This is a known problem with Launch Services. Basically, any new application (or new version of) needs to become "trusted" by the OS before other applications can "see" it. To make an application "trusted" you must double click one of its documents, then you'll be presented with an alert from the OS that you "are opening this for the first time" blah blah. From that point, the application is "trusted".
As a little advertisement, Yummy FTP works around this problem :-)
Hope that helps.
Best regards, Jason

A follow up...
Removing the cache stuff didn't solve the problem. Eventually things started working after I did a "open with..." on a file. I don't know if it depended on having removed the cache before. Just finding and opening the app (and opening files from within) didn't do it.
If it gets messed up again, I'll be able to test further. :)

My Fugu stopped finding TextMate. I don't know if where the prob is.
I've got Fugu 1.1.2rc1 in my Applications folder, and TextMate 1.1b1 in my Applications folder too.
Sounds like the Launch Services cache problem: http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2004-December/ 001774.html
