Turn of Tabs in Textmate
God it took me a long time to find this again ...
If you want to you can disable tabs from the command line. Make sure TextMate isn't running, and then type:
defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakProjectWindowShowTabBarEnabled false
into the terminal. To bring tabs back, you'll have to:
defaults delete com.macromates.textmate OakProjectWindowShowTabBarEnabled

Textmate Blogging Bundle Key Binding
I wanted to make blogging with markdown and textmate as easy as possible. I struggled to do this, though its very easy ...
Textmate has a number of ways of doing key bindings. The thing I wanted to do was bind the menu item File | New From Template | Blogging | Blog Post Markdown. You cannot do this using System Preferences | Keyboard instead you have to do this in the bundle editor. Here you have to drill into the blogging bundles templates, and select the markdown template. Then assign a key binding to this (I chose ctrl meta option m).
In addition I modified the template text to include the line
Format: Markdown
