Hi all-
I'm working on a bundle for the J language, which has some unusual features.
I wanted to know whether there's a way of altering what TM_CURRENT_WORD's idea of "current word" is? I didn't have much luck finding something in the manual or list concerning this. Particularly if it can be redefined on a per scope basis. (I wouldn't want to make global changes!)
I certainly can use TM_CURRENT_LINE and TM_LINE_INDEX, and examine what's around the caret, but if there's a more elegant way, I'd love to know about it.
Thanks!

Are you talking about something like what's in the "Text Editing" preferences? This augments what TextMate sees as a word globally.

Thanks Oliver! I was aware of this feature, but wouldn't want to muck with it to accommodate J's idea of a word.
I was hoping there was something that would allow me to define TextMate's idea of a "word" within the scope of J source files only...
As it stands, I'm pushing forward using the current line and caret position.
Best, Charles

I requested this years ago. Apparently to hard to implement in TM, hoping/waiting for TM2.
IMHO a mandatory feature of any decent source code text editor, and one of my pet peeves with TM.

Thanks for the confirmation, Gerd.
J might be a litmus test. Here's a sample phrase:

d0=: %@>:@(] % 100"_) #. |.@[ NB. Present value flows x at y%
