I am new to TextMate. I have a bunch of lines and I am trying to sort them. I select them and use the Actions popup and choose Sort from the menu choices under Text, the text to be sorted disappears.
I tried to run the Sort command through the Filter through command and got the same result. Empty document.
I am sure that my newbieness is showing through but can somebody please figure out what exactly is wrong?

I assume you meant the "Sort lines" command from the Text bundle =)

just to make sure sort didn't rot: open a terminal, then type 'which sort'. it should reply /usr/bin/sort (or even /sw/bin/sort if you have fink installed). now do 'sort', type in some random lines, then press ctrl+D on an empty line (that is, EOF). check for consistent output (it should print your random lines, er, sorted). if it doesn't work, something got messed up.

Yes. Sorry.

I got both of those results. The usr/bin/sort and then the random lines sorted fine. But in TextMate it still burps.
I had installed a few bundles. I got rid of them. I started off a new copy of the program. No effect. Or rather same result.
I dumped the preferences. Started the program again. Registered and found the same result.
Thanks for the help.
