PS. I'm missing the TextMate1's bundle management UI. I was super easy
to add sub menus etc... Is there any future plan to fix it? or improve
it? copying UUID and adding to plist manually is a bit hard :)
I would very much like to do some improvements in this area! But it
always seems to be pushed down on my list, a combination of only rarely
interacting with the bundle editor myself (though probably because it
feels so half baked), and not having a clear vision of how I would like
to see it (re)done.
I imagine though if I’m avoiding the bundle editor myself, lots of
users are doing the same, which is really a shame, because they forego
so many neat customizations that could be done.
On the latter point, and to elaborate on the above, my thinking is that
I shouldn’t create “a thing to edit bundles” but rather bring the
ways in which TextMate can be customized, into the places where these
things are relevant.
Of course we will still need a command editor with properties, etc. (and
maybe a “Run” / “Dry Run” kind of action), but one giant
hierarchical list is probably not the way to organize it. E.g. editing a
language grammar should just be “Edit…” (or “New…”) from the
langauge grammar selector, all the scope specific settings need their
own editor that can be called up from the current document, to see
effective settings, etc. (like what can be done with ⌃⌘T), etc.
