CFTextmate.com

What is the purpose of this site you may ask? Well it’s pretty simple and since you asked you’re going to get the long winded version of it!

I’ve been a PC user for the past 10 years, I do web design and development. I got the urge to switch to Mac and actually took the plunge. I have my iMac 24″ and I’m never looking back, I’m officially hooked. I’m not going to get into why Mac is better than PC or vis versa, for some I just took to the Mac.

You still haven’t answered our question you say? You’re right, okay let me try again. There’s a great editor for os x and it’s called textmate. It’s pretty much the best editor I’ve ever used and I’ve pretty much used everything on the PC (Dreamweaver, Eclipse, Homesite, etc. etc.). The power of this editor lies in what it calls “bundles” which basically allows you to create and edit snippets, commands and tons of other stuff. Many of the bundles are language specific, such as PHP and Ruby on Rails. Out of the box Textmate has almost every bundle you could want, except for one, well atleast for me! It doesn’t have a ColdFusion bundle, nor has anyone else written one. Since I know I’m going to be doing a lot of CF coding I took it upon myself to create a CF bundle for textmate. I’m going to release for anyone to use, it can be downloaded on this website or on the textmate bundle repository.

Now that wasn’t too bad was it? I did warn you it was going to be a long winded post.
