Customizing TextMate

A while back we posted on the recently released book, TextMate: Power Editing for the Mac. Now the author of that tome, James Edward Gray II, offers a preview of the kind of stuff you'll find in his book in an article over at MacDevCenter.

Gray shows you how to customize TextMate by creating a bundle that turns it into a RPN calculator (the heavy lifting is done behind the scenes with Ruby). Bundles offer some amazing extensions of TextMate's core functionality, such as the BlogMate blogging plug-in we recently mentioned. If you've been curious about how all that cool TextMate bundle voodoo works (or you want a preview of the book), check out the the tutorial.
