[TxMt Plugins] Re: TM Dialog Development

[Allan Odgaard]

Hi Andrew.

Main discussion mainly happens on IRC, we occasionally use textmate-dev.

I am not sure how you imagine the feature you request should be  
implemented. First of all, placing an NSDictionary in a nib and  
binding to that (via an object controller) is something the client  
using the DIALOG command can already do (if it makes sense).

Secondly, I’d be very wary of tying
Storing such settings in a project is rather tricky especially since  
project files will disappear in the future.
