[TxMt] TextMate and Objective-J

[Hans-Jörg Bibiko]

Hi,

I've just discovered Objective-J as a very very nice and powerful  
programming environment.
Obj-J runs perfectly in TM's HTMLOutput (Tiger and Leopard) thus I  
try to solve some issues with it.

Then I downloaded the "JavaScript Objective-J" bundle. I added a  
first naïve "Run" command and a first help system for it.

But I want to discuss some details in beforehand.

I could imagine that Obj-J will be used by TM coders more and more in  
the near future. A 'normal' Obj-J application always ships with 2MB  
of Frameworks code. To prevent this I think it would be nice to do  
the following.
If someone wants to use Obj-J apps inside of TM s/he should download  
the starter kit or tools from
http://cappuccino.org/download/
and copy this folder to a proper destination (maybe also rename it).  
Then s/he only have to set a shell variable OBJJ_HOME in '~/.profile'  
like e.g.
export OBJJ_HOME="$HOME/Library/Objective-J"

Then my help system would work and a new app could have instead the  
entire subfolder 'Frameworks' only a symbolic link like:
ln -s "$OBJJ_HOME/Frameworks" Frameworks

Then one could write commands:
New Obj-J Application
New Obj-J Application (embedded Frameworks)

to generate an app template with index.html, main.j, Frameworks  
folder etc. with or without embedded Frameworks.

Are there any comments?
Should I upload my stuff I have to the Review trunk as "JavaScript  
Objective-J"?
Is there someone who is using it yet?

Regards,

--Hans
