Opening files in applications from the command line

Editors SublimeText and TextMate come with nice CLI integration, Komodo by ActiveState does not, but it is not hard to achieve some level of integration.

The open command is great, you can actually open files or directories like so for the Komodo IDE:

% open -a /Applications/Komodo\ IDE\ 8.app/ <some file or directory>

The trick actually came from a tip on how to attach a file to an email for sending via Apple’s Mail.app. Please see the TIL on Mail.app
