FWIW, CSSEdit is a pretty strong app in this regard, were it not for the poor auto completion in the app, I would probably take the time to learn it.

If you have CSSEdit you can

1. Open the CSS file in its editor.
2. Open the HTML file in its previewer.
3. Choose Edit in TextMate… to (re)open the CSS file in TextMate.
4. Edit the file in TM. Every time you save in TM, the CSSEdit

previewer will update.

Recognize that the saves you do in TM will *not* save the CSS file to disk; they will only "save" to the CSSEdit window. You'll have to periodically save the file from within CSSEdit.

Wow, very nice to know, that is probably perfect. Seems like a lot of apps to have to pull one thing off that is previously done in a small plug in within a browser though :)

Thanks so much, this is a solid method, I will look into it.
