i must be missing an obvious thing here, but whats the easiest way to find the path to the current document you are editing?
i know of "reveal in project" but the full path? i would expect a right click to bring up some way to find this.
interestingly running pwd as a command inside a doc returns "/"
using ^S to search, opens up a search bar. it would be neat if this were like a command input area ala vi ... to run commands in the cwd.
thanks!

doh!
thanks very much!
now is there was a way to "create textmate document here" - like an explorer shell extension in windows... when browsing a folder in the finder. (maybe this is a quicksilver thing?)

Cmd-Click the file name in the title bar. This works in a lot of applications, not only in textmate.

The easiest way to do this with vanilla os x is to open a new document in textmate, hit cmd-s, drag the folder you want to save this in into the save box (which will then change into that directory), enter a filename, hit enter. You can drag the 'proxy icon' of the directory as well (proxy icon = the icon in the title bar).
The easiest way to add a real 'create textmate document here' is probably with OnMyCommand, but there are other easy ways for sure. I have an 'open terminal here' context menu entry which I use with 'mate filename' to open new textmate files where I want. I need the terminal anyways most of the time, so this is more useful for me.
HTH.

Surely the easiest thing is to drag the folder onto the TextMate icon, so that TM opens it as a scratch project, and then to press shift+cmd+N to create a new file in project.

Well, but that takes forever if your folder contains lots of files and subfolders (say you want to create a new file in your home folder) :-)

True, true, but it is definitely a good approach for folders without many files.
Haris, who is now waiting for TM to load his entire home folder as a project and might have to restart TM :(

I use NuFile -- it pretty much fits that niche perfectly:

You can set up many types of new files w/ a template. It adds a `New File > ...` contextual menu item in the finder.
I likes it.
I likes it a lot, -steve
Hello, inspired by one user of the list, I have made a "Create Textmate document here" automator script, it can be installed in the contextual menu of the finder. When launched it asks for a filename and then creates a file in the place you called the script. It is actually done by opening it with mate.
It's very simple.
You can download the plugin here:

Hope it helps someone.

I love to quickly have the path of the current document in the scrapbook for to use it in Terminal, for example. An easy way is the command:
------- (v)None (^)ToolTip CopyPath ^-Opt-Cmd-P echo -n "$TM_DIRECTORY" | pbcopy echo -n $TM_DIRECTORY --------------------
