REQUEST: Multi-line text boxes in Find dialog, Show invisibles in Find dialog

by Adam Twardoch (List)

One of the great things in TextMate 1 was that the Find/Replace dialog had a toggle to switch between the default view and an expanded view, where both text boxes were large scrollable "text areas", i.e. they allowed intuitive multiline editing of search-replace clauses. This is also how it's currently done in BBEdit. The TextMate 2 Find/Replace dialog looks like the default view of TM1, i.e. consists of two "input areas", i.e. one-line controls. It took me a while to figure out that you can actually type Alt+Enter there, and then the controls expand vertically -- so it's better than the default TM1 mode. But I still lack the truly "expanded" view where the text boxes were, say, 8 lines tall. Also an important feature request would be the ability to "Show Invisibles" in the Find/Replace window. Actually, I think "Show invisibles" should be the default or even the only display mode in the Find/Replace text boxes. Regards, Adam Twardoch TextMate user since 2007 (i.e. since moving from Windows to the Mac)

Projects in TM2: simple include/exclude directories

by backspaces

TM2 changed the concept of projects. Could someone point to the best pages/posts for explaining them? First of all, *are* there projects? I see the .tm_properties discussions but not sure how to correctly use them, or how to build a project that has multiple folders. My projects are of two kinds: github and multi-folder. I think the first is easy once I understand the format of the .tm_properties file (God I wish it were JSON, but I digress) because there's one obvious top level folder, the git repo, and I can include/exclude files/folders in .tm_properties, I think. But the second is harder I think. Think of my home directory with several folders I'd like to include in multiple projects. Ex: my bin dir and my notes dir to start with. I could built a .tm_properties file in the home dir which include bin and dir (both of which might also have their own .tm_properties?) But then I also want another project in my home dir that includes two other folders, src and hax. How do I manage that? I can't rely on the single home .tm_properties .. I seem to need two of them. The solution for me with Sublime is to have a folder of projects, each of which is a JSON tree which can aim its path at specific sets of folders anywhere in my system with associated include/excludes. Can I do this in TM2? Easily? Thanks! -- Owen -- View this message in context: http://textmate.1073791.n5.nabble.com/Projects-in-TM2-simple-include-exclud… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Crash occurs with 'callback.document.will-save' and 'Save: Current Document'

by Quinn Comendant

This is a possible bug report: Textmate 2.0-alpha.9495 crashes (or rather, gets stuck) when executing a command which has both of these options defined: Semantic Class: callback.document.will-save Save: Current Document As in screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/1ghCVC3.png Nobody would *want* to set both of these, but I thought mention this in case, as it happened to me, you set them inadvertently. -- Quinn Comendant Strangecode, LLC http://www.strangecode.com/ +1 530 624 4410 mobile +1 530 636 2633 office @qc and @strangecode

Regular expression to replace code

Let's says I have this code: is.numeric(mean(mtcars$mpg)) Let's says I highlight the code and press CMD+E to use code as find. What regular expression can I use to strip the outer function? So the replacement code would be mean(mtcars$mpg) Cheers Ross

Reformat ^Q does not account comments and other boundaries

by Adam Strzelecki

Since reformat & reformat+justify are built-ins I can’t really provide decent patch w/o asking prior how we could solve the issue. Two examples: (1) Git commit: I type commit message, than I press ⌃Q on 2nd paragraph. > ——————————— before —————————— > > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet > > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. > # Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting > # with '#' will be ignored, and an empty message aborts the commit. > # On branch master > > ——————————— after ——————————— > > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet > > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor > incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. # Please enter the commit message > for your changes. Lines starting # with '#' will be ignored, and an empty > message aborts the commit. # On branch master # # Initial commit # This isn’t really what I would expect. Of course when I put empty line after 2nd paragraph it does work fine. Unfortunately I keep forgetting about that. (2) Same applies to LaTeX, which is even more frustrating, since empty line in LaTex is actually meaningful. > ——————————— before —————————— > > \documentclass{article} > \begin{document} > \title Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. > \end{document} > > ——————————— after ——————————— > > \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \title Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, > consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et > dolore magna aliqua. \end{document} > > ——————————— expected ——————————— > > \documentclass{article} > \begin{document} > \title Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod > tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. > \end{document} Also this applies to following cases when new environment starts before some text block. > ——————————— before —————————— > long paragraph text > % comment > ——————————— after ——————————— > long paragraph text > wrapped % comment > ——————————— before —————————— > long paragraph text > \begin{equation} … > ——————————— after ——————————— > long paragraph text > wrapped \begin{equation} … So basically reformat should take into account paragraph boundaries of given language (grammar). I’d say it would be just enough if paragraph boundary would be: (1) line with commend (2) ending or starting of fold scope WDYT? — Adam

rmate problem

by Ken Snyder

I have been using rmate successfully -- installed with "gem install rmate" on an Ubuntu system -- but rmate wasn't being recognised by the root user (via sudo commands) so I did some fooling around in trying to install rmate for root. Didn't go well so I gave up. The problem is now it doesn't work for any user. When I type "rmate filename" I get: > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rmate-1.5.5/bin/rmate:148:in > `initialize': Connection refused - connect(2) (Errno::ECONNREFUSED) > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rmate-1.5.5/bin/rmate:148:in > `new' > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rmate-1.5.5/bin/rmate:148:in > `connect_and_handle_cmds' > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rmate-1.5.5/bin/rmate:186:in > `block in <top (required)>' > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rmate-1.5.5/bin/rmate:185:in > `fork' > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rmate-1.5.5/bin/rmate:185:in > `<top (required)>' > > from /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/rmate:23:in `load' > > from /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/rmate:23:in `<main>' > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in > `eval' > > from > /home/ubuntu/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in > `<main>' > Not being a rubiest or even much Ubuntist I'm seeking help from the community.

Session restore for favorites

by Dave Vogel

Does anyone have a solution to restore tabs when a new favorite project is opened? I have several projects I work with, switching back and forth frequently. In TM1, opening a project would restore the previously opened tabs. In TM2 when a favorite is reopened no tabs are restored (which is understandable since I don’t believe there is any machinery to do this). I do know that the initial session is restored at application launch, from the last project closed when the TM2 application is closed. Ideally, I would like a mechanism that could save the meta data (files open in tabs and cursor position) for any favorite project when it is closed and restore the session when a favorite is reopened. If I have ’n’ different favorite projects, I would have ’n’ different sessions saved. If there is a way to run a shell script “hook” at close and open of a favorite, I suppose I could write some code to do this. Since I’m somewhat new to TM2, I’m not sure what capabilities are available to do things like this. Thanks for any help or suggestions. — dave

Commands in Textmate 2

by Geoff Vallis

Hello, I'm transitioning to Textmate 2 and I would like to use some 'commands' that I used with Textmate 1.5, mainly for LateX, but I am having trouble. As a simple example, in Textmate 1.5, I wrote a command that opened a Terminal window and listed the LaTeX master file, thus: --------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/env bash [[ -f "${TM_SUPPORT_PATH}/lib/bash_init.sh" ]] && . "${TM_SUPPORT_PATH}/lib/bash_init.sh" TM_LATEX_MASTER=`${TM_RUBY:-ruby} <<"RUBY" require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/escape.rb" require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb" master = LaTeX.master(ENV['TM_LATEX_MASTER'] || ENV['TM_FILEPATH']) puts master RUBY` cd ${TM_DIRECTORY} /Users/gkv/scripts/term2 "echo ${TM_LATEX_MASTER} " ------------------------------------- The script 'term2' opens a terminal window and executes the command following. This command now longer works in Textmate 2. However, Textmate 2 certainly knows what the master file is, because the standard Textmate command for opening the master file works as expected. What would the correct script be? Please be explicit in any answer you may have, as I am an end-user not a programmer! More generally, is there a place I can read about how to construct such commands in Textmate 2. Regards, Geoff

LaTeX: Improving bibliographical label completion

by JairoB

This is not a bug report but a question on how I could improve TM for my personal use. I use a macro \myhyperbibitem that extends the usual \bibitem to allow hyperlinks in the bibliography. (If you're curious: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/39177/web-links-in-the-bibliographic… ) Is it too difficult to edit the LaTeX bundle so that the drop-down menu that appears when I hit Command+Esc on \cite{} also includes both kinds of labels (\bibitem and \myhyperbibitem)? Here's an example: \myhyperbibitem[St]{http://tex.stackexchange.com/}{Stack} Stackexchange -- Tex \bibitem[Ho]{Hobbit} J.R.R. Tolkien. The Hobbit. In this case, the labels that should appear on the drop-down list are "Stack" and "Hobbit". PS: Thank you Allan for solving the \ref{} problem. ----- Jairo Bochi http://www.mat.puc-rio.br/~jairo/ -- View this message in context: http://textmate.1073791.n5.nabble.com/LaTeX-Improving-bibliographical-label… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

jumping

by Kyle Johnson

With 9491I am experiencing a problem that occurs when I switch from one document in a tab to another document in a tab. If I move the cursor to, say, line 196 in one document, then move to the document behind another tab, once I return to the document behind the first tab, the cursor is still on line 196 but the document scrolls (quickly) up about a page (around line 126 in the case I am looking at right now) so that the cursor is no longer in view. I run TextMate on OS 10.9, this happens on LaTeX documents. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Perl, don't indent pod code?

by Justin Catterall

Looking for help with language grammar. Coding in perl, and adding pod (documentation) within a codeblock, pod code gets automatically indented. Is there a way to have lines that begin with a = symbol auto- 'out-dent'? And then any subsequent lines, before a '=cut' line to be indented to match the previous line? It's been a long time since I've looked at the language grammars in TM and, if they've changed in TM2 then I'm starting afresh. Any clues where to start would be gratefully received. -- Justin Catterall www.masonsmusic.co.uk Director T: +44 (0)1424 427562 Masons Music Ltd F: +44 (0)1424 434362 For full company details see our web site

Inconsistent use of Application Support folders

by Dominic Morgan

Hi, I'm trying to symlink parts of my Application Support folder off into Dropbox so I can share between machines. In doing so, I noticed some rather odd behaviour. My belief was that TextMate2 used the ~/Application Support/Avian folder for everything you install and all it's deltas but that it still loads items from ~/Application Support/TextMate so that you can pull your old bundles/plugins etc. from TextMate1. However, there seem to be inconsistencies. When I double click a .tmbundle file, this seems to be installed into the Avian folder but when I double click a .tmplugin file this goes into the TextMate folder. Am I completely misunderstanding how this stuff works? Which of the folders is it I need to symlink out, or both to be able to share between machines? Dom

Graphics card switching on Mavericks

by Nigel Chapman

I just installed 10.9 on my 15-inch, Mid 2010 MacBook Pro. gfxCardStatus is now telling me that whenever Textmate (2.0-alpha.9489) is running, the system uses the nVidia discrete graphics card. Textmate is listed in the Dependencies, so it is definitely what is causing the switch. Textmate is also listed as an App Using Significant Energy under the battery status menu. I don't think this was happening before the upgrade to Mavericks, though it might have come in with the latest build of TM and I just didn't notice. Anybody else seen this?

Latex label completion in Textmate 2

by JairoB

After a few years using Textmate to type LaTeX, I updated to Textmate 2. I'm happy with it but I still have a few problems. The label completion ceased to work. I type \ref{} and press Command+Esc, but instead of getting a list of labels I get the following error message on a window: Failure running “Label Based on Current Word / Selection…”. Label Based on Current Word / Selection…:9: invalid regular expression; there's no previous pattern, to which '{' would define cardinality at 1: /{}/ (RegexpError) Does this mean it hasn't found any labels? Of course, I'm testing this on a file where (many) labels were defined. BTW, completion for bibliographical labels (\cite{}) is working as before. -- View this message in context: http://textmate.1073791.n5.nabble.com/Latex-label-completion-in-Textmate-2-… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[BUG] ver 2.0-alpha.9495 PHP $parent autocomplete

by Ezra Prakasa

Hello, I'am a new member. I found a bug in version 2.0-alpha.9495 when I have the $parent variable and press tab after that, I get autocomplete I did not expect: - When the $parent variable in the function in a class, such as the example below: class myClass { public function myFunction ($attr ='') { $parent{tab} } } Will produce: class myClass { public function myFunction ($attr ='') { $parent::myFunction($attr); } } - When the variable in the class, such as the example below: class myClass { public $parent{tab} } Will result in: class myClass { public $ }parent - When the variable in the php file, not in the last line, such as the example below: <?php $parent{tab} function myFunction () { } ?> Will result in: <?php $ function myFunction () { } ?>parent - When the variable below the function , such as the example below: <?php function myFunction () { } $parent{tab} ?> Will result in: <?php function myFunction () { } $parent::myFunction(); ?> However, if $parent variable in the empty php file and the last line, will result in a tab character should be. How can I disable the autocomplete function on the tab? Thank you

New user: first impressions and feature requests

by BigZite

Hi Everyone Just started using TextMate 2 yesterday for coding websites (html5, css, php) and I really like it so far. It's running very stable on OS X mountain lion (not one crash yet). I'm sick of using Dreamweaver because it has bugs and other free titles like blueGriffon are still too buggy on the Mac. The find and replace window you guys built trashes dreamweaver's and runs really fast (except find/replace for "open files" is grayed out). Tabs are great, love the file browser as well. All in all it works fast, stable and looks great. I'm not a programmer by trade so I hope to give you all some feedback coming from an artist's perspective as I work and see places for improvement. So far I cannot get my PHP sites to preview. I get errors that the files can't be found even though they are there and if I preview in my browser using MAMP they work fine and also validate with using Validator S.A.C. I also noticed that when adding php into parts of HTML the syntax highlighting is not consistent (see image below). This primarily happens when doing something like this: <div class="headerBanner <?php echo $bannerClass; ?>"> <div class="bannerText"><p><?php echo $bannerText; ?></p></div> </div> Also, when using simple PHP stuff like this and not adding a semicolon at the end it also messes up the following syntax highlighting. As far as I know having the semicolon is optional in a case like this. See following images. Some features I'd like to see added in the future: It would be nice to have robust preferences/tool for creating syntax highlighting themes and an option to adjust the highlight color. The dark background themes you have are great but I would like to adjust them without having to get into coding since I'm not a programmer. Dreamweaver is pretty good at this although the preview window it gives you is way too small with too little example code. Something like that only done properly would be ideal, and the ability to save and pull up themes quickly would be nice such as in a Themes Panel. Having icon/toolbar on the top and/or left of the UI would help for quick things, such as turning selection into a comment, uncommenting, folding, formatting, previewing, etc. Dreamweaver users will be familiar with this. For someone like me who uses so many applications, it's getting to the point where remembering more commands may cause cerebral hemorrhaging :P Biggest thing I could use are code hints. With all the new HTML5 and CSS3 stuff sometimes it's hard to remember every property or value that is accepted. A simple little contextual list that pops up to the right of the code one is typing would be great. I'm sure this would be a bit involved if you haven't started building it but is so handy for web development. blueGriffon has this feature so there should be a way you can do this and avoid patent problems. Would be great to be able to show favorites panel and the file browser simultaneously and be able to move their location and adjust the divider(s) between them. Ideally, the ability to move panels around allows each user to put things where they want them. The way QT does this is nice although not FOSS. I would also like to see support for RTF text format. I'd rather use TextMate instead of Apple's TextEdit but it seems I can only make plain text files in TextMate. This would not be for crazy layout/design stuff, but just for taking notes and technical documents so I can use different fonts on my system and adjust font size and styling (B/I/U) on a per character/word/paragraph basis, add hyperlinks, and toss in the occasional image if needed. Basically what an email client allows you to do. If there is a way to do this now please let me know. I would also like to see some additional formatting options for web development. For CSS control+Q works great, but control+alt+Q removes ALL the spaces. Having more control over this would help during different stages of a project so it's legible until I want to strip the spaces before pushing live. Dreamweaver let's you set various global preferences for CSS formatting like this. It would be nice to be able to adjust this in the preferences so I can get spaces in between properties for legibility: example: html{height:100%;width:100%;} would become--> html { height:100%; width:100%; } Also, for formatting (at least CSS), having options like this would help: space before comment, space after comment, one selector per line, one property per line. This way when formatting the file and not just a selection, things would be properly spaced apart, indented, etc. Either the prefs should allow for globally setting this, or variations on control+Q should do it (I also detest using the control key so maybe. Something that would also be cool is to convert text to HTML ASCII and other methods of munging text and email addresses. I saw the ROT13 stuff but that might be more than needed for what I do in most cases and not sure how compatible it is (i.e. if a user has javascript disabled). ----------------------- Here's a few more things to look at for future builds. HTML and PHP do not auto-format properly. The HTML "Tidy" feature adds in doctype and extra tags I don't need because I'm using PHP and includes to build sites. There should be a way to format HTML and PHP (html files, php files with html, or php functions file) where it indents things properly, leaves spaces between different parts of the document that users can specify, and corrects orphaned or unclosed tags and such. If I try to control+Q on PHP functions it moves them all to the bottom of the document away from the comments and just jacks it all up. Same with control+alt+Q. Examples below of before and after. When reformatting CSS with @font-face, control+alt+Q produces weird results and some strange looking white box symbol. control+Q works fine. -------------------------- Anyway, hope some of the explanations will help. I'm not a programmer so the most I can do is make suggestions. If you'd like me to mockup any of my ideas as far as how they could work in a UI, let me know. thanks D brieftrager(a)bigzite.com

PHP's doc command no longer working

by Ken Snyder

I haven't been editing any PHP for several weeks so not sure when it stopped working but I use the "out of the box" PHP bundle which has a *doc* autocomplete that now is giving the following error: [image: Inline images 1] As far as I know I haven't made any changes. Is there any way I can get this back to working? I use this function all the time. Ken

TextMate 2 HTML folding

by Linda Nguyen

Hi there, I just upgraded to TextMate 2, and noticed that script and style tags don't fold. The HTML bundle settings for folding seem sensible, so not sure why this doesn't work. Is there some special pre-processing of such tags that causes folding to not work (or is it working for everyone but me)? It worked fine in the previous version I was using. Best, Linda

I've somehow broken TM2 code coloring and custom snippets in bundles

by abby606

Hi guys, I'm hoping you can help. I've somehow managed to turn off code coloring, so my code now appears the same color no matter what. I also created two snippets in the PHP bundle that I can't figure out how to remove. I've tried changing themes, uninstalling, quitting, then re-installing the themes bundle, opening HTML, CSS and PHP files, changing the selector at the bottom of the application to specify what language I'm using, all to no avail. I've also completely uninstalled/removed TM2 using AppZapper and then also manually the Avian directory in Application Support and "re-installed" but it still remembers the incorrect snippets in the bundle and doesn't re-instate code coloring. TM2 remembered my preferences even after completely removing the application, I had to remove, restart, then "install" it again to get rid of those. Even still, the snippets remain (I have no idea how, I'm deleting the app, remove the TextMate & Avian directories in Application Support and the com.macromates files in Preferences) and code coloring doesn't work. I'm using the latest Nightly Build of TM2 in Mavericks Build 13A603. If no one has any ideas, if you could tell me how to fully remove the app and any/all associated files, I can have a shot at starting fresh and fixing whatever I broke, I'm obviously missing something but I don't know what. Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://textmate.1073791.n5.nabble.com/I-ve-somehow-broken-TM2-code-coloring… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

TextMate 2 and updating Bundles

by Jens Ober

Hi, I just updated to TextMate version 2.0-alpha.9489 and Max os X 10.9. I have some trouble with the Subversion bundle. The reason is, that the bundle is not up to date. The checkbox „Keep bundles updated“ under Preferences -> "Software Update" is activated. The bundle list under Preferences -> Bundles tells me, that the Subversion bundle has been updated 3 months ago. But that is not correct: the git repository has been updated 3 days ago. I also tried to follow these „Reverting to default“ steps: https://github.com/textmate/textmate/wiki/Reverting-To-Defaults But i did not solve the issue. Is there anybody who can give me some advice? Thanks. Jens

Re: jumping

by Max Lein

Yes, that happens here as well (OS X 10.9.0 and TextMate 2.0-alpha.9493), and I have also recently reset the LaTeX bundle. TextMate also jumps after doing searches, it will get stuck on another occurrence of the search term and only after I press another key it would jump to the actual place where the caret is. Max

Language grammar keyboard shortcuts

by Steven Haddock

Apologies if this has been addressed before. I would like to use the Control-Option-Shift-P shortcut to set the language of my document to Python, and never anything else. Currently, I get all 6 grammars that start with P displayed, and so I can go on to choose #6, for example. I know that if I unselect language support in the preferences, then that language is uninstalled and doesn't show up in the "P-list" anymore. Is there a way to remove languages from the shortcut list but still have support for that language grammar if I open a file of that format? Thanks...

Add bundle to textmate organization

by Peeyush Kumar

Hi, I have created a bundle (https://github.com/peeyush1234/reek.tmbundle), that looks for any code smell in ruby file. The bundle uses reek ( https://github.com/troessner/reek) for smelling code. I would like to add the bundle to the TextMate organization on github (Or where ever all the TextMate bundles are kept). What should be my next steps for the bundle? Thanks, Peeyush

Find in Project... going into la-la land over binaries

by Jason McC. Smith

I don't recall this being an issue before, but it seems that the underlying search (IIRC it uses ack?) is no longer ignoring binaries as of build 9491. This is causing the dratted beachball on every search I do in my project, as well as severely polluting the results. The binary is accessed via a symbolic link, if that matters.

Missing features in version 2.0-alpha.9489

by Sebastien Hoarau

Hi all, As suggested I've upgraded to 2-0 to keep compatibility with my new Mavericks OSX system. I've noticed some changes, in fact some missing features I found useful on previous textmate's versions: 1. no more transparency 2. when coding in Python, indentation is no more cancelled when typing ":" (I explain: when introducing an if statement, you type if test: then after the return your code is automatically indented, that's normal but when you type else: the ":" is expected to cancel the indentation of the else so it is well aligned with the if... that was the behavior of the previous versions) Do I miss some configuration or is it a known bug? Thanks for answers, -- Sébastien Hoarau

Recursive scan in LaTeX

by Gildas Hamel

The recursive scan in the LaTeX bundle Insert Citation command was working with TextMate 9489 until I tried OS 10.9. It doesn't work any more when I hit Control-Shift-{ or Option-Escape. Anything I could do to fix this issue? Here is the message from the bundle: /Users/gweltaz/Library/Application Support/Avian/Pristine Copy/Bundles/latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:204:in `recursive_scan': undefined method `each_with_index' for #<String:0x007fd7019781e8> (NoMethodError) from /Users/gweltaz/Library/Application Support/Avian/Pristine Copy/Bundles/latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:256:in `cite_scan' from /Users/gweltaz/Library/Application Support/Avian/Pristine Copy/Bundles/latex.tmbundle/Support/lib/LaTeXUtils.rb:63:in `get_citations' from Citation Based on Current Word / Selection…:8:in `<main>' Gildas

Grammar Questions

by Jeremy Whitlock

Hello all, I've been cleaning up the JavaScript grammar and as I get started on this next round of cleanups, I've run into some inconsistencies in the grammar that have led to the following questions: * When adding a language specific implementation of a grammar group, like comment.block for JavaScript, should the name of the group be comment.block (expected) or comment.block.js (What's there now)? (I can't tell if I use the name that corresponds with the root group, comment.block, or if I add the language name to the end like comment.block.js.) * Is there a way to have certain grammar features enabled based on the existence, or lack of, a certain "enabler" in the file? (For example, JavaScript has a strict mode to mark extra words as keywords due to potential plans for supporting them as keywords in the future. That being said, if you have "use strict;" in your file, certain keywords should be scoped that wouldn't be otherwise *and* variable names with those keywords should be marked as invalid.) * Why isn't 'null' treated as a constant like undefined/Infinity/NaN? Right now it's constant.language.null.js but I'd expect it to be constant.language.js. These questions, while specifically about JavaScript's implementation, are really general questions about naming, feature enablement and what defines when you break away from root groups and define your own groups. Any help would be appreciated. -- Take care, Jeremy Whitlock (@whitlockjc on Twitter) http://www.thoughtspark.org

Latex and TM2 version 2.0-alpha.9487

by svsdiscussion＠gmail.com

Dear Users, After I upgraded from the previous version to 2.0-alpha.9487, I noticed that the Textmate log windows remains open even when we don't check the box "Keep log window open" in the Latex Preferences. Is there any adjustment that I am missing?

insert a column of numbers

by Ross Ahmed

Lets say I have a list of code like this foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- "test" foo <- ³test" Is it possible to automate the insertion of columns of numbers. The output should be this: foo1 <- "test1" foo2 <- "test2" foo3 <- "test3" foo4 <- "test4" foo5 <- "test5" foo6 <- "test6" foo7 <- "test7" foo8 <- "test8" foo9 <- "test9" foo10 <- ³test10² Is there perhaps a regex or other automation that could be used? I¹m aware that it is possible to insert line numbers but this will only be useful if the 10 lines of code happen to be on lines 1-10. Thanks Ross

Finder Preview with Space and TextMate

by Sergei G

I noticed that source code files in preview look very similar to the way TextMate displays the same content. Did TextMate 2 add the feature or was it always part of Finder? Preview I am talking about is triggered in Finder when you press a space on a keyboard.

Snippet placeholder cursor location and text transformations

by Craig Hess

I created a snippet for graphviz for subgraphs as follows: subgraph cluster_${1/[[:alpha:]]+|( )/(?1:_:\L$0)/g} { style = filled; bgcolor = lightgrey; $0 label = "$1" } With it in TM1, I can quickly create snippets such as: subgraph cluster_subgraph_label { style = filled; bgcolor = lightgrey; label = "Subgraph Label" } In TM1, after expanding the snippet, the cursor moves to the 'label = "$1"' location of the $1 placeholder. However, in TM2, the cursor jumps up to the subgraph_cluster_ line, where I'm unable to take advantage of the text transformation there. I guess this would work if reworked the transformation to be on second $1, but wanted to know what the consistent behavior is or will be. Thank you for your help.

Uppercase word in snippet

by Carsten Hoever

Hi, I want to create a snippet which takes takes the filename, removes the extension and converts the remaining string to uppercase, i.e. "filename.txt" -> "FILENAME". So far I have ended up with ${TM_FILENAME/(.*)[.](.*)/\u$1/g}, but the \u only converts the first character of the string to uppercase, i.e. I get "Filename". Is there any way to convert the whole string to uppercase? Regards, Carsten

why isn't regular expression working
