Hi,
after my successful attempt to output a "designated" test url in Safari, I'd now like to make a command which shows the rendered html in a TextMate browser window. That is show _the actual html itself_, not the browser-interpretation of that html. My system of scripts and templates generate html. Now I like to see that output html with nice code coloring in my favorite theme.
I see roughly two solutions: output the result of 'curl "$MY_URL"' in a TextMate HTML browser window or create a new (html) document from that output.
I would like the HTML Browser window variant much better. For (1) because it keeps only one window –i.e. it refreshes itself when it's already open, instead of opening a 2nd window–, (2) because I won't be tempted to edit the output HTML, and (3) because when I might become really smart –for which the changes are extremely slim, based on previous records ;)– I might be able to give blocks of html code a href to jump back to the specific code in the specific template file (I just *love* the TODO bundle. It saved me so much time. Life has become much more convenient :-))
My first problem is the with output of Apache restarting: it's not quiet. I need Apache to restart for all the last versions of my templates to become effective, but the following code echo "$PWD" | sudo -S apachectl $APACHE_CMD (line 43 from apachectlUsingKeychain.sh in Apache Bundle Support Folder) outputs "Password:", since sudo is asking for that. Is there a way to make this statement quiet?
2nd, about the Create New Document variant. How to set the scope of such a newly created document? Right now there is nothing indicating to TextMate that is might be html, so the output stays unstyled.
Finally on to the core of this email: How to get HTML pretty printed in a (HTML parsing) browser window? I am looking at examples like pastie [1] or TextMate Theme Sourcerer [2]. Are the solutions used in these web 2.0 projects also available for my TextMate commands?
Best dirk
