TextMate: Creating New Project in Shell Instantly

Been using TextMate recently, really loving it like hell. There is a best part of TextMate that you can create a New Project instantly from your www folder. But first and foremost you got to create symlink to /bin.

To create a symlink, do this

sudo ln -s /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/Resources/mate /bin/mate

After you have created the symlink, change directory to your www folder for example

cd /opt/local/apache/htdocs/myproject

And run the command mate .

mate .

Congrat, new project has been created with Text Mate, just save it with shortcut key Ctrl + Command + S
