Sorry that should have been:
ruby -e 'puts File.exists?(ENV["TM_SUPPORT_PATH"] + "/lib/tm/ executor.rb")'
If TM_SUPPORT_PATH is pointing correctly to your svn checkout of the Support directory, and that checkout is also up to date, this will return true.
I've got 30 years of programming experience. If I'm having this much trouble after following the directions in 5.7 and especially 5.7.4 to the letter, how do less experienced people deal with these problems?
Why doesn't Textmate simply set these preferences out of the box and run without this much fiddling. AquaEmacs works without anything special. SlickEdit works without anything special. XCode works out of the box. Why is TextMate so fiddly?
TextMate also works out of the box, but you've elected to install prerelease code via svn. Most people do not encounter these problems because they just use the bundles that are shipped with TextMate.

I might not have bought it if it didn't compile C or C++ code out of the box. It is advertised as a programmer's editor. I haven't found many programmer's editor that don't do the basic things a programmer's editor do, such as compile code with basic tools. The instructions made it appear pretty easy to update and adding the new C bundle was trivial. Only after pouring through the list here did I discover that the Support directory needed to be updated, and even after following the directions exactly, you now tell me that an essential subfolder isn't there. How would I know that? I mean, I'm grateful for your help, but this shouldn't really be so difficult to track down the source of an install error and a path/directory error.
How is this supposed to work, if there are no problems? When I open a simple C file and press Apple-R, it says something about not being able to build with XCode. Is there some way to just build and run more simply?
BTW, I did just download the latest C bundle and Support folder from the SVN. (And yes, it does say that my support folder is in /Library/Application \ Support/...) Thanks.

This only happens with the OLD C.tmbundle which is shipped with TM. Open the Bundle Editor, go to C, and won't see the command "Run". Correct? The OLD C.tmbundle uses the command "Compile single File".

Yes, I see Compile Single File. I downloaded the C bundle from the SVN, so how do I get the "new" bundle?

Like this (in Terminal):
mkdir -p /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate cd /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate
mkdir -p Bundles cd Bundles svn co http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/C.tmbundle C.tmbundle
cd /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate svn co http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Support Support
I found the problem. I wasn't paying attention and I downloaded the C.tmbundle directly into the TextMate folder, rather than the bundle subfolder. Thanks a lot.

Disable the XCode Bundle. Does it work then?
