- TextMate - lists.macromates.com

by Brett Terpstra

I'm a little hesitant to put this out there because I'm not sure if it's a silly idea or not. I asked a little while back about interactive template creation. I created a portfolio website that, when the entries are created correctly, automatically generates client lists, recent project lists, portfolio pages, etc. I just needed a way to enter the data and have it format a blog entry. What I ended up doing with it was using tm_dialog to create a form and then process that in a template command that outputs to a new blog.html file. It's very specific to my needs, so I'm obviously not sending that to the list. However, the process seemed relatively new, so I thought I'd share it, just in case. The template will take any key-value pairs fed to it by the nib and substitute them for the :::key::: in the template file. You can build as complex a nib as you like, and do whatever you want with the keys in the template file. It's all done in ruby. It just includes a Mad Lib and is basically a proof of concept, but I think it has applications ranging from composing emails to blog entries and anything that could be sped up by inputting values into a template interactively.

find/replace in column selection

by Leo Brewin

Hi Folks, I've just started using TextMate and I'm very very impressed. I've noticed the following behaviour and I wonder if anybody could let me know if this is a "feature" or a bug. I make a column selection and I replace "foo" with "foobar". This increases the width of the column selection. Here is the problem -- any continuous text that passed through the column will now be broken and expanded with spaces. This is not what I would expect and it will seriously limit my use of find/replace in column selections. Is this a bug? Or is it an operator error? Thanks, Leo

RE : running Octave scripts

I sort of prefer a list that follows my typing than a keyword though (I think it's a bad habit to type "document" and then let TM wrap it in a \begin{}\end{} environment. If you ever have to switch to another editor for some reason, it's gonna be a pain.) Have you had a chance to try Kile? I found its autocompletion a dream. I quite like the "ESC" way, though this key is quite far on my keyboard. Is there a way to change the mapping for the "TAB" which i never use for instance? thanks again, baptiste ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

run Octave code

by baptiste auguie

Hello, I've run successfully some Octave code with Textmate, using the following syntax, #! /sw/bin/octave -f my code here i just select the whole text, and run "Execute line inserting result". It used to work well, but for some reason it now displays an error message when I try to use some data files in the Octave code. Example: #! /sw/bin/octave -f load("datafile.dat"); ... displays an error, error: load: unable to open input file `datafile.dat'. Running the same script in the Terminal works fine, so the problem is really when running the script in Octave. A simpler self containing script works fine (not loading a file). It's probably something to do with path directory, but I don't know why it used to work and doesn't anymore (possibly some update of TM in the meantime, and I also registered and added a few bundles). Any tips? thanks, baptiste ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

LaTeX autocompletion

by baptiste auguie

Hi, I've just purchased TextMate, and I have a few questions: 1 - when editing LaTeX code, I'd love to get a similar autocompletion feature as Kile for Linux (when you type \be, you get a list of possiblities that follows your typing (\begin{abstract},...)). It's *very* convenient and clever: it gives you the latex commands as well as words already present in the document, and narrows the list according to your typing. I found some posts about a latex autocompletion bundle/macro for TM, but I can't have it to work (I'm not sure what it does exactly anyway!). I get a huge list, from which I can't seem to choose before it disappears and leaves me with a blank document ! 2 - Is it possible to always have tab editing available, not only in projects? Or is there a way to open TextMate with an empty project by default (where you just drag and drop the files you want to use)? 3 - I run some Octave scripts from TextMate, using the Matlab mode, but I have to put something like #! /sw/bin/octave -f and run the script using the shell command with all the text selected. How can I add this compilation feature to the Matlab bundle (giving the path to Octave, and not having to select the text before running it)? Thanks, best regards, baptiste ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

[ANN] Ruby Experimental + Updated Brilliance Black

by thomas Aylott

Howdy. There is a new syntax grammar in the Experimental bundle. It scopes a bunch of things that I think the main Ruby syntax should be scoping. Since so many people use Ruby, I don't want to make any major changes to it without getting some serious feedback. It could be that some of this stuff should be kept separate in a wrapper grammar for ruby, i don't know. If you are interested in Ruby and the Ruby parsing and coloring that TextMate does, please check out this new language and give us all your feedback. Also, I updated the Brilliance Black theme (in the official textmate svn repo) to support all this new stuff. If you're checking out the new stuff, this theme will show it in all it's glory.

Templates

by Brett Terpstra

I had my first go at creating a template last night. It was fairly miserable. Even just using what TextMate creates automatically resulted in a "dead" template that does nothing upon hitting test or the assigned key combination. I copied an existing template and made modifications to no avail. Is there a tutorial that goes beyond the docs or is there something I'm missing?

Re: [TxMt] Another Editor War Sparked by TextMate

by Dave Winzler

James Edward Gray II wrote: > I literally miss one feature of BBEdit: multi-file search... > However, I see no point in complaining about this since I can add a > bundle for it at any time. Oh, I so wish you would do that, James; is now "any time"? ;) Seriously tho, lately I've been using grep to do multifile searches since it's too much effort within TextMate, and it's not worth firing up BBEdit for. I usually have one or two files open rather than a project, and usually my multi-file searches are within a folder associated with another project completely. I only need to do this a couple times a week so it's not too annoying, but it would be nice if I could search a given directory like BBEdit. Things keeping me from loving TextMate even more than I already do: - better multifile searches - side-by-side diff (love BBEdit!) - better handling of very large files - split views - chunked undo And to be fair, just a few of the things I love about TextMate: - editing is fun - amazing syntax hilighting for all the languages I work with and many more as well - snippets - it's really smart - incredible support (see thanks below) - bundles beyond count - creating my own snippets, commands and macros EASILY! - it's constantly being updated (program and snippets both) - the screencasts Many thanks to Allan and the many people creating and maintaining bundles, you really have created the best text editor out there (IMHO). - Dave Winzler

Searching in TextMate?

by Jim Plush

Perhaps it doesn't exist or I don't know how but is it possible to search in a specific directory? I know you can search through a whole project. My project is huge and the searches take forever eventhough I usually know which directory I want to search in anyway. I wind up having to fire up another editor to search. Any ideas? thanks

Find All in Document bug

by William Uther

Hi, I was trying out Hypersearch and I noticed that there was similar functionality in TextMate already. I then tried that and found a bug. If you 'Find All in Document' - shift-control-f - and the document hasn't been saved yet, then you get a weird error: /tmp/temp_textmate.aZZ02d:4:in `url_esc': private method `gsub' called for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /tmp/ temp_textmate.aZZ02d:25 from /tmp/temp_textmate.aZZ02d:22:in `each_line' from /tmp/temp_textmate.aZZ02d:22 'Find All in Document' is part of the TextMate bundle, so I guess I could fix this myself, but I don't use it enough. I was just playing. Have a nice day, Will :-}

Perl Indentation Problems/Register Buffers

by Rusty Conover

Hi Textmate Guys, I'm trying out textmate using version 1.5.4 and I checked out bundle revision 6074 from SVN this afternoon. It appears the perl bundle has a few problems with indenting. Specifically with nested hashes and closing curly braces. Typing this code is fine (the auto-indenting works great): my $b = { a => { test => 1 }, b => { test_me => 2 } }; But if you were to re-indent that section you wind up with: my $b = { a => { test => 1 }, b => { test_me => 2 } }; Obviously this causes lots of problems for code read ability. Secondarily, if you have a statement like: my ($brand_name, $product_name) = $self->{feed_db}->selectrow_array ("select brand, name from products where sku = ? limit 1", undef, $results->{unique_product_id}); And reindent it changes to: my ($brand_name, $product_name) = $self->{feed_db}->selectrow_array ("select brand, name from products where sku = ? limit 1", undef, $results->{unique_product_id}); Is there a way to indent the parameters to keep alignment with the first parameter, this helps for really long statements that take multiple lines. It also appears to have problems with if statements like: if($bar) { if($car) { $baz; } else { $car; } } After re-indent that becomes: if($bar) { if($car) { $baz; } else { $car; } } It would appear this is a general problem with a closing curly brace as even, foo(bar => { a => 1, }, car => { test => 3 }) Becomes: foo(bar => { a => 1, }, car => { test => 3 }) Secondarily: Is it possible to have a preference so that: foo(bar => { a => 1, }) When indented becomes: foo(bar => { a => 1, }) Lastly a more general Textmate question coming from XEmacs. I didn't see any support for register buffers. Would there be a way to add them? As for what a register buffer does is that it allows you to copy to a named "register" (commonly you pick a letter), and then you can insert a register by just entering that same letter that you copied the contents to. You can see the docs from XEmacs about this here: http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/21.5/html/xemacs_13.html#SEC102 This would require support for reading input from the user once they hit the appropriate key binding. Thanks, Rusty

bookmarks/history bundle idea

by Jay Soffian

I have a half-baked idea for a bundle and I wanted to solicit feedback in an attempt to more fully bake it. When coding I commonly find myself jumping around not only within a file but often between files. Typically to do this I'm either using the CTags bundle or cmd-E, cmd-shift-F, click in the find window, look at something, then try to figure out where I was. I find myself expending way too much mental effort trying to remember where I am at any point in time. My idea is for a module which allows you to set global bookmarks per project along with history as you follow the bookmarks. The bookmarks would be persisted via a file in the project root called .tmbookmarks or some such. The bundle would have these actions: - add bookmark (also places bookmark on top of history) - show bookmarks - delete bookmark (presents list of bookmarks, select to delete one or more) - clear bookmarks (deletes all bookmarks) - show history - go back (returns to most recently added/followed bookmark) - go forward - clear history The bookmarks/history would be presented either via tmdialog or simply as an HTML window (similar to CTags's navigation window). The forward/back would be a browser-type history that is populated as you click thru your bookmarks. I'd like to tie the history into the CTags bundle as well. So for example, you could do something like: - add bookmark (this would add the current file/line) - cmd-e, cmd-shift-f, click to new file. - go back (this would save the current file/line then jump back to the just added bookmark) I have to think a bit more about how the bookmarks/history will interact. It might be better to have the history work more like a shell's pushd/popd actions. Also, obviously as you edit a file your bookmarks end up pointing to the wrong line. However, I have this crazy idea that I can save two or three lines of context with each bookmark (a la diff) so that when following a bookmark I can validate it and resync automatically (a la patch). Thoughts? j.

Yup, that's pretty much what I'm looking for too. I ended up hacking together some of the commands from the Diff bundle to get an opendiff equivalent of "Diff Document With Arbitrary File...", but it only works with the saved version of the current document which limits its usefulness (can't compare unsaved changes, can't compare new unsaved documents for instance). Still, in case anybody else finds it useful: (Save: Nothing) (Input: Entire Document) (Output: Discard) require_cmd opendiff "Opendiff comes with Apple's developer tools." # set utf-8 as the default encoding (used by opendiff) export __CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING=$UID:0x8000100:0x8000100 path=$(osascript<<END tell application "TextMate" set theFile to choose file set the result to POSIX path of theFile end tell END) opendiff "$path" "$TM_FILEPATH"

Question to Tools (Dialog/tm_dialog)

by Simon Ruderich

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi, yesterday I tried to use the new feature "New Project" from the "Xcode"-bundle. I got an error that "tm_dialog" can't use the option - d, it didn't work. So I checked out the hole "Bundle", "PlugIns", "Support" and "Tools" directories from the subversion repository to ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/ and tried it again, but it didn't work also. Then I opened the "Dialog Plugin" from "Tools" in Xcode, compiled the Dialog.tmplugin, put it in "PlugIns" and tried it again - it didn't worked. Later I realized I had to compile "tm_dialog.mm" in the same project and put it in "Support/bin" and also put the before compiled "Dialog.tmplugin" in "PlugIns". This works finally. Now I'm asking myself if I did anything wrong or missed anything or is this the usual way to get new tools to work? I think it would be easier to put an compiled updated version of the files to "PlugIns" or "Support/bin" in the subversion repository if the source file gets updated so an svn update would get all user data up to date. It would also be nice if there could be a new target in the Xcode- project which builds tm_dialog so this gets done automatically; I did this in the terminal. Thanks for all the info I missed, Simon -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFFVKYFYRX4BO+zMikRCl2wAJ4pzM63D0d2PNIrAJSkMYUGyY2W7QCfexI/ H0rtEix8UvebyHzkrgg8f28= =UzNJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

folding marker questions/suggestions

by Jay Soffian

Allan, I'm looking at improving the folding support in the Python bundle. One thing that would help would be if the stop marker regex could reference a capture made in the start marker regex. That way I could capture the indent that was in effect when the start marker matched. The other thing that would help (I think) would be a way to explicitly reset the nesting level. Also, is there a way to view what the nesting level is? Something like TM_FOLD_LEVEL seems like it might be useful. Thoughts? j.

erasing block within tags

by James Fishwick

I'm trying to write a snippet that will erase *everything within inclosing tags and *everything with enclosing tags including the tags themselves. So far I've got `perl -e 's/<\${TM_SELECTED_TEXT}>(\n|.)+?/<\/$ {TM_SELECTED_TEXT}>//g'`, input is document, output is new document where the user has the word inside a tag selected. This isn't working... and it would be better if the user could select the whole ending or beginning tag rather than just the word. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Making TextMate recognize a new kind of urls

by Alan Schmitt

Hello, I'm a complete newbie concerning TextMate customization, but there is something I'd like to do that I would find very useful which I don't know how to tackle. The latest beta of MailTags allows one to create urls pointing to Mail messages in a very robust way: the url works across several macs synchronized to the same imap account and when the message is moved or tagged. I'm now using these urls to refer to emails in my GTDAlt file. How would one proceed to add a command that opens such a message (in Mail) when called on a url. The way I proceed now is select and copy the url (which looks like message://454F0376.2010005@ens-lyon.fr), and type "open " and paste the url in a terminal, which opens it. I found one improvement, which is adding "open " before the url in TextMate, selecting it, and calling ^R. What I would like is a way, when the cursor is inside the url, to call a command that opens it, but I don't know how to do it. Thank you for any suggestion, Alan -- Alan Schmitt <http://alan.petitepomme.net/> The hacker: someone who figured things out and made something cool happen. .O. ..O OOO

Synchronization (FTP, etc maybe?) Bundle

by Stephen Hansen

Soo. I started doing some work on my website in TextMate, and wanted to get the changes regularly/easily up; the Transmit bundle that shipped w/ TextMate was okay, buut, didn't quite do what I wanted or in a _way_ that I wanted.. I didn't see another option so went and made one.. :) Posting here in case it suits anyone elses needs better then the current offering. Basically, its purpose is to sync your current project (and it has to be a project) with a remote site. You start out by selecting "Synchronization->Configure Sync" and in the file that pops up enter the host, username, path and method (only 'Transmit' is supported right now). These settings can be accessed through that command in the future; they're stored in a file called ".~sync.sh" in the root of your project so are persistant across your project. Then, you hit Command+F12, and it grabs your password from your Keychain (the first time it sets it), then uses AppleScript to tell Transmit to connect, sync the files, and then close. The "Method" actually is used to determine which AppleScript file to run to actually tell Transmit/whatever to DO things. There's a lame attempt at a Cyberduck one in there, but since I'm happy w/ Transmit I never made it work :) --Stephen

TextMate bookmark and MacBookPro keyboard weirdness

by Giulio Cesare Solaroli

Hi all, I don't know if this is already a faq, but as I have struggled with this issue for quite a long time, I care to share my "discovery": when I want to set a bookmark with the Command-F2 shortcut, I need to press the Command key first, the 'fn' key second (otherwise the F2 key increase the brightness of the screen instead of passing the value to the application), and F2 last. If I press the 'fn' key first and the 'Command' key second, the bookmark is not set. Best regards, Giulio Cesare

^{ command not working on swedish keyboard

by Håkan Waara

Hi all, The New note keyboard shortcut "^ {" in the GDTAlt bundle, does not work on a swedish keyboard. I press ctrl-alt-shift-8 for this, where alt-shift-8 stands for {. The end result is just a '8' written out. /Håkan

PHPDoc Display like TODO list?

by Karl Katzke

Disclaimer: I've got no knowledge of how to code bundles. I can simply copy the wonderful work done by other people. That being said -- before I start hacking, has anyone created a PHPDoc Parser Bundle that would allow me to see up-to-date documentation of my PHP codebase in TextMate, similar to the way the TODO List bundle allows me to see where I've marked Todos? I love TextMate as it's much easier for me to work with projects in TextMate's formatting, but I miss using something like Zend that'll parse phpdoc formatted comments on the fly.

a request on GTDalt bundle: flexible input

by Piero D'Ancona

The bundle is very nice, lightweight and fast. Excellent. One thing I do not like is: for me it is very convenient to use text files containing a lot of stuff besides the projects: e.g., additional information, a list of the steps already taken, telephone numbers, how-to reminders, etc etc. This is extremely handy. When I open the file concerning a certain group of related projects, all the info I need is already there and makes it faster to write the details of projects or do the actions. Now the problem with GTDalt is that any extraneous line gives an error. Wouldn't it be nicer if anything which is not contained in a project...end pair would simply be ignored, so that the file could be used in a more flexible way? This should not be too difficult to do if I understand scopes (unless it's a feature...) Thanks, Piero

false changed warning

by Matt Neuburg

If I change one character in an open, previously saved TM document, switch away from TM to the Finder, and then switch back to TM, I get this warning: "The file for the document at ~/Desktop/yourfile.rb has been modified by another application. There are also unsaved changes in TextMate. Do you want to keep the TextMate version or revert to the version on disk?" This warning is well-intentioned but (under these circumstances) false. m. -- matt neuburg, phd = matt(a)tidbits.com, <http://www.tidbits.com/matt/> A fool + a tool + an autorelease pool = cool!

Subversion bundle messes up Eclipse/Subclipse/Subversive

by J. B. Rainsberger

Hello, folks. I Googled for about 20 minutes and seemed to find nothing. Here is my problem. 1. I check out a project in Eclipse using Subclipse. 2. I work on the project in Textmate. 3. In Textmate, I add a file to version control, queueing it to be committed. At this point when I flip back to Eclipse, the Subclipse plugin thinks the entire directory containing the new file is not under version control. If I try to update or check in with Subclipse, that directory is messed up. It's as though Subclipse doesn't think the directory is a working copy, even though the .svn directory is still there and the entries file is still there. I haven't done a before-and-after diff yet, so I don't know what happened. I'm too tired to do that now. :) Any advice? What's up? Help! Thanks. -- J. B.

List of current active key equivalents ?

by Nicolas Schmidt

Hi, I just wondered if there is a way to quickly see which keys are bound by key equivalents in the current scope. The reason is that I wanted to assign a key equivalent to a custom macro, but all the key shortcuts I came up with were already assigned in "text.tex.latex". So if you know a better solution than trial-and-error, I'd be happy to hear it. Nicolas Schmidt

GTDalt and iCal sync

by Mark Smith

I'm happily using the GTDalt bundle. Nearly everything is working perfectly. I'm seeing one strange issue: When I run synchronize with iCal, I get a calendar per context in iCal as Haris describes, but for all contexts, no actions are exported. There are no errors reported and the bundle works flawlessly otherwise. I haven't seen this particular issue come up here and its not mentioned on Haris' page: <http://skiadas.dcostanet.net/afterthought/2006/07/17/gtdalt-and-ical/> Any ideas ? [Newest Bundle (AFAIAW); Textmate v.1292; iCal v.1058] wtia, mark.

Re: textmate Digest, Vol 26, Issue 76

by hcabbos

Things I'd like to see eliminated. 1) Don't want blank line inserted after Doctype. 2) Don't want to credit Tidy as generator. 3) Don't want blank line inserted after closing head (</head>). 4) Don't want blank line inserted after html comment. 5) Don't want blank line inserted after closing h1 and paragraph tag. 6) Why is it wrapping the CSS found before the closing head tag with: /*<![CDATA[*/ /*]]>*/ I don't have a problem with the way it indents, just the above concerns. Besides not doing the stuff mentioned above, Dreamweaver's Source Formatting command: 1) Eliminates all blank line feeds. 2) Does not place content within <p></p> in a separate indented line. It keeps everything compact like so: <p>My content here.</p> 3) *Does* place the content within <div></div> on a separate line indented like so: <div> <p>Content here</p> </div> Yep, maybe a GUI dialog would help but for the masses migrating from Dreamweaver, maybe providing a default Dreamweaver-like setting that addresses the above would suffice. What's crazy is that as great as BBEdit and other editors are, I know a lot of people that keep Dreamweaver around just for source formatting. ---------- Forwarded message ----------From: Jacob Rus <jrus(a)hcs.harvard.edu > > To: textmate(a)lists.macromates.com > Date: Wed, 08 Nov 2006 22:47:08 -0500 > Subject: [TxMt] Re: Newbie Customization of Tidy > hcabbos wrote: > > Can anyone point me to instructions on how to modify HTML Tidy's > formatting > > of documents.

Newbie Customization of Tidy

by hcabbos

Can anyone point me to instructions on how to modify HTML Tidy's formatting of documents. There's a bunch of stuff that happens that I don't care for...stuff that running HTML Tidy in BBEdit doesn't do. I'd love Dreamweaver's method of formatting within TextMate--at least for HTML files. What's nice about BBEdit is that it allows you to point to Dreamweaver's SourceProfile.txt file as a custom profile for source formatting.

some suggestions for the Python bundle

by Brett Cannon

I recently did a post to my programming blog discussing my 30 day experience with TextMate (http://sayspy.blogspot.com/2006/11/my-month-with-textmate.html ) where I said I liked the app but there just was not quite enough to tear me away from Vim at the moment (but who knows since I just started using Vim again and I am already missing the pretty GUI of TextMate =). I had some personal gripes about the Python bundle in the post and Jacob Rus suggested that I email the list with those issues so that they could possibly be addressed by someone with bundle commit privileges. I think the biggest universal issue I have is the lack of docsting support in the various snippets. Both the function and method snippets leave out docstring tab stops which is really unfortunate as Python best practices practically dictate a docstring for *every* function or method (see http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/ for the official style guide for Python). The class definition does have a docstring, but following docstring conventions from PEP 257 ( http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/) which is referenced by PEP 8 there should be a blank line between the class definition line and the docstring for the class but that would mess up the code folding so I can look past that. But that leads to the problem of code folding not working with Python when there any blank lines within a block. Jacob said that this should be addressed in TM 2 by making it easier to define whitespace-delimited grammars which is great to hear. The last big issue is the assumption that files containing unit tests end in 'Test.py'. In Python's unit test suite all files use the *prefix* of 'test_' to signify something is a test. This has the nice perk of not requiring all test files to end in '.py' since you can directly execute files with other extensions. Anyway those were my biggest issues. I know most of these are minimal since editing them directly myself is simple enough, but it would be nice if they were part of the default bundle so I can get any other improvements made to the svn repository for those things instead of having them ignored because I have a local edit. Keep up the good work. As I said, I think TextMate is a good app, just not exactly for me (at the moment). -Brett

"Edit in TextMate" eating spaces

by Rob McBroom

This isn't a huge deal, but since it seems to have persisted through a few TextMate releases and I didn't see it mentioned previously on the list or in any tickets, I thought I'd ask about it. Does anyone else end up with words merged together here and there when the text is taken from an application into TextMate? For example, if I try it on this message, the words "previously on" in the first sentence get changed to "previouslyon". I looked at the Input Manager and it seems to be a symlink into TextMate.app, so it doesn't look like I'm using an old version or anything. (I'm running 1324.) I primarily use ^⌘E from within Mail. I don't know if this would happen with other apps or if it's Mail specific. I don't recall the text ever getting messed up on the return trip to the calling app (when I save in TextMate), but I can't say for certain that it doesn't happen that way, too. Rob

Adding reload cmd to webkit output?

1.5.4 (1324) killed my Subversion Bundle?

by Adre

After automatically upgrading to 1324 at the weekend I've been having problems with some functions in the Subversion bundle. If I try a commit I get a popup window saying: /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/erb_streaming.rb:1:in `require': No such file to load -- erb (LoadError) from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/erb_streaming.rb:1 from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Subversion.tmbundle/Support/svn_commit.rb:13: in `require' from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Subversion.tmbundle/Support/svn_commit.rb:13 I get a similar message for status checks, but updating to HEAD is fine... I have no idea what this means or why it hates me, but I can't help wondering if it's because I'm running OS X Panther. As I understand it, TM itself is Panther compatible, but some bundles aren't. Could it be that a bundle update caused this? If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears. Thanks.

LaTeX Itemize command

by Steve Lianoglou

Hi, It looks like there might be a small bug in the ctrl-shift-L "Itemize Lines in Selection" command. I highlight text that looks like so: --- It could be the case that there exists an $h_i \in H_s$ that is a subset of $h_j \in H_s$. In this case, we can think of the combination $h_i,h_j$ as a new concept class $h^\prime$ which ... Alternatively, $h_i,h_j$ could be in the situation depicted in \ref {fig:1b}. In this case, the VC dimension of $h_i \cup h_j$ is at least ... --- When I highlight and ctrl-shif-L to "Itemize Lines in Selection", it hoses the second line. I guess it's finding the ":" in my \ref{fig: 1b} and thinking that I'm trying to make some kind of definition list? Anyway, the result is this: ---- \begin{itemize} \item It could be the case that there exists an $h_i \in H_s$ that is a subset of $h_j \in H_s$. In this case, we can think of the combination $h_i,h_j$ as a new concept class $h^\prime$ which ... \item [ Alternatively, $h_i,h_j$ could be in the situation depicted in \ref{fig ] 1b}. In this case, the VC dimension of $h_i \cup h_j$ is at least ... \end{itemize} ---- I've just re-svn-up'd my bundles and the issue is still there, so I just thought I should bring it up. If my LaTeX is improperly formed as well, please let me know as I'm no LaTeX guru ... :-) Thanks, -steve

Re: [TxMt] Sweave bundle problems following sweave bundle update

by Alan Schussman

(Re-sent to the list after replying solely to Haris the first time.) On Nov 7, 2006, at 8:20 AM, Charilaos Skiadas wrote: > I think I might have forgotten to tell Alan about the most recent > updates I've done. Here is a temporary location for the most recent > bundle. Alan, perhaps you could update the bundle on your website? > Done, thanks for the updates, Haris. The archive on my site[1] is your current bundle now, and it should do the trick for Danstan. Thinking broadly about the bundle and how I'm using sweave, it seems to me that sweave ought to work for at least a few different circumstances: 1. single .snw file sweave => typeset 2. sweave project (typeset optional; I use the sweave project to prepare data for subsequent work, and frequently do not typeset at this point.) 3. sweave current file => typeset (not really functionally different than no. 1, just switched on the basis of TM_LATEX_MASTER, probably) My current workflow is to begin with no. 2, and then work with the R console to test code that I subsequently plug into a single sweave file. When I'm ready, I sweave and typeset that single file (which lets me avoid re-sweaving the whole big project each time I want to fiddle with a table, for instance). The trick for the bundle seems to me to be enabling smooth selection of a) master sweave, b) per-file sweave, and c) typeset, with as few overlapping key commands as possible. Anyway, I'll be eager to really work on this as soon as I finish this little project I'm working on. Cheers- -Alan [1] http://textbench.com/tm/SWeave.zip
