I've released version 2 of my screenwriting bundle.
release: http://ollieman.net/words/2006/03/ screenwriting_with_textmate_20.php bundle: http://ollieman.net/code/screenwriting/textmate/
---
I've tried to document it into the ground, which is the reason there are so many instructional videos. (I hope you finally understand what I'm doing, Haris)
From the release:
It may seem oblique that the reason I learned the first bit of CSS and XHTML I did was because late one night I was pissed off at Final Draft for crashing for the 3rd time in a row. I was convinced that there had to be a better way, that there had to be a way to write screenplays that didn’t hurt. I don’t remember why this propelled me to CSS, but it did.
Well, I can now firmly say that I have found a way of writing screenplays that doesn’t hurt. Never-mind that I had to build it myself, never-mind that the process took me over a year. I’ve found it.
I'd like to take a second and thank all of you for helping me with this. It's an amazing thing that I've managed to build for myself (at least) an end-to-end solution for writing screenplays that I actually enjoy using. And no small part of that is due to the users of this list, you have made this a learning experience that has resulted in a useful tool.
It's not just that TextMate is my new favorite app. It's that I feel as though Allan and the community around TextMate are genuinely working together to advance the quality of our collective writing environments; it's not just features and buttons, it's progress. And for that, I cannot thank you enough.

Very cool, wish I'd had this years ago in school.
