That looks sharp, but I absolutely cannot get TM to open it!  Anyone  
else having problems?  Nothing appears in the console log, and it  
doesn't activate or appear in the list of themes...

That's a no go here as well.

Ditto.  I renamed it Slate.plist and tried restarting TM to no avail.

It's this line:

Delete the <<>> and you're good to go.

Same here. Very nice theme! Thanks.

Damn, it's a tie between slate and twilight. How to solve this?

Flip a coin:
1) Open new document.
2) Type: echo "`date "+%S"`%2" | bc
3) Text->Execute Line inserting result
0 is slate, 1 is twilight.

Or you can flip a physical coin

Here's a refinement, select these two lines and ctrl-R to make TM  
switch to the theme as well :)

themes=($HOME/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Themes/ 
Slate.tmTheme /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/ 
Themes/Twilight.tmTheme)
open "${themes[$(bc <<<$(date "+%S %%2"))]}"

(if you have Twilight in /Library or ~/Library, you'll need to change  
the path)

This must be the only editor I've ever used that can switch themes at  
random on startup ... could this be auto executed in some way?
Don't really know if I want, but it's a fun thing :)
Could one expand the list in some way and just increment that final  
digit there?

Like a cycle? You would need to store the value somewhere, e.g. in a  
file. It could be made… meanwhile I had some fun creating this script:

IFS=$(echo -e "\n\r")
themes=($(find /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/ 
Themes -name "*.tmTheme"))
rand=$(dd </dev/random bs=1 count=1 2>/dev/null|hexdump -e '/1 "%u"')
total=${#themes[@]}
open "${themes[$((rand % total))]}"

It picks a random theme from what's included by default.  
Unfortunately I see that a lot of the default themes have a plist  
extension, for which it doesn't work. So currently will only pick  
random from 4 themes, but I'll have that corrected in next build.

Also be aware, if the default theme has an equivalent in ~/Library,  
TM will ask if it should overwrite (instead of switching), since it  
thinks you're opening a new version of the theme -- for users with a  
lot of custom themes, it'd probably be better to just let it randomly  
pick from what's in ~/Library.

Nah, i have a lot of themes that i don't like installed, rather

do randomize from given list
list equals
	slate.tmtheme
	twilight.tmtheme
	magic workbench.tmtheme
	...
end equal

god, that is horrible code, even for pseudo :)
what was described was a way of having a toggle between two files,  
but i want a toggel between n files.

The stuff I showed used a bash array, so just do:

themes=(theme1 theme2 theme3)

You'll have to use modulo “number of themes”, which was the “total”  
variable in my last script.

So just making it:

>> themes=(theme1 theme2 theme3)
>> rand=$(dd </dev/random bs=1 count=1 2>/dev/null|hexdump -e '/1 "%u"')
>> total=${#themes[@]}
>> open "${themes[$((rand % total))]}"

Should work. Though remeber to quote theme paths properly, though ~  
won't expand in double quotes, so use $HOME instead.
