Cool - I guess the usefulness for me is limited as:
(a) All my projects are version controlled web apps (b) they all live in ~/Work/$appname/trunk (c) They're all rails or rails-y in directory structure (d) I tend use subversion to manage the state of my projects, so don't need tabs to stay open (e) I worry about leaving ._DS_Store files everywhere, so tend to stay out of the Finder
None of this means "project files are crap", of course, but any time I see a feature I'm not using, I get excited that maybe it could be useful :)
Anyone using project files in a similar environment?

Also, a project file will save the state you left your project in (as in which files are open in tabs), you can set project-specific $TM variables, and you can maintain custom groups so that your project can be organized in more ways then just the directory structure. I'm sure there's probably more too...

Sure ;)
I don't have to remember where I put the clients crap. I can click my saved folder and see a listing of projects I have on my computer... ;)

As an aside, is there any intrinsic benefit to using a project file vs. just moving to the directory (in which I live) and typing `mate .`?
Not looking to start a holy war, but I'm just wondering if I'm missing any project file goodness?

A Dashboard widget that listed your textmate project files? I have a saved search right now that lists all the textmate project files, and thought a widget would be nice.
If anyone's interested, I'll toss something together ;)
