Just getting my feet wet with TextMate 2 and already I've got a question. What's the purpose of the checkboxes next to the names of bundles if they don't actually disable the bundle?
For example, I still see Apache and AppleScript in the Bundles and Gear menus even though I have unchecked Apache and AppleScript in the preferences.
Similarly, I've tried unchecking in the Bundle editor and that doesn't help either.
Is there a correct way to eliminate unused bundles? Thx - m.
It looks like this problem is due to the way TextMate 2 interleaves its own preferences with those of TextMate 1 (e.g. it puts its own bundles into TextMate 1's Application Support folder). I wish it didn't do this. I solved the problem by putting TextMate 1's preferences where TextMate 2 couldn't see them. m.

I am not sure how to interpret this.
TextMate 2 will not read any of TextMate 1’s files and it will not place things where TextMate 1 can see them.
As for disabling bundles, TextMate 2 has two “concepts” in its UI, the Preferences → Bundles show only bundles from a curated list and allows to install/uninstall these. The actual bundles go to ~/Library/Appliation Support/TextMate/Managed/Bundles. This list will not contain bundles outside that “Managed” folder.
Additionally there are non-curated/non-managed bundles, these can be in ~/Library/Application Support/Avian. The rest of the UI show both managed and non-managed bundles together (i.e. Bundles menu and bundle editor).
Ideally we would not present managed bundles in isolation, the current UI is mainly just exposing how things are handled internally.

Right, but for some reason, the way I had this set up (passing thru a symlink), TM2 could put the bundles there but was failing to remove them when a bundle was unchecked, so I was unable to disable any of them. I altered my arrangement and thus fixed that problem. m.
