No problem, its been a while since I worked on this, and the state of
latexErrWarnHtml.py has always nagged at me. I feel better having cleaned
it up now.
It seems a little odd to have -interaction=nonstopmode

Good point, the options were one of the last things I added, and I just
pasted in some default options without giving it much thought. I agree that
since the rest of the command needs -file-line-error style that it should
not be optional!
I am hoping that these settings will be stored in such a way that

They are stored in the com.macromates.textmate.plist file. Its not hard for
ruby or python to parse this the plist into something easy to work with.
I agree that supporting the existing environment variables is not an
