Re: TextMate 2
#142I really liked the web preview of TM1. But its gone in this version of TM2. :( No other editor has this functionality, except maybe espresso[1], but I don't really like their solution. Nor am I that happy with http://livereload.com/ as it only updates on save. As a front end dev, I want a live preview in my editor that autoupdates on each key press, this makes prototyping so much faster. I guess its time to start wor…

This emacs user won't. I've gotten too used to org-mode, SLIME, M-x shell, and a host of other things I'm pretty sure textmate doesn't do.
You should add Tramp to your list--I don't think textmate has anything like it and it's extremely useful. You can open a remote file or shell as easily as opening the same locally; my coworkers don't even notice that I'm editing files remotely!

I copied my old one, maybe this will help: Copy ~/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Themes/YourTextMate1.x.tmTheme To ~/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Managed/Bundles/Themes.tmbundle/Themes/ Name it, and regenerate the uuid (must be valid). Reopen textmate, select you're old theme from View -> Theme
how do i regenerate the uuid? with uuidgen?? I did that and copy the generated uuid and replace in my theme. it doesn't work. did i do sth wrong?

#145Does anyone know how to manually install themes on TextMate 2?

Can you please expand on this live preview thing so people can add it to Emacs?
Sure. A live preview window is a web preview window that is attached to another window (or buffer I suppose). The live preview window is basically a web browser window that auto-updates on each keypress from the attached editor window. Espresso and Chocolat have this functionality, but it looks like these editors simply refresh the whole page on every keypress. This constant refreshing causes a flicker on each keypre…
The iframe idea is interesting. I'm not sure why it would be any less flickery, since it seems equivalent to what we do now: get the -mainFrame and call -loadHTMLString:baseURL: on it.

I was wondering similarly: Dev work on ST2 seems to have stopped altogether. Which is a pity, because it really was shaping up to be a winner. But there are still plenty of features missing. Now i'm using chocolatapp, which seems to be moving along briskly and now has a better feature set.
"""Dev work on ST2 seems to have stopped altogether.""" Yeah, no new beta release for a whole of 40 days! """Now i'm using chocolatapp, which seems to be moving along briskly and now has a better feature set.""" The only reason it "moves along briskly" is because it started with very little. And better than ST2? Currently is somewhere south of TextMate 1.x
Release early, release often.

Programming on a laptop dramatically changes the cost/benefit of keyboard-heavy interfaces, IMHO. E.g. it's almost as quick for me to flick the cursor to switch tabs as it is to type a chorded keyboard shortcut to switch buffers, especially factoring in the ability to look and think about what buffer I want before initiating any movement.
> E.g. it's almost as quick for me to flick the cursor to switch tabs as it is to type a chorded keyboard shortcut to switch buffers, especially factoring in the ability to look and think about what buffer I want before initiating any movement. Hah. Try doing that when you have 782 open buffers. :-) Also, Emacs doesn't have real Lion full screen support, but try "M-x set-variable RET ns-auto-hide-menu-bar RET t RET"…
Please note that the patch is not mine, so credits to the author.

Sorry if this is a tired question, but, does Chocolat have vim bindings or are there any plans for it to?

What sorts of things does it improve?
Release Notes: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/891742/Screenshots/tm2_release_notes... Major changes include the new project drawer (though, I prefer ProjectPlus[1]), and the new bundle/theme updater[2], where you just tick the box and it auto-installs. - [1] http://ciaranwal.sh/2008/08/05/textmate-plug-in-projectplus [2] http://dl.dropbox.com/u/891742/Screenshots/1hgh.png
