Set TextMate as the default text editor on Mac OS X

How can I set TextMate as default text editor on Mac OS X?

I've tried it with

ln -s /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/Resources/mate ~/bin/mate
export EDITOR='mate -w'

but that doesn't work.

Solution

  • Just right (or control) click a file of the type you want to change and:

    "Get Info" -> "Open with:" -> (Select TextMate) -> "Change All"
