Okay, then the setting is not there (which is what we want).

TextMate

Read/write application settings, generally stored in ~/Library/ 
Preferences

It is for adding languages which is not there by default, yes. But  
default there are two dozen languages, includng PHP, and Perl.

The default bundles are in TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport (and  
TextMate likely to be in your /Applications folder)

The svn checkout can be done to any of the library locations.

Okay — try to go to the bundle editor and click the “More Bundles…”  
do you see the bundles there?

Some languages inherit smart typing from the Source bundle, so this  
should be enabled.
