Hi all,
I was wondering whether something like the Live Web Preview available in TextMate 1 will be present in TextMate 2?
I was (ab)using this functionality (and its `Pipe text through (command)' option) to implement live LaTeX editing and previewing with TextMate 1 (the preview would basically update after every keystroke, no need to save the document). This worked so well, it became my primary use case and killer application for TextMate.
In TextMate 2, I noticed a `Show Web Preview' command in the HTML bundle, but the preview would neither update automatically nor is a `Pipe text through' option provided.
It would be more than sad to see this functionality go away...
Cheers and keep up the good work, --Torsten

I hope to be able to recreate the updating via the semantic class system.
Generally if something is not there, there’s a pretty good chance it’s just not done yet.

To be honest, this is exactly the answer I wanted to hear! :-)

Ack.
Thanks a lot, --Torsten

Torster, would you mind sharing your script? When I tried to do the same I run into problems and I would be curious to see how it is properly done
Thanks Piero
Hi Piero,
I'll be happy to do that. I'll package things up more nicely and get back to you (and the list).
With the new TM2 release 8956, I saw the new callback.application.did-activate semantic class. To make the live LaTeX editing work with TM2, we'd probably need a
callback.application.buffer-did-change
semantic class or similar.
Cheers, --Torsten
