Hey,
I was just thinking it would be cool if the Go To Symbol action
worked a bit like Quicksilver .. of sorts.
Like, let's say you knew the 'symbol' (function) you wanted to jump
to in a particular function, you could do something like:
Cmd-T to bring up the Go To File dialog.
1) Locate the file you like w/ a few key strokes
2) hit right-arrow (or some other trigger)
2.5) a side window pops up (like when you hit the right arrow in
quicksilver) with a list of the symbols in the file,
3) bang out a few keystrokes to find the right symbol.
Taking that one step further.
Let's say your cursor is inside a symbol (function) of that is found
in the file you are jumping to, it would be cool if that was the
default selected symbol in the right-pop-out window that comes out.
Consider this situation
I'm working in my Book class and my cursor is between l and C i
getPostalCode():
// .. code
this.publisher.getPostalCode();
// ... code
I'm thinking -- what the heck does 'getPostalCode()' do?:
1) Cmd-T
2) type 'pub' (to get to Publisher file)
3) hit right arrow: a blow out window pops up to the right, with the
symbols parsed from Publisher
3.5) TextMate realizes I'm in the getPostalCode method, since my
cursor is there, and has that symbol highlighted first, so I can just
hit enter to jump to that part of the file, or
4) type 'liq' to jump to the 'liquidate()' symbol in Publisher class
(since I know what getPostalCode does)
Or you can just do Cmd-T then wait for file to open and do cmd-shift-
t as it stands now.
Just thinking.

The GTD bundle has been upgraded, with a new detailed BUY command and
a basic language syntax that allows the bundle to play better within
TextMate. If you try it, please let me know what you think. Thanks

Forgive this question as I am both a newbie and NOT a computer
programmer, yet love Textmate.
When I try to generate a TODO list, I get this error:
/tmp/temp_textmate.oZHMUi:11:in `require': No such file to load -- erb
(LoadError) from /tmp/temp_textmate.oZHMUi:11
Anyone know what is going on?
Thanks.

Hi TM users,
I have a strange behavior with the following command (with revision
1070 under Tiger) :
Save: Nothing
Command(s):
#!/bin/sh
echo "toto"
Input: Selected Text or Line
Output: Show as Tool Tip
Activation: (
Scope Selector: <none>
As a result, this command would show a "toto" tooltip (as expected)
but would also remove from the document the '(' that activated the
command !?

The best way to describe my problem is it feels like my keys aren't
working correctly. When I type, sometimes I have to push a key or
space bar several times to have the character appear on the screen.
The problem doesn't seem to have a logic— i.e. sometimes the space
bar works and sometimes I need to press it several times.
I have only experienced this problem in textmate.
I am using Textmate Version 1.5.1 (1070)
I have experienced this problem in the markdown and plain text bundles.
I have restarted the computer, but still have the problem.
Has anyone experienced this?
Thanks,
Steve
Allan,
while we all know about Textmate's performance problems with very
large files, would you mind adding some quick check before opening a
file and just displaying a dialogue that would warn of the file's
size? (you can make this a pref setting for those who don't want this
because they feel the need to be masochistic).

Hi everybody,
I'm working on editor highly inspired by TextMate for MS Windows
(codename Intype). Now it can do the TM's snippet magic, commands and
most of the text editing features of TM. Intype is using LUA or Ruby
scripts instead of shell commands (no fork on Windows).
I just want to ask these two questions:
(1) Do you know about somebody that is working on TextMate porting to MS
Windows?
(2) ...or somebody who is creating an editor inpired by TM?
Regards,
Martin
Guys,
as I am re-opening my list of blogs in endo I am looking for some
worthwhile blogs to read, preferably blogs where textmate gets
mentioned in useful ways as well as ruby…
any suggestions?
Dan
Hello there,
I've found a bug while I was thinking about requesting a feature. So
what's the bug? Steps to reproduce:
1. Make sure you have a pair of curly brackets in a file
2. Make sure only one of them is visible and the other is hidden (ie
you've scrolled so much down the document that the starting bracket
is not visible)
3. Position your cursor before the curly bracket and then move the
cursor after the bracket. You will see how the whole editing area
flashes
While I'm at this may I ask if it's possible to highlight the
matching bracket if your cursor is either before/after a curly
bracket because currently I have to go back then forwards to see the
matching bracket. I've also attached a testcase file which you can
use to check if you can reproduce this bug.
Regards,
Milen
PS. This also happens in Xcode.
First thanks to everyone who replied to my previous question.
I'm noticing a very odd behavior when I try to delete whitespace
between two tags. Most (if not all) other text editors will select
just the whitespace when I double-click on the whitespace area.
However TextMate likes to also select the closing/opening bracket/
braces - which of course I don't want to delete.
So if I wanted to delete the space between <p>Hello </p>
I can't double-click on the whitespace between "Hello" and "</p>"
without TextMate also selecting the "</" in the closing "</p>" tag.
Another example is if I have a closing brace "}" that is indented too
much and I want to line it up with its opening brace, I can no longer
double-click on the whitespace to the left of the brace without the
brace also being selected. In fact I wasted 15 minutes or so trying
to figure out how I broke a PHP script before it dawned on me that
when I deleted the whitespace I also deleted a brace.
Is there any preference or setting that changes this odd behavior?
I'm assuming TextMate does this for a reason, but I'm scratching my
head as to how this editing mode would be useful.
thanks in advance!
brian
