Edit in TextMate (Mac OS X)

extras

april 9


TextMate editor is the right-hand for every Mac OS X programmer, designer and power user. Most of the times we require to put the whole folder into a TextMate project for easier editing, or open a log file for a quick look. In order to do this we have to open TextMate and then drag the folder into it, or drag the file, since most of the times weird files are not associated with TextMate (most of the times you don’t want them associated either).

In order to avoid this, and have a speedier way to launch TextMate with the file, I’ve written a simple AppleScript to do the above for me. I’ve packed it into an Application and dragged it into Finder’s menu-bar, so it can be available on all windows.

You can download the application here: EditInTextMate.app.zip.

Save the file anywhere you want (I’ve saved it into /Application/AppleScript), and then drag it on the Finder’s bar. Mine looks like this:
