When I say (in ruby)

`"#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/bin/mate" '#{p}'`

where p is the pathname of a folder, what appears in the project browser is that folder plus (hierarchically down from it) all its contents.

But when I open a folder using TextMate, directly, what appears in the project browser is just the contents of the folder; the folder itself is not in the project browser.

How can I make the former (`mate`) behave like the latter (TextMate itself)?

I’m not sure if it makes a difference, but I think you should use the `TM_MATE` environment variable instead. It points to `mate`.
