[TxMt] browser preview command

[pascal@g]

hi Jonas
I was refering to this:

http://wiki.macromates.com/Main/Howtos#SafariPreview

... found in Textmate wiki.
I literally copied the shell script presented here, and inserted the  
path to it on my system, adding "sh" at front, which looked like this:

sh me/Documents/Scripts/browser.sh

cheers, Pascal
