Alternative bundle command for e (http://www.e-texteditor.com) or TextMate.
Replace YOURAPIKEY_HERE with a valid API key -- you can find it on your Settings page (http://snipplr.com/settings/).
Changed the command to allow selection of language. (Thanks, Tyler!) Also it was unnecessary to escape entities when posting to Snipplr, so that caused problems. Please let me know if you have any issues with or suggestions for this command. If you're using TextMate, you'll need to alter the path to CocoaDialog, and you might as well use an environment variable for the API Key.
2/2/2007: Fixed a bug that prevented posting snippets with no tags. Languages are now sorted alphabetically.

Is this currently working?
Tried it in TextMate with my API key and correct path to CocoaDialog, but it isn't working. I'm not really knowledgeable with Ruby or TM bundle development, but I'll poke around with it some more when time allows.
Thanks for sharing the work on it. When I first installed the official TM bundle, I wanted it to mimic the functionality of the stock 'Paste Online...' by using the current line if nothing is selected. Found that the script wasn't using STDIN, so I searched and found yours.
