[TxMt] Recovering File Lost During TextMate Crash

[Charilaos Skiadas]

Sorry, no ideas about how to recover your text, but a couple of  
things to keep in mind for next time:
1. Quicksilver keeps its own clipboard, with history, so that might  
save things.
2. My understanding is that only the window on which the command is  
executed is frozen, other windows should work just fine.
3. Pressing ctrl-C should in principle stop the execution of the  
command, and restore control to the window.
4. The #textmate IRC channel is a good source of help in such cases.
