Hi,
I saw a blip from the old wiki about a smart typing question.
Often when I'm writing something, I'll enter something like:
blah(
At this point it completes the )
I hit ", it completes it, so I'm left with:
blah("_")
Where _ is the cursor point.
Obviously, this is great and how smart typing is intended to be used (btw, the smart typing upgrade in b5 works great). However, when I'm done typing:
blah("blahblah_")
I wish there was a quick way to jump to the end of the snippet. Right now I'm using the right arrow key, but it's inefficient because I have to take my hand of the keyboard.
Is there a way to make it go to:
blah("blahblah")_
More efficiently than using the right arrow key? Like when you're hitting the tab key for a snippet?

cmd + right/left arrow will jump the cursor to the end/beginning of the line. I guess you could write a command that inserted a semi-colon at the end of a line automatically; I haven't tried it though. Smart typing Python code is a lot more fun than PHP :(

The C bundle contains 3 macros for this: cmd-return: go to end of line, make a return cmd-shift-return: go to end of line, set a ;, make a return cmd-option-return: go to end of line, set a ;
I've grown so fond of these macros that I even have a set for text.* that sets a . instead of a ;.

Hah .. exactly what I'm talking about!
Nice ... -steve
On the topic of text, there is one thing which emacs handles really well.
Auto-fill mode hard wraps lines of text (on word endings) when you get past n chars in a line. Alt-Q re-linebreaks a whole paragraph so it fits nicely within n chars.
Any chance this could be done? Maybe it's already possible as a macro script or similar .. ?
I really like it when I need it.
cheers

David, please start a new thread when you change the topic. There's no reason to make this a followup to an existing thread, and by doing so, you degrade the usefulness of having threading in mail clients. I don't know if I need to list the advantages of having threading!?!
Auto-fill mode hard wraps lines of text (on word endings) when you get past n chars in a line. Alt-Q re-linebreaks a whole paragraph so it fits nicely within n chars.
There's currently no hard wrap in TextMate but you can re-wrap a paragraph using ctrl-F or ctrl-shift-F to have it with non-ragged right margin.
If you make a column selection and use any of these actions, it'll wrap the paragraph so that it fits inside the margins of the column selection. Like I have done for this paragraph! :)

There seems to be a little bug related to this feature: if you make a column selection of more than one paragraph and press Ctrl-F twice (or more often), all but the first paragraphs are indented by one character.

Ah, true -- thanks!

Option + right arrow puts the cursor at the start of the next word (after the ")") Cmd+right arrow or Ctrl+E puts the cursor at the end of the line.
This is true in all Cocoa apps, I think.

Aside from that though .. I think he means something akin to how Eclipse can do ...
It'll do all the smart typing w/ the putting the cursor in the smack dab in between quotes, parenthesis, etc ... but if I hit the semicolon, it jumps out of the quotes/parens whatever put it at the end of the line for me ...
Isn't that nice? ... I wonder if we could mimic something like that w/ textmate ... in jEdit I have a shortcut ... ctrl-; which jumps to the end of the line and drops a semicolon ... not as slick, but still helpful.
