Whether I launch textmate as:
mate
or
mate file.txt
Textmate eventually hangs and I have to do a force quite. I am running the same version of TM and Leopard as Tony.
The only time TextMate doesn't hang from the terminal launch is if it is already open in the Dock.

Hello,
I'm relatively new to TextMate.
When I try and launch textmate from the terminal (via 'mate'), textmate hangs.
Interestingly, if textmate is already open, this doesn't occur.
Eventually I have to force quite textmate. I am running Leopard (10.5.2) on an Intel Core 2 Due iMac.
Exactly what are you typing when you launch it, and how do you know it hangs?
Is it possible you are just typing 'mate' (without the quotes)? In which case TM opens but doesn't do anything. Maybe you need to type 'mate .' to open the current folder, or 'mate myfile.txt' to open a file?
I just tried mate . and whilst TM started it then went into application not responding, a force quit returned this to the terminal:
2008-05-16 11:44:06.624 mate[883:10b] Exception raised during posting of notification. Ignored. exception: 'connection went invalid while waiting for a reply' invoked observer method: '*** -[OakLaunchHelper didLaunchTextMate:]' observer: 0x1218a0 notification name: 'NSWorkspaceDidLaunchApplicationNotification'
I'm using
Version 1.5.7 (1464)
on

mate myfile.txt opens a new file, just fine.
