Questions tagged [textmate]

TextMate is a text editor for macOS.

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 current version of the software is 2.0.23.

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.

TextMate may be the best editor out there, but is has a big disadvantage: it undoes each character typed instead of grouping characters. This makes a large undo tedious! Do you now any hacks, plugins or workarounds to fix this issue?

Where is the TextMate Language Parser?

Does anyone know where the code TextMate uses for syntax highlighting is burried? If not, do you know how they parse their language syntaxes, or how you would parse their language syntaxes? That would be awesome to look into. Thanks! Lance
