[TxMt] Objective-C Bundle

Hi all

I've been using the Objective-C bundle for about a year now for all my Cocoa
coding. It has a lot of nice features, but there are few shortcomings and I
was wondering if anyone is actively working on this.

A few things off the top of my head:

- No completion of new classes in leopard (eg. NSGradient, Core Animation
classes) or any syntax highlighting for new Objective-C 2.0 features.

- Cocoa classes are automatically highlighted (eg. declaring a variable as
NSRect will show "NSRect" highlighted). Other Apple classes like those in
CoreGraphics should also get the same treatment. Declaring a variable as a
CGRect won't show "CGRect" highlighted. Also help doesn't work for these
items.

- "Completion: Partial Method Signature" is really handy for inserting
delegate method signatures. It does however insert different spacing then
the "Interface/Class Method" snippet.
For example in an interface file:
 Typing "-awakeFromN<tab>" will insert "-(void)awakeFromNib;"
Typing "m<tab>" will insert "- (id)method:(id)anArgument;" (notice the extra
space after the "-")
