Hi

If you need reproducible steps for this problem (involving all of Notes.app TextEdit.app and TextMate.app) I can supply them.

Kind regards

Hi

Please be aware that it is possible to have a file containing different contents in TextMate and TextEdit.

Example:

• You open <file> and you see a text clipping from Notes.app
• You open the same <file> in TextMate and it is blank.
• You then try and Save the same file in TextMate and it does not register the change in TextEdit
• You reopen the file in both applications and the differences remain.

Kind regards

It’s blank??? So TextMate doesn’t open the file that some other app could open? Is this a plain text file?

register the change in TextEdit

TextEdit does not monitor changes to the file, but if you select save in TextEdit it will warn you that the file has been changed, and offer you to revert, allowing you to import the changes done in TextMate.

I tried that, and then made further changes which I saved, and these immidiately appeared in TextMate.

This is TextEdit opening an old file? That is likely the file restore.

It sounds like your issues are about TextEdit and not TextMate. I am only responsible for the latter.
