Hi everyone,
once again, I have a (from my point of view) great Idea, but since I do not know how to program it I am sharing my thoughts with you.
I use TextMate a lot for Fortran those days, and markdown, so in those two "languages" I know the shortcuts quite well.
Now I start using TextMate to write Latex and I do not know all those shortcuts I might need. So here is the request:
Wouldn't it be nice to have a floating window (i.e. the one you get in iPhoto to adjust contrast...) showing the contents of the bundle menu on the bottom of the textwindow? (maybe one could also click the items and the bundle item will be activated). Of course it is much more efficient to trigger the bundle action by the shortcut but during the learning phase and/or for not so often used actions it would be a help.
Just some thoughts
Christoph

Hi Cristoph,
You could always use Bundles -> Textmate -> Show Keyboard Shortcuts or press Cmd+Alt+Ctrl+K and then you get a functional window with your required info.
Yes, it could be more aesthetically pleasing, so IF you have the time, please feel free to make it look more iPhoto-ish ;-)

This is a nice feature, but what would be really great is a window like the Go to File and Go to Symbol symbol windows for Execute Command that would present a list of commands allowed in the current scope. This would be a nice alternate way to invoke commands especially while learning a new bundle.

That would be Bundles → Select Bundle Item… (⌃⌘T)
It also shows tab trigger/key equivalent so one can learn it.
