So, there you are, working on a project in TextMate. You have a project full of a gazillion files. Then, you notice that some text that appears in several files needs to be changed. You need to do a find/replace in those files, but you don’t want to do a “find in project” because it’ll take forever to go through all those files and change only the ones you want.

1. Select the files you want to change.
2. Drag them to the TextMate icon in the dock.
3. Do a Find in Project.
4. Save all files in project.
5. Close the temporary project w/o saving.

The files I need to change are usually all in one folder. So, it’s really easy to drag a folder to the TextMate dock icon, do the stuff, and close.
