What is the shortcut to select columns (block) of text? I'm using ⌥ and selecting with the mouse, but I would only use the keyboard. http://manual.macromates.com/en/working_with_text

How do I vary the C indentation?

by Berk Geveci

Hi folks, I work on several open-source projects (VTK, ParaView, CMake...) that follow a somewhat unusual indentation style. Instead of if (foo) { bar(); } bar(); they require if (foo) { bar; } bar() Getting the first curly indent right was trivial but I can't figure out how to reduce the indentation _after_ the closing curly. When the pattern matches decreaseIndentPattern, the current line's indentation is reduced. What I need is for the following line to be unindented. Is there any way to do this? Thanks, -berk

Allen, please take pity on my beloved poodle Jericho and her IBS. I think even a short update with maybe a thumbs up / thumbs down about how it's going would quell her digestive issues and get her appetite back. She's been coding and utilizing TextMate so much she can't get the thought of all those juicy new feature out of her mind. She barely even finishes both of her chili dogs anymore. Heartbreaking. Although I'm starting to think he has his spam filter set to exclude 'textmate 2' and 'tm2' automatically.... ;) OK I've got a question, is there any way I can temporarily disable or toggle auto-pairing of quotes (& etc) with a hot key? Sometimes I just want a single quote (etc) somewhere and it can get annoying to delete the paired character each time. Also, is TmCodeBrowser 1.11 the latest in "Show Classes, Functions, etc in a Tree Panel" technology we have right now? I would like something that shows more information (variables in functions, entire struct definitions), and can show/hide info without the mouse hovering over it (hate the mouse). If not I'll take a crack at patching up TmCodeBrowser into a 'good enough' solution until TextMate 2 arrives to make us muscular without exercise, gives our cars an extra 5 mpg (or kpl as it may be) in the city, and stops Jericho from ruining all my fancy Ikea rugs.

Re: Honest assessment of TM2's state please!

by Brandon M Fryslie

> Why are you looking for an alternative to something that does what you want in the first place? I think the point is that there are some issues with TM1. Like you said, there really isn't any alternative, but that shouldn't stop us from having a frank discussion about TextMate's (very few) shortcomings. I'm pretty sure everyone here absolutely adores TextMate, especially after seeing the spurt of activity here in the past few days. Since we are some of TextMate's largest fans, I think this is a somewhat appropriate place to discuss the future of TextMate (if not TextMate proper, then the bundle systems which can theoretically fill whatever gaps we need given enough elbow grease). Since there are only a few short messages from Allen himself over the past year, we can only discuss alternatives and what we would like to see updated/fixed, and wait for news. Given another year, maybe a competitor will be to an advanced enough stage that with some work it could become usable. One possible alternative could be E-TextEditor (http://www.e-texteditor.com/). The only problem is that it is Windows only...but I've used it and it seems to have very good support for all TextMate bundles (it uses Cygwin). That could be a possibility lacking any further news on the future of the real TextMate. Cheers Brandon

Re: Honest assessment of TM2's state please!

by Jon Marshall

As Apple product users, we all love and pay for two things. High quality and shiny new beautiful products. Our choice in hardware shows we all appreciate quality and beauty and are willing to pay for it. We all love TM because it's so fun to use and the reason we want a new, slightly different and better version is the same reason we all can't wait to buy Lion. We all want TM2 and that's fine. I imagine all the hardcore, 'use TM1 till the bitter end' types are old school UNIX hackers that could still break out vim or emacs and knock off a script if they had too, and that's just fine too (pretty cool actually). Another point worth making is, this situation is really strange. This can't be normal. But it is entertaining, so who cares right? There is an army of loyal TM users just waiting to shell out cash. So we must ask, why would there be such a delay and no response, with so many loyal customer? Companies and products and software disappear and stops being developed when customers stop supporting and that is the only reason. That is the only logical reason. Why doesn't the creator sell or license it somehow? There are so many ways to make money with a good idea or product and the kinds of people who invest in these things would be all over a product with this much support. So who knows whats happening. But after this long, who cares? I went back to bbedit, for most uses and still use TM sometimes. Theme junkies can get their fix with this tool. It's great. http://daringfireball.net/2006/10/bbcolors_1-0 and also, try 'bbedit --maketags' from the command line for extremely cool built in ctags support. Keep using TM or don't. Peace to all

TM modifies/destroys the contents of the system-wide pasteboard

by Mel Brands

Hi all, I've come across another serious TM bug :( It appears that TM modifies the contents of the pasteboard without the user doing the ⌘+c. If you copy a piece of rich text (or text with image data) and you just switch to TM so its window is frontmost and active, TM will go ahead and just strip all rich edit out of text and leave you with just plain text representation. You can verify this if you use any of the pasteboard history viewers. Or say you copy a large number of cells out of Numbers and you inadvertently ⌘-tab to TM, TM will freeze while it's messing up your pasteboard data. Anyway, modifying system-wide pasteboard without any user input is really bad form. Will this ever be fixed or is MacVim the only solution for now? Mel

I really, really apologize to you guys for misquoting you. I must have grabbed the name from the messages above or below. I think I'll just stick to technical answers from now on. :) Regarding the bug, I am running TM 1.5.10 1623 on OS X 10.6.6 (MB Alum) and can completely confirm that the bug doesn't exist as it has been described*, at least on my system. Possibly you are running a different build? * I can copy rich text and interact with TM all I want and the pasteboard retains 100% of the richness (styling). Brandon

> > I am sure I am not the only one here who feels that some people, BIGHYPE > *hint* and others, need to tone their attitude down. Being an ass, doesn't > help anyone. @Joshua Kehn & @Watts Martin: Let's please keep this list related to helping people with TextMate, not useless ad hominem attacks. If someone reports a bug, you don't need to say anything unless you can confirm it or say it isn't currently affecting you. "This bug doesn't bother me much, so keep quiet" is not an acceptable answer, and if you post some advice please be ready to follow it yourself. That being said, I can confirm that I am not experiencing the clipboard bug. I can copy rich text from TextEdit and paste it into TextMate, then paste the still-rich text anywhere else I like. Therefore I'd say that TextMate is NOT screwing up the clipboard so it must be something else. Cheers!

How to save find/replace patterns?

by Martin Wilhelm Leidig

Hi, another thing: in Alpha one can save and edit any find/replace (F/R) pattern for later use. I’m using this feature heavily because I’m frequently editing TeX documents converted from Word format where one often has very similar F/R tasks such as formatting citations, references, or bibliographical material. At the same time one cannot do this using some external script because there’s still a wide variance of constructs depending on how the Word author worked. That all boiling down to: is there a way to save, edit, and reload F/R patterns? Thanks for all hints! … with regards from Ladenburg: -MWL- -- Martin Wilhelm Leidig, Nadlerstr. 6, D-68526 Ladenburg, Germany Professional TeXing, TeXnical counselling, and TeX hacking Dante e.V.
