So far I like Spaces, with a couple of caveats:
1. It can be confusing to open multiple windows of the same
application in separate spaces. For example, I'd like to have one
Textmate window for web development and another for my GTD list, in
separate spaces. The problem is that when I use Command-Tab to switch
to Textmate, it switches to the most recent Textmate window I used
instead of the Textmate window in the current space (which is what I
would prefer.) I think Command-Tab should give priority to application
windows in the current space. As far as I can tell this is a Spaces
characteristic since TextEdit behaves the same.
2. When I open the Find dialog in Textmate, it switches to the last
space where I used Find, instead of bringing the Find dialog into the
current space. I believe this is a Textmate issue, as it does not
occur in TextEdit. If this is scheduled to be fixed in version 2.0, I
can wait. Should I submit this as a bug, or is this expected behavior?

Since upgrading to Leopard Xcode builds (using xcodebuild tool from
the functions in the Xcode bundle) seems a lot slower, specifically it
seems the "Checking Dependencies" phase is responsible for that.
Anybody else seing this? Anyone have a workaround?
Thanks

Hi all,
I may have missed the corresponding post, so forgive me if I did.
My question is the following: Now that we know the release date for
Leopard, and as TextMate 2 will be Leopard only, have you, Allan,
planned a date for the release of your almomst-as-awaited-as-Leopard-
itself TextMate2?
And, erh... what about a keynote in California, or in any hot and
sunny place, in which you will invite all your dear subscribers to
celebrate the event? Like sort of a TextMate Party, or something...
Note that it would be veeeery nice of you to do so. ;-)

Greetings -- I was a happy user of Ruby templates until TextMate
decided to upgrade itself. Suddenly the Templates are gone from the
Ruby bundle! And indeed, they're not there in the latest Ruby
bundle. What happened to them and how can I get them back and never
let go?
Also -- what's the intended way of setting my company name in Python
templates?
Cheers,
Alexy
This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere online that I can find, so:
Allan informed me on IRC that the mate command doesn't work from
inside screen in Leopard.
All is not lost, however. I discovered that if you install screen via
MacPorts (I had to 'port sync' first, then 'port install screen'), you
can use the mate command from inside screen with no problems.
Hopefully this will save someone else a few minutes of fruitless
searching.

I just started with Textmate:
http://www.rsaccon.com/2007/10/erlang-and-textmate.html
Searching the mail archive shows very little posts about Erlang. I
would like have better erlang support and I am interested in
contributing to get there. Anybody has done something with textmate
and Erlang and has some Experiences to share, anybody just thinking
about it and has thoughts to share ? Or just advice to put me in the
right direction to get started ? (the howtocontribute-Wiki-entry I
have read already) What I would like to have is Emacs/Distel like
Erlang integration, for example a keybinding for compiling/reloading
the current sourcefile and in case of errors keybinding to jump to the
first/next error. With Emcas I wrote some elisp hack just to integrate
things better into my workflow, I hope that can be done for
textmate/erlang as well

Hi Guys,
Please forgive me if this has been asked and answered before... But
is there any way to fold your code normally when using TM for Python?
In my experience, the arrow appears where you'd expect it to, but
stubbornly refuses to do anything at all when clicked.
Any tips from my fellow Pythonistas?

I am trying to find out how to insert an existing applescript into a
snippet or perhaps a more elegant solution to inserting variables into
snippets. Perhaps I need to explain:
I have many variations of boilerplate text that I use dozens of times
during the day in my work that require a variable input in certain
places. While I am not a programmer, I am all for automating repetitive
tasks and I'm not afraid of a little scripting. A little. Some of the
stuff in those bundles looked downright scary.
I was kindly directed to use the tab stops for snippets like this:
________________________________________________
Hello ${1:firstname}
Thank you for your order for a ${2:product}
________________________________________________
Perfect. Easy. The next part, though, is to give me more control over
the values I am inserting.
For example, I have been using BBedit (which does the job but I don't
particularly like) and in their "clippings" you can insert a
placeholder that can call up an applescript to run. Even this is
awkward compared to the simple way that NoteTabPro worked for me for
10+ years in windows before I switched to a mac - I could create
'clips' in it that would insert boilerplate text and at any
placeholders, I could include dialog boxes to type in a value or choose
it from a list.
I sat here for 6 hours today trying to see how I can do this or
something like it in TextMate - and I found programming languages that
I will never use, and syntax for them that I am utterly stumped by.
Can anyone help me?

I saw an old message on GMANE "Re: C syntax fixes" regarding this
issue. I guess much of the patch did not get applied?
There seem to be a very significant issues (for me anyhow) with the
current C syntax parser:
1) Multiple line function definitions are not tagged as functions, e.g.,
int test(int a,
int b)
{
...
}
This is unfortunately very common with functions with large numbers
of arguments.
2) Less importantly, simple macros such as
#define __MY_HEADER_H
are also getting listed in the function pull-down.
Does anyone have a patch for this that could get pushed into SVN? I
have yet to grok the syntax of C plist etc, but this is driving me
insane.
Thanks,
Matt

Matt, thanks for these directions. The GetBundles bundle
worked beautifully.
