Man, i wish someone had pointed out this validate thing earlier :) i gotta look through these menus again ..
I agree with all your points; i like komodo (use it at work on win') but it doesn't feel as good as TM, and is improving nowhere near as quickly

Anyone here familiar with Komodo (activestate)? Sadly not available for mac but very good for scripting languages (if you like an ide) for windows & linux.
I used it on Windows around version 2.3 or so and also must say that I miss some features, but I also must say that TM for me works better because Komodo, IMO, lacked very important features, for example: • writing own syntax definitions is/was not possible. • it's a bit slow, don't know why it feels so, maybe because it sits on top of mozilla. • macro system was not documented. • nothing like TMs commands exists, what I still think is my favorite feature because this way I can extend TM with ruby.
- for perl, php, tcl etc, interactive syntax checking : uses the
local interpreter to check for syntax errors & displays them (underline text red , errs in status bar) as you type. Downside: can be very slow
Yes, I also liked this, but for the most languages (ruby, python, perl, etc) you can use the Syntax checking in TM, usually available via ctrl-shit-v (v for validate). This is included in the latest SVN. (svn co https://anon:anon@macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/) its not that fancy but it helps.
What I BTW mostly miss is its handling of 'Smart Typing Pairs' where you have to move fore and backward in TM so get a blinking thing and in Komodo you just place you cursor near it and see the opponent highlighted red. But its not that important and I mentioned this already and so hope it will get implemented sometime in the future, when Allan has time to work on this.
