Software engineering notes

motivation:
I just discovered the blogging bundle in textmate. It works great, but I was a bit confused about how to get started.

references:

• http://blog.macromates.com/2006/blogging-from-textmate/

prerequisites:

• you need to have a WordPress blog (or any blog that uses the MetaWeblog API)

steps:

• launch textmate
• from the Bundles menu, select Blogging
  
• select Setup Blogs from menu
  
• in the file that opens, enter your blog’s name and the url for it’s xmlrpc endpoint
  
  
• save and close that file
• create a new file, and, optionally, put some text in it
• go back into the Bundles—> Blogging menu and select Post To Blog
  
• when prompted, enter a title for your blog post, and then your WordPress username and password (3 separate prompts).
  
  The bundle will then publish the contents of your file as a post to your blog.
