This setting allows changing which invisibles are shown and what glyph
is used for them.
Invisibles are '\t', '\n', and ' ', to turn one off, add ~[\t \n] to
the settings string. To set the glyph used for the invisible, add [\t
\n][glyph_to_use].
This will transcode a file to UTF-8 with a best effort to use the correct encoding, looking at byte order mark, extended attributes, .tm_properties, and falling back on frequency analysis.
Some valid UTF-8 byte sequences are not valid code points, so our “simple” validation is no guarantee that creating an NSString from the data will succeed.
It should be safe to assume that clipboard data is valid UTF-8, but I’m seeing crashes related to creating a CFString (from buffer content) after a paste operation, so the assumption might not be valid.
Logically I think the less temporary marks should be eclipsed, but this currently lead to inconsistencies with respect to hover images, e.g. hovering a search mark that also has a bookmark should show “remove bookmark” which it presently doesn’t, and will require a bit of refactoring to allow.
Issue #1132
Previously if the file had been loaded as ASCII/UTF-8 and was changed on disk to something other than UTF-8, TextMate would go into infinite loop (retrying with UTF-8). It now uses the encoding classifier to find the most probable encoding (based on learned frequencies) falling back on ISO-8859-1, if there is no candidate.
Ideally it would bring up a warning, informing the user of the problem and allowing a manual correction of character set.
Fixes#1073.
When selecting multiple lines, but not including the newline on the last line of the selection, TextMate still consider it a “full line” and will insert a newline when pasting, unless pasting on an empty line.
Previously the check to see if the line was empty, would not account for a non-empty but selected line, which would effectively be empty since the selected text is deleted before pasting.
My interpretation: The old inline array is interpreted as an initializer list which cannot (yet) be used with Objective-C objects when ARC is enabled.
Fixes#1037
