[TxMt] Run Script (PyMate) Bug in TextMate Version 1.5.4 (1360) [2007-02-13: REVISION 1360]

1. I have a directory: /Users/harry/Library/Application Support/ 
TextMate which contained 3 subdirectories:
Bundles         Pristine Copy   Support

a. Bundles directory merely contains an extra command added to  
Python.tmbundle (Run Script (PyMate) version 2.tmCommand based on  
using the pymate.py script)
b. Pristine Copy directory contains bundles that have been downloaded  
via svn and installed ... to be safe (from conflict) I moved/deleted  
all these bundles.
c. Support directory seemed to be empty; only contained a hidden .svn  
subdirectory

2. After deleting the Support directory (/Users/harry/Library/ 
Application Support/TextMate/Support) as you suggested ...

I ran the test python script using PyMate ...

but the latest (bleeding edge) version TextMate Version 1.5.4 (1360)  
still gets hung ...

PyMate r6190 running Python 2.3.5 (/usr/bin/python)
 >>> test_input.py



3. whereas a previous version, TextMate Version 1.5.4 (1324) works OK  
(cut and paste from PyMate screen; excess blank lines deleted):

HIDE STDERR SHOW STDERR
Python 2.5.0 - PyMate r5848
For comments contact the author.
The regular Python interpreter can be invoked using ⌘⇧R.
 >>> test_input.py
1
forcing redraw!!! don't remove
Script terminated with success.



4. as does TextMate Version 1.5.2 (1103)

Python 2.5.0 - PyMate r3226
For comments contact the author.
The regular Python interpreter can be invoked using ⌘⇧R.
 >>> test_input.py
1
forcing redraw!!! don't remove
Script terminated with success.


5. These older versions use $TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/pymate.py rather than  
$TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT/PyMate/pymate.rb

I can more or less make sense of the pymate.py code but the Ruby code  
pymate.rb appears enigmatic.

so far it is a  mystery which may have to go on the backburner ...

Adios
Harry.
