ps. The LaTeX bundle has changed a lot (in cool ways) since I last worked on it. However, I don't get why there is no built-in way to wrap text in \[ \] or \( \), since this is by far the most


It is probably partly because I never use those two, I use dollar signs instead :). I also tend to do my math by first entering math environment, and not by wrapping the text later. That's my only complain about TextMate at this point, that I can't have smart pairs consisting of more than one characters, so to try and enter math environment immediately is a slight pain. (Yes of course I can write a snippet to do it, but it can't be (yet) set to trigger on \[ and the like.

common move I make.  Does anyone have objections to me adding such commands? If so, what is the recommended way of doing this with the existing bundle?


By all means please do add them. What shortcuts did you have in mind?
