 I wrote a drag command which calls "$DIALOG" to show a nib. Fine.
If I drag a file from Finder to a new empty TM window, the nib popups, but unfortunately TM don't get the focus.
If I drag and drop e.g. an image from Finder to an HTML document the current document gets the focus.
Is this behaviour changeable?
 
Furthermore it turns out that sometimes it works and sometimes not(?) Could it be a timimg issue?

Allan and I felt that the template didn't add anything significant
over ⌘N, ⌃⌥⇧R, rb⇥ and thus we decided to remove it. 
Yeah, I noticed it was gone too and was going to post a message also. Then I saw one of the bundle updates saying they were removed. Good thing I had some clue where to at least start to look!
 And also, if I recall, I tried the Control-Option-Shift-R, but it didn't work. I had to use Control-Option-Shift-E, then choose Ruby from the list.

Subject: [TxMt] TextMate and Leopard
 I'm sure Allan is all over it, but I noticed an issue with TextMate (v1.5.7) running on Leopard. Clicking the "gear" popup at the bottom of the window and selecting various bundles to see the commands, the text in the menus are different sizes! Some small, some large. I remember seeing this before and it was corrected. 
I'll play around more tonight to see if there's some correlation between menu items and text size.

The commit message had a typo in it.  It said to use E, but the R (for Ruby) is correct.

Hi,
I'm using Safari 3.0.3 on Tiger.

This could be under some circumstances quite useful but is there a way to suppress such behaviour?

Resolved by changing one line in runner.rb see patch :

But I'm very new to Rspec, so I don't have any idea of why we have to do that and I don't know if it breaks something.

I am also seeing that, and it sucks. I have one project that is an umbrella for 14 or so (sub)projects, and I think it takes >1 minute to check dependencies, even re-running the build (on a Mac Pro with plenty of memory) does not make it faster.

Subject: [TxMt] Spaces
So far I like Spaces, with a couple of caveats:
1. It can be confusing to open multiple windows of the same application in separate spaces. For example, I'd like to have one Textmate window for web development and another for my GTD list, in separate spaces. The problem is that when I use Command-Tab to switch to Textmate, it switches to the most recent Textmate window I used instead of the Textmate window in the current space (which is what I would prefer.) I think Command-Tab should give priority to application windows in the current space. As far as I can tell this is a Spaces characteristic since TextEdit behaves the same.
2. When I open the Find dialog in Textmate, it switches to the last space where I used Find, instead of bringing the Find dialog into the current space. I believe this is a Textmate issue, as it does not occur in TextEdit. If this is scheduled to be fixed in version 2.0, I can wait. Should I submit this as a bug, or is this expected behavior?

I wouldn't be so quick to blame TM.  I find a lot of funkiness with

there will be some wrinkles to iron out.  Though I'm not too sure that
Apple will actually fix them.

I don't believe TM is to blame for #1. As for #2, I haven't tested other apps, but TextEdit seems to behave correctly while TM doesn't work. I suppose that could still be a bug in Spaces.
I hadn't heard about 2.0 being a rumor.

Hi Alain,
That’s odd – looks like your server doesn’t have an encoding set. I’ve modified the SQL bundle to handle this gracefully, so you have the following options:
• If you are already using an SVN checkout of the bundle just update it
• If you’re not then check the manual under “Getting New Bundles” for information on how to get it
• You can use this patch to fix the problem:

Subject: Re: [TxMt] Ctrl key and shortcuts cease working
 I just ran into a problem where after the recent update (version 1436), all of TM's shortcuts involving the ctrl key broke.
 
What is an example of a shortcut which broke?
 
Well, not helpfully at all bug-context-wise but much to my relief, the shortcut keys started working again.
Commands that didn't work included switching language definitions, Insert Open/Close Tag in HTML, seemed like anything that didn't use the command key except some of the emacs-like shortcuts (^a, ^e, ^k, etc.). I'm sorry I can't tell you for sure.
One thing I didn't think of trying while troubleshooting the problem but have done in the meantime was to switch languages in the international panel. I sometimes jump back and forth between italian and english in the same session, and maybe that broke things.

Roberto,
Maybe I'm not really understanding what you want to do, but  You can always write a command for your bundle (with whatever processing you want to the file) and then set the key equivalent to ⌃⌥⌘-p.  If you set the scope for your command to your language scope then your command will take precedence over the general preview command.

I've come across some odd behavior when using the html bundle and converting mail addresses to links:
If I copy 
name@email.com and then use the key comand, it results in <a href="mailto:dave@dave.com">
name@email.com</a>
Is there a workaround?

Subject: Re: [TxMt] Need help finding and MOVING text
 I would like to be able to FIND a string and move it up or down in the file.
 
Pipe the document through:
perl -ne 'BEGIN{$"=undef}push(@hold, $_) if /^NOTE/../^X-Palm/; print
unless @hold;  if (/^X-Palm/) {pop @hold; print "$_@hold"; @hold=()}'
j.

is it only obfuscating the email in the link and not the actual text of the email?
Or do you not want it to obfuscate at all?

I imagine that they started using the shared "find buffer" for that field in Safari. Forgive me if this is old news, but if you select something and hit ⌘E, it gets put into a system wide buffer. That string then becomes "the thing you're searching for" in all Cocoa applications. I've seen it shared between OmniWeb, TextMate, Quicksilver, TextEdit, etc. Although it usually only applies to the ⌘F "search in page", I guess they decided to use it for the web search control in Safari as well.
I don't know of a way to suppress the behavior, but you could avoid it by using OmniWeb. :)

(not TextMate related ... sorry)
I'm somewhat familiar with perl, but I've never seen  'if /^NOTE/../^X-Palm/' before.  Where can I find it in the docs?

You can see an explanation of this "flip-flop" operator with some nice examples via
  perldoc perlop
Search for "Range Operators".

Thanks. I see.
I only wonder whether TM could be configured in such a way to use either the "shared find buffer" or a "local find buffer". I believe, if any, that would be a question to Allan.

Subject: [TxMt] Hard wrapping again
For many reasons, I would like to have the possibility to hard wrap my file (mainly for LaTeX files).
Reformat paragraph alone (^Q) does not work in the way I like, but selecting a line Shift-cmd-L and ^Q does what I want.
What I would like to know is whether there is a way to automate this procedure for a file (all the line in the file), or whether I have to write my own command for this (or there is a script called by ^Q).
All the best
Guido

Please forgive me, if I understood your problem wrong!
Did you try to set the "wrap column" to what ever; select all (APPLE+A); press CTRL+Q?
That you could record as macro.
Or is there something I missed?

Just set up a command that pipes the text through fmt.

Sorry I should have been more precise.

I have tried it but it does not do what I want.
The problem with CTRL-Q is that it does not "respect" LaTeX constructions.
For example
long line to be wrapped
\[
  math
\]
long line to be wrapped
with the proposed solution produces
long line to be wrapped \[ math \] long line to be wrapped
while with the one line at a time reformatting the above case is handled properly.
Thanks anyway
Guido

It merges lines.
line
\[
  math
\]
line
is transformed into
line \[
  math
\] line
But the worst part is with comments :-(

True, it's not as fearsome as I suspected it would be.
One question though; where is a sensible place to set any extra arguments that are passed to mxmlc at compilation time (Apple-B)?  I need to add a -default-size argument to the compiler but can't see where.  I don't want to edit the build script but I want to put it in the 'right' place.  Is there a project specific variable I could use?

There are two ways to do this, firstly you could choose the Build (custom) command and have it execute your own script. However I'd recommend that you use a build-config.xml file which mxmlc reads when it beings the compilation process. You should see that it reads {flex_sdk_home}/frameworks/flex-config.xml (you can open this file by running the Configuration > Open flex-config.xml command) as the first step of compilation. By default mxmlc will also search for a config file in the same directory as your Main.as or Main.mxml file with a -config.xml suffix (so Main-config.xml).
In your case the contents of the file should be:
<flex-config>
	<default-size>
		<width>100</width>
		<height>200</height>
	</default-size>
</flex-config>
Hope this helps.

That's exactly what I was looking for, thank you!  I had put the directives into the Flex/frameworks/flex-config.xml files originally as a work-around but I wasn't happy with this.  This solution solves the problem neatly and cleanly.  
Many thanks!
