I'm taking a fresh look at TM and using it 60/40 with BBEdit... one of the things I'm missing is a "balance tags" or "balance blocks" feature.
e.g. if I'm between two tags, I hit the key command I've assigned, cmd-opt-B, and everything between the two current HTML tags gets selected. If I press it again, everything within the parent tag gets selected, and so on. Is this something hidden in one of the TM bundles? I really miss this whenever I move over to TM.
Similarly, I like being able to double click on opening braces, parens, brackets, and selecting their contents. I know there's the code collapsing, but it's different and doesn't seem so universally applicable. e.g. object literals in Javascript aren't collapsable in TM. In BBedit they're both collapsable and the bracket-double- clicking works.
Any suggestions?
Cannot currently be done.
But you can get pretty close by using a combination of the select scope built-in command and my Balance Jr commands. Balance Jr is available in the Experimental bundle in the textmate subversion repo.

I highly recommend you bind home and end to balance jr forward and balance jr backward. Enjoy
