Here's what I'd like to do: On my webserver, I'll edit my .bash_profile to include and alias for 'mate' to a shell script. The shell script will do the following:

1. secure copy the argument file to my local tmp folder
2. open the the local tmp file with 'mate -w'
3. once I finish editing the file in TextMate and close it, secure

copy the new file to replace the file on the webserver

The blog entry at <http://chucker.mystfans.com/2004/11/23/remotely- using-see-subethaedit-cli-through-ssh.entry> describes how to use SubEthaEdit's commandline 'see' tool to do something very similar. It shouldn't be easy to adapt this to TextMate's 'mate' tool. (I haven't tried yet... YMMV.)
