My personal quickstart:
* Disable 'auto-pair characters'. Don't insert crap in my text, just don't do it. Ever.
* Disable 're-indent pasted text'. Again, stop messing with my stuff.
* Enable line numbering
* Delete all the bundles and mess, leaving syntax highlighting. Making sure auto-indent stuff is gone.
* Enable soft tabs, 4. Not perfect since arrow keys still skip over spaces randomly which is irritating. (Depends if you're on a 'tab stop').
I liked it enough to pay for it, but wish it'd just be a good text editor rather than a "My! It looks like you're writing a factory pattern. Would you like to start the factory pattern wizard?" (Hyperbole but you get what I mean).
- snorkel 18y agoThe auto-pairing annoyed me at first, but when using other editors I find myself expecting them to give me a matching close brace whenever I type an open brace. It's grown on me.
- axod 18y agoMy main gripe with it is... a+4 hmm I need to change that into 2*(a+4) 2*()a+4 for the love of god TextMate, go away!!!!!
- jcromartie 18y agoYou're approaching it the wrong way. TextMate inserts matching pairs around the selection. Just type 2*, then select a+4 and hit (.
- axod 18y agoI'm too old to change the way I work ;) The extra hassle for saving a keypress isn't worth it IMHO.
