Bitchin'! Many thanks!

Hey All, Love love love the new smart template feature. Absolute genius. My problem is that I much prefer a light-on-dark color scheme (so--background is black, text is light grey, etc.) and so I've used the syntax highlighting portion of the advanced --> configuration dialog to get that light-on-da...

Very cool--that will serve me. Many thanks.

Hey All, The editors TextMate and 'e' both include little utility programs that let you launch them and optionally open/create a file from the command line. So you can say, e.g., 'tm new_file.txt' at a command prompt & TextMate creates new_file.txt & opens it up for editing. Very convenient. Is ther...

LOL--the way I would say it is that supporting bundles (which include snippets, syntax highlighting rules, and other stuff) is a core feature of e/textmate (e started out as a windows clone of textmate--you can use a textmate bundle in e w/only minor changes (line-endings, remove verboten chars from...

The proposed workarounds are not substitutes for actual textmate/e style snippets. They all involve mousing around to find the particular chunk of text desired from a pick list. Snippets use the context of both the file extension and the text in the vicinity of the cursor to figure out what's called...

I too would love the snippet support. There's an opportunity to scoop up 'e' users if this can be had--development of that editor seems to be stalled right now...

Absolutely agree with this suggested feature. I've been wanting this for a while. The suggested workarounds are waaaay too cumbersome.

I too have a laptop I use with multiple displays & had this problem. I tried the .ini edit, and it did not seem to work. Then I undocked the laptop and started it up disconnected (so the only display was the laptop's). I started UE, closed all doc window and *still* didn't see the floating file tabs...

Interesting--thanks for the link. I think it's reasonable to ask for an additional filter in UE--that's a heck of a trap for the unwary. It would stink to try and actually *replace* in files and specify *.sas as the file type. .SAS files are plain text scripts, but .sas7bdat files are binaries. I be...

Hey All, If I do a find-in-files and specify *.sas as the "in files/types" part of the dialog, UE will search through files whose extensions only *start* with 'sas'. So it's as if I typed *.sas* as the type. I don't want this--is there a way to change this behavior? Thanks! -Roy

I've got the same problem (tho I'm using Ruby rather than perl) & I'm finding that showing the DOS box does *not* help. The box is empty until my script finishes running, and then the output gets flushed to the box, immediately after which it disappears. Hmmm... Maybe I need to call .flush on the st...

Thanks guys--especially Manni. I'm amazed that I just never noticed that "list lines" check box in the regular Find dialog. I think that will serve me. Thanks! -Roy

Hey All, I've got to troll through some very long log files for errors & warnings & would like to have a macro that will do a Find In Files search of *the currently showing file only* for a given regexp. I can do this w/a regular find no problem, but I like the display I get w/find in files--specifi...
