Subject: [TxMt] Paren matching
Hi all,
Is their a way to change the (too short for me) time during which the matching paren. is highlighted? Tks in advance,
Emmanuel

Hi Allan,
this got buried in another thread so I'm reposting.
When several commands have the same shortcut
a tooltip list appears and one has to scroll down
and then hit enter to choose one.
Wouldn't it be convenient if by default
the topmost element in the list would be selected?
This way, it would be sufficient to hit enter
in order to choose the first element (one keypress
less in many cases).
But maybe you have reasons not to like this idea.
Thanks,
Piero

While we are asking for stocking stuffers, it would be even nicer if this topmost element were dynamic -- the previous choice one made!

Subject: [TxMt] Fix for Wordpress/Blogging bundle (Date Created)
Hello all,
I'm a new TextMate user and just joined this list. I use Wordpress and am located in timezone +0100, so I found it very annoying not to be able to specify my post dates right from TextMate. After some digging around in the Wordpress code, I think I found a quick fix to this problem (which has to do with the way Wordpress converts dates in regard to timezones).
Application of the fix is described here:
I would appreciate feedback (on this list or privately) if you should encounter errors.
Enjoy,
Martin

The first 10 options are associated to numbers, so you can press a number to pick an option immediately. Also, you can type the first couple of letters of your desired choice, and will be taken then.
Unless I misunderstood what menu we are talking about.

Allan, is there any chance of recompiling the plug-in as a universal binary? Is the source available anywhere?
The bookmarks catalogue works, but the history doesn't.
FYI, the search shortcuts aren't being picked up either, but I imagine recompiling will take care of that as well.
And this post may be off topic, but I appreciate it. I was planning to figure out the problem with the OmniWeb plugin today and now I don't have to.

Right, that's pretty close :)
Pressing enter is faster but we are talking
fractions of a second here

Simply outstanding! This is the best citation chooser
ever (better than RefTeX, don't be modest).
It's really just an add-on to the already-good citekey completion -- shoulders of giants and all. And I'm pretty sure RefTeX is still a whole lot smarter than I am, but I'm glad you like it.

I would like to write a command to center the document content in the editor window. Think a boxed title in Keynote. Is there a way to know the window height in lines? I dumped the environment and saw no relevant variable.
Did you try pressing ⌃L? It should work in any Cocoa Text widget, including TextMate's. ;)

Glad to hear it's working!
Chances are that now your path in the shell looks a bit longer than it used to ;)
As per my suggestion of creating/editing ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist, please do not do so if your path looks significantly different than mine. To minimize the dangers of this change, ideally the path you set in environment.plist should consist of "/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:" followed by the path to the tex executables. Don't leave any things like /sw/bin or /opt/local/bin in there. Hopefully in the future you would not need to create/edit this file by setting its PATH at all.
The problem is that this file is read by ALL GUI apps, including things like installers, which might not expect that PATH to be set there, and some technical issues might result from that. As long as the path you put there is a typical path, with the four directories described above plus the one for TeX, you should be OK. In any case the other parts of your path will still be there when you run things from the command line.
Also, make sure there are no tabs at the beginning of the path, and no returns at the end. The line should really just have <string> followed immediately by the /bin... stuff, and then that stuff should be followed immediately by </string>.
