If you want to buy any one of them, or know someone who does, get in touch. I should be easy to find.

I’m back

Upgrading, looking around, learning how to design using BlueprintCSS, thinking up some writing ideas, considering my options. Ya. I’m back.

Looking for a post from me? Use the Skribit widget on the sidebar to make a suggestion. I’m looking forward to it.

Getting to know Coda clips and symbols

Tired of typing the same text over and over I’ve created this simple little clip in Coda to create a Symbol so I can find things easily.

I learned this today while ‘mastering the coda editor’:

Symbols include things like H1-H6 headers in HTML mode, function and class declarations in PHP mode, CSS elements, and more.

There's another hidden gem here, which is that you can use this to embed "bookmarks" in your file. In an HTML or CSS file, you can embed a bookmark by adding a line like this to your file:

< !-- !Cool stuff happens here --> (note the leading exclamation point; it's necessary)

So, < !-- !General -->  becomes:

Coda symbols

So I combined that with what I learned about Clips:

For instance, activating a clip like (*) (where (*) is the selection placeholder) will wrap your currently selected text in a bold tag. Handy!

Coda symbol clip

I’m really trying to get the best out of Coda’s tools. I’m trying to bend Coda to my will, and make it more textmate-like for html and css editing. I still use textmate too, but there are benefits to coda when doing simple css/ftp/preview stuff. Being in one window sure makes it easier to ignore twitter.

Now to figure out how to import my textmate snippets/bundles into coda. I hear coda is looking into opening up that functionality in future versions. Yay.

OMG. Was that an ACTUAL blog post? YES!
