Openin projects with mate

by victor jalencas

Hi there, a question has occurred to me while trying to open a project from the command line: Is there any way to open a project with mate (I can't see any switch that does so) or do I have to use OSX's open command? Would you consider, Allan, adding support for this? It'd avoid users having to switch depending on the file name (file type,actually) when invoking mate from a script Cheers Victor -- Victor Jalencas <Victor.Jalencas(a)gmail.com>

Find dialog unresponsive

by Matthew Gilbert

Hi All, Has anyone else experienced an unresponsive find dialog? Occasionally, when I bring up find, it will let me type in the find entry box, but clicking on any of the UI elements does nothing. Sometimes I can hit escape to make the dialog go away, but usually I can't do anything to make it go away or work and have to restart TextMate. This is common for me on both of my macs. But maybe its something in my setup. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this to help track down what might be causing it. Thanks _matt

Show file in drawer

by Ed Wong

A few times I've wished this feature was present. I have huge projects with many folders and the files can number in the thousands, sometimes with the same names but in different folders (i.e index.php). At times I'd like to go to the folder in the drawer that a currently opened file is from (to open another related file for instance) but that folder and file may exist several layers deep in another folder that is now closed. It would be nice to have a command (either from menu or right clickable menu) that will open the folder hierarchy to expose the folder and file list. Thanks, Ed

tmTheme: Slate

by Wilson Miner

Here's a theme I made for personal use, but I've been enjoying it so much I thought I'd share it around. I've always been fond of dark backgrounds, but not *that dark. I started this one as a compromise, inspired by colored chalk on a chalkboard.

Automation UI suggestion: "replay last"

by Paul Bissex

I'd love to see three new items in the Automation submenus: Replay Macro > Replay [name of last macro selected] Insert Snippet -> Insert [name of last snippet selected] Run Command -> Run [name of last command selected] It's very common for me to have tasks where I dig out some obscure command that I rarely use, use it repeatedly in a given session, and then forget about it. Keyboard shortcuts make sense for tasks that are done repeatedly -- either very often, or in repetitive bursts less often. This feature would allow many seldom-used commands of the latter type to go without permanent keyboard shortcuts, freeing up combos for more commonly used commands. Obviously, these new menu choices themselves would need keyboard shortcuts. One subtle point: by "last * selected" I mean that this would apply only to macros/snippets/commands manually chosen from the menus (either the regular menus or the status bar menus). That way, other keyboard commands wouldn't needlessly get picked up by this feature; if you have invoked a macro/snippet/command via the keyboard, you obviously don't need this feature to remember it. I actually got this idea from Photoshop, which allows you to invoke the last-used filter with cmd-F. I love TM's combination of high power and low cruft. IMO this feature would increase usability and at the same time decrease the need for crazy five-key-mash keyboard shortcuts on obscure bundle features. thanks for listening, pb -- Paul Bissex http://e-scribe.com/news/ Northampton MA USA 01061-0847

IntelliJ / TextMate in Java (was: Java Integration in TextMate)

by Dev Purkayastha

[Kindly tell me if I should move this off-list.] > Even if you worked for free or peanuts, you would miss the many features > that helps you write clean and solid code (the inspections), the > integrated JUnit integration, the code formatter, the code pointer > sharing (ideTalk plugin), etc, etc... I did try it for a month, but it didn't quite *click* for me. I appreciated the code sense and such, but I ultimately had a hard time reaching for all the other options (e.g. refactoring, etc.). It could be that I just need more programming experience in Java to "feel" the need for these extra tools. As such, it was heard enough for me to stop using vim! (Also, my first point was a bit in jest. I would spend $500 for a superior IDE I felt comfortable using, but I simply preferred the faster response time of within TextMate rather than the general sluggishness that came about from IntelliJ.) > (2) Couldn't bear what IntelliJ was doing to my PowerBook's RAM. > I guess it depends on your project's size, but it works fine on mine, > with 1GB and java 5. I'm actually on a 1.25 GB PowerBook. Alain, would you mind if I write you privately, to compare our IntelliJ configurations? thanks, dev

Really weird behavior w/ Python Bundle

by Steve Lianoglou

Howdy, For some reason, this is only happening on my laptop .. an old g3 lombard, but anyhow, I'm using the latest build of TM. Let me set the stage here: I'm working on some Python stuff ... Looking @ the bottom status bar/whatever you call, the Language is clearly marked as Python (yay). When I open that Language menu from down there I don't see Python in the drop down list that opens. If I deselect the menu w/o choosing a language, it says python. If I switch the language from python, there's no way to switch it back -- though if I restart TM, the file is correctly flagged as python. It looks like the Python bundle isn't loading, or isn't being shown .. I found this weirdness because I was trying to do a cmd- shift-v to check my syntax and it didn't do anything ... so I went digging for it in the Commands and noticed there is no Python bundle/ choice anywhere in the bundle editor. I moved my /Library/App Support/TextMate/Bundles stuff out to make sure there was no collisions ... maybe it had something to do w/ the svn bundles .. but no, still same thing. There are no bundles in ~/Library/App Support/TextMate/Bundles The only bundles it's using now are the ones in /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles (which has the Python.tmbundle) So I'm a bit confused as to what's going on ... my desktop doesn't display this behavior at all. Hmm ... the laptop is running OS X.3.9 The desktop has OSX.4.3 As a side note, this behavior seems to be isolated to Python ... when woring w/ PHP on the lappy everything seems to be fine. That's all the info I got. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks, -steve

Java support in TextMate

by Soryu

Hey Eric and all Java Programmers using TextMate, /me and Brian Lalor are currently working on the Java Syntax a bit. > The big evil Java might be the last to succumb, though. Are there > others on this list who would like to jettison Eclipse, too? What > can we do to improve Java editing in TM? What would be your minimum > list of features? Eclipse is very deticated to Java. it even comes with its own incremental compiler so that it can highlight errors before you manually compiled the file and can do much more than a regexp language grammar that way, like it know about types and variables all the time and so on. If one knows how to work with it and needs all those nice features like a builtin debugger, great autocompletion and documentation lookup (I love that and certainly depend on a lot of features of eclipse) there is no way around it. If one is new to a language on the other hand, a nice little editor and writing all the code from hand is a good way to learn the language, so one learns what he is doing instead of eclipse doing it for him. If I find the time, I will put some effort into it (Juggling with jobs at the moment). It would be great, if some more people would communicate here on the list or in the irc channel on how to improve the current situation. I know you are out there, Java guys! ;) Soryu

two things on language bundle syntax definitions

by Paul Bissex

I'm enjoying learning how to tweak the language bundles, and there's a lot of good information in the help files and the wiki. There's one small thing so far that I haven't found a good way to do. I'm playing with adding support for heredoc-style embedded HTML in PHP document and have added this to the PHP language syntax definition (version 2.0): { name = 'meta.scope.heredoc'; begin = '<<<HTML'; end = '^HTML;'; patterns = ( { include = 'text.html.basic'; } ); } (Hopefully I haven't made too many embarassing mistakes in those four lines. It seems to work, anyway.) What I'd like to do is also specially color the heredoc tags, just to make the beginning and end of each block stand out. Is there a "right way" to do that? A second, minor point about documentation: the wiki says "With regard to syntaxes...there is a help page on how to define these." But the term "syntaxes" isn't actually used in the TextMate help. That didn't stop me from finding the help pages, but this seems like something that would be good to clean up in the wiki for consistency's sake. What's the canonical name for these language syntax definitions? thanks, pb -- paul bissex 69.55.225.29 01061-0847 72°39'71"W 42°19'42"N

Several recent issues

by Robin Berjon

Hi, I have noticed two issues being introduced in recent builds that were not there before. The first one was introduced in in build 715. I used to have Cmd+2 and Cmd+4 (actually Cmd+é and Cmd+' respectively since this is a French keyboard) bound to "Set Tab Size: 2" and "4" respectively. Using the latest build, these do not work anymore, and since there isn't a menu item for them I can't seem to be able to re-set them (I use APE Menu Manager for that). I tried setting them on the menu at the bottom but it doesn't persist. Also, apparently some new functionality has captured these key bindings. I used to have a keyboard shortcut to fold/unfold the current block. This only half-works anymore. It'll unfold and fold once or twice and then stop working for that block. If I move around and do something else, it becomes possible again. Mapping the Ctrl+F key to that produces very strange results (this worked at some point), but using other key combinations doesn't work either. Neither Cmd+Shift+A nor Cmd+Shift+N to add existing files or create new ones in the current project work anymore, even though they appear to be bound when I right-click in the drawer. Thanks for any help or fixes, -- Robin Berjon Senior Research Scientist Expway, http://expway.com/

Tidy on word html

Enhancement request for new "symbol" in status bar

by Dylan Smith

Hello-- I really love the new symbol button in the status bar. I write a lot of JavaScript using prototype methods, however, so dozens of methods are tucked under one main function name. It would be great if these would show up as distinct symbols (e.g. main, main.prototype.methodName1, main.prototype.methodName2, etc.). TextMate just keeps getting better, thanks. --Dylan

Seperate 'Open Recent' for Project Files?

by Jonas Witt

Wouldn't it be cool to have a seperate MRU list for .tmproj project files? This way they won't get pushed off the list by other independent small files. Older projects are more important than files, IMO. Jonas

Tidy change?

by Eric Knapp

Hi All, I use TM for lots of HTML and I use the built-in tidy command all the time. The behavior of the command changed recently and it is now doing something that I was about to request as a feature! The old behavior was that after the tidy command the current line was now the very bottom of the file. The new behavior is that the current line stays where I was editing. This is great! It was a serious pain to have to find the line I was just on to keep working. I just want to make sure that this was done on purpose and will stay this way. Thanks! BTW, I will soon be attending the Pragmatic Studio workshop on Ruby on Rails so I hope to be soon using TM for Ruby. Slowly, but very surely, I am switching over to TM. The big evil Java might be the last to succumb, though. Are there others on this list who would like to jettison Eclipse, too? What can we do to improve Java editing in TM? What would be your minimum list of features? -Eric

Re: Feature request: project templates

by Chris Jenkins

> Not really -- in principle there should be nothing wrong with having > a normal (file) template generate a project, although I'd have to > spot the .tmproj extension. Allan, That sounds like the way we'd like to go, seems like the right place in the app for the feature to exist as well, we don't really have the skills to delve into ObjC and write a plugin (although Im sure it cant be THAT hard), so some form of script (perl or python) is probably the easiest way to go, we are working on something that can ask the user for input and then copy across a whole directory of files, what is it about the .tmproj extension you need to change?

Run Command Confusion

by Simon Gregory

It's just taken me a while to work out that the reason a command from Automation > Run Command > etc... Wasn't working because I didn't have a document open - it's been a long day ;) . I know this may be been discussed before but how possible would it be for the commands to be greyed out when they can't be called? Or is there a way to exec a command from the list when there isn't a document open that I'm missing. Cheers, Simon
