Language Definition Inheritance/Injection (Shoulda/Rails bundle)

by Gabe da Silveira

Even though I'm #1498 I have to admit I'm quite a bundle newbie. One of the issues that I recently came across was that the Shoulda Bundle was not recognizing "context" and "should" blocks within test classes. This is important, because the symbol navigation is extremely useful for these. At first I thought there was maybe a conflict or something else going on, but when I moved these blocks into the root scope of the file they worked. I realized that the shoulda language was built on source.ruby.rails, which meant it wasn't being picked up inside source.ruby.rails.meta.rails.unit_test or source.ruby.rails.meta.rails.functional_test. I solved this problem by adding: { include = 'source.ruby.rails.shoulda'; }, to those definitions within the Rails bundle. However I feel dirty. First, because I'm hacking the Rails bundle to make another bundle work. This seems like it will make upgrading complicated since I don't imagine there is any kind of granularity with language updates. Secondly, it feels wrong for the Rails bundle to define an include of a language that is descended from the Rails bundle itself. Apparently TextMate handles this properly because it works fine, but it was a red flag for me. So I guess my question is am I doing this wrong? What do the bundle gurus have to say on the matter? -- Gabe da Silveira http://darwinweb.net

Re: Things to avoid

by brad tittle

The thing that caused the problem was -- "Edit each line in selection." I was able to edit the file without any problem by just doing a search and replace. I don't know specifically how edit each line in selection works, but I suspect that it involves quite a few Allocs, Like one for each line, possibly quite a few more for each line. I was just putting out a warning that you shouldn't edit the entire file with "Edit each line in selection". It could have just been my computer, but I suspect that I was abusing this wonderful feature into something Allan didn't imagine it to be used to do, because as an expert in line management he would never have gone down the path I did. I was just appending ",END_NOTE" to each line. This happened on a Dual Xeon Core 2 Duo Mac Pro with 1GB of ram ( inherited from our graphics guy who doesn't want to learn FCP).

Web preview and root-relative paths

by Gianni

In my html files I use root-relative paths such as: <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/screen.css" type="text/css" /> The Web Preview does not work even though the path is also relative to the top level of the project, I have to use paths relative to the current document. <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/screen.css" type="text/css" /> Is there some way to get Web Preview to work with root-relative paths for html development? -Gianni

Theming help

by leif halvard silli

Hi. Some questions w.r.t. getting themes to work as I prefer: Firstly, the manual says [1] that "markup.heading.2.html" can be used in a language grammar. And then subsequently one may use that as a selector in a Theme. I have tried to use the mentioned selector in a theme made entirely from scratch, but whatever color I add for that selector, nothing happens to the styling of the <h2> tags or anything. Do I need to update the language grammar for HTML in order to get it to work or what? Secondly, Brilliance Black seems to be one of the richest themes arround, with colors for many languages. It has a HTML section. And below that it has a "markup" section. The markup selection has e.g. "markup.heading" and "markup.bold". I assumed that "markup.bold" would turn <b>text/</b> into bold face. But, no - doesn't happen. I have misunderstood something? Thirdly: Ideally, what I would like to see was a theme were the /text/ changed styling, more than the tags/code around the text. But TextMate appears to only be able to have one color for text, namely that of the "Foreground" color. Am I right? I hope not. Put on an edge, I would much rather have a permant color for tags etc, but differing colors for text, depending of the context. Can TextMate do this? Or may I just forget it at once? (I have used TextMate for a 2-3 years, but I only used the installed themes. And there are many things with it that I have not taken advantage of.)

Working with "$DIALOG", nib and shell

by Matthew Richmond

Greetings TextMate mailing list. Forgive me if this is child's play, i searched the list archives thoroughly before posting. I am trying (for many hours now) to open a .nib file created in Interface Builder using the "$DIALOG" command from a shell script. My general objective is identical to the screencast Allan created in 2006 (http://tinyurl.com/df3m9r). - Open a .nib file - Wait for user to close nib or hit a ok button - pass default parameters to the .nib - capture user input from the .nib to be used later in the .sh file. Currently i am trying to accomplish this with: "$DIALOG" nib --load ~/Desktop/Test2.nib --center --model '{ classPath = "foo"; }' --parameters '{}' That usually opens the .nib window, when i close the window all i get is an integer. Then it usually stops working all together, no matter how many time i try and execute the line of code (control - R) nothing happens, i have tried what Allan suggests in the post "So either press ⌃D to “close” stdin, or give -p '{}' as argument, and things should work as expected." And i cant get it to work, if i trash TextMate prefs and reinstall, it works for a bit more. I am not yet as familiar with Ruby as i would like to be and i have an immediate need to implement this within an existing bundle using shell. The screencast made it look so nice and easy...

Recursive parsing?

by Andreas Pardeike

Hi, last time I asked, this wasn't possible and I did not follow the latest development. So here's my question again: I have a custom html/php dialect. It contains of regions of code that is either html markup or php code. <php>...</php> and <htm>...</htm> Inside a php region, you can use <htm> and inside a markup region, you can use <php> which leads to recursive a structure that is very helpful for programming (at least for me) but harder to colorize, fold or autocomplete correctly. More complex example (outmost default is html markup): <html> <head> <php> echo convert($title); </php> <style> ..... </style> </head> <php> init(); </php> <body> Result: <php> if($someflag) <htm> <table border="0"> <php> foreach $row ($rows) { <htm><tr><td></htm> echo $row; <htm></td></tr></htm> } </php> </table> </htm> </php> </body> </html> Can I customize Textmate so its html and php modules identify my regions? /Andreas Pardeike

Use begin marker of a scope to end the previous one

by Pierre Morel

Hello, I'm trying to enhance the Matlab bundle. Especially by trying to make matlab and texmate to interact (shortcut to launch a script etc...). And I must say I'm pretty bad with shell scripts and regular expressions. I've nevertheless managed to do that, and now I'm trying to recreate matlab "cell mode" : matlab source files are scripts, and it is possible to divide the script in "cells". When you are in the (awful) matlab editor, you can run the current cell just with cmd+enter. This is very useful. The problem is that the cell separator is just a line like this : %% Title of the new cell ...That's it, there is no ending marker for a cell : the current cell ends where the new one starts ! What I've done now is creating a new "cell" scope delimited by these lines, but as soon as one "%% ...." line is used to mark the end of a scope, it can't be used to start the following one. Here's my descriptor. contentName = 'meta.cell.matlab'; begin = '%%.*$\n'; end = '%%.*$\n'; captures = { 0 = { name = 'meta.celltitle.matlab'; }; }; patterns = ( # Here I include all the other scope descriptors, because they can be contained in a cell ! ) For my solution to work, I then have to use two of these "%% ..." lines, one to end the previous cell scope, and one to start the new one. This means matlab files need to be modified to work, which is not so good ! Do you have an idea on how to solve this problem ? A linked problem (but less important) is that I can't get code folding to work with cells : a start marker can't be the same as an end marker. Thank you !

(LoadErrors)

by dmp

Hello, When accessing various bundle features I get (LoadErrors). This is on 10.3.9 using 1.5.7 (1436). On 10.4.9 same version, no errors. First question, is this version 10.3.9 functional. I could not find anything in the notes or on the site. If this is not a 10.3 issue then these are the errors I have been receiving: This is the Error I get issue php-help: /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/web_preview.rb:1:in `require': No such file to load -- erb (LoadError) from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/web_preview.rb:1 env: ruby -wKU: No such file or directory I also the this error when issue html tidy: env: ruby -wKU: No such file or directory I get both the above from numerous commands. I searched the thread, and based upon what I can find, I believe my environment variables are correct. One guess is an issue with this could be a result of an older Ruby install: 10.3.9 uses Ruby ver. 1.6.8; 10.4.9 uses 1.8.2. One post referenced a ruby test: feed these lines to Terminal do you see this output? ===== $ /usr/bin/ruby -r erb -e 'p url_encode("a test")' -e:1: undefined method `url_encode' for main:Object (NoMethodError) $ /usr/bin/ruby -r cgi -e 'p CGI.escape("a test")' "a+test" my results: $ /usr/bin/ruby -r erb -e 'p url_encode("a test")' /usr/bin/ruby: No such file to load -- erb (LoadError) But the suggestion confused me. Suggestions? Thank You, dmp

Things to avoid

by brad tittle

Another example of something to avoid, aka things textMate really wasn't designed for. -- Open a large file (mine was > 7000 lines) -- Select the entire file -- Edit each line in selection -- start typing. This brought the computer to its knees. My bad. Just thought y'all could have a laugh at my expense. There are, of course, at least a dozen other ways to do what I started to do: Filter through command, Command, Search and replace ( $ with [replacement value]), etc Tschuss, Brad Tittle Tech Support

problem with project plus and git: commits not properly recognized

by Max Lein

I'm using git to keep different versions and branches of my projects in repositories. Unfortunately, Project Plus does not properly recognize files that git watches as well as the status of files that it (correctly) recognizes as part of my git repository. I am using `freely' managed projects, i. e. those you can create via File > New Project and drag files into. I do not (want to) drag my whole project folder onto the TextMate icon. If I do that, Project Plus correctly labels the status of my files (part of repository or not, modified or not modified). The problem is not just cosmetic, I've discovered that files which Project Plus does not properly recognize are not part of commits! The solution is that you need to move the location of a file (e. g. by reshuffling or so), then, apparently, Project Plus updates the properties of all files. Is this a known problem? Max

Re: how can I make TextMate the default editor for text files on 10.5.6

I agree completely about the resource fork. I'm afraid my comment was confusing and it seemed like I longed for the days of resource forks getting lost when you transferred files across platforms. (I'd be just as happy to be rid of the extension.) And I filed my first bug report with Apple. > Make a column selection of the desired width (and with desired indent) > then hit ?Q and TM will reflow the paragraph to be ?in a box?. Doh! I knew that and had forgotten it. I feel like such a punk now. (I'd still like to automate the process, but I want to try to do it myself.)

Run code in TM

by Scott Haneda

I am starting to use cmd-Shift-R a lot more to run code through TM in it's window. Very nice. For quick one off shell scripts I am finding it invaluable. I have a few issues. There are more times for me where I am working in php and I want the output to be html'ized. I see a raw <br /> over a rendered one. I end up putting in a lot of \n's and such to get somewhat readable. Is there any way to toggle the mode on how it deals with this? Second is control-H, which I use a lot to get to docs in php, this is suer handy, and I bet it uses webkit to do it's secret little deed. However, One function may lead me to another, as there are links in the window. But there is no back button. Is there any way to get more standard browser buttons in this window? Or heck, I would be happy to have it just use Safari. The TM pop up seems to always be set to sort of work like target="_blank" and spawn a new window, which clutters me up some, and I end up with 20 windows hiding around. I would like control-h to replace windows. Thanks -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

git from the Bundle menu works, but CTRL+SHIFT+G...

As the subject line begins: git from the Bundle menu works (as does working from the CLI), but CTRL+SHIFT+G... gives me the following tool tip pop-up: /tmp/temp_testmate.AQcVtg:26:in `open': No such file or directory - pages (Errno::ENOENT) from /tmp/temp_testmate.AQcVtg:26:in `entries' from /tmp/temp_testmate.AQcVtg:26 "AQcVtg" above is variable. Everything else remains the same. The short version of my question is: what's wrong and how do I fix it? TM has made me a lazy man, reliant upon keyboard shortcuts.

Command writing help

by John Laudun

Hello all. I'm trying to figure out a way to write a command that will take a selected block of soft-wrapped text, hard-wrap it to a given length, and then indent a given number of spaces. I do a lot of writing using Markdown, and I would like to find a way to make bulleted lists more clearly marked as such while in plain text mode. None of the current options under the TEXT menu do what I want. I don't need the command to ask for the wrap length or the spaces to be indented, I'm happy to adjust that within the command itself -- once I get what I want, I won't fool with it for months if not years. If someone could even point me in the right direction, I'd be happy to try to hack at something on my own, but I honestly don't know where to start. john -- John Laudun laudun(a)louisiana.edu http://johnlaudun.org/ Twitter/Facebook/Flickr: johnlaudun

Re: how can I make TextMate the default editor for text files on 10.5.6

by John Laudun

In Bill's defense, I have long had this problem with the Finder. If I create a file in Textmate but assign it no extension, a blank document icon is assigned the file and the default application -- no matter how hard you try to change it through the Finder -- to open the file is always TextEdit. As many people have pointed out, this is indeed a Finder problem, but it makes it no less frustrating for users who do not wish to have extensions on text files. (In the old days, wasn't that what the resource fork was for? And wasn't the promise of the modern OSes to dispense with the file extension system?) john

Is there a limited heap or stack for running ruby in textmate?

by rburrowes

I get the following error running a ruby program in Textmate, but it works fine running it from the command line. The program creates a lot of strings, and slightly reducing this just slightly makes the error go away. I get this in Textmate ... 2 DATE 11 Jan 2001 at top level in 3 TIME 15 at line 56 1 RIN 13 but this on the command line (which is correct) ... 2 DATE 11 Jan 2001 3 TIME 15:56:49 1 RIN 13 Oddly, if I "puts s.reverse" in textmate, I get the right output too (reversed of course:). I also don't get the error if I print to a file, rather than printing to the Textmate output window (and I'm only printing out a very short segment of text from the program). s = f.to_gedcom puts s #output window copy gives the error (before File.open). File.open('/tmp/xx.txt','w') { |fd| fd.print s } #file copy is correct puts s #output window copy gives the error (and also after File.open) So is there a heap or stack size issue running ruby from textmate? Any other guesses at what is happening?

Macro: execute cmd A after end of cmd B

by Mathieu Godart

Dear all, I'm doing a very simple test every morning and sometimes more often: run SVN update on my work dir (let's call that command A) and then update the tag index of this source code (let's call that command B). And I wanted to create a macro to do that. The problem is that the macro launches the command A and launches command B without waiting the end of command A. Do you have an idea on how to automatize this (long to run) task with a macro. I could probably do that with a command, but it would be cheating. Thanks.

Custom highlighting in latex

by curiouslearn

I had earlier asked a question about how to have the textmate editor highlight the footnotes in my latex document. Link: http://www.nabble.com/Highlighting-in-Textmate---Latex-to20379168.html#a203… I had two very good responses to that question about how to find the scope and how to modify the preferences. For footnotes, the scope was meta.footnote.latex Now I am using a package called "changes" in latex, which defines commands like \added, \deleted and so on for tracking changes. I want to highlight anything that appears in the braces in \added{}. Using the method suggested in the above post I found the scope as meta.group.braces.tex. But this scope is common to many other pair of braces (for example, subscripts, superscripts, \vspace{} etc.) and it highlights all those too. How can I have the editor just highlight something that appears between \added{}. Thanks very much. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Custom-highlighting-in-latex-tp22727134p22727134.html Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Escaping a selection

by Scott Haneda

How can I escape certain chars in a selection in TM? If this is not built in, can someone help me make a macro or equivalent to do so? Example: echo "<a href="untitled.html" id="name" class="name" target="_self">test</a>"; I would select the entire line, it would be smart enough to know the language from the string. echo "<a href=\"untitled.html\" id=\"name\" class=\"name\" target= \"_self\">test</a>"; I have a feeling there is probably something built in that can help me, but I am just not finding it. -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

Suggestion for Subversion bundle

by Tommy Nordgren

It would be useful with a command "Diff selected directory with Version ...", that would generate a diff for ALL versioned files in selected directory. ----------------------------------- See the amazing new SF reel: Invasion of the man eating cucumbers from outer space.

What's the status of applying VI keyboard mappings to TextMate?

by Scott Smith

I'm newly coming back to the Mac after a long hiatus (late 1980's as a developer); been Windows in the interim. I still have to work periodically in Windows boxes and am somewhat forlorn at the layout of the navigation keys on the Mac (as in most laptops). This is where VI shines; the navigation can be accomplished in the "center" of the keyboard where key layouts are consistent. David Wooten maps a single key (http://lists.macromates.com/textmate/2006-January/007683.html) and Kirk Fitzpatrick was attempting a plugin ( http://lists.macromates.com/textmate-plugins/2007-January/000022.html). Anyone figure out anything like what VI has or have any ideas? I'm considering building something that intercepts keystrokes right out of the operating system so that TextMate has to know very little. Thanks in advance, -- Scott Smith - Old Fart Developer With privilege comes responsibility, with responsibility comes accountability, with accountability comes honesty, with honesty comes faithfulness.

TextMate file browser over sshfs

by Tom Robinson

I started a project I call "ropen", which is like OS X's "open" or TextMate's "mate" commands, but works remotely by automatically mounting the remote filesystem locally using MacFuse's sshfs: http://github.com/tlrobinson/ropen/tree/master It works quite well, except when you try to open a large directory tree in TextMate. It seems like TextMate is trying to walk the entire tree immediately when it's opened. Doing this over the network is very slow and ends up hanging TextMate for moderately sized directory trees. Is there any possibility of changing the behavior to lazily do whatever initialization TextMate needs to do when opening directories? Thanks, Tom

injecting arguments into a function

by Scott Haneda

I have seen others do this, I can not find any docs on it. In php, I have seen someone type in array_keys() and somehow, they are able, in that completion, or at a later time, get it to insert the template arguments: array_keys ( array $input [, mixed $search_value [, bool $strict= false]] ) -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

Opening files on a netwok

by brad tittle

This qualifies as "Well, if you don't like kicking yourself in the nose, why don't you stop doing it?" kind of suggestion. When I open a network drive location and double click on the folder, it opens. Yes, if I just click on it and then click on the sub folder I really want it works exactly as it is supposed to. This isn't a bug. This is just me telling the world that I am incapable of instantly changing the way I use my flippin mouse. The real answer lies in doing a bunch of other things correctly, I just haven't started doing them that way yet. The only bug here is that because i double clicked on a large directory, textMate basically locks up (because it is processing a lot of files over a network connection and even though all CS guys are constantly trying to avoid N^2, it keeps coming back to bite us!). Anyone ever try to open a large spreadsheet (say anything over 6,000 rows) in Numbers. NOT A FUN thing. -- Brad Tittle Tech Support

Shell Script Syntax Highlighting in Case statements

by Colin Wilson

Hello All, I believe I have found a bug in the syntax highlighting for shell scripts. When I have a comment in a case statement and the comment does not get highlighted correctly. Here is the text for my case statement: #first figure out what platform you are in, based on the uname -rs KERNELVERSION=`uname -rs` case $KERNELVERSION in #linux returns "Linux kernelversionnumber" Linux* ) OSTYPE="linux";; #freeBSD returns "freeBSD releaseversion" *BSD* ) OSTYPE="bsd";; #osX returns "Darwin kernelversionnumber" Darwin* ) OSTYPE="macos";; #everything else * ) OSTYPE="unknown";; esac also here is a link to a picture of what I am seeing on my screen: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3575/3410707546_d7a2a67e49_o.png Im not sure if this is even helpful but pastebins highlighting seems to do the same as textmate but quickhighlighter.com seems to get it correctly(what I assume is correct). Thanks for your help. --Colin

How to edit Actionscript3 Templates?

by warek

When I edit a Template it stops working even when I edit just one tiny letter in an out-commented text. I do the following: in the 'bundle editor' I expand the 'Project' Template and then I select the 'Project.as'. Here I placed the opening curly braces to be at the same line as the function (and not at the next line). public function ${TM_NEW_FILE_BASENAME}() { When I close the window and try to make a new project from template nothing happens. Even when I revert my changes it won't work anymore, I have to reinstall the whole bundle! As said I also tried just to change a tiny letter in outcommented section of _create_as3_project.sh with the same result. What is the proper way of editing a Template? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-edit-Actionscript3-Templates--tp22677253p22677… Sent from the textmate users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

odd behavior with Makefile bundle on different computer

by Brian Staszewski

I use the Makefile bundle on my desktop and never had any issues so I when I put it on my laptop I was a little puzzled when running Build produced this output: env: ruby\r\rrequire: No such file or directory Ruby is most definitely in TM's path, and checking the path from within TM on both machines shows that they are exactly the same. Both machines are running Leopard with the same version of ruby, same gems, and same version of TM installed. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brian

Refresh running browsers

by Scott Haneda

Hello, I just started using command-R to refresh in running browsers. I find it only refreshes the front most browser window. Is this normal? I seem to be fighting this behavior, though command-R is so handy I want to use it. Perhaps it could be modified to work better. If I have a few windows, and a few tabs, move to TM, command-R, it will switch to Safari in this case, and refresh whatever is the front most window and tab within that window. I now have to remember to bring the window forward that has the result of the code I am working on to the foreground. I think for me, a better behavior would be for command-R to spawn a new browser window, with the code ran in that window. I can then close the window, and be back in TM. This way, my window is always going to be the one used. Has anyone else found this mildly annoying and looked for a solution? I can always go back to the command-tab to the window I want method, and press reload in the browser. I have tried the command-shift-R method, but I have a feeling that since I am working on remote files through a ftp/ssh app, it is not going to work. It also does not interpret html, and shows me the raw html code, so that method seems more designed for cli type scripts, or code that does not end up outputting to a browser.

Remove trailing spaces and tabs

by Scott Haneda

Hello, I found a .tmMacro file someone put up, it will allow me to remove trailing spaces and tabs on save. Works nice, for one flaw. If I have any text selected, that selected text is replaces with what seems to be the contents of the entire file. I can not figure out how to even edit the .tmMacto once installed. I can put the cursor in the bundle editor area, but it will not allow any chances. I can not open the .tmMacro file in TM, so I could use the shell, but that seems strange, and it is a plist, and not entirely sure what to edit. The Macro has two commands executeCommandWithOptions { beforeRunningCommand = nop; command = "perl -pe 's/[\\t ]+$//g'"; input = document; output = replaceSelectedText; } executeCommandWithOptions { beforeRunningCommand = saveActiveFile; input = none; output = discard; } * I can sort of hack this out on my own by making a empty command, then recording a macro to and hooking those two together. The above seems cleaner though. Any ideas what I should edit? The perl seems fine, a direct copy from the TM built in to remove spaces and tabs, maybe the output = replaceSelectedText; needs changing? -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

html output of Java/Python Run command disordered (executor problem?)

by Sebastian Röder

Hi all, I am new to textmate and Java/Python programming. When I run my code with the textmate run command, there seems to be a problem with the order of output in html. This problem seems not to be bundle specific (both Java and Python bundle show the same problem) so I guess it is in the underlying executor script. The bundles and support dir are fresh SVN checkouts. Example code: guess.py import random secret = random.randint(1, 99) guess = 0 i = 0 while guess != secret: guess = input("Make a guess (0 to quit): ") if guess == 0: print "Program quit" break elif guess > secret: print "to big" elif guess < secret: print "to small" i = i + 1 else: print "Congratulations, you guessed right after",i ,"tries." Example output: order is: prompt -> program output -> input Make a guess (0 to quit): to small 1 Make a guess (0 to quit): to small 2 Make a guess (0 to quit): to small 3 Make a guess (0 to quit): to small 4 Make a guess (0 to quit): Output order should be: prompt -> input -> program output I'd like to use textmate in my cs cources starting soon and it would be great if the html output had the right order, so I can hand it out to the teacher as a proof for my working code. At the moment this would be rather confusing and lead to some discussions I guess.

can TextMate (ruby) lose its mind?

by Matt Neuburg

This really just happened to me. Really. I know I produced some April Fools jokes yesterday, but that was yesterday. This is real. I created this Ruby script in TextMate: s = "wackamole" puts s I ran it, and the RubyMate output window displayed: woe Weird, eh? And it is part of a longer story; the string "wag wag" was being displayed as "w w", and the string "ruff ruff" was being displayed as empty. (Never mind why I was testing those strings.) I quit TextMate, restarted my computer, and everything is back to normal. But would anyone like to suggest a cause for what happened? Cosmic rays? Belated April Fools day easter-egg-type joke?? The conficker virus??? Has anyone else ever seen anything like this? m. PS The problem was presumably with TextMate, not with ruby, because using the Terminal to run the same script (as a saved text file) using the "ruby" command worked just fine. -- matt neuburg, phd = matt(a)tidbits.com, <http://www.tidbits.com/matt/> A fool + a tool + an autorelease pool = cool!

Select Bundle Item customizations

by Scott Haneda

Hello, I find that TM has too many keyboard shortcuts for my brain to be able to retain and be useful to me. I have developed a habit that I use in all apps, which is to use apple help, command-Shift-? will bring up the help menu in the app. I can type a few words, and it will show me the menu item I need. Return and it is executed. Or I can traverse the real menu structure. I use this in all apps, it is handy to me. TM apparently crashes a lot when I do this. I am now looking to use the "Select Bundle Item", but it is too aggressive about what it finds. Enter in the single letter "E" and it finds all bundle items that contain a singe E. I am looking to limit it to contains characters of at least three characters for a match. In the help search method, if I type "br" it brings up 6 items to pick from. In the "Select Bundle Item" it beings up about 25 or so. Any suggestions? Over time, I am sure this is going to force me to learn more of these, but the apple help method was gread for those one time uses where you will not use the command again for a long time. It also goes beyond the bundle items, and I could toggle freehand edit mode, for example, something I rarely do, and just do not want to bother committing to memory. -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ *

Command to insert text in different Textmate window

by Pierre Morel

Hello, I'm working on a "matlab console" bundle, à la "R console bundle". The goal is to emulate a matlab console in a textmate window, which is much more practical than the terminal to edit long commands. This is so far working quite well, running matlab in the background and sending/receiving messages via text files. However, when I have a matlab script opened in a textmate window, I want to be able to execute it in the textmate window where the matlab console lies. I thought of doing that with applescript, but the dictionary of textmate seems pretty poor, there is no way of handling tabs for example. So what I want to be able to do is a run a command from a window that write its results in a different textmate window or tab (which has a specific name, something like "Console.Mcon"). Is this possible ? and how ? Thanks Pierre
