Hi all,
I am new to TextMate. Just downloaded TextMate 1.5.2, dragged it to my Application folder on Mac OS X 10.4.7, and I wanted to start experimenting with Rails bundles.
Should I be able to do Command+Option+Shift+Down from an ActiveController action and receive a Go To context menu? Well, it just doesn't happen as expected on my MacBook Pro.
I don't have any fancy setting and I haven't change TextMate default config. I haven't buy a license. I thought I'll give myself 30 days evaluation to see whether my productivity improves with TextMate. Is this the culprit, it doesn't work because I haven't register my TextMate copy?
FYI, I can invoke the context menu using my mouse by going to Bundles-
Rails->Go To. For example I can go to my view, and it works
flawlessly.
Does 10.4.7 broken the ability? Can anyone please verify the behaviour I'm experiencing?
More weird facts: 1. From my RHTML file, Command+Option+Shift+Down work as expected. I see the Go To context menu. 2. From my model file, I should be able to type vuif and press Tab so TextMate can expand it to validates_uniqueness_of right? Well, sadly that didn't work too :(
Am I alone? What should I do to get the right behaviour?
Thanks a lot! John

Make sure you have set your language to Ruby on Rails. The menu is on the bottom bar of the window, by default it will say Ruby. After you set this it will remain set for .rb files.

Aha! Thanks a lot Allan. TextMate is great! Thanks for your hard work.
:)
BTW, do I need to set RHTML files to "Ruby on Rails" too?
No, these are already identified as HTML (Ruby) by default (due to the unique extension.)
