How Alex Payne Uses TextMate

Payne says "My only hesitation was that TextMate was getting to be practically (although hyperbolically) abandonware. Thankfully, this fear was assuaged by a recent update over the Thanksgiving holiday. It lives!"

I can't find any reference to such an update - according to VersionTracker, the last update was 1.5.7 on 10/26/07.

Not sure about the update, but the TextMate mailing lists and IRC channel are very active. TextMate 2.0 is in the works. It's hardly abandonware.

I noticed that, too. Perhaps he is referring to "Cutting-Edge" updates? I'm on build 1436 (Minor Updates) and 1496 is available now.

Ah, that's it - I hadn't noticed that option in the Preferences. But yes, turn on Cutting Edge updates in the Updates preference, and now I get offered 1496.
