I was looking at the tmruby.rb file.

I have spend some time looking at the Run script and the tmruby file  
and basically understand what they are doing.  I don't think it is  
too hard to get the behaviour I want, and having a TM_MAIN_RUBY or  
some such variable as you have for Latex looks like the best way,  
particularly as this can be bound to a project.  Thanks for this tip.

My main frustration is not being able to click through on reported  
errors.   While I understand what the script is doing, I don't  
understand why the error produces different results when run from the  
terminal or within TextMate.

 From the terminal I get:

/Users/dave/Chips/DES/mediaUI/Classes/ui.rb:63:in `initialize':  
undefined method `readConfigW' for #<UI:0x11087cc  
@allowTransition=false, @keysFromFile=false> (NoMethodError)
         from /Users/dave/Chips/DES/mediaUI/Classes/os_gl.rb:32:in  
`initialize'
         from start.rb:34

but from within TextMate the HTML looks like:
<p id="exception"><strong>NoMethodError</strong>: undefined method  
`readConfigW' for #<UI:0x35b84c @allowTransition=false,  
@keysFromFile=false></p>
<blockquote><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td><a class="near" title="in ./Classes/ui.rb" href="txmt://open? 
url=file://./Classes/ui.rb&line=63">method initialize</a></td><td>in  
<strong>ui.rb</strong> at line 63</td></tr><tr><td><a class="near"  
title="in ./Classes/os_gl.rb" href="txmt://open?url=file://./Classes/ 
os_gl.rb&line=32">method initialize</a></td><td>in <strong>os_gl.rb</ 
strong> at line 32</td></tr><tr><td><a class="near" title="in /Users/ 
dave/Chips/DES/mediaUI/start.rb" href="txmt://open?url=file:///Users/ 
dave/Chips/DES/mediaUI/start.rb&line=34"><em>at top level</em></a></ 
td><td>in <strong>start.rb</strong> at line 34</td></tr></table></ 
blockquote>

The two differences are

1.  In 'top level' line in terminal just includes the file name while  
in the HTML it has the full path name in the url (and I can click  
through here).

2.  The lower level lines in terminal have the fully qualified path  
name, but the HTML is relative to the top level file (and clicking  
through just opens an empty window

Maybe the cause is the fork?

One fix would be to combine the top level path with the lower level  
paths when making the url to make it an absolute path.
