I did a quick Google to find out what Tinderbox is, and this application does not appear to support external editors, nor is it Cocoa, so our “hacks” (like Edit in TM) does not work with it.

One user basically has a copy/paste macro to move the content: http://www.eastgate.com/Tinderbox/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1267305035

I suggest you contact the Tinderbox authors to request support for external editors (e.g. via the ODB Editor Suite).
