Hi TextMate'rs,
I often mistakingly type CJK letters in TextMate documents by totally forgetting checking what input method I'm in.
If this happens, I don't find any solution to go back to normal. Pressing Command-Z doesn't seem to help there. The only thing I can do is close the window without saving, which, invariably, loses what I've been working so far.
Is there any solution to quickly revert to where I was?
Also, is there any way to force TextMate to use a specific input method, let's say, US mode?

Well, that's probably not exactly what you're looking for, but in the System Preferences, under International > Input Menu, there's an option that allows you to select one input source per document. That means you can set your TM files to British (or whatever non-CJK layout your keyboard has), and the rest to Kotoeri/Simplified Chinese/ Hangul/whatever.
The downside is that you lose the convenience of a global setting -- your input method will sometimes change when you click on a different window.
Hope that helps, -- Max

The only way I know is to switch easily your Input Menu back to 'British' or whatever (apple-space switches to the last input method). Then TM will display what you entered. So you don't loose any data.
Cheers,
