[TxMt] Help getting Started...

[Matthew Murphy]

Hi All,

Apologies if this isn't the right place to post this questions!

I have recently installed textmate on the advice of 'Ruby on Rails Tutorial Learn Rails by Example' : http://railstutorial.org/chapters/beginning#top

I am up to the part where you open a file for the first time using Textmate with: mate Gemfile

This works and opens up the relevant file but all of the code is black - there is no differentiation between comments, variables etc it is just a page of plain text.

I have tried changing the themes but that simply changes the background colour vs the text colour but doesn't help distinguish between the different code elements.

In the tutorial everything is highlighted as per a proper code editor but I just cannot find how to do this - please help!!

I am sure it is something incredibly simple that I am not doing but I've watched some tutorials and searched through the help and on Google but still no luck.

Any help will be very much appreciated!!

Thanks

Matt
