when in Python mode always pastes the text four spaces (my indent width) to far to the right . When pasting inside a <class>, text is pasted 8 spaces to far to the right measured from the current cursor position. <cmd>[ shift left does not work on my norwegian key map. (<cmd>] shift right does.) As you might imagine these two together is quite annoying ;) regards /rune "Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence"
