Thank you for providing a solution for the recent problems of the Python code in the Bundle 🙏. For now, I think I will close this in favor of the changes of commit https://github.com/textmate/latex.tmbundle/commit/54d6709ba450d341e0f3d01c930f900c115f8ba8. While the code in this pull request should improve the situation in macOS 12.3 and later, it would most probably make the situation worse for people who use an earlier version of macOS.

In earlier versions of macOS /usr/bin/python3 seems to also exist and point to a “stub” that downloads Python3, just like it does now. I mistakenly thought /usr/bin/python3 does not exist in earlier versions of the OS first. However, as I see it /usr/bin/python has two advantages over /usr/bin/python3:

Thanks, @sanssecours for having looked at this, and having provided an alternative way of fixing #190 instead…

Also, in general, many thanks for providing a very useful resource for everyone using TextMate and LaTeX on our Macs… is there a Patreon of Koffi I could contribute to?

Thank you for your kind words 💖.

is there a Patreon of Koffi I could contribute to?

I do not think so. I added a PayPal button to the readme a long time ago once, but removed it after some time. I already feel bad about not doing enough work here. At least in the current situation I can honestly state that I work on this Bundle in my free time without any payment 😅.

Having some kind words to someone that out of his kindness gives his time to benefit many people It is the least a decent person can do, really… it is a bit sad that the bar is so low, but then let's try to jump it a bit more often 😉

In any case, yes, I think the personal freedom that that state guarantees you is worth keeping… all the best!
