I haven't updated my Bundles recently, so in short, if I want just to
insert the contents of
a file, I could create a drag command, give it a file type of code
and with: cat "$TM_DROPPED_FILE" it will insert the content.

The Idea though was to  not only insert the code snippet, but also
html-ify it with the TextMate > create HTML from selection/ Document
command.

Taking the original Code, and creating a new drag command, i tried
something like this:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby -rjcode -Ku
require "#{ENV['TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT']}/lib/doctohtml.rb"
require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/progress.rb"
code=`cat "$TM_DROPPED_FILE"`
unit = ENV.has_key?('CODE') ? 'selection' : 'document'
TextMate.call_with_progress(:message => "Creating HTML version of
#{unit}?") do
  print document_to_html( STDIN.read, :include_css =>
!ENV.has_key?('CODE') )
end

(which is probably wrong)




The default command would use a selection or Document, HTML-ify the input
and output a new document with the styles and HTML.

The Idea behind this, is that you could maintain your code snippets
nicely organized in a Folder, and once needed just drag them in, while
you write an article about how something is done with code examples,
using your preferred CMS.

I'd also omit the output of the style rules, and just create a new style
sheet for the language I need and put the style reference in my header.

This is based on Aaron Quints original Idea.
