Making TextMate recognize .html.erb files

I'm using TextMate to edit some Ruby on Rails code. I noticed that when I edit the view pages (i.e. index.html.erb) it does not do syntax highlighting. It turns out this is because the Ruby on Rails TextMate bundle thinks that ruby view pages are .rhtml, which is the old Ruby on Rails format.

You can fix this by editing the Ruby on Rails language bundle.

In TextMate, select Bundles -> Bundle Editor -> Edit Languages.

This will open a new Bundle Editor Window. Click the arrow next to Ruby on Rails and highlight HTML (Rails). In the code that appears on the right, change the following

fileTypes = ( 'rhtml');

to

fileTypes = ('rhtml', 'html.erb');

Click the red X in the upper left corner to close the Bundle Editor Window.

Close any existing .html.erb files, when you open them again, they will have ruby syntax highlighting.
