Questions tagged [textmate2]

TextMate is a text editor for macOS; on topic questions include those about general use of the software and development of bundles and extensions.

TextMate is a text editor for macOS, created by Allan Odgaard in 2004. Although it is still actively maintained, public-facing development was largely dormant for a decade after 2007, during which time many users migrated to other software.

The code is open source, and is hosted on Github. Questions about development of the editor and its bundles are on topic at Stack Overflow.

As an editor targeted primarily at the development community, questions about general use of TextMate are also on-topic. Please check end-user documentation for possible solutions before posting.
