I downloaded and setup the beta and everything looks good. Thanks for your continued work on this.

I had a couple questions, forgive my ingratitude :)

- What options do I have to keep my own modifications to the bundle whenever I update it. For instance I do <cfset var = 'foo'> instead of <cfset var = 'foo' /> as well as listFindNoCase instead of listfindnocase among other small tweaks. I figure making those changes personally to the bundle every time I update to your latest and greatest isn't going to be feasible. I can open the old bundle's package contents and see my changes there and that helps some but again seems like a pain going forward. Any suggestions?

- because I don't end my tags in a valid xhtml format whenever I hit enter after a cfset tag the next line is indented, what is the best way for me to modify the bundle to avoid that? I can setup a macro for cmd + enter for instance that will get me to the next line then delete backwards once but that seems a little, err, ghetto. Not to mention it doesn't help the indentation that occurs when I paste something in on the line below the cfset tag or any other like tag such as cfargument, cflocation, cfinclude, etc.

- I am still not able to press esc and have it do the variable completion like I used to. That's a feature that really aids my productivity and I've looked into the scoping and everything and tried to get it working but to no avail, help?

Again, thanks for your work, please don't take any of these questions as complaints.

Hi Andrew,

- What options do I have to keep my own modifications to the bundle whenever I update it.

When you add snippets textmate makes you your own personal bundle.  You can probably define the key strokes the same as the built in ones, and it will use your code instead.  Not tested, but check it out I think that works.

- because I don't end my tags in a valid xhtml format whenever I hit enter after a cfset tag the next line is indented, what is the best way for me to modify the bundle to avoid that?

To be frank, I don't know.  I think it has to do with the fact the plugin extends xhtml not html.  I'd have to verify that, but I don't code that way so it's not important to me :-/ Patches welcome.

- I am still not able to press esc and have it do the variable completion like I used to

Patches welcome :)

Again, thanks for your work, please don't take any of these questions as complaints.

It's all good.  To be transparent though, like with all open source projects I work on, I often just add features I want (or am convinced I want), or I add things people pay me to add.  I've given up on trying to please people because no one is ever pleased.

If you want to try to add any of these let me know, and I'll try to steer you in the right direction if I can.

Much appreciated. Anything you can do while you're working on it to looking into any of these issues I'd appreciate. Thanks for the prompt reply.

Regarding the first question I guess I can create my own versions of all the tags and functions but was hoping to avoid that. No biggie, it's a one time effort.

Thanks again.
