Code Style WITHIN PHP Quoted Strings?

2009-12-09T12:47:09Z

Does TextMate or perhaps another text editor support CODE STYLE within PHP quoted strings with the following syntax or a similar syntax:

/*FILETYPE*/'
'/*FILETYPE*/
"/*FILETYPE*/
"/*FILETYPE*/

where FILETYPE is the extension on the file.

ie) php_css.php
<?
$dark = true;
echo /*CSS*/'
font {
'/*CSS*/ . $dark ? /*CSS*/'color: black;'/*CSS*/ : /*CSS*/'color:
white;'/*CSS*/ . '
size: 20px;
margin-top: 40px;
}
'/*CSS*/;
?>

Text Editor NOTES:
- You can NOT really see the code style in this post so let me explain.
- All code SHOULD have php code style by default.
- All code in between the /*CSS*/' and '/*CSS*/ SHOULD have css code
style. (NOT a single solid color for a quoted string.)

I have also posted this question at:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Editors_IDEs/Q_24963912.html

Pulling current file code and posting it

2009-11-14T07:57:10Z

Hey,
I want todo a simple export plugin for textmate that lets me EXPORT the current viewed file as a Form post to a specific url.

How hard is that and can someone give me some directions?

Generate Rails migrations just stopped working!

2009-07-15T06:14:25Z

Just working away... not changing bundles, snippets, or anything related to TM. Just doing my work. Then suddenly TM will not generate my Rails Migrations. I deleted and reloaded all my bundles from svn.textmate.com. Of course, I tried rebooting my computer. TM says that the migration is generated, but the generated file doesn't appear in the Rails db/migration folder. It just stopped working!!

Has anyone else seen this? It doesn't even seem possible! I haven't changed anything!

Text Mate global search function

2009-05-14T12:13:35Z

I find it completely unbelievable that the text mate global search function has to be the worst I've seen in any editor. It completely locks up the entire computer if you are searching a large app, takes forever to find results, gives you no indication that it's even searching, and gives you no indication that the search is completed if it doesn't find any results. The global search is one of the most important pieces of any editor. Is there any good TextMate plugins to actually make the global search function usable?

Thanks for you time.

Ruby bundle: Hash Pair snippet is dysfunctional with 1.9 symbols used as hash keys

2009-02-02T18:43:58Z

Ruby 1.9 has a new syntax for symbols:

my_hash = {
:a => 'string' # old way
b: 'string' # new way
};

Tabbing after the 'b:' invokes the Hash Pair snippet which isn't what you want.

Ruby.tmbundle [TRUNK] broken

2009-01-23T16:27:44Z

I installed http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle into /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles and ran TextMate version 1.5.7(1436) and when attempting to "rub" a ruby script from within TM it throws and error trying to require a file.

/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle/Support/RubyMate/run_script.rb:1:in `require': no such file to load -- /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/tm/executor (LoadError) from /Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle/Support/RubyMate/run_script.rb:1

It differs from the Ruby.tmbundle that comes with the TM download (TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Ruby.tmbundle) FYI

Re: Git plugin

2008-12-01T13:43:43Z

I have found the solution. When a bundle is deleted, textmate stores this information somewhere. It is possible to see if any bundles are marked as deleted by running:

defaults read com.macromates.textmate OakBundleManagerDeletedBundles

It returns something such as:
(
"EADD4718-EE11-4ABF-A7E6-13351FB3799D"
)
if there are deleted bundles.

To reset this list:

defaults delete com.macromates.textmate OakBundleManagerDeletedBundles

I used it, and now my git bundle is available!

Textmate + Visor

2008-11-10T13:25:55Z

I recently stumbled across Blacktree's Visor (which as I'm sure you all know allows for a Quake-esque terminal session). I was just wondering if I'm the only one that thinks it would be cool to apply the same idea to Textmate - I just think having the option of sliding the code you are working on in and out of the viewing area would make previewing webpages so easy.

I tried to modify Visor myself but only succeeded in crashing my Textmate...I admittedly don't know enough to do it, I was just wondering if anyone else had thought of this/think it would be useful.

plist file became corrupt while making a new bundle

2008-11-04T19:45:07Z

Ok so I am making a new bundle of snippets and everything was working great, had it installed on my laptop and iMac. I then did an svn to track the changes....still runs on my iMac but it mentions the plist is corrupt so I am unable to install it anywhere else. Not sure what happened as I am not used to the bundles yet. attached is the plist file (though I'm not sure the upload button is working).

any ideas why this happened?

Re: TM Dialog Development

2008-10-20T09:02:51Z

Accidentally sent this… I hate my new wireless keyboard :(

Anyway, projects are sort of defined by files listed in the tmproj
file except those can be folder references and this file will be
removed in the future. I do want to support project specific
properties, but not for TM 1.x.

But, if you see a need for the feature you request, you can already do
it, e.g. store the plist under TM_PROJECT_DIR and read it into the
modal before opening a nib.

Hi Andrew.

Main discussion mainly happens on IRC, we occasionally use textmate-dev.

I am not sure how you imagine the feature you request should be
implemented. First of all, placing an NSDictionary in a nib and
binding to that (via an object controller) is something the client
using the DIALOG command can already do (if it makes sense).

Secondly, I’d be very wary of tying
Storing such settings in a project is rather tricky especially since
project files will disappear in the future.

Can Textmate do RTF files?

2008-10-18T09:44:03Z

I use Textmate for coding, and TextEdit (OS X) for taking notes. I use TextEdit because I can make text bold, underline etc...

I wish TextEdit had a tabbed interface for multiple documents like TextMate does. When I open any RTF files in TextMate (created with TextEdit) there are a bunch of weird characters everywhere..totally unreadable.

Are there any plugins, extensions, whatever...to either allow TextMate to read formatted RTF files or maybe do some basic word processing duties? (Like Word, or Text Edit).

TM Dialog Development

2008-10-15T08:28:05Z

Hello,

Is this where the main discussion regarding the TM Dialog development
is? If so, I have a great suggestion that as far as I can tell has
not yet been implemented.

I think it would be great to expose a dictionary object usable as a
NSObjectController in a Window inside a NIB that would be stored
within a project. This would be similar to using the "User Defaults"
object, but instead it would be a sort of "Project Defaults". This
would allow for some configuration/customization based on individual
projects rather than the system as a whole. It would also allow for
using and storing this information across version controlled systems,
for example.

I don't have much knowledge/experience in how the TM Dialog plugin
works, so I wouldn't have much idea as to how one could implement
this, and it may or may not require modifications to the core of
TextMate.

n00b question about bundles and invocation

2008-05-28T04:52:50Z

i am trying to check my .js files on save for syntactic correctness as well as strip all trailing spaces of the file at the same time, but i cannot get this to work.
the text bundle provides me with a method to strip all trailing spaces but if i bind the method to command-s it never gets called (or so it seems), the javascript tools bundle on the other hand always gets called.
so i thought: call two bundles at the same time. i used the wiki code from http://wiki.macromates.com/Main/Howtos#StripTrailingWhitespaceOnSave to create my own bundle, and bind the action also to command-s. now i always get a dialog which makes me choose between the two bundles (which both work btw), but what i really wanted to do is call the two things one after the other. is there a way to do this? how can it be done?

thanks in advance,
alex

While I still want to downplay any potential release, I am using TM 2
myself now for most stuff. So chances for a beta before summer are
good. When a beta is out, I will gladly work a little closer with you
to make a functional ViMate plug-in.

And anyone who writes me in N months to ask on status for the above
can be certain to be excluded from any potential beta program :p

There really isn’t much more than the NSTextInput protocol to work
with here and the string/selection methods (which return the contents
as a string).

Personally not overly optimistic about the feasibility of this for 1.x.

Not sure what you have done to achieve this. Calling undo: doesn’t work?

You can use findNext: to find next occurrence on the find pasteboard
(see NSPPasteboard), but highlighting multiple segments is not possible.

There are action methods for toggling macro recording and replaying
the scratch macro.

Probably the easiest way is to open the MainMenu.nib file and look at
what the menus are setup to call (I can’t remember off hand).

Text Buffer, Word Characters, Undo, Find, and Macro questions

2008-03-28T10:55:55Z

Several months ago I decided that I was going to hold off further
development of ViMate until version two of TextMate came out and a
documented plugin API was made available. Since version two is being
compared to Duke Nukem Forever I probably shouldn't wait. I apologize
if any of these are noob Cocoa questions. I use vi on OS X, I'm
either a die-hard or a Cocoa-noob. Probably both. ;-)

Word Movement:
I believe that I need to get access to the text buffer and some list
of word and non-word characters so that I can move by word properly.
Right now I am using the moveWordForward,
moveWordBackwardAndModifySelection... methods to accomplish this but
they are inadequate especially near boundaries such as the end of line
or end of file. Moving by word will switch from jumping to the
beginning of words to jumping to the end of words and back. It's a
crap-shoot and is the cause of most of the bugs in the ViMate plugin.
Is there a way for me to get access to a list of known word/non-word
characters known by TextMate as well as the text buffer and current
position so I can implement my own movement and selection commands?

Undo:
I reworked the ViMate plugin a while back to perform complex edits in
a manner that would look to TextMate like one edit and therefore would
undo easily without any hacking on the undo manager. Now I need to
hook the 'u' command to the built in Undo functionality. How would I
do that?

Find:
vi has the * command that will search and highlight all occurrences of
the current word in a file. This is incredibly useful when tracing
through code and checking for typographical errors. How do I hook
into the Find functionality programatically? Is there a built in way
for me to highlight each occurrence of a word at the same time without
bringing up the find dialog?

Macros:
I would like to hook 'q' up to the built in macro recording. Again,
where can I find that?

I just did this for R.
I believe there's no open source plugin but you can look at my Rdaemon.
Look at Rdaemon/daemon/Rdaemon.rb. Here you can see how I did spawn R
in a pseudo terminal. In principal you can use it as template for
Erlang if the Erlang interpreter returns always anything (a newline,
a prompt etc.).
If you have further question mail me privately.

then add a method to your controller:

I made some progress with my Erlang background server which gets

it basically works, just some minor details are missing, one of them is:

how can I intercept when textmate shuts down ? (I need to shutdown my dameon)

does there any specific method get called ALWAYS when textmate exits,

Re: how to hook into preferences

2007-12-06T07:43:08Z

There really are no recommended ways to do anything ;)

In fact I’d recommend against it as it’s pretty messy (you need to
swizzle all the toolbar delegate methods). The clock example plug-in
shows how to add an item to the Window menu and open a window from a
nib when it’s clicked – that’s generally what people do for their plug-
ins.

Download this: http://ciaranwal.sh/files/TextMate%20Plugin.tgz

And extract it to /Developer/Library/Xcode/Project Templates/Bundle/
(for Leopard – I can’t remember the location for Tiger but I’m sure
you can find it).

Re: plugin beginner questions

thanks very much. I managed to adapt the Clock example plugin so it
starts an Erlang VM in the background and I am working on a simple C
program to serve as command line utility within scripts to bridge to
the background Erlang VM.

But one stupid litte thing I didn't manage to figure out when I tried
to create my own plugin project with xcode. Which template do I choose
to get a *.tmplugin and not an *.app ?

regards
Roberto

Re: plugin beginner questions

While what you want to do is likely possible, there is currently no
API for plug-ins (aside from the facility to load them) so anything
you want to do must essentially be done through reverse-engineering/
hacking TextMate.
I believe at some point TextMate 2.0 will offer a plug-in API, and
TextMate 2.0 itself will be mostly a complete rewrite, so plug-ins
written for the current version are unlikely to work.

That said:

The clock plug-in includes some code for observing the currently
edited document (I believe it’s commented out at the top of Clock.mm,
the NSWindow subclass and poseAsClass: call below).
At its simplest this would allow you to observe when the current
document changes to one with an extension you are interested in and
then run your code.

To hook into file saving I think you’d want to swizzle[1] -
[OakDocumentController saveDocument:], but an easier method would be
to change the target of the “Save” menu item to call a method in your
plug-in class and then call saveDocument: from there, before doing
your custom operations.

plugin beginner questions

2007-11-27T11:58:59Z

I am struggling with plugins, and I am at the very first begin, just
played with the clock demo.

I posted about this on normal textmate list, and now I discovered that
there is a specific plugin mailing list. I want to do better Erlang /
textmate integration, see details here:
http://www.rsaccon.com/2007/11/faster-interaction-between-erlang-and.html

What I want to do is subscribe to events when a textmate starts and
stops (or even when a specific language grammar gets activated or
deactivated if that is possible) and when a document gets saved. And
in case of such events I want to run my custom code in C for starting
a Erlang VM in the background, Erlang compiling and other stuff. I am
not familiar with Objective C, nor with Cocoa, but I am familiar with
C, so I guess I an figure out things ..

Is this possible at all ? Somebody can point me in the right
direction, for me figuring out how to do it ?

Does it make sense at all ? If with upcoming TextMate 2.0 things will
look completely different, just say "no".

You may find the Image Browser bundle useful: http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/ImageBrowser.tmbundle/

You want to create an image editor within a text editor?!? Wow

I'm tired of seeing my images and not remembering what version they are or if there is a large number of slightly different ones in what order they go in, especially when provided by someone else's project.

I was looking to create a plugin that would display the image within the textMate main window and give some general information and content tags.

A a later point in time to allow simple image correction, editing, rotation etc... Sometimes an images saturation isn't correct and rather than opening up Photoshop or whatever you can simply correct within the app. This will be easier to achieve with Leopard as the image editing interface to partially build in.
