My biggest gripe with TM 1.5 is how Find in Project still beachballs on a new 3.33 6-core Westmere RAID 10 setup.
Even after hearing everyone else's problems with FiP, I thought it might have been the slow HD in my last iMac.
It's not. ;)
Definitely use the "Ack In Project" bundle instead of "Find in Project". It's like night and day.
Cool, getting errors with it ATM but am definitely checking this out. Sounds promising.
Only works with 10.6 apparently which is causing my colleague problems. Also, if you set up the folder filters than Find in Project can be bearable, which is nice because Ackmate (name changed this year) doesn't do replace.
Ack in Project works fine in 10.5, I use it there every day...
The Ack in Project bundle has been deprecated by the creator in favor of the AckMate plugin. It has some major improvements over the bundle. Highly recommended.
Can you say more about this? I've been very happy with Ack in Project, and I'm loath to change such a big part of my working environment without some understanding if what I should expect to gain...
The project I work on has about 500-750KLOC and over a thousand files and after the initial index (about 20-30 seconds, which is UI blocking) the subsequent Find In Project calls take only a few seconds. This is on a 27" iMac Core 2 Duo.
At this point, it's clear that TextMate won't be getting any major new changes unless the developer releases TextMate 2. I was surprised to see even these small fixes after such a dry spell.
It's the Duke Nukem Forever of editors. :-)
I use TextMate as a scratch pad for small pieces of code / temporary clipboard storage quite often - and occasionally lose them when my computer crashes. Auto-save of untitled new documents would make life more pleasant.
Try TextEdit.app
Or Notational Velocity
Or, uh, Stickies <blushes, hides head in shame>
TextMate -> Preferences -> Advanced -> [x] Save files when focus is lost.
