Allan Odgaard's Latest Comments on TextMate 2

The wait for TM2 would be less frustrating if some of the glaring problems, like unthreaded project-wide search, would be addressed in the TM 1.x branch. Thats really my only gripe with TextMate at this point, that and a few annoyances with the way that the project drawer works.

Shipping is probably one of the hardest parts of software development. I hope Allan can get through it and understand that people are going to be critical of TM2 only because they love TM so much and want it to be awesome.

For me, the "Ack in Project" bundle provided very-welcome relief from TextMate's search woes. Its successor project is called AckMate. TextMate users in need of a better project-wide search feature could do a lot worse. YMMV.

I've used this bundle, but had some problems (it would skip certain files). On top of that, it just doesn't feel the same as the Cmd F UI in TM. I'd call the ack bundle a nice work-around, but I wonder why stuff like this isn't incorporated into the core of TM.

I've seen a few threads now about how an "Updated UI" would be a welcome improvement from the 1.x branch; I'd agree with that.

git-grep mode works pretty nicely too.
