→ textmate emulation for linux

More on: Gedit, Textmate, Linux, editor, Sun Aug 10 23:26:59 -0600 2006

I just configured Gedit Linux editor to emulate Textmate for Mac. It’s pretty simple.

Open Gedit.

Click “Edit”, then “Preferences”.

Once you’re in the ‘view’ tab, check everything but ‘Display right margin’.

Now click on the ‘Editor’ tab and enabled automatic indentation and autosaving.

Then, under the ‘Plugins’ tab, scroll down and check ‘File browser pane’ and ‘Snippets’

Now hit the F9 key. You can see that a pane appears to the left

There are two little tabs in the very bottom left hand corner now, go ahead and hit the right little tab – the window should change to this:

gedit

Also there are several gedit-plugins.

Go to Edit->Preferences->Plugins Make “Snippets” plugin available. Get ruby and erb snippets from here and copy them to ~/.gnome2/gedit/snippets

You can check them in Edit->Preferences->Plugins->Snippets & Configurate plugin

Get more plugins..

Eddt for nice directory browsing plugin

Class browser for class browser

Snap Open for opening files based on regexp. At the same site there is set of files with textmate colors and font settings, but I set them manually.

Optionally you can install others
