Hi,

or
"$TMTOOLS" help me

Changes:
added: show bundleMenu



#####
Regarding to the Ctrl+Esc issue:

For all those of you who don't want to edit a keybindings.dict or to  
abandon to some 'global' Ctrl+Esc events,
now you can easily create a normal TM command with

"$TMTOOLS" show bundleMenu

bound to any key-combo;
input = none;
output = show tool tip

to invoke the gear menu. Of course, Ctrl+Esc doesn't work if this  
combo is used by other applications.

If there is someone who really need the Ctrl+Esc combo to open the  
gear menu regardless of other applications, I believe this should  
work (if you have installed QuickSilver and TMTOOLS 0.906):

1)
write a bash script with the following content:

_____________________________
#!/bin/bash
~/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/PlugIns/TMTools.tmplugin/ 
Contents/Resources/tm_tools show bundleMenu

_____________________________
Note: please verify the path to tm_tools!

2)
save it as - let's say -

~/TM_show_bundleMenu.sh

Note: be sure you set the "execute bit"!

3)
open QuickSilver Trigger pane

4)
go to 'Custom Triggers'

and add a new trigger by looking for the just created bash script  
name "TM_show_bundleMenu" for an item; action = "Run [...]"; and set  
the target to "dummy"

5)
assign to the just created trigger the hot-key Ctrl+Esc and for  
activation 'On Press'; scope to "TextMate"

6)
close the QuickSilver window

7)
try the hot-key Ctrl+Esc in TM


I tried it out, and it works, even if I have Apple Remote running.


Cheers,
