Hi,
i would like to display popup / hints / overlays at certain position in code, so I can show the error where the occur.
Is that somehow possible with the current plugin API? Maybe with dialog2 and custom nibs?
TextMate doesn't have a plugin API. It does support loading plugins but there's no API. One uses Objective-C method swizzling to implement TextMate plugins.
I have a fork [1] of TextMate that implements overlays that look and behave (mostly) like the overloads (errors and warnings) in XCode [2]. I did create a pull request for this but I need to rewrite it to use a different implementation strategy.
I don't use it myself anymore because it had some problems, so it's stalled.
