Hans, et al
I'm one of the core Objective-J / Cappuccino developers. I'm glad you
like it, and thanks for helping out.
We actually use $OBJJ_HOME in the Objective-J tools already. If you
install the Tools package it currently puts all the tools and
libraries in /usr/local/share/objj. This is the default used in case
$OBJJ_HOME isn't set. If you install the tools elsewhere, you can set
your $OBJJ_HOME to that location. We just didn't want to have to set
too many environment variables ($STEAM_BUILD is already required, it's
where frameworks, etc are built)
Anyway, I like the idea. We probably will be putting a copy of
Frameworks at $OBJJ_HOME/Frameworks and the template applications
somewhere in $OBJJ_HOME.
We're actually planning on adding some commands for generating
standard projects to the "steam" tool (an Objective-J specific build
tool, similar to xcodebuild). This would be similar to the "rails"
command with Ruby on Rails. Then the TM commands you're talking about
would simply call steam with whatever the syntax for a new app is.
Any thoughts?
Also, feel free to join us in #cappuccino on irc.freenode.net

Hi,
I've just discovered Objective-J as a very very nice and powerful
programming environment.
Obj-J runs perfectly in TM's HTMLOutput (Tiger and Leopard) thus I
try to solve some issues with it.
Then I downloaded the "JavaScript Objective-J" bundle. I added a
first naïve "Run" command and a first help system for it.
But I want to discuss some details in beforehand.
I could imagine that Obj-J will be used by TM coders more and more in
the near future. A 'normal' Obj-J application always ships with 2MB
of Frameworks code. To prevent this I think it would be nice to do
the following.
If someone wants to use Obj-J apps inside of TM s/he should download
the starter kit or tools from
http://cappuccino.org/download/
and copy this folder to a proper destination (maybe also rename it).
Then s/he only have to set a shell variable OBJJ_HOME in '~/.profile'
like e.g.
export OBJJ_HOME="$HOME/Library/Objective-J"
Then my help system would work and a new app could have instead the
entire subfolder 'Frameworks' only a symbolic link like:
ln -s "$OBJJ_HOME/Frameworks" Frameworks
Then one could write commands:
New Obj-J Application
New Obj-J Application (embedded Frameworks)
to generate an app template with index.html, main.j, Frameworks
folder etc. with or without embedded Frameworks.
Are there any comments?
Should I upload my stuff I have to the Review trunk as "JavaScript
Objective-J"?
Is there someone who is using it yet?

Hans,
Downloaded the scratchpad bundle as your movie is very intriguing. I
get the following error on both my desktop and laptop:
/tmp/temp_textmate.OerJwl:5:in `require': no such file to load -- /
Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/tm/
htmloutput (LoadError) from /tmp/temp_textmate.OerJwl:5
Neither installation has a tm directory (let alone htmloutput file) in
the application (nor the user Library/Application Support/TextMate)
path.
I have not set my TM_SUPPORT_PATH environment. Is there something I am
missing to configure? I've never come across this issue.
Cheers,
Brian
I am subscribed to the digest, so I didn't see the thread about this
issue until after my posting. Sorry for the waste of bandwidth.

Hi,
Does TextMate have a keyboard shortcut that acts_as Vim's "^" key?
i.e: it puts the cursor in front of the first character of a line that
is not a space or a tab.
Hi,
I have another problem with snippets.
I have defined the snippet
^{$1}$0
for inserting LaTeX superscripts. The snippet is bounded to the ^ key.
However, with some keyboard (French and Italian and possibly more), ^
is an active key to insert accented letter. When the snippet is used
with such keyboards after typing ^ one correctly have ^{} with the
caret inside the curly brackets, but when one types, for example 2,
the result is ^{^{}}.
Any way to prevent this (beside changing the trigger for the snippet)/
All the best
Guido

Hi,
I wonder how you guys keep your TextMate synced with among multiple
Macs.
I noticed that BBEdit 9 added mobileme support.

Hi i just updated the Support folder and the Python and Perl bundle.
Now every time I do "run script" the following error is displayed with
the expected output:
"/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/tm/process.rb:123:
warning: Insecure world writable dir /Library in PATH, mode 040777"
