I imagine that this message is a result of you trying to drag and drop the
pdf into an unsaved TextMate file: the command looks to insert a relative
path into your latex file but there's nothing kicking around when it asks
for the current location (ie of the latex file you're editing). Hence the
rather rude message. I guess this should probably be changed to present a
friendlier face in such a situation, but my ruby's (still)  weaker than it
should be...

Cheers,
Paul
