Notes

TextMate does not handle .rtf documents. So .rtf files will have to be copy-and-pasted into .sc text files. This is not a problem for classes.

Some controls (browse class file, etc) depend upon TM terminal command (see Help → Terminal Usage in TM menu)

CMD-period cannot be programmed in TextMate, so to stop audio output use CTRL-period instead

I’ve extracted the underlying code to allow control of SC.app from any command line application.
