There is a bug - or at least I think it is a bug - in either Textmate or Spaces. I'll admit that I am a late convert to Spaces, since I find for most purposes the more traditional model of hiding applications suits me better. However:
If I have one Textmate document open on one "Space" and another open on another, the following happens. If I open a search window (either apple-F or apple-shift-F) in one space and then close it, when I try to open it again for the other document, the window appears in the first space.
I assume this is because spaces is re-opening the "old" search window, and thinks that I want it back where I last had it, but it is very annoying indeed.
Is there any way textmate could ensure that dialog boxes open in the "space" of the current document?
Best,
Nicholas

If you go to Preferences → Software Update and switch to Cutting Edge, there is a build where I explicitly tell the system to give sane window behavior for the Find window.
I have yet to go through all other windows and add similar code, so not all windows are yet showing the behavior which really should have been the default.

Thank you very much indeed! Works like a charm, as they say.
