tracing a message to source.
the message in question is:
Type your password to allow TextMate to make changes.
the heart of the message is as i would see it is:
((((((( to allow ))))))))))) (((((( TextMate ))))))) ((((((( make changes )))))))))
i do apologize for the excess use of parentheses to emphasize.
i have been dealing with this situation for a while now. in a few forums.
any way , the words the code developer used to convey a message are:
" to allow TextMate to make changes "
what is text mate changing ???
it would be nice to know.
this situation revolves around the action of placing a textMate file in XAMPP htdocs.
I could chase answers over here and chase answers over there. etc.
but what would be really cool is if the code developer could stimulate some reference to a file or a process or some other lead.
are there any command line utilities that could show the last known file that executed action to the screen.
Thank you.

I suspect your htdocs folder is not owned by your user.
Try ls -l htdocs and see if you are the owner. If not, TextMate needs to escalate to root in order to save to a folder it does not have write access to.

TextMate wants to change the file you are saving, but it can't since it is not owned by you.
