Hi all,
I got a Mac Book Pro and this is my first time using Mac. I have been using the evaluated version of TextMate and found couple problems:
1) The top folder in the drawer occasionally closes when I switch to a space and back. It doesn't remember which folders that I have previously opened.
2) I have read the key binding help pages for page up/down keys. However, I seriously cannot find the page up/down keys on my Mac book pro keyboard. What is the alternative?
3) Will the split screen editing include in the next release? I find it difficult without such feature.
Many thanks in advance. Joe

That's Fn+cursor up and cursor Iirc

Well, that's not really a page up/down. It only scrolls up and down. Page up/down should include moving the caret to the current page.
As far as I know, I can use ^V to do page down. But don't know how to do page up.

On a Mac, pg up/down does not include moving the cursor. Unlike other systems, I believe.
Can't help you with the ^V equivalent to go up. I'm sure it exists and I've used it, but I can't find it :/

Well, ctrl-V is an Emacs binding and the pg up would be Meta-V. Unfortunately I can't seem to get Meta-V to work in textmate.

Well, with no real meta-key quite hard ;)
Niels *who wonders which the right meta-key in the cli outside of Xorg is…right now he goes left control (on FreeBSD 7)*

Well, in linux 'alt' is my meta key and esc is as well...but neither of those work in textmate.

Hmm…isn't mentioned anywhere TextMate: Power Editing for the Mac (by James Edward Gray II) neither…btw. that's a book you should consider buying if you really want to use TextMate for productive use.

This is certainly much better.
Thanks! Joe

Try OPTION + page up/down
