[TxMt] How to create new untitled doc from another process.

[Peter Jaros]

I would say

$ osascript -e 'tell application "TextMate" to make new document'

but that doesn't seem to work properly.  However,

$ osascript -e 'tell application "TextEdit" to make new document'

works for TextEdit.  Methinks this is a TextMate bug.  Allan?
