Thanks for the feedback, Danstan, The only way I've been able to figure out to run selections is to save the selection to a temporary file and run the temporary file. Alan suggested saving the file in /temp/somthing.do, rather than in the current working directory. I think that makes sense and will give it a bid. I looked at the R bundle's implementation of running a selection, and as best I could tell (not very well, granted) it relies on some AppleScript that Stata doesn't recognize. Simply stealing the R implementation was my first instinct, but I couldn't get it to work (which doesn't mean, it can't work, just that I couldn't get it to work). Alan, Thanks for the suggestions, I think I'll probably use both of them, Tim

[PATCH] more perl quoting

by Grant Hollingworth

I added support for some more valid (if unusual) Perl quoting. * added <> delimiters for q, qq, qw, qx, m * allow whitespace before delimiters (broken for s///) * fixed s[][] * fixed s()() I'm a little confused by string.regexp.replaceXXX. Was it intended to replace string.regexp.replace.perl?

Little graphic user interface fix

by Urbanose

Hello there :] I was always annoyed by this black line in the "Go To Symbol" toolbox : Damit, it should be gray like in the "Select Bundle Item" toolbox ! In order to fix this, just put the "SymbolChooser.nib" file there : /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/ Confirm the replacement, restart TextMate and enjoy. Urbanose

Language grammar help

by Jon Evans

Hi, I've thrown together a language grammar for spotting clichés in text (attached). I've based the regexp pattern on the list[1] at the Plain English campaign website. Incidentally, I was prompted to browse the Plain English website when I read this in the latest release notes: > When setting shellVariables as a scope dependent preference, it will eclipse > only those settings (with less specific scope selector) that sets a variable > also being set by the one with the more specific scope selector. :-) I need some advice though, because I've never tried writing a language grammar before: 1) is the scope text.plain the best one to extend? The intention is that this grammar is applied to all English text 2) Can I extend text.plain so my grammar gets used when "Plain Text" is selected in the language selector? At the moment I have to select "Check for Clichés" 3) Is the name of the selector OK? I chose "meta.cliche" 4) I originally tried the selector name "meta.cliché" but the fonts & colours highlighting didn't work with that name. I had to drop the accent. Bug? Thanks Jon [1]: http://www.plainenglish.co.uk/cliches.htm

New template files not appearing in the file-browser

by Milen Dzhumerov

Hello all, I've tried creating my own template which consists of two files (a header & an implementation). It all works fine but when I execute the template one the implementation file opens up & shows up in the browser although the header physically exists in the folder -> so I have to reopen the project to make it show up. I've duplicated my template from the Singleton Obj-C template and I can't figure it out why it is misbehaving. Any hints are greatly appreciated. Kind regards, M

HTML bundle single tag behavior

by Ron Booker

Hi all, I'm having a problem with my HTML bundles behavior concerning single tags and HTML completion. When I use the snippet for inserting a tag, it inserts the tags properly, but does not automatically include the trailing slash for single tags like <br> and <meta>. It also doesn't work when I specify the doctype as XHTML. Has anyone else had this trouble or has it been previously addressed? I was wondering if, since the snippet in the bundle is written in Ruby, if the problem could be with the version of Ruby I have installed on my system. Thanks -Ron

Backpack Bundle pre-release 2

by Brett Terpstra

For those who care to check it out: http://blog.circlesixdesign.com/ 2006/11/22/backpack-bundle-updated/ If you previously used the bundle, please note that you'll need to run the "Change Backpack Account" command and re-enter your username and API Key, as the storage mechanism for the key has changed for the time being. Also note that the "Token" refers to the API Key (found at the bottom of your "Account" page) and not your user password. The changelog is included in the post, but I'll give the list of features here so you can decide if you're interested ;-). Features * Stores your username and API key once and allows you to switch accounts when necessary Pages: * Add and remove pages Reminders: * Create reminders from selected text or from scratch, using “Minutes from now” or date picker * Destroy a single reminder from a popup list * Destroy multiple reminders from a multi-select dialog * Select a reminder from a popup list and edit it * See a list of upcoming reminders sorted by “Today”, “This week” and “Future” (color coded) Notes: * Add selected text or document as a note, or edit a blank note. Notes are added to a selected page (a page must be selected) * View/Edit a note from a tree dialog, select a page->note->edit note and save. Titles can be edited by double clicking. Only last selected note is updated. * Destroy note from similar dialog. Allows previewing of notes so you don’t have to decide by title alone. Account: * Change your username and token at any time from a dialog. I'm looking for ideas and suggestions (and take criticism well, when it's politely offered).

Can someone bring back HTML (PHP) bundle?

by Ryan Masuga

Hi all - I hadn't upgraded Textmate in quite a while and just recently did so (I think I had 1.2, and I'm at 1.5 now - needed to do this to get the GetBundle Bundle to work) and I noticed that the HTML (PHP) language selection is gone - now either HTML or PHP is all red, rather than both languages being colored correctly at the same time. I was reading a little in the lists and see that PHP is more of a 'top level' language now, but for those of us who have pages filled with HTML and PHP I'd love to see these files colored that way they were before. For comparison, I have a HTML (ASP) bundle that seems to work like my old HTML(PHP) bundle. I tried recreating my old bundle using the ASP one as a guide, but no luck. Can this be remedied? Thanks. ryan

output pretty printing HTML in "Show as HTML"

by Dirk van Oosterbosch, IR labs

Hi, after my successful attempt to output a "designated" test url in Safari, I'd now like to make a command which shows the rendered html in a TextMate browser window. That is show _the actual html itself_, not the browser-interpretation of that html. My system of scripts and templates generate html. Now I like to see that output html with nice code coloring in my favorite theme. I see roughly two solutions: output the result of 'curl "$MY_URL"' in a TextMate HTML browser window or create a new (html) document from that output. I would like the HTML Browser window variant much better. For (1) because it keeps only one window –i.e. it refreshes itself when it's already open, instead of opening a 2nd window–, (2) because I won't be tempted to edit the output HTML, and (3) because when I might become really smart –for which the changes are extremely slim, based on previous records ;)– I might be able to give blocks of html code a href to jump back to the specific code in the specific template file (I just *love* the TODO bundle. It saved me so much time. Life has become much more convenient :-)) My first problem is the with output of Apache restarting: it's not quiet. I need Apache to restart for all the last versions of my templates to become effective, but the following code echo "$PWD" | sudo -S apachectl $APACHE_CMD (line 43 from apachectlUsingKeychain.sh in Apache Bundle Support Folder) outputs "Password:", since sudo is asking for that. Is there a way to make this statement quiet? 2nd, about the Create New Document variant. How to set the scope of such a newly created document? Right now there is nothing indicating to TextMate that is might be html, so the output stays unstyled. Finally on to the core of this email: How to get HTML pretty printed in a (HTML parsing) browser window? I am looking at examples like pastie [1] or TextMate Theme Sourcerer [2]. Are the solutions used in these web 2.0 projects also available for my TextMate commands? Best dirk [1]: http://pastie.caboo.se/ [2]: http://projects.serenity.de/textmate/codestyler/source.php

export property list keys as BASH variables

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Dear all, here comes my first approach for a BASH function to export <key>=<value> out from a property list. # # exportpl set BASH variables according to the property list <key>=<value> # # if <value> is an array tag a BASH array will be returned # if <value> is a date tag output format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZGMTshift # # all variable values are UTF-8 encoded # # if a given key is not specified in plist an empty string will be returned # # each variable is named TMD_<key> (with prefix TMD_) # # Usage: # # exportpl <data|file> {key1 key2 key3 ... keyn} # # data := string containing valid plist data # file := plist file [.plist extension is not necessary] # key1...keyn :=?valid key(s) for plist # # # Examples: ('output' is an array with 8 items) # # a) # KEY=("returnCode" "output") # . "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/bin/exportpl.sh "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/bin/test.plist ${KEY[@]} # echo $TMD_returnCode # echo ${TMD_output[0]} # # # # b) # . "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/bin/exportpl.sh "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/bin/test returnCode output # echo $TMD_returnCode # echo ${TMD_output[5]} # # c) # DIA=$( cat "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/bin/test.plist | tm_dialog -m test ) # . "$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT"/bin/exportpl.sh "$DIA" # #all key(s) for $DIA are exported # What should I add/change/etc. ? I used the objectC2Perl bridge to parse the plist data. The only thing I don't know yet whether the perl library 'Foundation' is installed as default. Tomorrow I will check this at a fresh Mac installation without 'Developer Toolkit'.

Re: making a new bundle from old

by William Scott

Hi Michael: I've put the stuff here: http://xanana.ucsc.edu/xtal/ textmate_extra_bundles.tgz Please remember this is still rather rough, and I'm not sure I'm doing things right. Almost everything I have in this either would work with bash or will work with trivial modifications (I could change "print" to "echo" and figure out a workaround to the different array indexing conventions (zsh defines the first element of an array as having index 1, bash and every other computer language seem to agree on 0). So if some of these things were to be incorporated, I suggest that a separate zsh bundle not be made. bash has become more and more zsh- like in syntax, and the stuff like [[ condition ]] used in zsh is already in the Scripting Bundle. If there is to be a new shell script bundle, I would suggest having two scripting bundles: One that is Bourne/Korn-like, and one that is tcsh-like, in its syntax. This is a more natural divide. The current Scripting Bundle isn't really useful for tcsh scripts apart from the syntax highlighting and commands. It probably isn't worth the trouble to have a separate zsh bundle. Most people script in bash. I like zsh because I learned ksh and it is quite elegant, but isn't as portable (yet) as bash. I've been happily using (and adding to) the bash-centric scripting bundle for a couple of months now. In my zsh bundle, I've got a bunch of shell/osascript snippets. I think changing print to echo is all that would be needed to make them bash-compatible (at least the ones I just tested). I don't know if they would be of general interest, but they permit the scripter to use some simple OS X gui elements in their shell scripts, which is kind of entertaining. I modified the "Run Script" command to permit the user to enter arguments to the shell script before running it. Although I wrote the command in zsh, there is no reason why bash or tcsh users can't use it. Maybe it should be shift-command-R (if that is not taken) to allow the user the choice. I also put in some conditional test snippets and a few other generic things that may or may not be of interest. HTH, Bill William G. Scott contact info: http://chemistry.ucsc.edu/~wgscott

making a new bundle from old

by William Scott

Hi citizens: I found myself extensively modifying the Shell Script bundle for zsh- specific things. I eventually experienced what drunks refer to as a moment of clarity: Maybe having a separate ZSH bundle would be a good thing. So I renamed the bundle to zsh, then edited the Shell Script (bash) Language file, changed scopeName to 'source.zsh', and then changed all other instances of source.shell to source.zsh in the Scope Selector window in the other files. It seems to work, but then when I went to put the default Shell Script bundle back in, it instead reversed changes I had made in stuff in the new zsh bundle. So I deduced I am doing something wrong, that TextMate still identifies this with the previously named bundle, and the two won't co-exist until I fix the problem. However, since I took a rather backward approach, I am not clear on what else I need to change in order for TextMate to recognize my attempt at a zsh bundle as something separate from the old Shell Script bundle. I've made some new bundles de novo, but I an not clear on how to fix the mess I made here. Thanks. Bill PS: Once I have something nonpathological, I am happy to share it.

Problem with Markdown: Convert Document/Selection to RTF

by Simon Ruderich

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi, I tried to convert a Markdown file to RTF, but all german Umlauts were broken. To fix this I added "-inputencoding UTF-8" to the textutil command in the Bundle Editor. This is not a clean fix because the input file could have any encoding but I don't have a better idea how to fix this. I also tried the other commands, but they have some problems too: The "Convert to LaTeX" commands are not working. They fail with the following message: - -:3: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document <ul> ^ unable to parse - And "Convert to PDF" fails because it can't find htmldoc, don't know if it should be installed on my computer. Could anybody please look into these problems.

xelatex functionality suddenly not working

by Kieran Healy

Hi - Textmate's (or the Latex bundle's) ability to tell when to use xelatex instead of pdflatex has stopped working for me. Documents that compiled quite happily yesterday won't do so today. I checked in the Latex bundle's "Typeset and View" command to see whether anything had changed, but the relevant lines are still there: > # Set up TeX compiler, fallback to xelatex if document indicates it, > if grep -Esq '\\usepackage{.*(xunicode|fontspec)|program=xelatex' "$M" > then DEF_TEX=xelatex My xelatex documents all have \usepackage{xunicode} and \usepackage {fontspec} in them, so this should work just fine, and has been working fine. But it doesn't now. Instead Textmate tries to run pdflatex on the document, resulting in a failure. The only thing that's changed is that this morning I updated the Latex bundle and the Support folder from the subversion repository. Has something changed in there that would cause this problem? Best, Kieran

GTD request

by Piero D'Ancona

Hi Haris, let's compromise :) It's again my request that arbitrary text lines (for notes) can be included in gtd files (and simply ignored by the parser). Are you really against it? This would give much greater flexibility to the format, with only some minor risk, but that's my opinion. But if you are really against, what about the following format: 1) gtd files can be divided into two sections, separated by some delimiter (e.g., a line like #### PROJECTS AND ACTIONS #### or something similar) 2) above the delimiter line I can write anything, it's ignored by the parser 3) below the line I write projects and actions and here the syntax is strict: only projects and actions are allowed. With this kind of format, the flexibility would be enhanced as I need. At the same time, any mistake in writing tasks or projects would be spotted by the parser. What do you think? (Please?) Ciao, Piero

GTDalt Bundle

I just downloaded and reinstalled the latest version of Textmate. It says I have version 5861 of Support which is the same on the server. Could there be a problem with my Dialog plugin?

A Hack to Handle Files that Mix Tabs and Spaces for Indentation

by Kornelius Kalnbach

hi list! I may have found a workaround to solve this old problem: http://one.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/2004-December/002039.html PROBLEM Sometimes, coders choose to use an indentation width different from the (hard) tab width. An example C file may look like this: static VALUE rb_str_insert(VALUE str, VALUE idx, VALUE str2) { [4 SPACES] if (pos == -1) { [TAB] pos = RSTRING_LEN(str); [4 SPACES] } [4 SPACES] else if (pos < 0) { [TAB] for(i=pos;i--;) { [TAB][4 SPACES] ... Emacs and Vim allow this (eg. :set sw=4 ts=8). Of course, nobody should use this, but there *are* some codes in that style (notably the Ruby source code), and I want to use TextMate to edit them. Changing tab width doesn't work here: - setting it to 4 spaces makes the code unreadable; - setting it to 8 spaces makes automatic indentation indent everything twice as deep as the original code, thus breaking the style. Converting all the tabs would break the version history and make diffs harder. SOLUTION So I wrote two little Ruby one-liner commands to convert back and forth between both styles. Convert TAB -> 8 SPACE: "${TM_RUBY:=ruby}" -pne 'gsub(/^\t+/) { " " * 8 * $&.size }' Convert 8 SPACE -> TAB: "${TM_RUBY:=ruby}" -pne 'gsub(/^ {8}+/) { "\t" * ($&.size/8) }' Both: Input: Selected Text or Document Output: Replace Selected Text Activation: Option-Command-X When I have a code like the one above, I just: - set the tabs size to Soft-Tabs: 4, - use "Convert TAB -> 8 SPACE", - edit, compile, and test with spaces only - convert it back with "Convert 8 SPACE -> TAB" before a diff or commit. I think this covers most cases; you can easily modify the commands to your needs. LIMITATIONS Of course, the scripts don't handle cases where you explicitely want tab or spaces, like in heredocs or something. Your version system should save you. Or you can select only the part you want to convert and run the commands on it. Oh, and I didn't test it much yet. But it seems to work ;) I hope this makes Patching Ruby easier for TextMate users! Enjoy :) [murphy]

Blogging - iTunes fun

by Brett Terpstra

Just a couple quick commands for the blogging bundle that use an applescript to insert the current iTunes track or album into your post. I figured if Ecto could do it... TM better be able to. If you're not sure where to stick the script (/Library... ~/ Library... Pristine Copy, etc.) just drag the "Determine Script Location" command to the bundle that you want the commands in (i.e. the Blogging Bundle) and run it. Brett

strange behaviour with linefeeds/spaces/carriage returns

by Sam Aaron

Hi there, I had this hideous bug in on of my rjs templates. The bug was in this line: page[:login].visual_effect :blind_down now, most of you (who know rjs) will think that's a perfectly good line. However, there is a bug in it. That line gets converted to this javascript: $("login").visualEffect ("blind_down"); It turns out that the character between the .visual_effect and the :blind_down is *not* a standard space. It's some sort of carriage return/line feed which is displayed as a space in TextMate (and Mail it seems too). Now, not wanting to spark up any editor wars or anything, but BBEdit displays the lines like this: page[:login].visual_effect :blind_down $("login").visualEffect ("blind_down"); so it's now obvious where the bug is... and why my div wasn't blinding down ;-) Is there any way I can get TextMate to alert me to the fact that this character *isn't* a space? And therefore stop this hair-pulling bug from happening again :-) SAm

Hi all, When I run this in TextMate with the Execute and Update command I get this: RUBY_VERSION # => "1.8.2" But, when I use irb in a terminal window I get this: irb(main):001:0> RUBY_VERSION => "1.8.4" Why aren't they the same? I am reading the Pragmatic TextMate book and it shows 1.8.4 inside of TextMate. Thanks, -Eric

errant rubymate output when dealing with threads

by jeanpierre＠gmail.com

i am seeing some strange rubymate output when working with threads - at times text is not printed on separate lines (when using puts rather than print) and at others, the text is not printed at all. any suggestions to resolve the rubymate behavior or pointers to where i could? regards, jean-pierre sample 1: mate = Thread.new do puts "Ahoy! Can I be dropping the anchor sir?" Thread.stop puts "Aye sir, dropping anchor!" end Thread.pass puts "CAPTAIN: Aye, laddy!" mate.run mate.join output from rubymate: Ahoy! Can I be dropping the anchor sir?CAPTAIN: Aye, laddy! Aye sir, dropping anchor! expected output: Ahoy! Can I be dropping the anchor sir? CAPTAIN: Aye, laddy! Aye sir, dropping anchor! sample 2: homicide = Thread.new do while true puts "Don't kill me!" Thread.pass end end suicide = Thread.new do puts "This is all meaningless!" Thread.exit end Thread.kill(homicide) output from rubymate: <nothing> expected output: Don't kill me! This is all meaningless! Don't kill me!

Bugs in LaTeX highlighting

by Trevor Harmon

I'm using the current (as of a few minutes ago) Subversion repository for TextMate bundles, and I'm having a problem with the LaTeX mode's highlighting. The problem is with the "lstlisting" environment (and possibly others). With the default Mac Classic theme, this environment is supposed to have a light blue background. However, while writing a recent paper, the highlighting often did not work the way it's supposed to. To demonstrate the problem, I've attached three LaTeX files. The rightway.tex file shows how the highlighting is supposed to be; the wrongway1.tex and wrongway2.tex files show incorrect highlighting. Is there a simple fix for these problems? Thanks, Trevor P.S. Although the rightway.tex file highlights the environment in blue as it should, it also changes the word "is" to bold. Why does it do this?

Backpack Interface

by Brett Terpstra

http://blog.circlesixdesign.com/2006/11/19/textmate-backpack- interface-pre-release/ I've posted the initial version of the Backpack (http:// www.backpackit.com) bundle on my blog. It's got the following commands with dialogs: Create Reminder Quick Destroy Reminder Quick Edit Reminder Destroy Multiple Reminders List Reminders by Date Add as Note View/Edit Notes Change Backpack Account It has rough Keychain access support that works pretty well. It is, at this point, a demonstration of what we could do. It could be integrated in a lot of ways with a few other bundles. Right now I'm using it to quickly post reminders that will be sent to my cell phone, and client notes from documents that I'm working on. I can log in and work through a tree view of all my notes on all my pages and even edit them from the same interface. This bundle works great with the free version of Backpack. There are a couple of commands I left out. Some of the text based commands have the possibility of sending malformed dates which will break your Backpack page. 3 Backpack accounts later, I think I've got the bugs worked out, but I'm not ready to risk anyone else's pages yet. Also, a couple of gem-dependent commands... like one that uses Chronic (human readable dates - i.e. Next Tuesday at 5pm) for reminder entry. If you try this out, please let me know if you run into bugs and problems. I have not had a chance to test this on anything other than my G5 and my PPC laptop. Thanks, Brett

Subversion Bundle newbie question

by Thomas Krajacic

recently I installed the svn client from source and wanted to try out the subversion bundle in Textmate. I figured out that I need to set the path variable in TM prefs, since i use tcsh as my shell, and textmate obviously not (bash?). I already have a working copy of my project checked out, and when i change a file in TM, I tried to commit, but it always gives me an authentication error. Now my test server grants me anonymous access, so i don't have to specify any credentials, and i think Textmate is giving some username here. I couldn't find out where to change this. In CVS I had shell variables to set this, but I couldn't find any info on this on the subversion site quickly and in the help file that comes with the bundle. (maybe a TM variable in advanced prefs?) Can anyone lead me in the right direction please. Thomas Krajacic

Re: Automation Menu

by thinklist＠mac.com

Haris, Thank you for the quick response. I was looking for the "Run Command" menu that was listed, in the screencast, under the Automation menu; I seem to have found it under the Bundles -> HTML -> Insert Open Close Tag. Thanks for your help, Farhan

tm_dialog: *.plist | pl -> utf8 problem

by Hans-Joerg Bibiko

Hi, sorry if my question is a bit off topic but I couldn't find any information. I'm just writing a tiny perl script which converts non-ASCII characters coming from 'defaults read ...' to utf-8 because I want to simplify the interaction between BASH and tm_dialog. This works perfectly even with utf-16 surrogates. But then I was a bit naïve! I thought that 'pl' outputs non-ASCII characters in the same way, but it didn't. E.g. an German umlaut 'ö' stored in a xml plist format is outputted as '\U221a\U2202'!! Has someone an idea what kind of 'format' it is? I found no documentation. Or could it mean that 'pl' do not support utf-8 string at all? Thanks for any hint Hans

Automation Menu

by Farhan

Hi all, I'm new to TextMate. I was watching the screencast by Allan on HTML. I noticed his copy of TextMate has the "Automation" menu. This menu is not in my version of TextMate (v1.5.4 - 1324) and I'm running 10.4.8. I would greatly appreciate the help. Thanks, Farhan

[PATCH] perl quote-like operators

Commands with output 'Show as HTML' broken (mostly)

by Hugh Bien

Hi all, Most of the commands with output "Show as HTML' are broken for me. By most, I mean all except for RakeMate and Ruby's Documentation look up (Previews, Run commands, all Subversion commands, Textile/Markdown's documentation). I tried creating a new command - echo "hello world" - with Output: "Show as HTML" and it didn't work. What ends up happening is a blank, white window is open. I clicked on view source, and there's nothing there. I noticed this about two weeks ago, and I couldn't fix it. I've updated all my bundles and the support folder. I gave up, and deleted everything under '/Library/Application Support/TextMate', '~/Library/Application Support/TextMate' and anything related to textmate under '~/Library/Preferences'. And I did a clean re-install. But I still can't execute those commands. Has anyone ever had the same problem? I know for sure, I've got my .bash_profile set up correctly, but I'm using zsh (could that be it?). Thanks in advance, and thanks to everyone who tried to help me on IRC. - Hugh

Problem with GTDAlt r6072

by Norman Cohen

I just installed the svn update to GTDAlt (r6072) that reportedly has the fix for date handling. I opened a new GTDAlt document, made a new project, added a new context item and tried to insert a due date (either using # or via menu) and received an error about a non-existent nib file on the desktop. Looking at the code for "set date", I found this line that I think needs to be fixed: str = `#{e_sh dialog} ~/Desktop/testing.nib -mp #{e_sh plist}` I'm not sure which nib the command be looking in but hope that either Allan or Charilaos might be able to help fix this. Thanks, Norm --- Norman A. Cohen nacohen(a)mac.com "Whatever you may be sure of, be sure of this, that you are dreadfully like other people." James Russell Lowell

GTD Success

by Lawrence Goodman

Great! That fixed solved the problem. I now have ical sync! Couple of small things, nothing big to worry about: 1) When I've checked off a to do item in ical and then sync, it succeeds in syncing back with the textmate file, but I also get this error: /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/gtdalt_ical_synchronization.scpt: execution error: iCal got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4 (1) It doesn't seem to affect functionality, but I thought you might want to know about it. 2) In the instructions, it says: - shift-, (<) reduces the date by one day. - shift-. (>) increases the date by one day. - ctrl-, reduces the date by one week. - ctrl-. increases the date by one week. - ctrl-shift-, (ctrl-<) reduces the date by one month. - ctrl-shift-. (ctrl->) increases the date by one month. These commands don't seem to be working. Have they been eliminated?

Subversion Bundle newbie question 2

by Thomas Krajacic

one more question arose: when i just use the SVN_EDITOR shell variable in tcsh and then do a commit from the commandline, TM opens and I can enter the commit message. However, when I save the file, the terminal tells me that the message has not been changed and gives me the option to abort, continue and edit again. Isn't TM supposed to deliver the message to the svn client correctly after saving the opened message log file? thanks again for helping Thomas Krajacic

tm_dialog quandry (returning array selections)

by Brett Terpstra

Okay, let's say I've got an NSScrollView tied to an arrayController. Heck, let's say I've got a few tied into eachother to create a tree. The plist passes nested arrays to allow a user to, say, pick a Backpack page->note->edit the note and return to TM where the script takes the updated note and returns it to Backpack. I've got the first half all finished, but the plist that comes back to TM just contains the whole array including the edited note and there's no easy way to tell what's changed. How do I pass back the id's of the selected page/note and the note body separately or marked as modified? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brett

select to copy and middle-button paste?

by William Scott

One of the nice features of iTerm and Aqua-Emacs is that selecting text copies into the paste-buffer, and clicking the middle mouse button pastes in text from the buffer, as with X11 programs. (That, and focus-follows-mouse are the two features I miss most from other unix operating systems). Is there a way to do this in TextMate, and if not, is there any chance it might one day be implemented as an optional feature? Bill

Figured Out GTDalt Problems, But Now ...

by Lawrence Goodman

So I figured out what was wrong with my GTDalt installation: 1) I had the GTD file with a suffix of .txt instead of .gtd. I suppose I should have figured this out, but I don't remember reading it in any of the instructions. 2) I had to upgrade the dialog plugin. As a newbie, I typically rely on Get Bundle to fetch my packets, but with a plug-in you need to do it through Subversion and the command line. I also needed to create a folder in Application Support/Textmate called "PlugIns." Now everything words as it should except: Ical sync continues to create calendars, but not add to do items. I get this error msg: /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/gtdalt_ical_synchronization.scpt: execution error: /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/get_lists.rb:5:in `require': No such file to load -- ../lib/GTD.rb (LoadError) from /Users/lawrencegoodman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/GTDAlt.tmbundle/Support/bin/get_lists.rb:5 (1) Anyone know what this means?

LaTeX / Bibliography Completion and Label From Document problem

by Özgür Gökmen

Strange behaviour of Bibliography Completion and Label From Document commands accessed through option-esc. Description of the problem, and workaround based on my correspondence with Charilaos (Harris) Skiadas are below for archival purpose. Thanks Harris! -- Working system PowerPC G4, Mac OS X Version 10.4.8, TexMate Version 1.5.4 (1324), TexLive Full Installation (2006/11/07) [Tex (based upon TeX Live)] / MacTeX (10 November 2006) -- Description of the problem option-esc results in: \footcite{sh: line 1: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.6.1/ kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file sh: line 1: /usr/local/teTeX/ bin/i386-apple-darwin8.6.1/kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file cite_key} \ref{sh: line 1: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.8.1/ kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file sec:section_name} \ref{sh: line 1: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.8.1/ kpsewhich: cannot execute binary file fig:label_name} TeXLive and MacTeX installations modify /etc/profile, and set the path as: PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current", which is actually an alias for /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple- darwin7.9.0/. The scripts of both commands use first `which kpsewhich`, and only if that fails, `locate kpsewhich` to find out where kpsewhich lives. Running the which kpsewhich command in the terminal returns: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/kpsewhich Running the locate kpsewhich command in the terminal returns: /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/i386-apple-darwin8.8.1/kpsewhich /usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/kpsewhich /usr/local/TeXLive/man/man1/kpsewhich.1 /usr/local/TeXLive/texmf.texlive/doc/man/man1/kpsewhich.1 The `which kpsewhich' command in both scripts fails -- according to my humble opinion, due to the fact that what is finds is not the actual file but an alias. Then `locate kpsewhich` points to the first kpsewhich it finds on the system, which is an intel binary. Thus it declares "[...] cannot execute binary file". (If you have the Basic Installation of TeXLive, which does not come with intel binaries, it will declare "[...] cannot find binary file".) -- Workaround Bibliograpyh Completion, and Label From Document commands are based on the following scripts: LatexCitekeys.rb, and LatexLabelCompletions.rb. Both of them live in /Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin. Edit both scripts, replacing the following loop -- lines 51-55, and 11-15, respectively: if `which kpsewhich`.match(/^no kpsewhich/) then kpsewhich = `locate kpsewhich`.split("\n").grep(/kpsewhich$/)[0] else kpsewhich = "kpsewhich" end with a statement indicating the correct path to the powerpc kpsewhich binary. kpsewhich = "/usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/ kpsewhich" or kpsewhich = "/usr/local/TeXLive/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/kpsewhich" should both work. Check your /etc/profile or better run "echo $PATH" in the terminal to confirm your path. -- Özgür Gökmen | og(a)pyromedia.org

silly question about the zoom button

by Jay Soffian

TextMate's zoom button (the green jewel in the title bar) maximizes windows to the full screen. Great on my 12" PowerBook. Highly annoying on my 24" iMac. I'd rather it maximize vertically only. This behavior seems to vary across OS X applications (Safari only maximizes vertically e.g.). Any chance there is a hidden preference? Thanks, j.
