I vaguely recall a hook that added TextMate to macOS input fields, but it would open a document in the usual TextMate app. That is to say, you'd be switching between apps, banging between the input field and TextMate.

Still, it saved a bit of work: you would simply close the document and the text would be saved into the input field.

Is there something like this for Windows or Linux, even if it's limited to basic functionality instead of being real vim behind the scenes?

Wow, thanks a lot for your work! I've been looking for something similar for a while, and it's the first time it's been implemented properly. Please consider adding a "Sponsor" button on your profile, I'll be glad to support your work
