Evans Thompson's personal annotations on this page
Thanks to a post on Lifehacker, I found out about the It’s All Text Firefox plugin that lets you edit any text area in your favorite editor.
From the comments on the plugin page, some Mac users have had issues with getting it to find their editing applications, and it is still in beta, so your YMMV.

The trick is to point at the binary and not the application folder.
For example. TextMate.app is just a folder. You need to point to
the executable at this location./Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin
To do this, you need to get past the application's folder.
When you are setting the preferences, you need hit the
key sequence of Command-Shift-G to target the binary within
the Application's folder.Great plugin!

/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/bin/mate is what worked for me
