    <p>Ideally I wanted to use this in <a href="http://macromates.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">TextMate</a> but I didn't find any feature besides the <strong>Show Web Preview</strong> which is nice for the fact I can set the interval to update the page, but definitely doesn't work for watching any file and also apply syntax highlighting or any format.</p> <p>One neat example of what I wanted to achieve is to simulate exactly the same behavior as <a href="http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">CoffeScript Try Now</a> feature where you can type in one side and see what the file would look like in javascript.</p> <p>So ideally I would open my <code>.coffee</code> file and then run <code>coffee --watch</code> on terminal which will track any file change for that specific file, so I could just pop another window inside my text editor which will just keep updating the coffeescript <code>.js</code> generated file.</p> <p>like <a href="http://cl.ly/4n2F" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a>, where the window on the left shows the current file and the window on the right shows the file being watched with specific interval.</p> <p><a href="http://cl.ly/4n2F" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://cl.ly/4n2F/Screen_shot_2011-02-23_at_14.14.48.png" alt=""/></a></p> <p>I am not sure if I was clear enought, if not, please just let me know.. but basically I just want to see in real time what happens to my files after run a specific script but with syntax highlighting and anything else possible.</p> <p>I am just testing this <a href="http://www.kaleidoscopeapp.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">kaleidoscope</a> app, it is really nice the way the visualization works, no editing is possible neither syntax highlighting features though but it is really good, so it makes me think that something like this would be really nice:</p> <p><a href="http://cl.ly/4nZi" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://cl.ly/4nZi/Screen_shot_2011-02-23_at_15.19.39.png" alt=""/></a></p> <p>cheers</p>
