[TxMt] Re: state of open/closed folders not being remembered

After trying various things I've managed to change the state of open/closed
folders.  Here is what I tried:

1. delete the .DS_Store files (in the directory being opened or it's parent
or the children).  And close projects in TextMate and quit TextMate and
restart.

2. Open the directories in Finder using List view; toggle the directories
to open/close them.

I don't know which of these was actually effective.

There is also the Finder> View Menu > Show View Options dialog which has
settings that might be relevant.
