Hello,
I'm not exactly sure if that's what the menu's called, but I'm referring to the one that pops up when you hit Ctrl-Shift-Opt-?, as in ⌃⌥⇧P, and lists all the language grammars starting with P. Anyway, I always used to move to the arrow keys to select the language. Now that I think about it I probably could have typed the first few chars to get where I wanted, but having the number shortcuts is awesome.
Thank you Allan, for continuing to make TextMate the best text editor on any platform. CVS support be damned! ;-) Keep adding the small but useful features like this one and you'll keep your loyal customers thrilled about TextMate. Like I recently blogged about Apple, it's the excruciating attention to the smallest, seemingly unimportant details that really make me love something. I'm sure many others feel the same.
The major features like snippets are easy to get used to and take for granted, and will certainly be mimicked. Your innovative features and attention to detail will set TextMate apart even when the prominent features are copied. This is easily the best €40 I've spent on software. It was a steal. Thanks again!

Yeah, I agree. Great little feature. I've only realized it was there in this latest release because of the new(?) AppleScript bundle (I spend 95% of my time coding ActionScript, which I have set up for control-shift-option-A, so I was expecting to set the language as ActionScript, but lo and behold I got two options...). Thanks for that support, Allan! It was just a few weeks ago I was looking for an AppleScript bundle for TM. Were you reading my mind?
Thanks, Dru
