Ah! I knew there was something else...

Tieg, I noticed that you've used parentheses in all your snippets. While this is not wrong, I feel like the trend with Ruby is to not use them unless they are needed. So, for example, it would be:

oval 20, 30, 40, 50

instead of:

oval(20, 30, 40, 50)

Of course, there are times when you do need the parentheses. So, I guess the question is: "what should the snippets do?" Would it be better to leave out the parentheses, so that using the snippets results in more Ruby-ish code? Or would it be better to leave the parentheses so that beginners using the snippets don't get into trouble?

Hey Josh,

I setup a little bundle too but haven't had much time to work on it. It looks like you've got the Syntax, and I've got the Snippets-- maybe our git projects could mingle?

Hey list!

Well, it's not much, but I've started a TextMate bundle for Shoes. You can find it at: http://github.com/jballanc/shoes.tmbundle/tree/master . Right now, it doesn't do much (and no, I'm not being modest...it really doesn't do much). I've added the various special Shoes words to the language grammar, and there's a "Run in Shoes" command linked to command-R. Next step is to add some useful snippets. Hence, why I'm sending this to the list. Ideas? What snippets would be most useful? I'm thinking basic snippets for "stack" and "flow", but what properties should show up by default?

Cheers,

Josh
