is there a possibility to create an new file from template using the mate terminal command?

mate untitled.html;osascript -e "tell app "TextMate" to insert "`cat ~/Desktop/template.txt`" as snippet true"

Or simply make usage of this tiny shell command:

Examples: (if tmate is saved in a folder found by $PATH) tmate ~/Desktop/My\ template.html tmate "$HOME/Desktop/My template.html"

or just

tmate

Hint: the escaping of double quotes inside of the template file is not necessary anymore. Will be done in the script.
