Does anybody know if there is a way to launch Dreamweaver from the terminal in the same manner textmate is launched by simply typing: mate file/path ?
thanks

You can use the standard open command (the mate thing is a special command installed by TextMate, it's not standard behaviour for most apps).
open -a DreamWeaver file/path
would open DreamWeaver assuming the application is actually called DreamWeaver.app (not Adobe DreamWeaver.app or whatever)...

thanks, so all i did was create an alias called 'dw' in my .bash_profile and can now call it up by saying: dw file/path
-thanks again
alias dw="open -a Dreamweaver\ 8"
