Nice, I just got textmate and really appreciate these answers because I was about to ask the same question!

Hit the escape key when you are typing. This automcpletes the word based on mathes it finds in the document, based on distance from the cursor: http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/working_with_text#completion 2. use tab triggers to insert snippets into your code. a snippet is a bit of text you want to insert into the document. a tab trigger just means that that you can assign a keystroke plus hit the tab key and the snippet will be inserted. For instance, I have it set up so i type 'getset'->tab, and a private var with it's getter/setter methods will appear. The coolest hing about snippets is that you can tab through them after the appear, so you can jump right to the spot where you want to type just by hitting tab again, and use mirroring if you need to type the same thing more than once in a snippet. http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/snippets#snippets On 12/17/06, Josh Santangelo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > How do you make TextMate do autocompletion?
