Like many other Mac users I do most of my coding in TextMate (http://macromates.com/). It has tons of really nice features, one of which is its extensibility – if you need support for a coding language that isn't included with TextMate, you can add it yourself.
Well, I've been using Robert Nyman's DOMAssistant (http://www.domassistant.com/) JavaScript library quite a bit lately, and TextMate doesn't support DOMAssistant's methods and syntax. I was getting a bit annoyed at knowing that I was doing a lot of unnecessary typing because of this, so I decided to create a TextMate bundle for DOMAssistant.
Armed with my copy of TextMate, James Edward Gray II's excellent TextMate: Power Editing for the Mac (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/097873923X?ie=UTF8&tag=456bereastree-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=097873923X), and the DOMAssistant documentation, I started hacking away. This was the first time I took a closer look at adding support for a language in TextMate, but it turned out that it really isn't that difficult.
After a few hours of work, the result is a DOMAssistant TextMate bundle (http://textmate-domassistant.googlecode.com/files/DOMAssistant-tmbundle-1.0.zip) with tab triggered snippets for all methods, a code completion dictionary, and documentation links for all DOMAssistant keywords.
Google Code project: textmate-domassistant (http://code.google.com/p/textmate-domassistant/)
Direct download link: DOMAssistant-tmbundle-1.0.zip (http://textmate-domassistant.googlecode.com/files/DOMAssistant-tmbundle-1.0.zip) If you use TextMate and DOMAssistant I think this will save you a few keystrokes :-).
Suggestions for improvement are welcome. Remember that this is my first TextMate bundle, so please be gentle.
