Unfortunately I don't have time machine setup... grrrr

Time machine, VCS, dropbox, backups.  :(  
I had to learn the hard way also.

Heh. That might explain the trouble I've had the few times I tried to
get completion working...  :-)  Good suggestion about the bindings and
cmd-shift-L.  I chose the bindings I did many moons ago to match the
Windows editor I had been using, without really bothering to see what
they were stepping on.

I seem to remember that I asked on this list around that time. Allan's
answer was that there was no other way, but that I shouldn't be mucking
about with the raw macro items anyway. I successfully ignored that
advice. :-)

First of all, thanks in advance for any help. This is an urgent issue-
I had been working on a CSS file all day, I saved it hundreds of times
throughout the day, everything was peachy, then all of a sudden text
mate froze up and when I re-opened textmate my file is now completely
empty.

I really need this file back tonight as it is due tomorrow!

Any help finding it would be awesome.

Thanks!

Hi Phillip,
when TM shows an empty file its very likely that the file IS empty.
Nevertheless I would check that with another editor... and then hope that I have a backup of this. (Time machine?)
Maybe there is a version in the trash bin?
Maybe something in the clip board?

Sorry, no better ideas...

Maybe its a good idea to turn on ?Atomic saves? (in the future) and run time machine in the background.
(Btw... as a 4 years + TM user I never experienced the disaster you suffer.)

Tom,

Thanks for the suggestions. I've already checked trash, hidden files,
clip board, etc nothing... and I do have autosave turned on, it froze
as I was saving manually. then the application quit, and when I open
the application again the file was empty. It shows that the last edit
was at the time of the freeze- its like as if textmate saved an empty
file over it. If I could get the previous verision that I saved about
10 minutes before hand I would be all set.

Unfortunately I don't have time machine setup... grrrr

One of the things I like the most about Dropbox is that it has a snapshot of *every single* save that you can get back with a couple of clicks from the website.
