I love HAML and SASS, they’re such beautiful ways of ways of writing HTML and CSS respectively. I saw Hampton do his (I believe first) presentation at RailsConf Europe 2006 in London last year with a can of Stella and no small amount of profanity! It was a fantastic presentation and I remember commending him on a good job whilst having a cigarette outside. I started using HAML pretty much immediately after that.
However, I’ve always been a bit annoyed that TextMate doesn’t have support for it. I’ve probably just not been keeping up, but I’ve now found that in the Macromates SVN repository there is a bundle that enables HAML support in TextMate, hurrah. The URL for this bundle is http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/Ruby%20Haml.tmbundle
All you have to do is go to your ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles directory and do a svn co http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/Ruby%20Haml.tmbundle and the support will be in TextMate. Well done Macromates and the guys at Unspace.

Do you know where I can find a similar bundle for SASS? I’ve been looking around on google, but haven’t had any luck. BTW, thanks for the directions for this bundle, I’m lovin HAML.

This bundle does not get selected for just .haml files, but also .sass files. However, the bundle does not currently appear to have and colouring for SASS syntax, which is a shame. I’ve not found any other bundle that does this either, sorry.
