I would, at a guess, say you're probably saying "TextMate.app" (or
maybe without the .app part).

What you want is to specify the command line program mate or matewait
which runs separately and hooks up to the TextMate application when
invoked.

See: http://manual.macromates.com/en/using_textmate_from_terminal.html
(which is really about calling TextMate from other appliations)
