What is less convenient? What regexing takes more effort? Do you mean find/replace in your code type regexing here? I'm sure Allan would be glad to hear any specific criticisms, and it would probably be possible to build Are there any features that could be added to make it more convenient? I think part of the reason that Python developers don't appreciate TextMate as much as other coders is that we don't really have all the ugly syntax that other languages benefit so much from getting an editor to fill automatically. But I still think building some snippets with Python idioms could aid python coders considerably. For instance, a "property" snippet was recently added.[1] -Jacob [1]: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/205183 _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
