Hi --
A quick request for help...
I thought there might be someone knowledgeable here about an error that cropped up for me with the latest build (1372). I apologize in advance is this isn't the sort of thing discussed here or if I should bring this to another forum, but since it just happened NOW, minutes after my update, I thought this might be the place.
Anyway, I'm using GTDalt and the context command (shift-@) gives this error after the selection from the dialog:
/Users/mcg/Applications/Text/Textmate/TextMate.app/Contents/ SharedSupport/Support/lib/dialog.rb:138: warning: Insecure world writable dir /Users/mcg/Documents, mode 040756
Any advice. Did I do something clueless when I grabbed the latest build?

This seems to be a problem related to permissions on some of your directories, in particular your Documents folder. Are the GTDAlt files you are working with inside your Documents folder? What happens if you move them to the Desktop instead? What are the permissions on your Documents folder? You can find them selecting the folder and pressing cmd-I. What do you get if you type the following in a new TextMate window, selecting it and pressing ctrl-R: ls -la ~|grep Documents

Thanks for the reply.
I did find a way to get rid of the error (the GTDalt files are in Documents and I had to restrict permissions on the folder, which is fine), but I was baffled as to why this morning this error didn't appear and then as soon as I grabbed the recent build of TM, there was the error. I hadn't changed permissions in the mean time. So, it was a bit disturbing.
Thanks again!
