Hello
TM is really on of the best text editors, however, there is two issues unresolved for (the) years (of SL) now.
Issue one is TextMate's spelling behaviour, i.e., the automatic detection of the language of a written paragraph, see here:

TM does not detect the language I am typing in, perhaps because it uses a non-Apple document window. Anyway, always changing the system language to get correct spell check on the fly (as suggested in the thread) could hardly be a working solution. In addition, quite often I write source documents in various languages, e.g. English and German, and that makes a "one language per document" unusable.
There has also been an issue with an advanced print dialogue (but I cannot remember the posting). It is quite nice that TM adds headers and footers, however, TM does not print coloured syntax, and leaving a margin of about 1cm makes the printout unusable for punching and filing. In addition, 11pt Monaco is quite good on my screen but printing in that font size is rather a waste of space on the page. Of course, I know, that one may produce a html (nicely coloured, indeed), open that one in, say, Firefox, and print the html page.
Anyway, I was wondering if there is any progress on these two points, first, to get the apple multilingual spell check working, second, to provide TM with a print preference to set things like font, colours, and margins.
Any thoughts?
