Well, don't then ;-)

Listen, I don't want to start a thread about the virtues of TeXShop  
and what everybody has been able to pull of with it and what not. I  
love TeXShop and what Dick has done with it over the years. In fact I  
still use it for some of my other writing needs in TeX, but the truth  
of the matter is that in general I prefer TextMate for _writing_ and  
that should suffice. It's all about choice, right? Besides, the  
problem here lies not with TextMate but with TeXniscope.
