I've been away on holiday, did I miss beta2? What's the actual latest beta version?

No, sorry about the confusion having referred to next beta as 3 (or perhaps once even 4) have caused.
Beta 2 was only sent to two people who experienced a crash-bug with beta 1 (due to a Cocoa framework bug, let me add! :) ).
I didn't make the release public because I didn't think it had enough interesting changes. I'll release beta 3 tomorrow (is my plan) which IMHO has at least 3 new cool things: o new bundle editor!!! o the file chooser (which appeared in 1.1b1p2) o append to lines in selection, similar to column-typing but works at the end of lines of varying lengths.

Oh, now that's really good. I often need to add '</li>' to the end of a bunch of lines, and it's something that's always been clunky. Thanks, Allan.
Cheers, Andrew.

You do realise that it is very easy with regexp? Just replace $ with </li> and you're set.

Actually, I'd always used \n instead of $. Your suggestion is better.
Nonetheless, using a regexp at all still strikes me as a bit clunky.
Cheers, Andrew.
whats the file choose? is this a type of system browser ala projects?

It shows all files in the project (opens on ⌘T) and allows you to narrow it down entering a filter string (where it tries to do abbreviation matching, currently a little naive (though it learns from the corrections you make), but I'll improve that next week) -- it's a lot like Quicksilver or Launchbar, here's a grab where I've entered 'td' to reach my ToDo.txt (I never use the project drawer anymore, and after changing the tab behavior to go one back on close, I rarely look at these either):
I imagine that with Tiger you'll be able to use the Spotlight service to replace any internal code for this?
Also +1 for the end of line editor -- I'm not much for regexp, so I really appreciate this!

This is really cool. Yesterday, I said to myself I wanted such a feature ! Wow, I must have a gift !! :-D .
This is an opportunity to ask for other stuff :
1) A back/forward keyshort cut to go back to the previously displayed tab. Sometimes you have a bunch of file open in the project. You are working on a specific one and you need to take a look at another file that may be open at a "distant tab". At this point I often miss a keyboard shortcut to go back directly.
2) I know it's a known request but ... I really want to be able to double-click on a bracket or parenthesis and have the text selected until the matching bracket/parenthesis. How can you, Allan, code in objective-c without this feature ??

What key would be good for that? Maybe it should just re-arrange tabs (i.e. move the tab you go to, to the right of the current) when selecting the new tab either with the new file chooser or go to header/source from the Navigation menu.

Well, for starters I use my _keyboard_ when I code and not my mouse! :)
I do however have a macro to select the current method (i.e. out to the left/right brackets) which continue to the surrounding method when executed again. Basically it's a recording of:
1) find previous: “[” 2) move left (to deselect the bracket) 3) find next: “[[^[]]*(?R)?[^[]]*]”
I think it can also be made to handle parenthesis by using a capture for the first character and a condition for the last. But if I write it, I'll probably damage the reputation of regular expressions ;)
I can include this macro with beta 3, and I'll keep in mind that you have an obsessive need to double-click your brackets/parenthesis when you program! :)

Reordering the tabs... hmm not so sure. Just a basic "go back to previously displayed tab". That could be ctrl-alt-command Left.

Wow I love regexps :-D
Then what about letting us detect double-clicks and assign action to them !? That would be awesome.

humm actually this regexp doesn't seem to work with something like this :
[ aaa [ xxx ] [ xxx ] ]
It will not match the whole string if you put the cursor at the begining of the string, just the first "[ xxx ]" . :-/

Yes, I didn't think of that when I wrote it, and it's not my most used macro, so I haven't noticed its shortcomings -- I'll send an updated pattern when I'm in the mood for some regex hacking, or just hardcode the darn feature in TM ;)

Reminds me of something I noticed when coding syntax highlighting bundles: the matching parenthesis highlighting thing works pretty good in almost all cases, including the case described before. Could it be possible to export that matching algorithm to macro's and syntax highlighting bundles ? :)

If you go through the Software Update tab in TM's Preferences, you'll see that the latest is still 1.1b1.
