[TextMate] commands and parsing output

by Brian Lalor

I'm trying to work up a command to call ant with for my Java bundle. I'm confused by the dual-pane window that's displayed. The bottom looks to be just the entire output of the command with line numbers in the gutter. The top I just don't grok, however. It may be that I'm completely missing the point of the command output window; if so, please set me straight. :-) Does the pattern matching expect every single line to match the pattern? For example: /path/to/file:1: error on line 1 /path/to/file:2: warning on line 2 "ant -emacs" has output like this: >>>>begin [...] compile: Compiling 1 source file to /Users/blalor/devel/java/portal/ConsumerCustomCommands/build /Users/blalor/devel/java/portal/ConsumerCustomCommands/src/com/ deltafaucet/portal/commands/profile/AprimoAccountListener.java:30: cannot resolve symbol symbol : class Foo location: class com.deltafaucet.portal.commands.profile.AprimoAccountListener private static Foo bar = new Baz(); ^ /Users/blalor/devel/java/portal/ConsumerCustomCommands/src/com/ deltafaucet/portal/commands/profile/AprimoAccountListener.java:30: cannot resolve symbol symbol : class Baz location: class com.deltafaucet.portal.commands.profile.AprimoAccountListener private static Foo bar = new Baz(); ^ <<<<end I'm not sure what the command output window is trying to accomplish... I've got my command set up like this: Before running command: Save modified files in project Command(s): ant -s build.xml -emacs Standard input: None Standard output: Show in separate window Pattern: ^(/[^:]+):(\d+):(.*)$ Format string: $3 File register: 1 Line: 2 Column: This causes the command window to look like this: I would expect that the top part of the window would only show the lines that matched the regexp, at a minimum, but I really think it should perhaps highlight the line, make it clickable (to jump to the source), etc. I think what's needed (for compiles, anyway) is to have the command output displayed in a pane in the project window (say, at the bottom) and display each line of output from the command. Each line that matches the regexp should appear in a different color, and, if the line, and possibly column, are given as registers, the top part of the project window should jump to the line and file, leaving the lower pane in place. I tend to keep my code windows up so that they take up most of the screen real estate (especially with the project drawer open). The command window really gets in the way. But I think it's a step in the right direction, because I want to be able to jump to a line in the file. -- __ ____ / / / __/ Brian Lalor / _ \/__ \ blalor(a)bravo5.org /_.__/____/ http://bravo5.org/

[TextMate] [ANN] improved C/C++/Objective-C[++] highlighting

by Chris Thomas

Slightly improved C/C++/Objective-C bundle: <http://www.cjack.com/tm/C.tmbundle.zip> * Keyword corrections for all languages. * Move to a more conventional black-on-white color scheme. * C++ inherits from C to make this more manageable. Although C++ is not a strict superset of C, the differences are extremely slight (for the purposes of TextMate, at least). * That's all for now. I'm happy to coordinate further improvements to the C bundle; you're also welcome to grab my changes and post your own version if you prefer. Highlighting could be further improved. There are a zillion useful macros and snippets to be written. Makefile syntax could be factored out into a "Unix" bundle, one that would also support the myriad shell scripting formats. Allan/Macromates folks, please consider including at least the keyword modifications in future versions of TextMate. Share and enjoy, Chris

[TextMate] ProFont

by Andrew Ellis

I'm trying to use Profont, but if I type an f followed by an i, the spacing goes crazy, ie. the letters move close together, but the cursor moves as if the spacing was normal. This happens only for f and i, and I haven't seen this in any other apps using ProFont. Is anyone else having the same problem? Thanks, Andrew

[TextMate] My little remarks on TextMate - Encodings, CJK Characters, Ligatures

by Vincent Isambart

Hello, First thanks to Allan for all the great work on TextMate ^o^. Sorry if any of you in the mailing list do not like long mails. If you do not want to read it, just jump to the next mail in you mail box ;-) And sorry for putting so many things in one mail, but one mail is easier to skip or remove than 3 or 4 ;-) So there are my list of remarks about TextMate. They do not mean that I do not like them program. On the contrary, I just want it to be even better ^o^. Feel free to criticize any of them (except the first one). First, I do not really care if the preferences are in there own dialog box or in the menus. In the menus, it has the advantage of being faster to change. But with the feature list that will certainly grow in the future, some things will certainly have to be put in a separate dialog box. (And no, do not reply to this paragraph, as it has already become a troll on this mailing list ;-)) 'Re-open with encoding' is great but the encodings list is quite short. UTF-32 is not even there. If someone works a little with Japanese text, he will need Shift-JIS and EUC-JP. Someone with Chinese text might want Big5. Even a westerner wanting to use the euro symbol might want ISO-8859-15. The best would be to be able to add or remove encodings in the list. The same thing would be great in the 'Save' dialog (the list should be the same in both places and be editable at both places). And adding it in the 'Open' dialog would be great too. Little bug : if we select 'other' in the View->Tabs Size menu, nothing happens. There should be a dialog box asking for the number of spaces you want. An other little problem I have is the drawing of CJK characters. These characters are wider than latin characters and as they are drawn today in TextMate, a character may overlap with the previous and next one. In terminals, this is generally handled by making them double-width. In SubEthaEdit, it is quite strange as they are not fixed size at all, some are larger than others. If you want any screenshot, example, just ask. Note that I am in no way good in Chinese, Japanese or Korean, I just made a few Ruby scripts to help me train my Japanese, and they do include some Japanese characters. For the ligatures problem, if it has not been corrected in the sources yet, it's quite easy to correct: If you want ATSUI not to use common english ligatures (fi, fl): ATSUFontFeatureType type = kLigaturesType; ATSUFontFeatureType selector = kCommonLigaturesOffSelector; ATSUSetFontFeatures(myATSUStyle, 1, &type, &selector); and if you do not want any type of ligature: ATSUFontFeatureType types[9] = { kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType, kLigaturesType }; ATSUFontFeatureType selectors[9] = { kRequiredLigaturesOffSelector, kCommonLigaturesOffSelector, kRareLigaturesOffSelector, kLogosOffSelector, kRebusPicturesOffSelector, kDiphthongLigaturesOffSelector, kSquaredLigaturesOffSelector, kAbbrevSquaredLigaturesOffSelector, kSymbolLigaturesOffSelector }; ATSUSetFontFeatures(myATSUStyle, 9, types, selectors); Some info there : http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Conceptual/ ATSUI_Concepts/atsui_app_features/chapter_9_section_15.html (be careful, the feature selector names on this web page are not all good) It will also disable ligatures for Hindi or Arabic script, but as TextMate's goal is not seem to be a multi-lingual editor... (but it would be great if it could at least manage the CJK characters well ;-)) Last thing: having a direct link to http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo or at least to the archives of the mailing list (http://one.textdrive.com/pipermail/textmate/) on TextMate's web page would really be great. I only found it after subscribing to the mailing list, in the mail asking for confirmation. Cheers, Vincent Isambart

[TextMate] {Feature Request} Interarchy edit file over sftp

by Simon Dorfman

Interarchy supports ediiting files over sftp. It would make me überhappy is TestMate would support this feature. I asked the Interarchy developer what details you would need to know to make this work. He replied with the links to the info below. I know you intend to support editing files over sftp with TextMate in version 1.1, but I like Interarchy and adding compatability to work with Interarchy looks pretty simple. So pretty please with sugar on top, add this feature. :-D Thanks, Simon ------ Forwarded Message From: Peter N Lewis <peter(a)stairways.com.au> Date: Thu, 7 Oct 2004 10:06:08 +0800 To: Simon Dorfman <Simon(a)SimonDorfman.com> Subject: Re: Edit with... TextMate >I want to ask the developer of a new text editor (TextMate macromates.com) >to support your "Edit with..." feature. What does he need to know to make >it jive with Interarchy? The details are at: http://www.merzwaren.com/external_editor.html and Bare Bones' original specification is at: http://www.barebones.com/support/developer/odbsuite.html If they drop me a line when it is implemented we'll be happy to add TexMate to our list of possible editors.

[TextMate] Yank not working

by Thaddeus J. Quintin

I just downloaded TextMate and am pretty happy with it. Since it is a Cocoa app, all of the standard MacOSX key bindings come with it! I've used emacs as a text editor for years and can't break away from the basic editing commands. I created my own TextMate keybinding file, as noted in the help section, and resolved an issue with '^f' not being bound to 'move cursor forward'. The only other thing that I can't seem to figure out is '^y'. When used with '^k' I should be able to 'kill' to the end of a line, then 'yank' that text out of the kill ring. It's a quick and dirty cut-and-paste option that's very much ingrained. I can't find any key bindings that override this behavior, but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas? Thaddeus

[TextMate] feature request: open in separate editor from project drawer

by Jeff Ganyard

Or whatever you want to call it, being able to open a file from the project drawer in a separate window. Sometimes I want to look at things side by side.

[TextMate] Tooltips on file names

by Drew McLellan

Some file names can be long, and others are deep in a folder structure. Where the width of the file draw doesn't allow for the full name of a file to be displayed, it would be handy to have a tooltip appear with the full file name. drew.
