I'm a little hesitant to put this out there because I'm not sure if it's a silly idea or not. I asked a little while back about interactive template creation. I created a portfolio website that, when the entries are created correctly, automatically generates client lists, recent project lists, portfolio pages, etc. I just needed a way to enter the data and have it format a blog entry. What I ended up doing with it was using tm_dialog to create a form and then process that in a template command that outputs to a new blog.html file. It's very specific to my needs, so I'm obviously not sending that to the list. However, the process seemed relatively new, so I thought I'd share it, just in case. The template will take any key-value pairs fed to it by the nib and substitute them for the :::key::: in the template file. You can build as complex a nib as you like, and do whatever you want with the keys in the template file. It's all done in ruby. It just includes a Mad Lib and is basically a proof of concept, but I think it has applications ranging from composing emails to blog entries and anything that could be sped up by inputting values into a template interactively.

find/replace in column selection

by Leo Brewin

Hi Folks, I've just started using TextMate and I'm very very impressed. I've noticed the following behaviour and I wonder if anybody could let me know if this is a "feature" or a bug. I make a column selection and I replace "foo" with "foobar". This increases the width of the column selection. Here is the problem -- any continuous text that passed through the column will now be broken and expanded with spaces. This is not what I would expect and it will seriously limit my use of find/replace in column selections. Is this a bug? Or is it an operator error? Thanks, Leo

RE : running Octave scripts

by baptiste auguie

Hi, Thanks for the tips, all. I got it working fine when I understood where these damn commands should be put. I got a bit lost between macros, commands, execute line, plugins, bundles,... as a start ;) anyway, it works now, thanks! PS: is there any RSS feed for this list, or a good way to follow it?

I sort of prefer a list that follows my typing than a keyword though (I think it's a bad habit to type "document" and then let TM wrap it in a \begin{}\end{} environment. If you ever have to switch to another editor for some reason, it's gonna be a pain.) Have you had a chance to try Kile? I found its autocompletion a dream. I quite like the "ESC" way, though this key is quite far on my keyboard. Is there a way to change the mapping for the "TAB" which i never use for instance? thanks again, baptiste ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

run Octave code

by baptiste auguie

Hello, I've run successfully some Octave code with Textmate, using the following syntax, #! /sw/bin/octave -f my code here i just select the whole text, and run "Execute line inserting result". It used to work well, but for some reason it now displays an error message when I try to use some data files in the Octave code. Example: #! /sw/bin/octave -f load("datafile.dat"); ... displays an error, error: load: unable to open input file `datafile.dat'. Running the same script in the Terminal works fine, so the problem is really when running the script in Octave. A simpler self containing script works fine (not loading a file). It's probably something to do with path directory, but I don't know why it used to work and doesn't anymore (possibly some update of TM in the meantime, and I also registered and added a few bundles). Any tips? thanks, baptiste ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

LaTeX autocompletion

by baptiste auguie

Hi, I've just purchased TextMate, and I have a few questions: 1 - when editing LaTeX code, I'd love to get a similar autocompletion feature as Kile for Linux (when you type \be, you get a list of possiblities that follows your typing (\begin{abstract},...)). It's *very* convenient and clever: it gives you the latex commands as well as words already present in the document, and narrows the list according to your typing. I found some posts about a latex autocompletion bundle/macro for TM, but I can't have it to work (I'm not sure what it does exactly anyway!). I get a huge list, from which I can't seem to choose before it disappears and leaves me with a blank document ! 2 - Is it possible to always have tab editing available, not only in projects? Or is there a way to open TextMate with an empty project by default (where you just drag and drop the files you want to use)? 3 - I run some Octave scripts from TextMate, using the Matlab mode, but I have to put something like #! /sw/bin/octave -f and run the script using the shell command with all the text selected. How can I add this compilation feature to the Matlab bundle (giving the path to Octave, and not having to select the text before running it)? Thanks, best regards, baptiste ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

GTDAlt: Go to project working for anyone?

by Alan Schmitt

I'd like to know if I'm the only one having problem with "Go to project". When I choose it, I get a list of my projects, but choosing any one of them does not do anything. Thanks, Alan -- Alan Schmitt <http://alan.petitepomme.net/> The hacker: someone who figured things out and made something cool happen. .O. ..O OOO

[ANN] Ruby Experimental + Updated Brilliance Black

by thomas Aylott

Howdy. There is a new syntax grammar in the Experimental bundle. It scopes a bunch of things that I think the main Ruby syntax should be scoping. Since so many people use Ruby, I don't want to make any major changes to it without getting some serious feedback. It could be that some of this stuff should be kept separate in a wrapper grammar for ruby, i don't know. If you are interested in Ruby and the Ruby parsing and coloring that TextMate does, please check out this new language and give us all your feedback. Also, I updated the Brilliance Black theme (in the official textmate svn repo) to support all this new stuff. If you're checking out the new stuff, this theme will show it in all it's glory.

new White I-beam cursor

by thomas Aylott

Ahoy textmateys! Avast ye white i-beam mouse cursor! The current one is just pure white and totally disappears when it hovers over something white (which happens often) So I made a new one with a bit of a shadow. It's included in the TextMate UNO nib theme http://textmate.svn.subtlegradient.com/Hacked%20Nibs!/TextMate%20UNO.zip Allan, can we just update the actual app for this one? thomas Aylott — design42 — subtleGradient — CrazyEgg

Templates

by Brett Terpstra

I had my first go at creating a template last night. It was fairly miserable. Even just using what TextMate creates automatically resulted in a "dead" template that does nothing upon hitting test or the assigned key combination. I copied an existing template and made modifications to no avail. Is there a tutorial that goes beyond the docs or is there something I'm missing?
