Hello, I’m working on textmate 2 command that will process data from a file and insert some some information into the activate textmate document I’ve got the bulk of the job working pretty well except I’d like to ensure the data is allows added to the top of the file. Can anyone tell me how to ensure the cursor is at the top of the document before I insert my data?
Thanks for any help Gary
You can use the mate CLI;
mate --line 1:1 path/to/file.ext

Or do you mean you're working on a bundle and want to move the cursor in file from there?

In the "Bundle Support" bundle in Support/shared/lib/textmate.rb there's a go_to function, which uses the txmt:// protocol for the current file, or when a path is supplied it uses the mate cli.
This might get you somewhere :)

This isn't relevant to the original question
But if you have a bundle which outputs to TextMates "HTML window", you can also embed txmt://open/?url=file://[YOUR PATH HERE]&line=0 style links which can then act as document bookmarks
This is a really useful feature :-)

Just for the records, calling "$TM_MATE" with e.g. a --line argument w/o a file path will work on current file even when that file is untitled.
This is a “new” feature (2.0) and the go_to function hasn’t been updated to take advantage of this, thus it still falls back on txmt: for untitled files, but using "$TM_MATE" is more robust since a few other applications can claim the txmt: URL scheme.
Also, the path to the mate shell command is exposed to bundle items via the TM_MATE environment variable, so going via a shell interpreter it can be reached with: "$TM_MATE".

Is the “$TM_MATE” supposed to be accessible as an env var to scripts outside of Textmate bundles? The way I read this thread is that it was, but I get nothing when opening a new shell and running “echo $TM_MATE”. I have the shell support installed and have `export EDITOR="/usr/local/bin/mate -w”` in my .bash_profile.

No, TextMate has no control over your global OS X environment, only the environment setup for things launched from within TextMate.
