[TxMt] Re: Block Caret for writers (not only for LaTeX)

[Graham Heath]

Would it be enough to increase the frequency of the blinking of the caret.
Seems to me that a frenetically blinking cursor would be more easily seen.

Though TextMate doesn't respect the following system settings, maybe it
should?

defaults write -g NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOff -float 0.1

defaults write -g NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOn -float 0.1


This comes from the following SuperUser post, which is actually about
disabling the blinking, but seemed relevant any way.

http://superuser.com/questions/466660/how-to-disable-blinking-caret-when-editing-text-in-os-x

Also some of this issue could be helped by, yet another, request for the
"highlight current line" feature.

Thanks,
