Tiger has a new feature in Cocoa apps. The dictionary feature. I had thought that TextMate was Cocoa. (To be honest, I haven't looked that closely). Out of curiosity when I was using the dictionary feature, which is activated with command-control-d, I noticed that it did not do anything. Is this explicitly disabled in TextMate, or is there a key-binding that I haven't found yet that masks the system key-binding.
I'm using b12 and have relatively new bundles.

Oh, it definately is :-).

The dictionary pop-up only works for the system gadgets such as mainly NSTextView. TextMate uses a custom class for text editing, and, as I understand, there is not too much documentation out there on how to implement this feature yourself.

There is of course the "Lookup in Dictionary" command (shift-cmd-D) in the Text Utilities bundle. It launches the dictionary app with word your cursor is in. It's not as great as the text balloon, but it's something..
