[TxMt] More on MT Categories

[Steven W. Riggins]

Well there you go!

This is the first day I've looked at Ruby (working in Smalltalk, talk  
about crossing wires hehe) and XMLRPC so this stuff is all foreign.   
I'm going to poke around and see what I can implement for my own  
needs.  I'd rather not poke inside your bundle, so maybe I'll copy it  
and muck with it in app support or something (so I don't lose my  
changes later)  Oh yeah first day in TextMate also :)

thanks for the quick response!
