With such a Services menuitem, I can just select some text that I want to deal with, and send it to TextEdit right away, and TextEdit does not need to wait for anything or anyone... Thats what happens with BBEdit at least.
So you are essentially looking for a shortcut for: "cmd-C, cmd-tab to textmate, cmd-N, cmd-V". Am I right? Perhaps an applescript could do that easily?
In the repository you'll find a nice OnMyCommand set written by FredB that implements this and several other bits and pieces. I only found it again by control clicking on some random text in Mail the other day. To use it you require OnMyCommand (which includes OMCEdit, a nice GUI way to view and create contextual menu items). See http:// free.abracode.com/cmworkshop/
Here's the list of contextual menu items provided by FredB's plist (taken from the accompanying README file). You can use any subset of these that look, err, useful.
Cheers, Paul ======================================================================= -Open in TextMate (pop it up on a file or folder) -New TextMate file here (pop it up on a directory; if you pick a file, it puts a new file in the same directory)
-New TextMate file here (alt)
(Same as Eric's version, except it creates the file first (with a dialog asking you for a name) then opens it (with open-a instead of mate). That means: The language/Syntax-Highlight is selected according to the file extension If a file with the same name already exists in the directory, it opens it without any change)
-New TextMate file here with Clipboard text (Same as above, but include the text in the Clipboard, if any.) -Open selected text in TextMate -Set type and creator to TextMate -Edit OMC commands in TextMate -List folder content in TextMate -List pkg content in TextMate =======================================================================
