[TextMate] Weird "refresh" when switching back to TextMate after a save.

by Dominique Peretti

I'm working on a big php class file (with heavy coloring syntax bundle). I modify something. I save the file. I go to Safari and test. When I switch back to TextMate, it looks like TM is refreshing everyhing, being unavailable for 2 or 3 seconds with the spinning wheel. Then it seems to move to the caret (like when one presses command-J). Note that this does not happen if I don't save the file before. Dominique PERETTI http://www.lachoseinteractive.net

[TextMate] Syntax higlighting overriden by 1.0.1?

by bongoman

Hi there When I fired up the latest release, it seems that it has overriden my custom PHP/HTML syntax coloring. I had my own version in my home directory in the correct location. All of a sudden my php pages are with a dark background (#2e2e2e) when set to HTML(PHP) coloring. The weird thing is I can't find a reference to this hex value in any of the bundle files so I'm at a loss to correct it. I thought the bundle file saved as HTML-PHP.plist set the syntax coloring for HTML(PHP). If so, why is my local version with it's background color of #efefef not taking effect? Any clues appreciated... bongoman

[TextMate] Find peculiarities

by Richard Chamberlain

Hi, It may just be me but Find doesn't seem to work very well at the moment. (b8 btw) I've got a reasonably large file open (about 400 lines) and if I have no text selected I can Find no problem. If all of the text is selected (Through Select All) then Find doesn't work with either 'Entire File' or 'Selected Text'. If a small portion of text is selected then 'Entire File' appears to work but 'Selected Text' functions the same as Entire File, i.e. it ignores the selected text boundaries. Anyone seeing the same thing? Thanks, Richard

[TextMate] Shifting Selections and Folded Sections

by Gavin Kistner

1) If I put the cursor at the front of a collapsed, folded section and press tab, I expected (and desire) it to be the equivalent of performing a Shift Right on the entire fold. 2) (more controversial, perhaps) if I select a few lines, starting in the middle of the first line, I expect/desire Shift Right and Left to apply to the start of the line where the selection starts, not to insert tabs in the middle of it. In the following example, | marks the start and end of the selection: class Foo def bar puts "That's gre|at it starts with an earthquake" puts "birds and snakes and aeroplanes" puts "and Lenny |Bruce is not afraid." end end This selection is because I was in the middle of the word 'great' and performed shift+down arrow twice. When I Shift Right, it should do this: class Foo def bar | puts "That's great it starts with an earthquake" puts "birds and snakes and aeroplanes" puts "and Lenny Bruce is not afraid." | end end And not this: class Foo def bar puts "That's gre |at it starts with an earthquake" puts "birds and snakes and aeroplanes" puts "and Lenny |Bruce is not afraid." end end A workaround that I suppose I could get used to is to perform Select Line after selecting the text, before shifting...but that should happen automatically. (As noted in the example, the act of shifting left/right should not only affect the entire line, it should also select the full lines.) Operating in rectangular selection/column mode is a different story, but doesn't change how it should (IMO) behave in this case. -- (-, /\ \/ / /\/

[TextMate] cursor centering ... is it a bug?

by olivier hericord

hi....switching from tab to tab in textmate leads to a recentering of each page on the cursor...is it a feature or a bug? if it's a feature it would be cool to be able to switch it off on a user preference basis .... i find this terribly annoying cause that prevent me to scroll a text to see a portion of code, and then to switch back and forth .... i also have this undo stack disappearing .... very strange keep up the good work...textmate rocks thanks

[TextMate] Set Mark

by Wayne Larsen

Hi all, With window splitting implemented, I may consider switching from emacs. One thing that gets me though is that 'Set Mark' does not seem to work properly. I use this all the time to select a block of text without having to hold down shift. "setMark:" is set in my Default Key Binding, yet I get the blip of unknown command from TextMate when I try to use it. This works great in TextEdit, btw. What do other people use to select text without using the mouse? I could hold down shift, but then that blocks me from using my other bindings (^p and ^n for line up and down respectively). Is shift and the arrow keys the only option? Thanks, Wayne

[TextMate] re: Heuristic for smart typing pairs

by Chris Jenkins

Heres another idea which Im pretty sure would satisfy my original comment. Currently TM inserts the closing character of the pair at the same point as the user types the opening character, if on the other hand it waits for one more key press before deciding whether to insert the closing part of the pair, it could perhaps make a better guess as to whether that is what the user wants. For example; moving the cursor could be construed as a cancelling operation, so the closing character would be omitted if the user simply pops back to add a quote character to the start of a word and then clicks somewhere else in the document (or uses the arrow keys), whereas simply continuing to type after pressing the opening character would be construed as a confirmation and the closing character inserted as it is now. so what im saying is: wait to see what the user types next, and then decide whether to insert the closing part of the pair. does that make sense?

[TextMate] Text clarity

by Drew McLellan

I'm not sure if this relates to my system or a particular (undocumented) tweak in the latest build, but all the outstanding text peculiarities have cleared up. For example, in ProFont 9pt anti-aliased I was seeing a lowercase 'L' being represented at double thickness (2px). This has all gone, and it's *beautiful*. Along with all the other visual tweaks in the latest build, TextMate is really sweeping me away. My dollars are going down today. New customer. drew.

[TextMate] Selection Idea

by James Andrews

Not sure if this has been suggested before (or even if it already lies hidden beneath the sleek exterior of TM and I'm just an idiot), but I would like to be able to shift-click or alt-click on a fold to select all contained text rather than expanding or collapsing the fold. This can then be used for drag/drop, copy/cut and paste and, most importantly for me, search and replace criteria, i.e. allowing me to use search within selection to quickly do replaces within a single defined function or other logical block. A further possibility, which may be a step too far, is to use shift-alt click to select multiple, non-contiguous, folds though I suspect that this would be too confusing and not useful enough. Views? Thanks again for a great product. Cheers, James

[TextMate] Re: Heuristic for smart typing pairs

by Chris Jenkins

Yeah, that's what I figured, in fact the more I think about it, the less simple it seems to become! Its one of those classic software problems, in making something "smart" there are always occasions when its not so smart. Perhaps Ill just get my friend to adjust her typing style. > "only surrounded by white space" doesn't work -- consider something > like $foo[' which smart typing should match with '] automatically, yet > neither the [ or ' are surrounded by white space. > > "only FOLLOWED by white space" is a bit better, but still doesn't work > > "only surrounded by white space or other smart typing pairs" is a lot > better > > ... but I think in practice, it will take a lot of thinking before a > real solution is found... no quick patch here :) ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.

[TextMate] Ruby regexp highlighting

by Peter McMaster

The ruby regexp highlighting works much better now, but still gets confused by something like: %r{hel{2,10}o} (The highlighting stops at the first "}"). Adding this: { name = "Arbitrary repetition"; match = "({\\d+(,\d+)?})"; foregroundColor = "#CCCC33"; } to the Regular Expression II set in Ruby.plist appears to sort this. Doesn't work if you have a regexp like this though: %r{foo\{2,10} Admittedly it's a bit of an extreme edge case, but if someone with better regexp skillz feels like figuring it out... (Note: I don't subscribe to this list, but do check the archives every so often.) - Peter

There currently is no way to define foldingstopmarkers for these things. Allan informed me that he is planning to rewrite the folding code so that it is possible to fold these things. Jeroen. PS.

[TextMate][command] W3C validator

Hi All, I'm trying to create a new command to submit current file to W3C html validator. This one does not work : open http://validator.w3.org/check/$TM_FILEPATH Of cours I could install the validator directly in MacOS X as <http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/validator.html> but the first way seemed easier.

[TextMate] Custom Shell Variables question

by Mats Persson

OK, I might be opening my mouth and removing all doubts about my stupidity here, but I can't think of a solution to this problem, so here goes.. I have a project in the following location: [ /Users/mats/Sites/projectName/ ] In my template I use Custom Shell variables to auto-enter the relevant info. The "TM_FILEPATH" returns: [ /Volumes/WorkDisk/Users/mats/Sites/projectName/index.php ] *but* I would prefer to have: [ /projectName/index.php ] in other words remove [ /Volumes/WorkDisk/Users/mats/Sites ] from the TM_FILEPATH or alternatively create a new shell variable with this info only. I guess that I would use some form of 'grep' and remove the bits that I don't want, but I can't work out how. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Mats

[TextMate] Find & Replace problems in b8

by Sune Foldager

A few Find&Replace problems: 1. If you Replace and Find without a prior Find, it will just insert the replace text at the carret. This could be a feature, but I think it would be better if it just did a Find in that case instead. 2. When a window is outof focus, selection highlighting is dimmed. This makes it _very_ hard to see where Find has found a particular word since the Find window is the active one during F&R. -- Sune.

[TextMate] Feature Request: Per Project Shell Variables

In a very spooky coincidence I was just writing an e-mail with this feature request when the above appeared in my inbox. : ) So here's my take on project-specific shell variables. As a web developer I have a number of current projects on the go in my ~Sites folder. For each project I have a number of variables that are common and would ideally be possible to collect and auto-enter into new files or Macros. Examples: Project Dev URL: (local desktop URL) Project Live URL: ClientName: Development Version: etc etc. So I was thinking that we could have the following section in the .tmproj file, (which is a .plist file really): <key>ProjectShellVariables</key> <dict> <key>TM_PROJECT_CLIENTNAME</key> <string>MacroMates.</string> <key>TM_PROJECT_VERSION</key> <string>1.0</string> <key>TM_PROJECT_LIVEURL</key> <string>http://www.macromates.com/</string> <key> TM_PROJECT_DEVURL</key> <string>http://macromates.dev/</string> </dict> Later on there could be a GUI for this functionality as well - sort of a copy of Macros/Snippets/Commands window -, but to begin with we could open the .tmproj file in TM / Property List Editor and add/change our own variables. If these variables could be accessed in Snippets, Commands and when creating new files as well it would be even greater. Also if the .tmproj file could remember the toggled state of groups/directories inside the project drawer when closing the project it would be great as well. Kind regards, Mats
