TextMate - Keep editor in focus when doing Run for Python scripts

I'm writing Python and I find it annoying that when I press Cmd + R, TextMate (1.5.11) would focus on the "running..." window, so I have to switch back to the main window to continue writing code.

Is it possible to prevent TextMate from doing that and run my code in background — or, would you recommend an alternative way (another bundle?) to run Python code?

Solution

  • I wrote a simple TextMate bundle to run Python, Ruby, PHP, Bash scripts without stealing focus from TextMate and released it on GitHub under the MIT license.
