Textmate: Power Editing for the Mac
TextMate is a powerful tool for programmers, web designers,
and anyone else who regularly needs to work with text files
on Mac OS X. TextMate focuses on pragmatic automation,
which means it will save you time time that's always in
short supply. See how your lowly text editor can become a
hard working member of your staff.
TextMate
is a full-featured text editor available for Mac OS
X that can greatly enhance your text manipulation skills.
TextMate is actually a thin shell over a personalized team
of robot ninjas ready to do your bidding. Let's face it,
who doesn't want their very own team of robot ninjas?
With TextMate you can do your normal work, but signal the
ever-watchful ninjas as you go. At your command, they will
launch into action, slicing through text, building
repetitive structures of data in the blink of an eye, and
much more. They will even post to your blog, handle your
IRC conversations, and read your email.
Inside this book you will learn how to teleport instantly to
the exact line of the file you need to be on, edit the data
with the briefest incantations of power, and banish the end
result to the land of your choosing. It's magic, as you can
plainly see.
Leave the days of dull work behind. Learn your spells, gain
access to your team of robot ninjas, and you too will be
able to edit text so effortlessly that everyone watching
over your shoulder will be forced to ask, "Wait, how did you
do that?"
