Just scanning quickly the mailing list topics, I came across one, where the phenomenon of invisible bundle Items in the Bundle Editor have been reported, in case the Bundle was build on cutting Edge, whereas the Third party User version was a prior build around 948. So , what would be interesting to find out, is:
Did this occur because Users attempted to manually place those Bundle Items in /path/to/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles
instead of ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles, or is it in fact a compatibility Issue between those Bundle versions and TM Builds ?
It is a compatibility issue, more specifically, new items are created with a type-specific extension like tmSnippet, tmCommand, tmLanguageGrammar, etc. -- r948 only load files with a plist extension.
Renaming the items would solve the compatibility problem, but now that r1103 is the latest official release, I don’t see any reason to maintain backwards compatibility for bundles.
