Highly requested, but unfortunately not yet :\

However, when you test regexps, use the regex find from within TextMate 
to validate that the patterns match correctly. This should make it much 
easier.

Just remember to double escape all escapes before placing them in the 
property list.

TextMate supports normal auto-indent, and you can have the indent 
increased by specifying a regular expression in the language syntax 
file which should match all lines that cause an extra indent for the 
next line.

But currently it's probably not as clever about indentation as emacs.


Kind regards Allan
