I'm new to programming and trying to learn Ruby through some online tutorials. I have textmate and have created a Ruby folder in my Documents folder to hold my .rb files. While working through "Why's Poignant Guide" I came a across a two file program. One file attempts to 'require' the other. However, this doesn't work in this folder. Is...

I've recently started using a mac for development, and textmate. Textmate can't work over ftp, so I installed transmission to mount the ftp server as a local drive. This all works fine, except every now and again about 10 unknown characters are appended to a file, which PHP reads as unknown input and throws and error. All I can think of...
I'm really used to auto-completion coming from Netbeans. In Netbeans, when I type a 'string' and then hit a 'dot' it will print out a list of methods for the String class. TextMate doesn't seem to have that function. Is it something you could add? Would save A LOT of time instead of using the ri/irb/online doc all the time. ...
TextMate has a command 'run focused test'. The command fails to recognize that the code is a test, it says "Error: This doesn't appear to be a TestCase or spec." Does anyone know how to run a focused test from textmate or a trick/hack to get around this problem? Thanks! ...
TextMate 1.5.9 seems to use Python 2.6.1. How do you configure it to use 3.1 instead? I've already installed the 3.1 package and I can use IDLE for interactive sessions, but I want to use TextMate now. I've already seen the post that directs you to define a project variable (TM_PYTHON : interpreter path). I tried this, but when i use Cmd...
I'm tired of using IDEs for scala because it can take several minutes to write one line of code on my computer (before I started programming in scala I didn't surmise that it is slow). It's a great pity that there is no option to turn off some features of scala plugin (of any IDE) that devour 100% of my cpu power and not necessary for me...
The shortcut for jumping to the beginning or end of a line of code with ⌘ + -> or ⌘ + <- does not work. I just get a mac os x system beep. I believe this shortcut is universal to the mac os x platform, and not specifically TextMate, and it and it does work everywhere else (TextEdit, StackoverFlow, etc.). Why would TextMate conflict wi...
I'm encouraged to use a Linux box at work, so I'm using Eclipse for my coding. The default black on white theme is horrible, in my opinion. Is there any way I can get Twilight-style syntax coloring (for Javascript) in Eclipse? ...
I am using Textmate (bran new user) as my editor of choice. Today I did svn diff somefile and found that svn thinks I changed the entire file ! In Textmate, I went to Textmate -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Saving and Set Line Endings to LF (recommended). File Encoding is set to UTF8 (recommended). I guessed that this was the correct s...
I've been trying to create a new TextMate snippet that allows me to create the Getters / Setters for Java. Currently this is all I can come up with: public void set${1:Var}(String $1){ this.$1 = $1; } public String get$1(){ return $1; } However, my desired snippet should take the currently selected text, eg. name and produce...

When I try to run tests from TextMate in Rails3 i get an error that I trace back to boot.rb. When I try to run boot.rb via textmate I get this error: LoadError: no such file to load — bundler method gem_original_require in custom_require.rb at line 31 method require in custom_require.rb at line 31 at top level in boot.rb at line 4 ...
I've been using vi quite a while, and with a Mac, I sometimes use TextMate, and finally, I found the greatness of emacs. And, it's very likely that I settle in emacs. The problem is, I sometimes need the other (vi/TextMate) editor for doing something. It's not that emacs doesn't have the feature, it's just that I need the feature right ...
I have textmate, but honestly the only thing I can do with it is simply edit a file. The handy little file browser is aslo useful. (how can I show/hide that file browser anyhow!) But I have no other knowledge/tricks up my sleeve, care to help me out? ...
Hi, is there an easy way within TextMate that I can select a string, hit some key and magically it will surround the string with double quotes. For example: I have some text here I select this text, use some command sequence and I have: "I have some text here" ...
Is there a way to write the ∴ therefore symbol with keyboard shortcuts in Textmate or just on a mac? ...
Textmate's 'go to file' fuzzy search is really awesome. Wincent's Command-T plugin for vim does something similar and it rocks too. Can someone explain how these work? Is there a general term for the method they use? Edit: I little more detail about what those tools do The tools let you narrow a list of options (in this case file pa...
