Defaulting to soft tabs + undoing hard tabs

by Joe Lapp

I've just been troubleshooting why so many of my files have hard tabs in them. Now I see that whenever I create a new file in TextMate, it defaults to hard tabs. Two questions: (1) How do I have TextMate automatically assume soft tabs 2 when I create a new file? (2) Is there a way to have TextMate convert hard tabs to soft tabs on save, so I can easily fix this mess? I think once upon a time I knew that I had to manually set soft tabs for each new file, but at some point I forgot. ~joe

Bracket indenting

by Stephan Schiffels

Hi, is it correct that curly brackets feature a special behaviour in Textmate? I mean the fact that if I enter a Curly bracket { and hit enter, it will create a newline after the tab. This is not the case with other brackets: So with curly brackets I get: { Cursor } With other brackets I get: ( Cursor) Note that this is _not_ set in the indentation rules section, to my understanding. I want to mimic the behaviour of Curly brackets for other brackets as well. I know that I can use this trick used in the Snippet: "Special: Return Inside Empty Open/Close Tags" in the HTML bundle to mimic this behaviour, which I am happy to do. I just wanted to know whether I get this correctly, that the special behaviour of curly brackets is unique and built into Textmate. Thanks a lot, Stephan

Printing a Backtick from a Ruby Drag Command

by Dru Kepple

Hello... I feel like there is a super-simple answer to this, but I've spent more than enough time trying to figure this out on my own, so now I get to ask the TM community. I'm making a simple drag command, and part of the output involved a backtick. I'm using Ruby as the language of choice for the command itself, and it seems to be having trouble with the backtick. I know that the backtick, on it's own, means to run the string at the command line. But I'm doing something like this: puts "`" (Thats double quote, backtick, double quote; in other words, print a backtick, please) I've actually reduced my command to this simple line in trying to figure out where it's going wrong, and this does not produce any output. As another example, this: puts "abcd`efgh" Will output abcd and that's it. Now, when I open a new ruby document, add those lines, and run it straight from TM, I get every character I would expect. This would lead me to believe that somehow, in process of writing ruby that gets interpreted as a snippet, the backtick is actually being used as a backtick, not just another string character. Do I need to escape this somehow? I've tried this: puts "\`" Which still produces nothing. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks. +dru

Failed To Load ~/.gemrc

by brad tittle

I installed a bundle for Titanium Developer. Every time I use the Ti. trigger I get a popup "failed to load /Users/userdir/.gemrc". I have .gemrc in my directory. My searches haven't been too fruitful for an answer. Does this file need to be permissioned specially? Is there some other magic involved? Or is it related to ruby issues. Ti. actually does bring up the list. The directories referenced in .gemrc do exist. TIA -- Brad Tittle Tech Support

Guaranteeing Wrap in a "Find" Macro?

by Charles Turner

Hi all- I'm writing a macro: selectBlock: copySelectionToFindPboard: findWithOptions: All I'm doing is getting some text between square brackets, pasting it into the find dialog, and hoping to search with "wrap" enabled. Trouble is, the findWithOptions: wants to hardwire my find selection: { action = findNext; findInProjectIgnoreCase = 0; findInProjectRegularExpression = 0; findString = "[^f100914110843]"; ignoreCase = 0; regularExpression = 0; replaceAllScope = document; wrapAround = 1; } I tried removing the findString property, but then I lose the wrapAround for some reason. That is, the property is in the macro text, but wrap doesn't work when the macro is executed. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks! Charles

Re: Guide to Starting a Bundle?

Hi Ben, Delighted to see another writer who doesn't buy into Microsoft/Open/Neo/Office bloatware. I'm not a TextMate power user, but I do have some personal snippets that you could have or build on if you create an "Author" Bundle (select sentence, swap this word and next, that sort of thing).

Guide to Starting a Bundle?

by Ben Wilson

Linux user for 10 years. Bought a Mac six months ago. Bought TextMate 5.99 months ago. Wrote a novel (most of a first draft) with Vim in LaTeX compiling to PDF. Plan to write one during NaNoWriMo using TextMate; using Markdown that compiles through LaTeX to PDF (and also compiles to EPUB). First Post here. Enough. Staccato. Typing. Howdy. Presently, I've modified Kitabu (github) which gives me a set of rake tasks that do this just fine. I'd rather drink the TextMate kool-aide and create a Bundle that does what I want. I bought Scrivener (the document project tool), but it's not quite my style---I don't like the text in RTF, don't like how it manages content under the covers. I probably shouldn't care about that, but I did write a novel in LaTeX. Published an unwieldy Sci-Fi milieu "mock encyclopedia" in LaTeX, too. So, I'm used to under the covers. :-) Looking at the assorted bundles, I noticed the TODO bundle has some of what I want (ability to display output via pop-up screen like word counts). But, I'm looking for some sort of tutorial or guide to creating a bundle. Maybe my googler isn't working and I just couldn't find it when I went looking. BTW, stoked that PmWiki is the wiki engine; been using it for six years. -- Ben Wilson "We cannot determine the character or nature of a system within itself.

Open files from finder into single project (single project for all files opened from Finder)

by galtenberg

Hi gang, What I'd love is to be able to use a single TextMate project to hold all txt files opened from the finder. Is there a way to tell Finder to Open With TextMate and add to an open project? Or to just add a new tab onto the existing project? Instead of TM just opening up a new window for each file... Or is there a way to tell TextMate, through a bundle or some other way, to receive newly opened files into the currently open project?

Help getting Started...

by Matthew Murphy

Hi All, Apologies if this isn't the right place to post this questions! I have recently installed textmate on the advice of 'Ruby on Rails Tutorial Learn Rails by Example' : http://railstutorial.org/chapters/beginning#top I am up to the part where you open a file for the first time using Textmate with: mate Gemfile This works and opens up the relevant file but all of the code is black - there is no differentiation between comments, variables etc it is just a page of plain text. I have tried changing the themes but that simply changes the background colour vs the text colour but doesn't help distinguish between the different code elements. In the tutorial everything is highlighted as per a proper code editor but I just cannot find how to do this - please help!! I am sure it is something incredibly simple that I am not doing but I've watched some tutorials and searched through the help and on Google but still no luck. Any help will be very much appreciated!!

Textmate and RVM?

by Brad Hutchins

Hey has anyone experienced problems with textmate running a ruby file against RVM set to 1.9.2. The "Command R" runs ruby code, but I noticed it is running 1.8.7 (based on the errors I get when I try to run something specific to Ruby 1.9, such as the symbol short cut for hashes...) x={a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}... Does not work But the ruby 1.8.7 short cut x={a, 1, b, 2, c, 3}.... Does work. Is there a preference setting in Textmate that tells it to use which Ruby interpreter? Thanks

Longest warning ever

by Steven W Riggins

10/3/10 9:36:02 AM TextMate[5413] This application is trying to draw a very large combo box, 145 points tall. Vertically resizable combo boxes are not supported, but it happens that 10.4 and previous drew something that looked kind of sort of okay. The art in 10.5 does not break up in a way that supports that drawing. To avoid breaking existing apps, NSComboBox in 10.5 will use the 10.4 art for large combo boxes, but it won't exactly match the rest of the system. This application should be revised to stop using large combo boxes. This warning will appear once per app launch.

CSS bundle questions

by plastichairdoo

Hello all, Two questions: 1. I noticed that in the stock CSS bundle the snippets do not have a 'source' namespace. this is inconvenient since it means they popup when they're not supposed to and take up abbreviations that I would like to use in other contexts for other snippets. so - since there are about 40+ of these things, is there an easy way to change the source on all of them at once? 2. I have little to no experience building TM commands but I am wondering if it is possible to pass parameters from snippet expander shortcuts. perhaps an example would be better: In CSS bundle using snippet Tab Trigger: 'p' for 'padding', being able to input - for example - 'p20' and get 'padding: 20px;' and then later 'p10' and get 'padding: 10px' in other words the number is a variable that gets written into the expanded snippet. this seems like it should be possible but I'm not the man to figure it out. that's it! thanks, bennett

bundle amateur - actionscript 3

by Isaac Alves

Hello, I started to use TextMate with an Actionscript 3 Bundle at the office where i work and since then I'm much more productive and organized with my code, which is very important. So I installed also at home, however i cannot get it to work correctly here. When I open the Bundle Editor, I see the Actionscript 3 Bundle and all the commands, it seems to be the same at work. But they don't work here at home (except for some, like shift+return which is a 'function' snippet). For example there's a 'get' command and it is associated with the 'tab' trigger. It just doesn't work, however, it worked when I left the field "Scope Selector" blank in the Bundle Editor settings for the command 'get'. So I must be missing something there... Another thing, I use the 'clouds' theme at home and it also doesn't look the same as it looks at the office. One thing I miss is that I'm used to use class variables with an "_" before, and those variables get a different color, which helps a lot. For example: I have a class with a private var "_xOffset", and the constructor of that class receives the argument "xOffset", then "_xOffset" (in blue) receives the value of "xOffset" (in black). Here at home I can't manage to make the variable with an underline in front to get the color blue. Even though I installed TextMate, the as3 bundle file and the clouds theme from the same sources, at home and at the office. What could I be missing ? Thanks in advance ! -- Isaac

Re formatting several blocks of rows to a table?

by pooz

Hi there, I am trying to reproduce a table, which I copied the elemnts out of a pdf-file to create a LaTeX-Table. Fortunately there is a macro in the LaTeX-Bundle, which creates a table of selected items automatically. But my items, when pasted into TextMate aren´t properly formated. There a 3 blocks consisting of 10 rows. The blocks are seperated by an empty line. But I would like to have the block (name it vector) as a column, and the second vector as the second column...ending with a 10x3 Matrix So, how to change this: a a a b b b c c c Into: a b c a b c a b c Thank you very much for your help. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Reformatting-several-blocks-of-rows-to-a-table--tp298… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

xelatex in Textmate

Possible to add on to language instead of "overwrite"?

by minimal design

I've looked through the docs but can't figure it out... I'm trying to add CSS3 stuff to the default CSS bundle, but I don't want to touch the original bundle off course so in my own bundle I try something like: { scopeName = 'source.css.mcss'; fileTypes = ( 'css', 'css.erb', 'less'); foldingStartMarker = '/\*\*(?!\*)|\{\s*($|/\*(?!.*?\*/.*\S))'; foldingStopMarker = '(?<!\*)\*\*/|^\s*\}'; patterns = ( { name = 'meta.selector.css'; begin = '^(?=\s*[:.*#a-zA-Z])'; end = '(?=\{)'; patterns = ( { name = 'entity.name.tag.css'; match = '\b(article|aside|audio|canvas|command|datalist|details|embed|figcaption|figure|footer|header|hgroup|keygen |mark|menu|meter|nav|output|progress|rp|rt|ruby|section|summary|time|video|wbr)\b'; }, ); }, { include = "source.css"; } ); } and I get all the new elements highlighted like they're supposed to, but that "cancels out" the standard CSS elements. I thought adding the "source.css" would take care of that but obviously it doesn't... Do I have to include the standard elements back into the regex? Is there a better way?

Textmate doesn't remember the current working directory

Launch Current File with Ruby at Terminal

by Tom Wardrop

Hi All, I'm currently just starting to get into TextMate on my Mac, and E-TextEditor on Windows. One thing I'd like to be able to do is launch the currently active ruby file in Ruby at the terminal, as opposed the to the default "RubyMate". I essentially want a command prompt to open and the following command to be run: /path/to/ruby "/path/to/current/ruby/file". Does anyone know of a simple command to do this so I can add to my Ruby "bundle". Note, I want to manually specify the path to my ruby executable in the command. I don't want to use the Ruby version bundled with TextMate. Cheers, Tom

Hi everyone, I have a small program that detects errors and outputs their presence in a file "error.txt" with the following format: <Error> found in line 84 <Error> found in line 98 <Error> found in line 129 <Error> found in line 300 <Error> found in line 620 <Error> found in line 1000 I was wondering can I build something (macro? command?) that will help me navigate through this errors, without me going manually to each line. Like when textmate displays errors where you can just simply click on a link to jump to that line number.

Support for PHP Alternate Syntax

by Timothy Mackey

Hi, is there any support in TextMate for PHP's Alternate Syntax? e.g. Regular Syntax: <?php if (1 == 1) { //Output } else { //Output } ?> e.g. Alternate Syntax: <?php if (1 == 1): //Output else: //Output endif; ?> At the moment, I can't find a way to get code-folding working with the alternate syntax, and I would also like to be able to set TextMate's TAB auto-complete to use the alternate syntax.

Ruby Code Completion Error

by Tom Wardrop

When I press Option + Escape to use the intelligent auto-complete functionality of TextMate, the following is dumped to the file I'm currently editing... */tmp/temp_textmate.KzzomC:38:in `<main>': undefined method `to_a' for "":String (NoMethodError)* The "KzzomC" string is variable, but the rest is always the same. Does anyone know how to fix this as it would be really good to be able to get this functionality working. Tom

Help! Need to recover lost bundle

by DZ-Jay

Hello: I was editing my bundle in the Bundle Editor of TextMate, and I inadvertently hit some key combination that caused my entire bundle to get deleted. The worse part is that I can't seem to be able to restore it! Where are TextMate's bundle settings stored? I used Time-Machine to restore the preferences file and the bundle package from a back up, but this did not restored it. Please help, dZ.

Closing an open file in tab overflow?

by Joe Lapp

How do I close a file that is open but that doesn't have a tab because too many other files are open with tabs? These are the files that appear when you click on the double-arrow to the right of the tabs. I keep clicking on the window's close button and closing all my files. (Grrr!) Ideally, when I'm editing a file, its tab would appear at the top of the window, displacing some other tab, so that I have an X button to click and a clearer picture of what file I'm editing. I'm in a habit of looking at the tab for the name of the file, but it's only sometimes there. I know it's consistently in the window's title line; because it's usually in the tab, I'm not making a habit of looking at the title line. Thanks for your help! ~joe

Textmate cannot find Ruby gems

by Cary Swoveland

I need help getting Textmate to find gems. I've spent quite a bit of type researching the problem, but being new to both OS X (Snow Leopard) and the use of Ruby gems, I can't seem to figure out what the problems are. Many others have had similar problems, but their solutions don't seem to fix my problems. (Among other things, I did read Section 8--Shell Commands--of the Textmate manual.) I expect it largely has to do with the setting of environmental variables, but that's just a guess. A secondary--and no doubt related--problem is that Ruby cannot find the gem active-record when invoked in a terminal (or in irb), as shown below. I've tried entering a TM_PATH shell variable in Textmate preferences, but that hasn't helped. Here are some possible clues. No doubt I have provided some unnecessary information and have left out important information. I recently used RVM (Ruby Version Manager) to reinstall Ruby. From a terminal I then ran gem install xml-simple gem install sqlite3 gem install activerecord They all appeared to install OK. Then I wrote the following short script (test.rb): ************ #!/usr/local/bin/ruby # Ruby 1.9.2 require 'rubygems' print 'Gem.path = ' puts Gem.path print 'ruby_description = ' puts RUBY_DESCRIPTION require 'xmlsimple' require 'sqlite3' require 'active-record' ************* When I run test.rb in a terminal I get: ************* MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ ruby test.rb Gem.path = /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0 /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global ruby_description = ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0] <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require': no such file to load -- activerecord (LoadError) from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require' from test.rb:12:in `<main>' ************* When I run Ruby test.rb from within Textmate (cntrl-r), I get: ************* Gem.path = /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1 ruby_description = ruby 1.9.2dev (2010-07-02 revision 28524) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0] LoadError: no such file to load — sqlite3 method require in test.rb at line 11 method <main> in test.rb at line 11 copy output ************* (If I have <require 'active-record'> before <require 'sqlite3'>, I get the same message, with 'active-record' substituted for 'sqlite3'.) Notice that xmlsimple was found when running test.rb from a terminal, but not with cntrl-r in Textmate. See below (near the end) where I think Textmate found xmlsimple. Next I ran irb: ************* MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ irb /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/irb:4: warning: Insecure world writable dir /Users/cary in PATH, mode 040777 ruby-1.9.2-p0 > RUBY_DESCRIPTION => "ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0]" ruby-1.9.2-p0 > Gem.path => ["/Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0", "/Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global"] ruby-1.9.2-p0 > require 'xmlsimple' => true ruby-1.9.2-p0 > require 'sqlite3' => true ruby-1.9.2-p0 > require 'active-record' LoadError: no such file to load -- active-record from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require' from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require' from (irb):1 from /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/irb:17:in `<main>' (ibr's message, "warning: Insecure world writable dir /Users/cary in PATH, mode 040777" is something I should look into as well.) ************* (It makes no difference if I precede the above with <'require rubygems'>.) and then back at a terminal: ************* MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ ruby -v ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0] MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ which ruby /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/ruby MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ echo $PATH /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin: /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global/bin: /Users/cary/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin: /Users/cary/.rvm/bin:/usr/local/bin: /usr/local/sbin: /usr/local/mysql/bin: /usr/bin:/bin: /usr/sbin: /sbin: /usr/local/bin: /usr/X11/bin MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ ls /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0 bin cache doc gems specifications MacBook-Pro-2:~ cary$ ls /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/gems activerecord-3.0.0 arel-1.0.1 ffi-0.6.3 rake-0.8.7 tzinfo-0.3.23 activesupport-3.0.0 builder-2.1.2 i18n-0.4.1 sqlite3-0.1.1 xml-simple-1.0.12 MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ ls /Users/cary/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@global/gems MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ MacBook-Pro-2:economics101 cary$ ls /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems libxml-ruby-1.1.4 xml-simple-1.0.12 ************* The last line suggests to me that, from Textmate, Ruby is using an old version of xlm-simple.

After update of latexmk, TextMate is still using some old version

by Marius Hofert

Dear TextMate users, I work with textmate 1.5.8 (1505) under Mac OS X 10.6.2. I installed the latest version of latexmk (version 4.11) and tested it in the terminal, works like a charm. I then tried to compile a .tex document with latexmk via TextMate. If I click the button "Show Latexmk.pl Messages" I can see which version of latexmk is used. It turns out that some old version is used (version 3.21j of 2 December 2007). After that I changed the variable "TM_LATEX_COMPILER" explicitly from "latexmk.pl" to "/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/scripts/latexmk/latexmk.pl" --- still the old version is used. I have no idea where this old version is located and how I can force TextMate to use the new one. The new one is correctly installed, I can use "latexmk foo.tex" from everywhere on my system. How can I tell TextMate to use the correct version of latexmk? Cheers, Marius

"Scratchpad" memory in TextMate?

by Charles Turner

Hi all- I'm writing a command where it would be really great to preserve a string for later use by other commands. I'm assuming there no way to define a environment variable (like LAST_STAMP or something) that could be set from a command, would persist, and could be read from a later invocation of another command? Any other kind of scratchpad memory that I could take advantage of? (I realize I could write a small file somewhere.) Many thanks in advance! Charles

Bundles. How to: enable IDE style autocomplete ( function name + parameter snippets )

by Aldo Bucchi

Hi, I have a list of functions ( thousands ) for a certain proprietary language and I would like to enable some sort of autocomplete in textmate but that works similar to Eclipse's, IDEA's, etc. in that it allows you to 1. Search or autocomplete 2. Once you select the method, you get a "snippet" template so you can tab around the parameters I imagine lots of people have tried this and I am also afraid that there is no simple solution. What's the best path here? FYI. The library consists of around 2000 functions. Regards, A -- Aldo Bucchi @aldonline skype:aldo.bucchi http://aldobucchi.com/

Mail-Markdown-HTML-Mail error

by Christopher Eliot

I thought this workflow should work, but it’s running into trouble: I open a new message in Apple Mail. I type the keyboard command for Edit in TextMate. I write a simple document in Markdown. I use the Markdown bundle command to convert to HTML. I use the Mail bundle command Send HTML as email via mail. I get “Syntax Error: Expected end of line but found property (-2741)" Problem seems to occur whatever the language grammar is set to. I’m using TM version 1.5.9, with updated bundles. I didn’t find a mention of this in the archive. Thanks very much for any suggestions about a fix or a better workflow.

Re: Change caret width

by Daniel Geese

Hello, thanks for the help, I have tried yoursuggestions and it helps. But maybe it could be put in the next version as a possible feature, it would be useful for people writing texts in textmate, especially when using a screenwriting mode. Best, Daniel Is there a possibility to change the width of the caret so that it would appear to be a blinking rectangular? _______________________________________________ Not that I know of, but you might at least try to turn on the "highlight current line" preference: go to Preferences General tab Check "Visual Ornaments: Highlight current line" You can then move over to the Fonts & Colors tab and pick a background color for the current line. Also, the shortcut Command-L is good for centering the current line vertically in your window (if it's possible). Between those two, I can usually find my current line. I realize that's only one dimension, and you were hoping for two. I don't know of anything to help you locate the current column, short of doing something manual, like pressing Shift-RightArrow to make a selection that would stand out. Not what you were after, but that's the most hope I can offer. I betcha, if challenged properly, one of the wunderkinds of this list like Hans or Ciarán can whip together a plug-in that does just what you're looking for. But that task is not for me. +dru
