If you wish to activate TextMate from an ssh session you can do so by copying the rmate
(ruby) script to the server you are logged into. The script will connect back to TextMate running on your Mac so you should setup an ssh tunnel (as your Mac is likely behind NAT):
ssh -R 52698:127.0.0.1:52698 user@example.org
You can install rmate
via gem
:
gem install rmate
Updating to latest version can be done using:
gem update rmate
rmate [options] file
Call rmate --help
for a list of options. Default options can be set in /etc/rmate.rc
or ~/.rmate.rc
, e.g.:
host: auto # prefer host from SSH_CONNECTION over localhost
port: 52698
You can also set the RMATE_HOST
and RMATE_PORT
environment variables.
