TextMate book released

TextMate I’ve got a licensed copy of TextMate feeling awful neglected. TextMate is powerful to be sure, but I’m just so familiar with BBEdit. Sometimes to get into something new, I need a book. Thankfully, TextMate: Power Editing for the Mac now fills that void.

For an application with little interface cruft, TextMate has a lot of depth. You could almost say it’s deep, man. TextMate’s extensive online documentation is probably enough for most people, but there’s still something about a tactile object to read from when it comes to a complex subject. At $29.95, it’s a mere 14 cents per page. That’s a steal gentlemen.

If you do not want to fork out the $30 for this book, Amazon is offering it at $19.77. As Derik would put it: it's a mere 10 cents per page.
