Hi all,

Does anyone know how to arrange on the Mac so that if I: (a) see a file reference in a Rails log file (see below for example) that I could then: (b) somehow highlight and hit a hot key combination such that that little application/helper then:

(c) opened this file up in TextMate and displayed that line number

…extract…

./script/…/config/…/vendor/plugins/exception_notification/lib/exception_notifiable.rb:94 :in `log_error’

…

Tks Greg

TextMate Footnotes does something similar to what you're asking for.
It won't solve your problem but it might get you closer.

For hot-key combinations, you might need to write an app that
registers a Mac OS X Service.
