I still have not figured it out, but this is interesting. If I save the file in BBEdit (space, backspace, save - no content change), it shows up in the Finder preview using the syntax coloring I defined in the TextMate bundle. But still no preview for other files with the same extension unless I re-save them. If I do the same save operation from TextMate, still no preview/quick look at all. Strange.

I assigned the file extension to always open with TextMate, but that did not help.

How do you get the Finder preview to show the syntax colored code as seen in TextMate? This seemed to work automagically for an older bundle I created. I'm working a new bundle and the Finder only shows the generic document icon.
If this is a new bundle, then it might for a type of file TextMate doesn’t claim responsibility for, so the system doesn’t know to use its Quick Look plug-in.
I’m not sure if it’s enough to just tell Finder to always open that type of file with TextMate, or if the app itself has to advertise support for it.
