A rather annoying behavior has cropped up recently for me in TextMate. Periodically, the gutter will "jump", getting wider and narrower over and over again. Its probably easiest to just show a video:

Why is this happening, and how can I stop it?
Thanks, cf

Sounds like the number of lines in the file is oscillating between 99 and 100, or 999 and 10000 so the gutter width is changing size in response to the number of digits needed for the line numbers. I had reported this distracting visual behaviour many years ago, assuming this is what you are seeing.

Sorry about the bad link -- here's a better one:

That particular file only has 949 lines, so that does not sound like the cause of the problem. Also, this happens more often than I would expect if that were the issue.
