Textmate Search in a Folder (with grep) Part Deux
November 15th, 2007
I posted my initial “Search in a Folder” solution a couple of days ago, and it turned out it had a few bugs (like the backgrounded ruby script never closing, and thus spawning a new ruby process for each time you loaded up the window. There were other user-experience annoyances, too. The good news is that that’s all in the past now.
The new version of the Wycats bundle has the following changes:
- I am now using a utility window, so the search window always remains in front
- I am now tracking open windows, so if you have an open window, another one doesn’t open
- I track all available exit conditions and correctly exit the event loop
- Other bugfixes and tweaks

Greetings,
I’ve created a new plugin for jQuery, but I didn’t found a form where I could post information about my plugin. In two words it’s grid implementation based in jQuery and XML data source. The project page is http://sourceforge.net/projects/jqgridview/ All information like description, demos , themes is accessible via this web site http://creamarketing.net/. Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
Installed this Bundle. Its not working for me. If i do Shift+Command+f its still trying to search in whole project only.
So i changed the short cut to Control+Command+f … still no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Kalyan.

Very nice. If I could, I would make sweet, sweet love to this bundle. Seriously — good work. Textmate is a fine editor, but its searching capabilities leave a lot to be desired. This improves things greatly. Thanks!
