I assume decrease indent only by a single unit? If so,
you can make
the line be matched by both the increase and decrease indent pattern,
e.g.:
increaseIndentPattern = '^\s*=\w+';
decreaseIndentPattern = '^\s*=\w+';
This should give the behavior. Note though that if the indent is zero
when the cut line is used, the current build will not cause the indent
to be increased for the following lines, but this will be fixed in
next build.
Also, we disable indent-as-you-type for source.comment, so if you
setup useful indent patterns for the documentation blocks (which I
assume are scoped as block comments) then it might be useful to
re-enable indent-as-you-type:
disableIndentCorrections = :false;
I am not sure, where to change these settings. In the Perl Bundle ->
Settings -> Indention? Or should I better make my own Bundle, so that
these Settings stick in case of an update?
Thanks in advance!

Since you wish to alter the existing values, adding new items would not
work, since TM would not know which settings have the highest priority.

Thanks for your answer! Now I know at least in which Bundle I have to

(`Bundle->Settings->Indention`) is probably not what we want, I tried to
change it just for the POD-text, by editing the Language Grammar of
Perl, and there the scope `comment.block.documentation.perl`:
patterns = (
{ include = '#line_comment'; },
{ name = 'comment.block.documentation.perl';
begin = '^=';
end = '^=cut';
captures = { 0 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.comment.perl'; };
};
increaseIndentPattern = '^\s*=\w+';
decreaseIndentPattern = '^\s*=\w+';
},
Unfortunately this did not change anything. So is this the right place?
Or did I misspell something?
Kind regards, Ingo

You want to create a new settings item in the bundle editor (⌘N) and
then set the increase/decrease indent patterns in this settings item,
and adjust the scope selector for the item to where it should be active,
in your case ‘comment.block.documentation.perl’.
For more about scope selectors see
http://manual.macromates.com/en/scope_selectors (and the extended 2.0
grammar is at http://manual.textmate.org/references.html#scope-selector)

Thanks! This was the "missing link". Just for the records: The correct
settings for Perls POD sections is
{ increaseIndentPattern = '';
decreaseIndentPattern = '';
}
The above disables any automatic indention, which in my opinion is the
best setting for PODs.
What would be the best way to contribute such changes and settings to
the built in Perl bundle?
Thanks again, Ingo

I thought that was already the case due to
https://github.com/textmate/source.tmbundle/blob/master/Preferences/Comment…
The (badly named) unIndentedLinePattern is effectively an “ignore”,
so the indenter should ignore all lines in block comments.

The preferred way is to click the arrow to the right of Perl in
Preferences → Bundles, this will take you to the bundle’s GitHub
page.
Then fork the bundle, clone it to ~/Library/Application
Support/TextMate/Bundles, make the change(s), git commit and push to
your fork on GitHub.
Then submit a pull request (via GitHub).
Though in this case, I think we should instead figure out why the Source
bundle’s indent settings are not working for you. Given your other
email it might sound like you have disabled the Source bundle.

Just removed TM2 from my system and reverted anything as described in
the link. After installing a fresh new TM2 I still have this behavior in
Perl POD text. So I am quite sure this is missing in the original Perl
Bundle. Fortunately it can be fixed as described in this thread.
Kind regards, Ingo

Can you confirm that you have the Source bundle active? It should appear under the Bundles
menu. The settings item "Comments: Disable Indent” should be disabling indention in
any block comments.
If the Source bundle is enabled can you provide a step-by-step guide of how to reproduce
so I can make sure we are referring to the same issue?

definitely yes. Also in Preferences→Bundles the
checkbox is checked
(see attachment).
Something strange - may be related: After restarting my computer today
and starting TM2 the themes were gone. No syntax-highlighting, no themes
available in View→Theme. After restarting TM2, de-selecting the
Theme-Bundle and reselecting it again, the theme reappeared again.

1. New TM document
2. Select Perl as language (taskbar)
3. Write some code
4. Write a sub
5. Write some POD in the sub, starting with `=head2`
6. Press enter
7. Cursor will jump to col4 in the next line (should be in col 1) see
attachment
This does not happen if I activate an additional setting as already
described in this thread.
Kind regards, Ingo

The issue here is that the context above the POD has higher indent than
desired in the POD context.
So while we disable indent (by default) in the POD context (being a
block comment), new lines still get too much indent, as TextMate scans
from current line and up, to find a line it can use to do the indent
calculations, and here it will ignore anything in the POD, as we have
setup the patterns to ignore those lines.
The thinking here was that anything typed in a block comment should have
(initial) indent like what’s above the comment. But that assertion
fails for zero-indented block comments (with indented code above them).
Your workaround, I think, makes it so that TM will just use the indent
from the line above, rather than the first line above the POD context.
This might also work in the general case.
