Dear TextMate developper(s),
I'm considering TextMate again, and while doing some more tests I realised that the "tab" key has a somewhat unusual behaviour (compared to other advanced editors) when several lines are selected : most editors would shift the whole block, while TextMate just replaces the block with a tab... On top of that, the keyboard shortcut seems odd to me (at least for a french keayboard), while shifting blocks is a very usual task when I work on code or XML Documents. And also, shifting left is often done using shift+tab. Is it possible to see those "standards" shortcuts working in TextMate ?
Also, I noticed that it now has folding abilities. But is it possible to disable it (I don't use it) ?

Sorry for this stupid question, I just found how to disable it...

The keyboard shortcuts were selected by Apple, and it's not standard Mac behavior to let tab indent the block (and I personally do regularly need to overwrite my selection with a tab character).
That said, in addition to command-[ and ], you can use option-tab and option-shift-tab to indent left/right.
