Ruby on Rails Notes » Textmate http://railsnotes.com A code-heavy brain dump of stuff I come across working on Ruby on Rails projects including Models, ActiveRecord, Views, Controllers, RESTful rails, deployment, server stuff, etc. Sun, 29 Aug 2010 23:45:16 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 Make .rb files open with Textmatehttp://railsnotes.com/628-make-rb-files-open-with-textmate/ http://railsnotes.com/628-make-rb-files-open-with-textmate/#comments Thu, 21 May 2009 06:00:14 +0000 Melvin Ram http://www.railsnotes.com/?p=628

I’m not an expert at OSX. I’ve used PCs since I was 11… starting with Windows 3.11 and soon after Windows 95. One thing I was frustrated with was that .rb files are automatically associated with XCode. And I tried to right click and select “Always Open with Textmate” but it never seemed to work. Today I got a little mad and went hunting online and found this page:  http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2573/os_x_how_to_change_default_application_to_open_file_type/ and it works

Here’s the short version:

  • Click on a .rb file
  • On your keyboard press cmd + I (thats an ‘I’ like interesting)
  • Under the “Open with” menu, select Textmate and click the “Change All” button

Awesome!

Here’s how you install new textmate bundles:

mkdir -p ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/
cd ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles
git clone git://github.com/username/whatever-tmbundle.git Whatever.tmbundle
osascript -e 'tell app "TextMate" to reload bundles'

PS: I got this from: http://github.com/bmabey/cucumber-tmbundle/tree/master
