I've also noticed that when I'm working in a project, and I make a
selection that requires horizontal scrolling and then switch back and
forth between another tab, that TM forgets the scrollbar X, Y
coordinates. For now I can hit Cmd-J, but it would be nice if I didn't
have to refocus every time I switch between tabs.

I've noticed that when I'm making a mouse selection that extends beyond
the visible editing area, TM doesn't scroll to follow my movements. This
is fairly unintuitive. WIll this be changing in an upcoming release?

Currently when you do an extended Find across a project and choose to
replace text, it is not obvious that your changes aren't saved when you
close the dialog box, which would be the expected bahavior.
It wasn't until I had uploaded all the files in the project and was
about to close the project (I had already closed all of the tabs) when I
was asked if I wanted to save the changed documents! I had to go through
to whole upload process again to commit my changes!
This behavior should be much more transparent to the user--either by
automatically saving changes to files that are not open in tabs or to
have a check box on the find/replace in project dialog that offers to
save changes automatically.

Hi All,
When "Saving as" a document using for instance "iso-latin-1" file
encoding, if the document contains a character that can not be saved
with this encoding, the file is automaticaly saved in UTF-8. OK, that's
the same with TextEdit. But the point is, we have no warning about it,
which could be confusing.
Could we have a message box that display :
"your document cannot be saved in <the encoding you want>,
so what do you want to do :
[] save as UTF-8
[] edit your document to change exotic character(s)"
And could we have too an utility to track down those characters that
prevent the file from being saved in the chosen encoding? Or does RegEx
Find/Replace allow it?
And (last) for HTML file, when saving, could TM match the
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=xxx">
with the File Encoding?
Have a nice day,

I was thinking that it might be useful to be able to view two documents
side by side in a project for easy reference. You could alt-click drag
from the gutter to create a split and then drag tabs between splits up
top...
Any thoughts on this?

Hi Allan,
I was thinking that it would be useful if, in the Open Recent menu, you
separated Projects from Files with a horizontal divider. See the
attached for one implementation idea.

Would it be possible to have tab-emulation only function at the start of a
line? Extremely few (if any) of the documents I edit directly have a column
layout (where tabs would be useful), I only really use them for
indentation.. and when editing regular text it'd be nice to have
backspace/delete only remove one space at the time.

I know you are working heavily on the project drawer and may know this,
but FYI ...
Bug: TextMate does not consistently move files (on the hard disk) as
they are moved in the project drawer.
Reproduce: Set up a project with several existing files added from a
directory, lets say ~/Sites/lib/php/report . they are not grouped in
the project drawer, just loose. Then, in the project drawer there is a
group called unit_tests, which exists on disk as ~/Sites/unit_tests. I
have a file named settings.ini that is from the reports directory but
not grouped anywhere in the project drawer. I like to alphabetize my
list of files so I can easily find them later, which means dragging the
files into place manually. in doing so, say I accidentally move
settings.ini file into the group unit_tests. What happens is that
TextMate physically moves settings.ini into ~/Sites/unit_tests. Back
in the project drawer when I notice the mistake, I move it out of the
unit_tests group but TextMate does not physically move the file out of
~/Sites/unit_tests back into ~/Sites/lib/php/reports, like it should.
This confuses TextMate (and me) and when i repopen a project, the files
are back in unit_tests.
aside from that ... what about the ability to set a root directory for
the project drawer so the project drawer can be an instance of the mac
os x finder in list mode? Maybe you could have several roots if your
project contained files scattered around the hard disk (which doesn't
seem like a typical scenario to me).
if nothing else, I would like to have the option to alphabetize the
project drawer. This would just make dealing with large amounts of
files easier.
in any event the project drawer is still very useful in its current
state.
thanks, Kumar
Hi all,
Unless I'm doing something terribly stupid, it seems it's impossible to
use a snippet while in another snippet without losing the tab
placeholders of the first... Is that right? That'd be sort of
disappointing, especially since snippets are part of what makes
TextMate elegant and customizable---would that be hard to fix?
And a related automating-stuff point: Would it be possible for find
operations performed by macros not to wipe out the previous find
string? This too I think would immediately make lots of things possible
that were only semi-possible before... (Alternatively, you could get
the same functionality by allowing commands to select text and move the
cursor without the mediation of the separate window, which would be
even cooler---you could do stuff like selecting the current sentence or
the current block---but seems like it might be a larger undertaking...)
