Finally having a go at TM2 and I may have miss any tips on this in the past flurry of emails on this subject so sorry if it has already been posted. I've set up both alias' and symbolic links of directories I frequently use into a "Working" directory. However I find I can't keep that directory as the root (or home) directory. The alias/linked folders are not expandable. Clicking on them takes me to the original folder which makes setting up a "Working" directory less than useful.
Is there a .tm_properties I can set or another way to keep allow alias/links to drill down like a regular folder?

Hi all,
I was wondering whether something like the Live Web Preview
available in TextMate 1 will be present in TextMate 2?
I was (ab)using this functionality (and its `Pipe text
through (command)' option) to implement live LaTeX editing
and previewing with TextMate 1 (the preview would basically
update after every keystroke, no need to save the document).
This worked so well, it became my primary use case and killer
application for TextMate.
In TextMate 2, I noticed a `Show Web Preview' command in the
HTML bundle, but the preview would neither update automatically
nor is a `Pipe text through' option provided.
It would be more than sad to see this functionality go away...
Cheers and keep up the good work,

Hi All,
In TM1, this command:
mate path/to/dir1 path/to/dir2
used to open both dir1 and dir2 within the same TM main window
In TM2, this command:
mate path/to/dir1 path/to/dir2
opens two distinct windows, one for dir1, one for dir2
How to restore the behaviour from TM1?
Thanks.
Another unrelated question:
What is the rationale that defines where the textmate configuration is
set? For example, the antialias font settings is defined system-wide
with the user "defaults" command, while the font family is defined
within a .tm_properties file. From a very high level, this seems quite
weird - although I'm sure there is a good reason to do so, it does not
seem easy to remember where each setting should be set.
Cheers,
Manu
Hi all, I have the following line and nothing else in ~/.tm_properties :
softWrap = false
However, when I launch TM2 (with no documents previously open in the
workspace), it shows an untitled document with Soft Wrap enabled, set to
wrap at the window edge. Is that supposed to happen? If it is supposed to
happen, is there some other way to have soft wrap turned off by default?
Thanks!

Show Scope (HTML) in the "Bundle Development" bundle appears to be broken, it always displays an alert "Could not locate your theme file!" independent of the chosen theme.

Hi,
I heard that Michael Sheets is coordinating bundle development. Could you or somebody who knows some detail give a short information on the status and future of the LaTeX bundle for TM2.

Hi All,
Some observations and comments regarding the output window:
- It would be cool if each command could select it's placement (window, right, and consequently there should be left and bottom as choice as well, plus a choice to use a truly individual window instead of reusing the same output window). This could be handled via the "Output" drop down in the bundle editor.
- long running commands (I have an Xcode build & run command that produces "clickable" log messages) prevent switching to another 'tab' in the output window (eg the little arrows in the bottom left don't work)
- randomly a command seems to clobber another output window instead of opening a new 'tab', have not figured out the exact circumstances. Also maybe real 'tab's instead of just the little triangles at the bottom of the window.
- I often run multiple targets from the same project. With TM1 I simply had multiple output windows to track their output, TM2 no longer lets me do that: I can't have multiple windows, and it seems to only allow one task running at the same time.
- I seem to recall that in TM1 I could target a specific window by using a specific title, doesn't seem to work in TM2.

Hi,
Firstly, loving the new Find in Project interface, particularly the live preview for Replace All.
However, having a problem where Find All makes some really wacky selections. For example:
As it turns out, lines 90 and 94 can't possibly exist in this file—it only has 59 lines! If I re-run Find All it then selects the correct lines and marks them with a star in the gutter.
Consequently, if I run Replace All when the weird or non-existant lines are selected, I get some incredibly strange results, like my replacement text being inserted at a random place in a line I never selected.
This is a large project with 3000+ files and directories.
Is anyone else having problems like this?

Anyone else having trouble saving files on remote file systems using
macfusion sshfs?
On save I'm getting "The document could not be saved. Setting extended
attributes: Attribute not found" though the file is saved.
I tried the old "defaults write com.macromates.textmate
OakDocumentDisableFSMetaData 1" from TM1 but that didn't seem to work.
Any thoughts? I've got "Ignore Apple double Files" check in macfusion
which is probably causing the problem, but unchecking it makes things
much too slow when using macfusion.
Cheers
Alex
