You can just drop the -w. (--wait). This is an option to the mate command line tool to wait for the file to be closed. Using TextMate as an "EDITOR" requires the use of the --wait option so the Terminal will wait for the file to be closed before returning to a prompt. I use this all the time in the way I explained earlier. It should work fine either how I have configured it using the EDITOR environment variable, or configured for use by Git only as shown here: http://help.github.com/textmate/ -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
