Hi again,
I am trying to figure out, how I can update a Language Grammar of a Pristine Copy, by double clicking a Previous pristine Copy, that is derived from the same UUID, by Dragging it out from the Bundle Editor.
I tried both double clicking The Language Grammar in the Syntaxes Folder, or the Bundle altogether from a Finder Window.
What is the expected Behavior in those cases? The CoCoa Dialog tells me to confirm the Update of the previous Bundle, with the message that customizations will be retained, however, a Grammar for instance reflows, but the changes do not seem to be applied.
I can't remember, if that was the case for previous TM revisions, but I was just wondering what was the Expected behavior in those cases.

I don’t understand your goal. What is it you want?
When you double click a bundle item for installing, it always places it in Pristine Copy. There is no way around that. If you do not want it there, you need to manually place it where you want it.

So When I distribute a Bundle, and someone has an old Pristine Copy, of that same Bundle (older version) and He wants to replace that Bundle with the new one, the best way around that, then is (for the Receiver):
1)Drag customizations out of the old Bundle in a newly created one.
2)Through away the old Bundle
3)Double click the new one.
I was just wondering, if that's the way to go.

It should be enough to just double click the new bundle. It then replaces the old installed bundle in Pristine Copy. If he e.g. changed a key binding, that key binding change is a .tmDelta file outside Pristine Copy, and thus will be preserved.

Allan, thanks again for all your help. I owe you at least 100 cases of Beer.However I have resolved most of the problems that I had, and am working on the Grammar now, and after that I pretty much have all that I need for my work.
