- TextMate - lists.macromates.com

by Andreas Wahlin

I was trying to install the footnote plugin from syncPeople on Rails, and nothing happened. Then I fiddled around a bit and detected that Show Scope didn't work either. So I thought maybe there was a problem with the path $TM_xxx variables (those are paths, mainly, right?). So using appZapper I did a complete reinstall and I think I've put everything in the standard place but still no luck, neither plugin install nor showing of scope works. Any help? I have all bundles activated and I've also activated the macros using the automation menu so as to avoid any keyboard mistypings. Andreas

Nested snippet problem

by Andy Herbert

I've been experiencing a problem in the otherwise excellent Textmate, it's related to tab-completing a snippet within a tab completed snippet, here's a simple example to illustrate my problem: I have created a new text.html document and typed mailto<tab> to get the mailto snippet, now in the href value I am attempting to insert another snippet I've created which is a shortcut for my email address, unfortunately it assumes the shortcut is the value for href, then moves to the subject value. I can understand why Textmate works this way, after all, why would you want to insert a snippet in to a field which expects a literal value, but ideally I would expect it to tab-complete the email address, then another tab to move to the subject field.

Default bundles?

by Sean Schertell

Hi guys, I seem to have somehow hosed my bundles or commands or something. Lot's of things don't work such as CMD+/ for comments or CMD+RETURN for end of line then return, etc. Is there anyway I can get fresh default bundles? Or is there something else I can do to fix these things? Sean :::: DataFly.Net :::: Complete Web Services http://www.datafly.net

Wrap to Page / 80 Columns

by William Bumgarner

Combining themes

by William Bumgarner

I'm just now playing with TextMate for the first time and, of course, had to futz with themes a bit to get to my preferred light-on-dark kinda coding environment.... Question: How do you tell what scope is under the cursor? I found that I really liked Vibrant Ink, but it lacked scope definitions for Objective-C and some of the other modes I end up dealing with. However, the built in Espresso Libre did a pretty good job otherwise. Since copy/paste didn't work in the Prefs pane (Feature! Feature!), I ended up copying the various random settings elements from one plist to the other. Being too lazy to actually sort out the dupes, I wrote a wee bit of python (you'll need PyObjC) that rips through the resulting plist and eliminates duplicate settings (names only). http://svn.red-bean.com/bbum/trunk/hacques/TextMate/ It is dumb. It should normalize by scope. I should fix that. Actually, it really is broken -- it really should normalize by scope. Ah, well.. it'll limp along enough for now. b.bum

too much space in pasting?

by Kearney Buskirk

Hi Folks Let me begin by making clear that I'm not a programmer - I'm trying out TextMate in HTML production, which may or may not be advisable. I have been using TextWrangler for this purpose. The problem I'm having is too much space is being inserted before and after what is actually being copied and pasted, like at least a couple of words length on each end. And that's making messy code. I'm copying out of Dreamweaver and pasting into TextMate. TextWrangler doesn't make this mistake. What am I not understanding? I would prefer to use TextMate - text and code are easier to read and the overall design of this app looks quite advanced to me. I might use it for ActionScript in the future but I probably won't be using 90% of the features. This app is not very accessible to non-programmers. Maybe that's how you prefer it. Some beginning and mid-level tutorials and/or movies would help a lot. The manual is more like a reference book, rather than showing it in application. Just to say you might get better adoption of this beautiful app with better teaching of it. Kearney Buskirk

Restore Function Pop-up while retaining other settings

by Egil Helland

I am a recent convert to TextMate, but for some reason (probably me fooling around in the app) I no longer get any content to show up in the Function/Symbol field down to the right in the editor for my PHP and HTML files. Now I just want to restore the default settings for such files - is this possible while still retaining my other settings? If so, could someone point me in the right direction?

Using TM to View Source in Safari

by Raymond Brigleb

My apologies if this has been asked before but I hadn't seen it... Is there a way to use TextMate to View Source in Safari (or any browser for that matter)? Gosh would this be handy, I have a safari plugin that at least shows the source in color, but of course, anything I can do in TextMate is better!

TextMate and network filesystem performance

by Geraint North

Hi, I saw some old posts on the mailing list regarding the pause (several seconds) that the user experiences when switching back to TextMate from some other application when a project contains files mounted over NFS. An fs_usage confirms that it probably is the 1000's of fstat() calls that TextMate does when activated that is causing the pause. Is this due to be fixed anytime soon, and in the meantime, has anyone found any workarounds for it? Thanks, Geraint.

little-endian, ruby, and run script

by Albert Vernon Smith

I am writing a script to parse a binary file in ruby. According to the documentation on the file format, the integers are in little- endian format. When I take the script, read the appropriate part of the file, then 'unpack' with 'V' (little-endian), I don't get the right answer from the internal "Run script" command. I do get the right answer if I change to unpack with 'N'. However, if run from the command line against Apple Ruby (/usr/bin/ruby 1.8.2) or against Ruby compiled with DarwinPorts (/opt/local/bin/ruby 1.8.4), I get the appropriate result with 'V' (as I should). This seems to be a bug to me, though I'm not sure I'm missing something here. Can someone either confirm this is a bug, or alternatively explain to me why things are behaving in this way. -albert

Automated links for Markdown

by Dr. Drang

I now have two macros that automate the creation of [reference-style links][1] for Markdown documents. The first is used while you're typing and you come to a spot where you want to add a link. It's documented [here][2] and [here][3]. The second is used when you want to select some text already in the document and turn it into a link. It's documented [here][4]. Thanks to the members of the list who gave me pointers. [1]: they look like this, but with a URL here [2]: http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2006/02/textmate_and_links_again.html [3]: http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2006/03/new_and_improved_textmate_and.html [4]: http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2006/03/markdown_links_in_textmate_the.html -- Dr. Drang

Getting to end of selection in macro

by Dr. Drang

I am working on an macro in which the selected text will be filtered through one command and then all the text after the selection will be filtered through another command. After the first command is finished, the transformed text is selected, and I need to deselect it and put the caret immediately after it. I had thought that hitting the right arrow key would do the trick, but found out [that doesn't always work][1]. Is there a foolproof way of getting the caret to land right after the selection? And while I'm asking questions, two more: 1. Is there a way for a command to call a macro? 2. Can a macro be made to behave differently depending on whether text is selected or not?

TextMate and TeXniscope - Fails opening pdf

Hello, Yesterday I decided to give TeXniscope a try after watching the screencasts from Haris (btw, great screencasts!) I have a problem making TextMate using TeXniscope though. I have set the TM_LATEX_VIEWER variable to TeXniscope, and in TeXniscope I have set the editor command path to /usr/local/bin/mate and the editor arguments to %file -l %line. When I typeset the document, TeXniscope doesn't open at all and the log window shows this message: ****************************************** Compiling LaTeX...

ANN: Keyref - A TextMate shortcut key reference PDF generator

by Chris McGrath

Hi all, I'd like to announce Keyref, a little app for turning TextMate's keyboard shortcut list into a PDF reference card. Go to http:// keyref.octopod.info and follow the instructions to generate your own. You can choose up to eight of the bundles you have installed to add to the card and generate as many as you want. I built this because I switched to TextMate just over a month ago and found myself very lost initially. Several people found the first card I generated useful so I decided other people might and ended up with the web app. It takes the shortcut list TextMate generates, so will include all your own shortcuts as well as the standard ones. If you find this useful, or have any problems, please let me know. Cheers, Chris http://keyref.octopod.info

Tracking and resolving dependencies

by Eric O'Brien

I'm interested if there is a way or technique (or even "trick") that will allow me to track and resolve naming dependencies in a TextMate project. Specifically, I'm thinking of the situation where, as I develop a web site, I decide that I need to move or rename an existing file. In order to prevent the website from breaking, I must then locate and change any and all references to that file in ALL of the files in the project. I can use Find and Replace in Project to accomplish that, but this is hardly proactive on the part of TextMate. I have to stop to do it, or *remember* to do it later. If I were using GoLive or Dreamweaver I assume that if I changed the name of a file in a project, I'd get a message that that file was referenced in "X" number of files and would I like to update all those files to reflect the new name? Is there any way now (or might there be any way in the future) to handle this situation? I'm not programming in C or the like, but it seems to me that a similar situation could occur there: Say that for some reason you change the name of an include or header file... you'll be into a real mess if you don't detect all the locations in the code where that file is referenced and change it! OR... if you change a variable name for some reason, references to that name will need to be changed (even though we aren't changing a FILE name in that case). Thanks, eo

excluding match from language pattern

Anybody wish to help me with a pattern for the PHP language bundle? I have embedded SQL under a variable such as below. I'm having trouble excluding the addslashes part from the scope. $sql = "WHERE category = '" . addslashes($category) . "'"; ...or... $qid = DB::query(" WHERE category = '" . addslashes($category) . "' "); The pattern I've come up with so far: { name = 'meta.scope.sql'; begin = '(dbQuery|DB::query)$"|\$\w*(sql|where)\w*\s*=\s*"'; end = '"$|";'; patterns = ( { include = 'source.sql'; }, ); contentName = 'source.sql.embedded'; }, I'm new at this so any help would be appreciated.

bracket matching feature??

by ke han

I have playing with TextMate for about a week and don't seem to find a "bracket" matching feature. Example, when I double click on a { or [ or (, the match closure is found and all code in between is highlighted. Or something to that effect. I have seen other editors simply highlight both the begin and end characters when the cursor is on one of them. Am I missing something obvious or does this not exist? thanks, ke han

LaTeX section snippets: special chars don't get escaped in label

by Oliver Hagmann

Hi Here's a question for the latex pro's: Do you know if special characters like german umlauts are allowed in labels? e.g.: \section{Mein grünes Apfelbäumchen} \label{mein_grünes_apfelbäumchen} It works when typesetting the document. I just wanted to know if this is valid code. Because if _not_ then it would be nice, if these would be escaped automagically when using the section, subsection and subsubsection snippets. E.g.: \section{Mein grünes Apfelbäumchen} \label{mein_gruenes_apfelbaeumchen} If it's easier to accomplish, you could also just escape a for ä, u for ü, and o for ö, etc. Another nice enhancement would be if the \section and \label commands would each be on a seperate line. I just asked about the oppinions on this in the irc channel and I got at least one more vote for this ;-) Cheers. Oliver

Arrow behavior with selected text--bug?

by Dr. Drang

When I select a word by double-clicking on it and then hit either the left or right arrow key, I expect the word to be deselected and the caret to end up at the start or end of the word. This isn't what TM [Version 1.5 (906)] is doing for me now, and its breaking a macro I'm trying to create. It appears that hitting an arrow key with text selected by double- clicking puts the caret one character to the left or right of where the double-click happened. No other current Mac program that I use does this, nor can I remember any other Mac program ever behaving this way (going back to 1985). So, unless I've inadvertently changed some setting to start this behavior, I would call this a bug. FYI, the arrow keys work as expected when the selection is made by swiping or shift-clicking. -- Dr. Drang

Screenwriting bundle 2.0

by Oliver Taylor

I've released version 2 of my screenwriting bundle. release: http://ollieman.net/words/2006/03/ screenwriting_with_textmate_20.php bundle: http://ollieman.net/code/screenwriting/textmate/ --- I've tried to document it into the ground, which is the reason there are so many instructional videos. (I hope you finally understand what I'm doing, Haris) From the release: > It may seem oblique that the reason I learned the first bit of CSS > and XHTML I did was because late one night I was pissed off at > Final Draft for crashing for the 3rd time in a row. I was convinced > that there had to be a better way, that there had to be a way to > write screenplays that didn’t hurt. I don’t remember why this > propelled me to CSS, but it did. > > Well, I can now firmly say that I have found a way of writing > screenplays that doesn’t hurt. Never-mind that I had to build it > myself, never-mind that the process took me over a year. I’ve found > it. I'd like to take a second and thank all of you for helping me with this. It's an amazing thing that I've managed to build for myself (at least) an end-to-end solution for writing screenplays that I actually enjoy using. And no small part of that is due to the users of this list, you have made this a learning experience that has resulted in a useful tool. It's not just that TextMate is my new favorite app. It's that I feel as though Allan and the community around TextMate are genuinely working together to advance the quality of our collective writing environments; it's not just features and buttons, it's progress. And for that, I cannot thank you enough. -- oliver ollieman.net

select paragraph and line

by Oliver Taylor

Just a quick question this time. Is there any practical difference between 'edit›select›paragraph' & 'edit›select›line'? I expected that 'select›paragraph' would not select the newline at the end of the string, leaving me free to delete a block of text and not remove the line itself from the document. This (expected) behavior would really be nice for some macros I'm working on. — oliver

hint: documentation popup with ruby on rails development

by David Smiley

I've been using TextMate for Ruby on Rails development for over a month now. One thing I missed from some Java IDEs was documentation popup. With TextMate, you can hit control-H on a symbol and the Ruby bundle will use `ri` to try to find it. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. However, Ruby gems (such as Rails) are not processed for use by ri. To do that, you have to do it manually. I performed the following this task with just one command on the terminal: rdoc --ri-site /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/act*/lib The '*' will expand to all of the active... action... stuff that is for rails. Once this completes (which will take a few minutes), you can finally use control-H for rails related classes and methods and get quick access to documentation. Sweet! Oh, for some caveats on this technique, check out this URL: http://www.codecomments.com/archive327-2005-5-510886.html So basically this technique isn't perfect but it's better than before. ~ Dave Smiley

Extremely slow pasting of text

by Michael Ströck

Hi all, I'm having problems with big files. TextMate, for me, is practically unuseable for many applications, and I'm not sure wether something is wrong, or I'm just witnessing limitations of the app itself. TextMate takes upwards of 3 minutes to paste moderately long pieces of text (30-70 KB) without line breaks. I use TextMate to edit Wikipedia entries, which are sometimes badly formated. Thirty thousand characters and not a newline in sight. When I copy texts like that and try to paste them into TextMate, it practically dies. Three times out of five, it won't recover. If it comes back, it's unbearably slow and practically unuseable. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a known issue? I am on a G4 1,25GHz with 1 GB of RAM. Firefox's textfields can handle pasting and editing of 1MB snippets (I tried) without a hitch, EVEN in those JavaScript rich editor abominations, which probably aren't the most optimized pieces of code ever to parse text. And that's with all the other crap going on, like 10 tabs open and several exensions installed. What's going on? Michael Ströck

Unable to create files from templates

Hey all, I just started tasting TextMate today, great app. I was wondering is there any trick to get "creating files from templates" functional? I mean nothing happen when I click the "create" button. Here's some error from my console.log that I guess which is related to the problem I'm facing: 2006-03-07 18:26:01.742 TextMate[2305] Error laoding '/Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Java.tmbundle/Templates/ addrbook.awk/info.plist' as Templates 2006-03-07 18:26:01.742 TextMate[2305] Error laoding '/Applications/ TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Java.tmbundle/Templates/ templatize.sh/info.plist' as Templates Tank you for your help.

Combining snippets and commands?

by Dr. Drang

When writing Markdown, I like to use reference-style links: [link text][id] . . <rest of text> . . [id]: http://www.site.com I've written a snippet that does some of what I want: [${1:description}][${2:id}]$0 [${2:id}]: ${3:href} but it puts the reference on the line below the link rather than at the bottom of the file. Although I haven't done it, I suspect that writing a command that takes the link label line and puts it at the bottom of the file wouldn't be too difficult. But before I give it a try, I'd like to know if it's possible to combine the snippet and the command into a single instruction that allows me to enter the 3 pieces of information, puts the link label at the bottom of the file, and leaves the caret back at the [id]. -- Dr. Drang

Persistent Includes?

by csilver_junk＠mac.com

Hello, I've been a lurking member of this list for some time, but this is my first attempt at posting. I've been trying out TextMate in demo mode and plan to buy it because it's nearly perfect for the way I work, but I have a couple questions I'm hoping somebody could clear up for me. I'm not a programmer, so please forgive me if my questions seem somewhat elementary. I do, however, use the Terminal quite often for shell commands, and I understand PHP well enough to write code for my own purposes. I prefer coding my web pages by hand, and I'm fluent in XHTML and CSS and competent in XSLT. I'm a bit anal about clean coding, usability, and accessibility (both for the end user and for me when writing my pages). For these reasons among others, I've been disappointed by virtually all of the website generation applications and/or scripts I've tried. It seems they require lots of convoluted configuration that just gets in my way. Besides, I'd rather just do it all myself with flat text files, using scripting just to generate the headers, footers, navigation, etc. I'm not necessarily concerned with TextMate's ability to do the many super-complicated things it obviously can do, as I probably won't use most of it myself. However, I'm wondering if it has a feature similar to the Persistent Includes available in BBEdit. I have examined the manual and read about how to use snippets, templates, commands, and the like, and I understand how these could be used to make my life easier. The problem is that I haven't figured out if there's a way to re-parse an entire project or certain files within a project after I've made changes that will affect the output. For instance, if I've used a script to output links to all the files contained in the directory (as a navigation menu of sorts) but later add more files to that same directory, I'd like to be able to re- generate the entire site so that those new files show up in the menu. Likewise, if I've generated prev/next links to other files in the same directory, I'd like to have them updated without having to manually type the new hyperlinks into each and every file of the site. I know I could use PHP or server-side includes or something similar (and I have written a simple php function to do just that), but I'd really like to generate static web pages because having dynamic pages online really isn't necessary for what I'm doing (also, I can upload the same files both to .Mac and to my virtual host, for example). If nothing resembling Persistent Includes is available in TextMate, another viable option would be to auto-generate the output of an entire project but save it to a new directory on my system using the same hierarchy of the original project. That way, I can simply re- generate it whenever I need to. In fact, that would probably be a simpler solution than the Persistent Includes idea, but of course you all probably know much more about how to efficiently accomplish this than I do. Also, if anyone could point me in the direction of a good streamlined tutorial on how to use shell scripts in an environment such as TextMate, perhaps I can figure it out on my own. The TextMate manual is nice, but something more tutorial-like would help a lot. Sorry for the long post - it actually started out longer with more details about my background and what I do, but I figured people may get annoyed, so I cut it. If I need to further clarify exactly what I need to accomplish, please ask, but I suspect most of you are quite familiar with BBEdit and know about how Persistent Includes work and how they differ from regular Includes. Thanks, Crystal

MediaWiki bundle + Ruby library for interfacing w/ wiki pages

by Andrew Dupont

I've made a bit of progress in writing a MediaWiki bundle, the goal of which would be to allow one to use TextMate as an external editor on Wikipedia and other sites using the MediaWiki software. I've written an alpha version of a Ruby library to machine-read/screen- scrape wiki pages -- for example: page = new MediaWiki::Page('TextMate') page.contents.gsub!(/Textmate/, 'TextMate') page.save('Corrected capitalization') I've also built a few proof-of-concept TextMate commands -- fetch selection from Wikipedia, etc., and have done a very small amount of work on a MediaWiki syntax grammar (though the one described here <http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2006-January/ 007623.html> might be further along). In short, I'm trying to replicate as much as possible of the functionality of mwjed <http://www.djini.de/software/mwjed/>, a jEdit plugin with the same purpose. This would include being able to configure multiple wikis independently, log in, etc., so the bundle will have to keep track of a bit of configuration info. If anyone is interested in contributing to this project in any way, or has any ideas on how I can more elegantly keep track of a wiki "instance" across individual pages, please let me know. I'm decent enough in Ruby to get by (though my code could definitely benefit from another pair of eyes), but if you've got specific expertise in Objective-C I'd love your assistance in writing some dialogs like the ones in the Subversion bundle. The bundle is in no way ready for inclusion in the bundle repository, but I can share what I've got with anyone who's interested. I invite questions, comments, and general ridicule. Cheers, Andrew Dupont http://andrewdupont.net

Latest Python Bundle?

by Owen Densmore

I'm using TextMate 1.5 (906), and just starting to get involved with a couple of Python projects. I watched the Python screencast by Domenico Carbotta .. quite nice! But there are a few snippets missing, I think. I'd like to use for<tab> to build a for-loop template. Ditto for all the controls like if, ifelse, while, and possibly a few others. Are these in the Subversion repository? I tried to download the entire bundle set from svn using the instructions on: http://macromates.com/wiki/Main/SubversionCheckout but it had an error. So basically I'm looking for a bit more python help in TM but not sure how to proceed. Thanks! -- Owen Owen Densmore http://backspaces.net - http://redfish.com - http://friam.org

Re: [TxMt] find in project text field

But the situation I'm often confronted to in my job is editing whole sites coded by others that have the same exact HTML on millions of pages and I really need to use the project wide search and replace feature in order to be anywhere close to productive... If there's is any chance to implement the same collapse window thinggy from the regular search in the future, it would be great. Thanks again for your help.

Crash when aborting svn commit

by Gerd Knops

I have TM set to be the editor for the svn commit messages. I run 'svn commit' from a terminal window, but then changed my mind and aborted with 'Ctrl-C'. The tab in TM containing the log entry file disappeared, leaving an empty spot in its place (TM window background). TM crashed a couple of clicks later... Relevant part of the crash log below. Seems reproducible, though looks different on screen depending on the window history.

How to: Change command / format

by Eric Coleman

I didn't know about command + / till the other day, however i've run into a minor issue. If I have source like the following: function do_me() { /* this was some old shit */ /* $var = blah */ echo 'hello'; } the command + / shortcut will turn it into: /*function do_me() { /* this was some old shit */ /* $var = blah */ echo 'hello'; }*/ which is deffinitly a no go. how could I change it so that it would result in: // function do_me() // { // /* this was some old shit */ // /* // $var = blah // */ // // echo 'hello'; // } Thanks, Eric Coleman

Specifying a 'funky' file path

by Gavin Kistner

I am (almost done) writing an HTML output script for my Lua bundle which (among other things) provides TextMate links for syntax error codes. I put one of my files in a path with a space in the name, and it took me a fair amount of experimenting to figure out how TextMate and Lua independently wanted to see the URL. The raw path as supplied in the argument list is: /Users/gavinkistner/Desktop/pork butt/bling/tmp.lua To pass that to Lua, I needed to escape the space char: file_path = Pathname.new( ARGV[0].gsub( %r{([^\w/.])}, '\\\\\1' ) ) #=> /Users/gavinkistner/Desktop/pork\ butt/bling/tmp.lua To create the parameter for the TextMate URL, I needed to NOT have that escaping. If I perform HTML escaping (for valid HTML) the space may not be represented as a '+' char, but must be a %20. WORK: <a href='txmt://open?url=file:///Users/gavinkistner/Desktop/pork butt/ orxit.lua&line=6'> <a href='txmt://open?url=file%3A%2F%2F%2FUsers%2Fgavinkistner% 2FDesktop%2Fpork%20butt%2Forxit.lua&line=6'> DON'T WORK: <a href='txmt://open?url=file:///Users/gavinkistner/Desktop/pork\ butt/orxit.lua&line=6'> <a href='txmt://open?url=file%3A%2F%2F%2FUsers%2Fgavinkistner% 2FDesktop%2Fpork+butt%2Forxit.lua&line=6'> The Ruby code to create the valid URL param: htmlpath = CGI.escape( "file://" + File.expand_path( path+file, file_dir ).gsub( /\\(.)/, '\\1' ) ).gsub('+','%20') As a more pathological case, I renamed the folder in Finder to "pork \ % / butt" The "/" in the name is apparently a ":" on the file system: gavinkistner$ cd pork\ \\\ %\ \:\ butt/ gavinkistner$ pwd /Users/gavinkistner/Desktop/pork \ % : butt My code produces: <a href='txmt://open?url=file%3A%2F%2F%2FUsers%2Fgavinkistner% 2FDesktop%2Fpork%20%5C%20%25%20%3A%20butt%2Forxit.lua&line=6'> and it works. Yay! :)

find in project text field

by minimal.design

In the regular find window, there's that arrow button you can click to get a multi line text field where to enter your search query, but I don't see it when I do a search in whole project, which is kind of a pain when looking for lengthy pieces of code... Did I miss something? Thanks!

Mercurial bundle: other shortcut than cmd-H

by Oliver Hagmann

Hello there I just noticed that the new Mercurial bundle uses cmd-H to activate its commands. I use this shortcut very often for hiding Textmate and other applications. It's a system wide shortcut for hiding applications. So I might not be the only one doing this. It's no big problem for me since I can always disable the bundle with the filter. All the same it might be a good idea to change it to anoter shortcut. Cheers. Oliver

Growl instead of tool tips

by David Levy

>I don't know if you use Growl but it's pretty versatile. You can >choose the place where it pops up, the type of notif. (even speech or >mail - not that useful for TM), the icon, how long it stays, etc. on >per command basis (even over a network). So it can be used for notif. >of background tasks as well for "instant feedback on the command >executed". Allan I think you use this discussion list as a user feedback collection point. In which case, FWIW, I would be very glad for Growl support too for the reasons stated above. Growl is highly configurable, usable in a persistent, immediate and coalesced modes and very OS X. I find tooltips fiddly and non-persistent. I use most text at 14 points and I find tooltips bothersome to read. cheers David.
