Nightly Build 2188

#5

This is not specific to 2188 (I’ve noticed it the past couple of updates, just forgot to mention it), but 2188 does exhibit the behavior:

Mac OS X 10.7.3: when updating, the application is not relaunched when clicking “Install and Relaunch”. I have to relaunch it manually. Not a huge deal, but not working as advertised.

Awesome :smile:

Jon, when will you stop Find from searching within excluded files/folders?

[quote=“tanepiper”]I love the new parenthesis markers in the gutter!

That is definitely BracketHighlighter. Its a little something I threw in on the last update. Package Control probably upgraded around the same time you installed the nightly.

Glad you like though :smile:.

I always wished plugins could take more advantage of the gutter icons; I had always assumed it was hard coded in there. And then I discovered you could redirect where ST2 looks for icons :smiling_imp:. Even better, you could then use any icon.

Stuff like this will be helpful if other plugins are using gutter icons too, now you can distinguish them from each other, and they can even be more descriptive of why they are there by using an intuitive symbol, like a warning icon or whatever.

Not necessarily related to this release but since it was added, drag_text has never worked on Snow Leopard for me. However, on my Lion machine it works great.

Historical problem solved. Thank you!

Any chance in some future version of SublimeText pressing “ESC” during the search move the cursor back to the place where it was? :smile:

Your daily work with quick results is really impressive Mr. Skinner. I have in you a personal hero.
Thank you for the beautiful example of how to lead a good project.

I have a problem with SQL-strings in PHP code. If string doesn’t start with SELECT-word, then syntax highlighter works not correctly. This problem may be shown when SQL-string consist of 2 or more strings.
Please, fix it.

How else is it supposed to detect the string contains SQL and highlight it? Through my usage I’ve noticed any string which matches /^(SELECT|INSERT|UPDATE|DELETE|REPLACE)\s/ will be considered as SQL and highlighted accordingly.

I Presume you mean something like this:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE hello='".$world."' AND foo='bar' ORDER BY something ASC";

On my install (Windows 7 x64), verything befor $world is highlighted as SQL, everything after is not.
I don’t think this is a bug as such. The way I see it it’s not highlighting the second half of the SQL because ST2 doesn’t have a deep understanding of PHP, so it isn’t aware you’re concatenating two strings, it just sees two separate strings separated by .$world. (Based on my observations, someone correct me if I’m wrong).

A way round this is to use double quotes for the SQL string and {} to place your variables within it. For Example:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE hello='{$world}' AND foo='bar' ORDER BY something ASC";

The whole string is highlighted as you’d expect (or at least how I expect :smile: ).

Hope that helps.

Hi,
I have two minor issues with the “Indentation: Reindent Lines” command (not related to 2188, happend in earlier builds, too). File Syntax set to PHP:

<?php
function foo1()
{
echo "Test 1 )";
echo "Test 2";
}
function foo2()
{
// Test
echo "Test 3";
}
?>

After Reindent Lines:

<?php
function foo1()
{
    echo "Test 1 )";
echo "Test 2";
}
function foo2()
{
// Test
    echo "Test 3";
}
?>

Reproducable Problems: Strings that contain ‘)’ and Line-Comments. My Indentation is set to Spaces, “smart_indent” is off.

Not too important, but I thought to mention it anyway.

Regards, Thorsten.

hmmmm… Been nearly a week since the last nightly. Not sure If I should be worried or excited. Either way, I’m definitely spoiled from all those frequent updates.

Haha, the exact same reason I came to the forums. I use ST2 several hours each day and today it hit me huh, I haven’t had an update in a few days!.

That’s the problem with Jon’s release scheduelle, it is very exiting to see these quick iterations every several days, but it also creates the expectation of this being the standard instead of the exception. I guess moving to the nightly builds for registered users was a good idea to offset this problem. We already paid, so we’re more willing to wait and not whine about the “lack” of updates (those are VERY big quotes there).

Anyway, funny to see other people anticipating new updates as well, love the software, love the development of the software and would love to see a 1.0 release in the near future (if only to get jon the deserved media attention and the accompanied boost in sales).

Version 1.4 is out since months :wink:

But this version totally disappeared from the web site, didn’t found a link to download it.
Maybe ST2 final release is imminent ?

Well, for me (as an OSX user) 2.0 is the new 1.0 :sunglasses:

In Latex mode, if I press Control, Shift, W and then b on a selected text it will surround it with html bold tags. If I open the snippets menu and select the snippet from there it works correctly.

Yea, if we’re not getting actual nightlys’ then I don’t think it should be called that. Maybe change these to dev releases, and dev to release candidates instead?

It’s only possible to be visibly productive in that mode if you have a lot of experience and are working on incremental improvements.

I’m actually more interested when there is silence, as though there’s a good chance it’s just burnout, it also could be the calm before the storm

What if Jon is working on some new TextBuffer? You wouldn’t have public consumable nightly progress during a drastic redesign.

I once hassled Jon for an API so repeatedly he finally snapped “!#$#$ hell man, I work 16 hours a day, 7 days a week”

I guess he deserves a breather :smile:

Actually, I’m curious: is developing ST2 Jon’s full time job, or is it just something he does in his spare time? Though it’s popularity is growing, I doubt ST2 brings in enough.

For a long time it was a weekend thing, with stints where Jon would work full time. Wasn’t until ST2 on OSX and @wbond’s package control that things really took off and the future was certain. I’m fairly sure it’s a full time job now. At least it was relatively recently. I’m guessing Sublime pulls in more than most would think.
