I installed os-x 10.5 last weekend. Since then, when using TextMate
1436 and LatexWatch, I observe the following behavior: the pdf preview
window, in TeXShop, doesn't gain focus and refresh until I click on it:
it then refreshes . If I switch to Skim as previewer, no refresh even
with clicking on the Skim window to give it focus. I had been using
both for several months, without any problem whatsoever.
Here is the console line I get regarding TeXShop as previewer:
10/29/07 10:03:11 AM TextMate[177] loadPlugIn: Dialog plug-in with same
bundle identifier (com.macromates.dialog_plug-in) already loaded
With Skim, I get the following window message:
Unable to read notes for ~/Documents/Work/Writing/Journal/2007/July.pdf,
but a Skim notes file with the same name was found. Do you want Skim to
read the notes from this file?
I click OK, but Skim doesn't refresh, though I have "check for file
change" preference on (and have restarted everything). Here is the
console reading concerning Skim:
10/29/07 10:24:14 AM TextMate[888] loadPlugIn: Dialog plug-in with same
bundle identifier (com.macromates.dialog_plug-in) already loaded
10/29/07 10:24:26 AM Skim[926] .sdef error: Operation could not be
completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 1549.)
10/29/07 10:24:26 AM Skim[926] line number: 2
I have sent as detailed a description I could to Apple Software/Support
but thought I could get some help from the LateX people on TextMate.

My Mac Mini is configured to use Skim as the PDF viewer called from
Textmate's LaTeX bundle, however I still view compiled .PDF files inside
Textmate. I need help configuring Textmate so that it will automatically
launch Skim.
Intel Mac Mini
OS X: 10.4.10
Textmate version: 1.5.7 (1436)
I have the following Textmate environment variables set in
Preferences->Advanced->Shell Variables:
TM_LATEX_ERRLVL 1
TM_LATEX_COMPILER latexmk.pl
TM_LATEX_VIEWER Skim
Skim Version: 0.9.3 (v15)
Skim has Prefereces->Sync "Check for file changes" checked and the Preset
set to "Textmate".
I am using fink's LaTeX distribution.
Skim works. It is my default .PDF viewer in Finder. I can use it to open
and view .PDF files.
If I successfully compile a LaTeX document in Textmate using apple-R, the
compiled .PDF file appears in the "Typeset and View" window owned by
Textmate instead of a Skim process.
I have another computer, a Mac Book, that as far as I can tell is configured
identically. On this machine, Textmate launches Skim as its .PDF viewer as
expected.
I'm out of ideas on how to debug this. Any suggestions?
Thanks for any help.

I've noticed some ctrl-key snippet wierdness in the Ruby Bundle.
Until the latest update, the ctrl-{ snippet to toggle blocks between
{} and do;end forms either didn't work at all, or worked
intermittently. I believe that this broke with the previous
cutting-edge update some weeks ago. I just checked for updates, and
I'm running 1436 as well, although the latest version mentioned when I
view the release notes is 1435.
Since Matt reported the problem with version 1436, I tried the snippet
just now, and here is how this line of ruby code:
a.each { | f| f }
evolves after a sequence of pressing ctrl-{ with the cursor after
either the { or do as appropriate.
a.each do |
f| f
end
a.each { |; f| f }
a.each do |;
f| f
end
a.each { |;; f| f }

Since the last update, my HTML colors are messed up if I have some
php at the top of the page, everything else after that is treated as
"embedded source" from the "fonts & color" pref pan.
If I just put: <?php ?> on top, it's fine, but if I put something like:
<?php require_once('_php/some_file.php'); ?>
The everything under is just a big chunk of the same color... Anyone
else got that? And found a way to fix it... Any suggestion much
appreciated.
Thanks!

I didn't know there was such a bundle. Thanks for telling me. But
where do I find it? I did find one from a few months ago (June) by
kjosmoen, but this didn't seem to be on SVN - whereever that is located
- and I don't know if it's the most recent.
Regarding your other questions, I don't know the answers unfortunately.

Thank you, that's just what I needed. I didn't know where the switch
was :)

Yes, that sounds like a good idea, but I'm too new to TextMate, and
to Octave, to know how to do that. Maybe later as I learn more...

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the quick reply and for explaining that, I'm glad it's not
TextMate.
I've used 3rd party virtual desktops for a few years, and I've never
seen that behavior before. As you say, I hope Apple fixes it soon.
Cheers,

I'm using TextMate to write some script files for the computational
program Octave. These are text files, but TextMate insists on adding
formatting that I don't want. How do I turn this automatic formatting
off?

PS, I had sent this same msg almost a week ago, but never saw it appear
in the digest. But in the 'From:' I had forgotten to switch it from
<not.for(a)public.display> to my real email address. Could this be the
explanation?
I'm wondering if anyone else is using TextMate with Leopard Spaces and
seeing weird behavior.
If I open up a document window in TextMate in Space 1 and leave it
there, all is well and there's no problem. If I move the window to
Space 2, when I Save the document stays on Space 2 (like it should),
but the view switches back to Space 1. The same thing happens when hit
Command-F to find: the document stays on Space 2 while the view
switches back to Space 1.
If I close TextMate, switch to Space 2, then open a document,
everything stays on Space 2 and all is well. If I then move the
document window to Space 1, I get the same problems with switching
Spaces.
Is this a quirk with my setup or is anyone else seeing this?
