For saving a huge amount of time to someone, please make a correction in the following things:

  1. in blog post http://blog.macromates.com/2011/mate-and-rmate/ you say that we should use 127.0.0.1. No, it needs to be localhost.
  2. with host: auto in /etc/rmate.rc it doesn't work, but with host: 127.0.0.1 it works.
  3. TM should be open locally if you want to user rmate.

Thanks. //EDIT Removed part about ruby20 -- it works with ruby20 as well (it was a gem issue) and added 3.

As for 1) the blog post has since been fixed (this was a revert gone bad), thanks for letting us know.

As for 2) Use 'auto' to detect the host from SSH — this can only be used when you can reach your Mac from your server, if you have to use 127.0.0.1 then auto is not for you (i.e. you need to go via a tunnel).

As for 3) rmate connects to a socket on your Mac and cannot itself launch something. It might be possible to have launch services handle this (by installing a daemon that is woken up when someone tries to connect to a certain port), but I don’t think launch services is meant for launching graphical applications (when someone connects to a port), and it does have a few problems, so it’s not something I plan to pursue.
