Hi all,
This may have been mentioned before somewhere, but before you tell me
to RTFM or look at the Wiki let me say that: I have, and I couldn't
find what i was looking for. So, here goes....
In his Ruby on Rails demonstration video clip, David Heinemeier Hansson
launches TextMate into a kind of "new project" mode automatically by
typing "e /folder/path" in the terminal. Genius ! But... how do I do
this ? Is this a feature of TextMate available to the application
itself ? For clarification of what I'm rambling on about, the Quicktime
clip is here: http://media.nextangle.com/rails/rails_setup.mov ( 2mins
18 seconds in ).
I wanted to ask this question here so others could benefit from the
answer before I go pester David for the answer !
Thanks in advance,
Paul Burgess.
I was selecting text using the shift/option/arrow keys today and at some
point my selection turned rectangular! However to my dismay I'm unable
to figure out what I did that allowed me to switch over. What's the secret?

This is an issue I encountered using the built in syntax definition for
Python - I don't like antialiasing so I have it switched off, unfortunately
the Python syntax uses italic format in comments, which looks appalling
without AA. I don't really want to switch AA on as that affects every
language, and I don't want to have to edit the Python bundle to remove the
italics. Is there a proposed solution to this? Would the style sheet
approach to syntax files help?

One of the few things that I had in vim that I don't in tm, and that I
miss, is a code beautifier. I would like one for Ruby. Does anyone
have some solution for this (like a command or something)? It would be
nice to be able to configure it too, like number of spaces for indents,
stuff like that. Undoubtedly, some Ruby guru has probably written a
Ruby beautifier in Ruby : )

TM 1.1b5
I'm trying to create a project containing the .files from my home
directory (.profile, .bashrc, &c.). When I explicitly add a .file to
the project, either by dragging a proxy icon from an existing TM
document, using the "tm" command line program (with multiple files), or
using "add existing files..." from the project drawer, the files just
disappear from the project. There used to be a per-project file/folder
pattern setting accessible from the info window, but that's gone, with
only the ability to edit per-project variables.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

I'm happy to see there's some kind of interest in my PHP bundle. I'm
still working on it so please contact me at [ cubiq at cubiq.org ] if
you have any suggestions. In the repository under the PHP.tmbundle
you'll also find a README file with some info and revision history.
The bundle contains about 3000 php functions, deprecated and
experimental ones have been stripped out for better performances, in
the README file you'll find excluded functions.
@Mats Persson: please contact me if you have any suggestions.
Best regards,
Matt
I'm wondering what's up with the website. It hasn't loaded for me for
well over a week.
I receive the following message when I go:
Precondition Failed
The precondition on the request for the URL / evaluated to false
OK, I was finally spurred into making my reworked PHP bundle available
for others to use and found that Matteo Spinelli is working on the
official PHP bundle. So Matteo, please get in touch to see what we can
work together on.
Allan, if Matteo is not here could you let me know his email ??
Secondly, I too like to get access to the svn for some other bundles
I've got.
Kind regards,
Mats

I think that might have been a little harsh. What I mean is this: The
web preview works awesome for real time viewing of html code. I am
amazed. Really. But, I don't know anyone who write HTML anymore.
Sometimes to make a Smarty Template, I'll write HTML and then retrofit
it, but usually not. The web preview needs to be able to read from a
valid URI, like http://127.0.0.1/projects/clientX/index.php
I would at least like to find a solution to get Safari and/or Firefox
to refresh on save. But I think the built in tool using webkit would
be coolest. Has anyone figured this out?
Thank you,

Hi
Im wanting to use the PHP bundle in textmate... but I was wondering how
i actually add it? I found the bundle i want:
http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/PHP.tmbundle/
And Ive just found the bundle editor :) Never used it before (bundle
editor)...
So im wondering how I go about adding it to my textmate? I have looked
in the wiki but havent found an answer...
Thanks
Eoghan
Hi,
Just wondering how to download complete bundles from the repository. I can
navigate around the trunk in safari and display all the individual files,
but how do you get a complete bundle?
Sorry if I am missing something, but couldn't there be zipped versions
available?

I've been working on an SQL syntax plist with some more keywords but I
can't see a way to pass in a "case insensitive" flag to the regex
matches. I've reverted to something ugly like this :
match="\\b(sum|SUM|count|COUNT)\\b" ... etc
any suggestions?
thx, K
Hi
Would it be possible in future versions for braces to be outlined, like:
{
}
if i select/go to the closing brace the opening brace row would be
outlined indicating its the opening one to me. Would also work for ()
and markup.
Thanks
Eoghan
After the small features request, here is a big one ;)
I'm sure we talked about it here, but I don't remember if this is
planned or not.
Actually, I use TextMate for everything text-related except one thing:
comparing two document(Diff).
Unfortunately I need this feature a lot. For me, this is "The Last Big
Thing" that TM misses.
The best solution I found so far is to have a command launching
TextWrangler to compare the active one and one I have to choose(w/Cocoa
Dialog).
1) The way to launch this is a bit clumsy. (Having to navigate thru an
"open" dialog)
2) Having TextWrangler opened just for that sucks a bit.
3) Having to edit the files in TW really sucks. I miss all the TM
goodness and It makes me feels I'm back in time. ;)
(And worst of all, I use TM shortcuts all the time and wonder why my
commands, snippets, etc. don't work 8-| )
4) This doesn't work with remote files, or I have to open them in TW.
Meaning changing the prefs of my SFTP client.
What I like in the "Compare two front documents" feature of TW:
-The full screen is shared by the two docs with the Differences window
under.
-You can navigate easily thru the diffs.
-Closing the Differences window brings the docs back where they were.
-It exists. ;)
You can even check differences of folders and batch files.
So, my question is:
Do you plan to implement this in TM, Allan?
If the answer is yes, any idea when we might expect this?
Meanwhile, does anybody have a better solution?

I've found myself using TM for almost every single thing that I write,
so sometimes I like to be able to create a new TM document in the
current Finder window.
Had a look at trying to create a Contextual Menu plug-in, but it looked
too complicated, so does anyone have a suggestion for how to do this ??
Kind regards,
Mats

Hi Mats,
I have already got skEdit and really like its implementation of the file
chooser thing I was proposing, its pretty much what I was trying to
emulate
in TM ;). However I have to agree that although it is a very good
editor it
can't match TM's flexibility, and I thought Texmate could offer the
best of
both.
I have put together a command that outputs filenames matching the first
few
letters but need a way of selecting options when there are multiple
results.
We'll have to wait for commands to output to a contextual menu to fully
realise some of the potential of these ideas, but when it is supported I
think there will be a lot of great tools available to us.

I know that could be achieved as a macro but I'd like to see a key to
exchange the character under the cursor and the next one, à la ^T under
emacs.
Thanks,

Maybe it would be a bit harder than I thought to make it backwards
compatible. Keep thinking about it though.
The reason I asked for it in the first place is that I was making a script
to insert filenames into textmate, a bit like pressing tab in terminal.
Sometimes I would get more than one result, and I wanted those to appear in
a list. Now I've been thinking about it though, it might be a nice thing to
have this behaviour built into Textmate.
An example would be that if you typed in an html document: "href='i" and
then pressed tab, you could invoke a menu which showed files matching 'i.*'.
It could even be multi-dimensional as in my included mock-up.

I hadn't really thought of the possibilities for the contextual menu, I
really thought of it for choosing a list of snippets to insert after a
selection. If it could run commands as well, that would be very cool.
XML sounds like a good way of generating the list, I don't use it that much,
but couldn't each 'menu item' have 'input', 'output' and 'action' children
to define what it should do?
Would it be possible for you to make a menu that just had a list of snippets
at the moment, which could be further expanded in the future? I look forward
to any progress in this regard.
Keep up the great work,
Max
Would it be possible to make a command output option that displays as a
menu. It would be like the current behaviour of commands, snippets etc that
have the same key command.
You could then have commands like 'ls $TM_FILEPATH', and choose from the
list.
