Hello everyone,
I first want to apologize to anyone who thought the subject said "TextMate2." I promise I wasn't trying to deceive you. :-)
I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this, but I have created an improved version of TabMate and wanted to share it with those of you who have been frustrated by a lack of an update to such a useful plugin.
TabMate2 https://bitbucket.org/tweekmonster/tabmate2/overview brings improvements that include refreshing windows with your modeline settings when you:
- Switch between windows (not just tabbing in and out of TextMate) - Switch between tabs - Save your file (editing then saving the modeline will immediately update your window settings) - Reload Bundles
A bonus feature has also been added: You can also keep your modeline at the bottom of your files!
TabMate2 also has a companion bundle that helps you create and manage a modeline in your files. Install it and simply press ^M and a modeline will be added to the top of your file. If you already have a modeline in your file, the bundle will simply update the existing modeline with your selected language and tab settings.
You can download the PlugIn (be sure to remove TabMate first) and Bundle here: https://bitbucket.org/tweekmonster/tabmate2/downloads
I would also like to make this disclaimer: I'm new to Objective-C programming. This was my first real-ish project involving Objective-C and I welcome any comments or pointers about the code itselfhttps://bitbucket.org/tweekmonster/tabmate2/src. I also was only able to test this plugin in Snow Leopard and Lion, but I assume that building it with the 10.5 SDK would make it usable on Leopard, right?
Please let me know what you think!
