rspec users - May 2008 - TextMate bundle not using environment variable to find Ruby library

I finally found the answer to this and wanted to post it in case anyone 
else is searching for help on this in the Archives. 

I found instructions on this blog:

http://blog.dnite.org/2007/8/28/textmate-and-your-environment-variables/comments/7006#comment-7006

It shows how to set up a new environment.plist file here 
''~/.MacOSX/environment.plist'' with the correct PATH
definition:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
>     "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
> <plist version="1.0">
> <dict>
>     <key>PATH</key>
>     
>
<string>/usr/local/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin</string>
> </dict>
> </plist>
Don''t forget to log out & in for it to take effect.  Worked for me!
