Hi,

I am trying to get this basic command to work. Here's my script:

tell application "TextMate" activate make new document end tell

I am getting an error message in German which loosely translates to:

"TextMate" has recieved an error: Error in the AppleEvent routine"

TextMate 1.x supports only very few AppleScript commands.

Do you have to use AppleScript in order to create a new document?

Because, you can do this: - e.g. as shell command: mate ~/Desktop/TEST.txt (this can be used inside of AppleScripts do shell) [to install the mate command go to Help > Terminal Usage] - e.g. as Web URL : txmt://open/?url=file://~/Desktop/TEST.txt

and some other ways.
