What's the recommended way of exporting templates you've created in one copy of TextMate for use with a copy on a different machine?

You can drag the bundle (from the bundle editor) onto the desktop. This creates a version that can be moved to another machine and double-clicked to be installed.
Alternative you can find the files in ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles and copy/sync the desired items.
(I assume this is about TM 1.x since 2.0 does not have templates)

Sorry, yes, this is 1.x. The process you describe fails when I try it. Here's the details: I'm dragging-and-dropping the template from a copy of TM 1.5.10 (1623) on OS X 10.6.8 to the Desktop, then copying it to my Mac mini running 10.7.4 and TM 1.5.10 (1631). Double-clicking the template gives the following message:
"Sorry, but it is not currently possible to install templates this way. You will need to manually move/copy the template file to the bundle in which it should be installed."
The manual method is probably the one you've just suggested. However, I have no Bundles folder in ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate. I have no folder at all there.

Try the entire bundle, given individual templates are not supported (this is because templates can depend on other files in the bundle, but such dependencies are not declarative, hence TM has no way to know which).

Is the template you want to copy one of the default templates?
