Hi,
I am new to Textmate so maybe I just don't know if this already exists.
When I have a project I can set bookmarks. This is fine but it would be nice if it would be possible to not only set bookmarks but to set
a) Bookmarks of different type (maybe color) b) Add comments to bookmarks (annotations)
And aside from that it would be nice to be able to set a specific type of bookmark (selected color) for results of the current search.
So it this already on the feature list, is it planned? or is it possible to create a plugin that supports this feature. (I have more features in my head but that for sure need a plugin)
Greetings, Stefan

No, it is not planned and I think this goes against the point of working with plain text.
What sort of files are you working with? I.e. if this is source code, LaTeX, or similar then you already have a commenting (annotation) system in the actual language, no need the editor should re-invent a parallel meta-data system which won’t exchange well with other users / version control systems / shell commands (like grep) etc.

my requirements are different from someone writing source code. I am mainly looking at other peoples code and search for security holes in it. (security auditing). What I am searching for is a way to mark search results I already looked at in some way and mark if I already looked at them and how deeply I looked into them... (additionally I have external applications that produce search results that I also want to mark and annotate.)

In purpose it doesn’t sound that much different than Bob Henkel’s request: http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-April/019230.html
While I don’t plan to add these exact features, I do aim for making the text area a more general purpose canvas, and I’ll take these use cases into consideration.
