label error when typesetting sectioning commands from the snippets

[piptin]

This would be the snippet for a subsubsection, the same goes for section, chapter, etc...

\subsubsection{${1:subsubsection name}} % (fold)
\label{ssub:${2:${1/\\\\\w+\{(.*?)\}|\\\\(.)|(\w+)|([^\w\\\\]+)/(?4:_:\L$1$2$3)/g}}}
${0:$TM_SELECTED_TEXT}
% subsubsection $2 (end)

The problem with this is that if you typeset with the label containing a non ascii character it gives an error, even with \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} loaded

This is the actual result of the snippet which gives an error when typesetting

\chapter{Hello wórldñ lâétex} % (fold)
\label{cha:hello_wórldñ_lâétex}

% chapter hello_wórldñ_lâétex (end)

is there a say to change it so that it eliminates the accent, or removes the character completely only in the label? Like this:

\chapter{Hello wórldñ lâétex} % (fold)
\label{cha:hello_worldn_laetex}

% chapter hello_worldn_laetex (end)

or this

\chapter{Hello wórldñ lâétex} % (fold)
\label{cha:hello_wrld_ltex}

% chapter hello_wrld_ltex (end)

You can use ${«var»:/asciify} to strip accents (new in TextMate 2).

I didn’t thoroughly study the existing transformation, but I think you can replace the label part with: \label{ssub:${2:${1/(\w+)(\W+$)?|\W+/${1:?${1:/asciify/downcase}:_}/g}}}

This will convert a sequence of non-alphanumeric characters to a single underscore and otherwise downcase and strip accents (asciify) the input.

Replacing the label with that one works! It doesn't give a compilation error in the labels now.

This is the actual result but I'm not sure if this is what you want it to do.

\section{THIS is greaáíôófè êÄSFDÑASDFÑ} % (fold)
\label{sec:this_is_grea'a'i^o'of`e_^e"asfd~nasdf~n}

% section this_is_grea'a'i^o'of`e_^e"asfd~nasdf~n (end)

I improved the asciification done by TextMate so it explicitly strips the diacritics (and combining marks). You should see this after next update.

Will you submit a pull request for the section snippet updates?

[piptin]

I think the sectioning snippets should be updated, but why a pull request? Isn't a pull request meant to take something out?

[sorbits]

A pull request means a request for pulling in changes from somebody else’s fork of the repository (LaTeX bundle).

See https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests for more details.

So basically I was asking if you will fork/clone the LaTeX bundle, make the desired changes, and then submit a request for us to integrate those changes into the main version.

Sure thing!
